Hearing her words, Rahu smirked. "It is…of course your little sister!"
"...My sister? What are you talking about?" Silveria tilted her head in confusion; her expression seemed genuine.
Seeing this, Rahu raised his eyebrows in amusement. "You didn't know?"
"I do not have any sisters; I am the sole daughter of my mother. Are you sure you aren't mistaken for someone else?" Silveria said, her voice incredulous. She was looking at Rahu with questioning eyes.
Even the Origin Realm cultivators standing behind stopped, their expressions turned strange.
"...Guys, is that lad insane?"
"I think he is."
"Sister of the young miss? I'm sure he is making this up to get under ski—" Before he could even complete his sentence, he felt a chill down his spine. A pair of icy blue eyes looked down on him, promising brutal torture.
"I dare you to finish those words," The said cultivator hurriedly backed off and hid behind his friend, not daring to meet her eyes.
"Pff–! Good boy, at least one among you three is making out here alive for having brains! Rejoice!" Rahu laughed out loud. But inwardly, he was shocked, seeing her reaction. He didn't think that was a fake one…Did that cow scam him?
Hearing his words, Silveria frowned and finally moved. Rahu immediately raised his hand and spun. Taking a fighting stance.
Silveria was in front of him in an instant, clenching her fists, and she threw a punch. Rahu grinned; he too lowered his body and met the punch head-on!
BOOM!!
A terrifying shockwave spread throughout the hall, shaking the walls.
"No way…you really blocked that," Silveria muttered, taking a step. Rahu didn't pursue her; he just stood there with a smile on his face. This punch wasn't aimed to harm him; she was just testing him.
"Do you believe me now?" Rahu asked, hearing him. Silveria finally nodded.
"I do but you sho—"
BOOM!
A fist connected to her face in the blink of an eye, sending her flying across the chamber. She smashed into the walls, hard. A playful voice echoed.
"Bitch, who do you think this daddy is? Pull that trick again and see if you can keep that mouth running."
"Bastard!! How dare you attack young Miss!?"
In an instant, a sword flashed toward his neck. Aiming to decapitate his head. Rahu instantly ducked and stepped back. Black lightning cackled around him, and he disappeared, leaving an afterimage.
Of the three retainers Silveria had bought, two of them were middle-aged men, and one of them was a young man in his early 20's. Also, he had spoken about the 'skirt' earlier.
Before he could react, Rahu was already behind. Aiming to smash his head into pieces, Rahu pulled his hand. Just as he was about to punch the young man, one of the middle-aged men had already moved.
CLANG!!
Rahu's punch was met with a sword, and Rahu had to admit. This man was a strong one, as the sword's metal sent shocks to his shoulder. With a flip, he disappeared and reappeared a few steps away.
In that single exchange, Rahu knew he couldn't take the three of them head-on, or it would be certain death for sure.
But…who said he was alone? The dynamic in the room changed once more as others prepared to join the conflict.
"Azaria! Now!" The moment his words echoed, the temperature of the room dropped to freezing degrees.
"Glacial Veil: Ice Wall!"
Dense ice ripped through the chamber's entrance in an instant. It filled the whole room, sealing the three Origin Realm cultivators in the corner.
"W-What!?"
But this was only the beginning, with Rahu as the center. A terrifying dome expanded, its force tearing through the space, enveloping everyone present.
"N-NO!? M-My meridians!? What is going on!?" The middle-aged man who had attacked Rahu earlier screamed in horror, as his lifelong cultivation was being jammed and blocked.
"That ice that separated them slowly thinned, and with a dull blast it broke into small pieces. Wetting the floor below.
"Kill them."
Rahu ordered without even glancing back, then added casually, "Oh, and give that brat a quick death. I did say I'd go easy on him."
"ARGHHH!! ST—!!" One by one, the girls entered the chamber and rushed towards the poor lambs.
The three men staggered back, with fear practically written on their faces. Their cultivation was sealed, their meridians locked, and moving even a step under the pressure Azaria was exerting felt like carrying a mountain on their backs.
The first died without warning. As a small knife passed through his throat. His body dropped before the scream could fully leave his throat. The shadow behind him twitched. Thalia stepped out.
The second tried to speak, but frost had already climbed up his legs and snapped him apart with a dull crack.
The last one fell to his knees and dropped dead as a hand ripped through his chest.
Rahu turned around, and with a smirk, he stepped towards Silveria. This had all happened in a few seconds. So, he had made sure to separate her from them as far as possible. But,
From the walls, a monstrous wave of energy ripped through the space. Rahu smiled as he saw a beautiful woman walk out from it, her hair swaying. Her blue glowed like a sun, with stars shining in it.
She looked at Rahu coldly, stretching her hands. A sword materialised in her palms. It was shining; the pressure radiating from the sword crashed down on Rahu. His feet shrunk in the ground, the gravity around felt like it had just tripled.
Her power…was no joke. The current Rahu couldn't take her in a one-on-one fight, that was sure. And even the [Eclipse Domain] was activated. It seemed her power hadn't even dimmed in the slightest.
Looking at him, she raised her sword. The message was clear: she wanted a fight. And she would have it even if he didn't agree with her.
Her silver hair fluttered behind her back. She slowly stepped forward, turning her head, and she looked at the corpses of her former teammates, who lay bloodied on the ground.
Taking a deep breath, she swept her gaze across everyone present, from Rahu to each of his women, one by one. And spoke in a cold tone.
"None of you is leaving here alive today. My blade will see to that." Saying that, she raised her sword and muttered.
"Starry Sword Arts: Double Star!"
