*****

After I agreed to Vali's request to spar, we teleported to a deserted island somewhere in the sea. Vali said that he found this island and claimed it as his which I think is too arrogant of him.

I don't know if we are still in Japan, but the island is small with no trees whatsoever. There is only sand and grass on this island, which is perfect for sparring.

I stepped forward to feel the grass, and I found it quite lush. Even if we stumble and fell to the ground, I bet the grass would be enough to serve as a cushion.

Vali arrived after me and he looked around the island while saying. "Nice, isn't it? I found it when I flew around the world."

I just crossed my arm and looked at him. "Quite nice, now I am thinking of holding myself back to not destroy this island."

"Don't joke with me, if you hold back, then you will die you know? I want to test you in full strength." Answered Vali as a translucent blue wing appeared from his back.

So that's one of the Longinus, divine dividing? That certainly will make the fight a little bit harder. If I hit him, then my strength will be halved. Although I mastered Youjutsu under Magari, to be honest, it was the weakest one of my techniques.

I don't know if my Nenekirimaru could cut his dividing, but it's not hurt to try it.

I summoned my Nenekirimaru and held it in my right hand as I rested the blade on my shoulder. With my left hand opened, I gestured for him to come to me while smirking.

My fear has shrouded my body since I met Vali, now I used Kyoka Suigetsu and am ready to handle Vali's attack anytime.

I saw Vali grinning and rushing towards me while gliding. My real body has moved first while I keep the fake stay in the place while taking a stance to defend against Vali's attack.

Vali punched my fake, and in an instant, his grin disappeared from his face as my Fake disappeared in a cloud of black smoke that appeared again to reveal another fake a distance away from Vali.

I watched him as I keep walking to avoid a stray attack of his. Without delay, Vali glid towards my second fake and punched it on the face, only to disappear with a black smoke again. That exchange lasted a few times until Vali finally just stood in one place while spreading his hand.

I could feel a demonic energy gathering on his open palm, and it was shot as a ball towards my Fake which keep appearing and disappearing. Vali was smiling and laughing as he shot the demonic ball towards my Fake.

"Come on! Is this the extent of your strength? If that's true then I am disappointed!"

He was provoking me to come out of my hiding place. Well, I think that this is enough warm-up so I sneaked behind his back and try to cut his wing with Nenekirimaru.

My Nenekirimaru meet Divine Dividing and to my surprise it could withstand my slash although I could feel Vali's energy pouring out from his body because of the slash.

Vali quickly reacted to my attack and pointed his hand towards me. I jumped backward and disappeared from his sight as I shrouded myself in Fear again. But Vali shot a demonic energy bullet towards my location and one of them was coming straight in my way.

With no other choice, I slashed the bullet with Nenekirimaru and revealed my location to him.

"Found you!"

With a fast speed, Vali rushed towards my location and throw a punch towards me. He is the fastest one that I fought so far, so I was a bit late to defend against his attack and could only dodge it by jumping backward.

As I jumped backward, I extended my left hand and created a fireball using Youjutsu, and threw it at him. He was surprised by the sudden fireball and sidestepped to dodge it. That gave me enough time to disappear from his sight again and coated my sword in Senjutsu.

This time Vali was still rushing at my previous location as I came from his side and slashed him. The slash connected to his right arm and wounded him slightly. Without waiting for even a second, I sent a second slash aiming for his stomach. Vali quickly turned in my direction and used his wing to parry my second attack.

I kept the slash going as I had a big smile on my face. This is the first time that someone close to my age could fight this well. Kuroka is strong too, but Vali with his Divine Dividing is stronger than her.

Because of my excitement, that's where I make my first mistake. While defending using his wing, Vali throw a punch towards me which I instinctively blocked using my left hand. As his fist connected with my hand, I saw him smiling and I heard a sound.

[Divide!]

At that moment, I could feel my strength leaving my body instantly. I quickly kicked Vali away from me and jumped backward and looked at him.

"Amazing! With just one divide one of my wings was almost full. You are the first person of my generation who managed to fill my wing this much, maybe the Sekiryuutei will give me as much, but you are amazing!" Vali shouted while smiling and looked at me with eyes full of spirit.

I opened my right eye and looked at him with the same look too while having a big grin on my face. I rested the blade of Nenekirimaru on my right shoulder and said.

"Naturally, I am the next lord of pandemonium, the young master of East Youkai Faction. It's natural if I am strong."

We grinned towards each other before Vali suggested.

"Shall we fight seriously now?"

I swung my Nenekirimaru to the side and answered. "I thought you will never ask me."

With a smile on his face, Vali floated to the sky before stopping around 5 meters above the ground.

I feel a big energy gathering around him until finally it merged with his body and a white armor donned his body with his blue wing behind his back.

["Balance Breaker. Divine Dividing: Scale Mail!"] I heard two voices emerge from him and I could feel his gaze behind his helmet.

"Your turn." Said Vali.

Well, I could not refuse him if he show me his Balance Breaker.

I gathered the Natural energy that presents in the atmosphere and used it to coat my body, enhancing my strength and speed as well as my Fear. Not only that, I also shrouded my body in Fear, a cloud of black smoke appeared around my body and made my presence blend into the environment.

Not only that, I called upon Telos Karma's power and make the probability of Vali hitting me to zero. For some reason, when I pulled all of my power, a blue Haori always appeared behind my back. The Haori had a Fear Kanji written in white ink.

With that, my preparation was finished and I smiled at Vali as I announced the name of my technique.

"Shin Kyouka Suigetsu."
