Just a not so smart pawn.
Thrown out to test the waters.
These nine people are the real trump cards.
And...
The Sword Eater Group!
The Ten Blades!
The Sword Eater Group is obviously an organization, and the Ten Blades in front of us are probably just so of the key mbers within the organization, the real decision-makers are definitely not these ten individuals.
Which ans that the mastermind is still behind the scenes.
This made Uesugi extrely worried.
Not just because he still had no idea what was happening.
But also because it seed that without much effort, he had fallen.
Although the appearance of the four uncles Persimmon Kaki, Amakasu, Usami, and Naoe was a surprise, Uesugi was clear that relying solely on these four would not be sufficient to cope with the current situation.
Even if it were Jason...
He might also be inadequate, right?
After all, one against nine is too great a disparity.
It’s not like going to a al where one more person simply ans an extra pair of chopsticks, and it doesn’t matter at all.
This is battle!
One more person can affect the entire battle situation.
Let alone nine more!
What should be done?
Uesugi pondered.
But in the end, he simply shook his head.
As an ordinary person, he had no solution.
Now he could only pray that Jason and the four uncles Persimmon Kaki, Amakasu, Usami, and Naoe would win.
As for what cos after?
It can be discussed after winning.
If they couldn’t even get past the current crisis, everyone would die here, and all talk would be futile.
What Uesugi thought was clearly the sa as what the four uncles Persimmon Kaki, Amakasu, Usami, and Naoe were thinking.
After Naoe nodded slightly, Persimmon Kaki, Amakasu, and Usami were about to step forward to assist Jason.
"Wait!"
"This is my fight!"
"No one else can intervene!"
Jason spoke up to stop them.
His voice was loud and resonant.
It carried an air of unquestionable authority.
Imdiately, the advancing Persimmon Kaki, Amakasu, and Usami were taken aback.
Then, the three of them, looking at the figure burning with flas, showed admiration in their eyes.
No matter what kind of person Jason was, just his respect for the battle alone greatly improved their perception of Jason.
As the leader of the four, Naoe nodded slightly.
A good young man.
That was his assessnt.
Uesugi was also full of surprise.
This Family Head, who was still completely in the dark, really wanted to tell Jason to think of the bigger picture, but when the words ca to his mouth, he couldn’t utter them at all.
Young man, go and face death!
Who can stop a young man heading towards death?
Strangely, such words rose from the bottom of the Family Head’s heart.
Hu Qiandai’s eyes shone with excitent.
She looked at Jason with a more serious expression than ever before.
Only Hui Lijing was different.
The female detective, who had spent considerable ti with Jason, noticed at once that although Jason’s eyes appeared to be looking at the nine enemies, upon closer inspection, he was almost looking at the... swords of the nine people?
Could it be...
Purification?!
As the term from Jason’s mouth occurred to her, the female detective’s mouth twitched.
But wisely, the detective did not speak up.
She kept silent.
As Jason’s friend, she ought to extend a little more ’leniency’ to her friend.
His side was infected.
So was the enemy’s.
Nine swordsn releasing their aura without reservation stood solemnly.
Before they arrived, they had scoffed at the recent news of the ’Sword Saint’ coming into being.
What Sword Saint!
It couldn’t be that easy!
As swordmasters themselves, they knew better than anyone the difficulty of becoming a Sword Saint.
It’s not just about Talent.
Nor is it sothing that can be achieved by sheer hard work alone.
It also requires a certain fate!
Along with countless coincidences!
But now, when they saw Jason, the so-called ’Sword Saint’ from the rumors, they felt the rumors might be true.
Facing the aura released jointly by the nine of them, he still stood unwavering.
Facing the imminent draw of their swords by the nine of them, he still insisted on fighting one against all.
Such a person, even if not a Sword Saint.
Must be a true warrior.
In the presence of such a warrior, the nine showed their respect.
And the leader among them even praised softly—
"As expected of the revered ’Sword Saint’ Jason."
The voice was not too loud or too low, audible to everyone present.
Sword Saint?!
Persimmon Kaki, Amakasu, Usami, and Naoe shook in shock, looking at Jason with astonishnt.
Uesugi and Hui Lijing were sowhat confused.
No one noticed.
When the title ’Sword Saint’ was ntioned, Hu Qiandai, already with shimring eyes, began to breathe more rapidly.
Had the person she anticipated arrived?
