Running Away

I drew my sword, and so did my two companions. This time, we just needed to break the chain, and everything would be done, although it would be challenging.

Kenzo jumped in front of us with his large body; I gave him the first slash he blocked with his giant sword.

Hana and Izumi also attacked simultaneously; after pushing me, she cut the bodies of the two and then beheaded me.

"You guys are fragile."

I laughed, to his surprise. However, I was behind him and broke the chains binding Yaeko's body.

"How is that possible?"

"Just a simple trick," I said with a shrug.

I just used my deadly sin skill ability to create an illusion; Hana and Izumi held Yaeko's limp body as the gate that had previously appeared had disappeared completely.

"You two take Yaeko to safety; from here, I alone am enough to defeat this guy."

"We understand."

"The demon sword... so Yaeko made you her knight."

"You could say that."
