He killed his teammates!?

"Let's surrender, Master."

Izawa's words caused everyone in Seiji's party to fall silent for a moment.

"Earlier, you used such underhanded means to prevent me from surrendering. Why are you suddenly saying this now?" Kanna looked at her Spirit-branded Retainer.

"That's because earlier, I believed that it was a bad idea to surrender without even trying. But now, I believe that it will be too dangerous to remain here. For Master's safety, we should surrender now and leave here immediately," Izawa spoke seriously.

It was quite evident why Kanna's loyal Spirit-branded Retainer suddenly changed his mind. It was due to the way that the enemies who attacked them had died!

The enemies had all become nothing more than withered corpses that were frightening to behold. It was only natural to think that continuing to participate in this tournament would be extremely dangerous.
