Chapter 357: Don’t Kid Yourself

The Jack-o'-Lanterns shrank back when they noticed the growing storm of pink Sakura petals that fluttered around me. Being the intelligent monsters that they were, they quickly turned to flee.

Unfortunately, they weren't smart enough. Otherwise they would have retreated long ago, instead of waiting until I finished casting my spell.

Swinging my sword, I unleashed the blizzard of razor-sharp Sakura petals in all directions. Despite their preternatural speed, the Jack-o'-Lanterns found themselves consumed by the expanding cloud of pink petals. A few of them spun around to counter the petals with their scythes, defending themselves with consummate skill. I could see them hacking down swathes of pink Sakura petals with their deadly weapons, cutting out a safe zone.
