The Imaginative Kei

Clang!

Damian's move was countered by a force so strong that his new sword was sent flying!

"Ah, sorry. I said I would match your pace, but I reacted instinctively…"

However, against common sense, the one who appeared to be shocked wasn't Damian but Kei, there was even a mix of confusion added to it all.

'Is this also a part of his ability?'

The moment Damian rushed at him, Kei felt so much bloodlust that he instinctively replied with his best counter-attack. The sword itself wasn't that dangerous, but the intent behind it was completely different.

'It's almost like he really wanted to kill me.'

Unlike him, Damian's face was completely calm as he went to pick up his sword. It definitely didn't look like someone who held a grudge against him.

To begin with, there was no reason for anyone to want Kei dead. There were only two explanations that Kei could think of aside from special abilities.
