Yuto Ijika realized that he had made a mistake. He shouldn't have engaged in close combat with Drake.
Although his appearance was that of a fourteen-year-old boy, Yuto Ijika had completely turned into an Impurity. His physical strength and cursed power level were simply incomparable to those of an exorcist.
That's why he was able to defeat the Twelve Guardians, but Drake was different.
In all aspects, Drake was far above Yuto Ijika. The difference in combat skills and experience was even more worlds apart.
Smashing down, holding Yuto Ijika's wrist, his other hand hammered three punches into Yuto Ijika's abdomen.
Yuto Ijika's eyes widened. Even with his completely Impurity-transformed body, the severe pain transmitted by his nerves made his mind go blank.
When Yuto Ijika regained consciousness, he saw Drake's fist, wrapped in flames, punching over.
Yuto Ijika flew out while rolling. When he stood up, everyone saw a terrifying scene.
Drake's punch had hit Yuto Ijika's face. Logically speaking, swelling or even wounds would be normal.
But on Yuto Ijika's face, apart from the scorch marks burned by the flames, there were only some strange cracks.
Yuto Ijika touched his face, and just touching it caused fragments to fall off. It was as if what was on Yuto Ijika's face wasn't skin, but a layer of mask.
"As expected, it's almost at the limit to face you with this body! It wouldn't be good to suppress my power any longer."
Drake didn't feel any surprise. He had known the essence of Yuto Ijika for a long time.
Assuming a stance, Drake said, "Then take out your hidden abilities! Don't let me just kill you like this!"
Yuto Ijika laughed loudly, saying, "That's right, you're just too great! That's why I want to get you!"
Saying this, the cursed power on Yuto Ijika surged out, and the rising gale made Enmado Rokuro and Adashino Benio, who were watching, had to raise their arms to block it in order to breathe smoothly.
What was in front of them was no longer a human, but clearly an Impurity. Apart from not having grid-like stripes, Yuto Ijika revealed his true form, which was no different from an Impurity.
"Yuto, you guy, have you completely turned into an Impurity?" Enmado Rokuro said painfully.
"Elder Brother...!" Adashino Benio also covered her mouth, looking unable to accept it.
Drake frowned, saying, "You two, don't tell me you still think there's a way to save this Yuto Ijika!
He became an Impurity not when his body changed. From the moment he abandoned his humanity, he was already an Impurity that had to be exorcised."
Yuto Ijika clapped, saying, "That's right! Rokuro-kun, Benio, do you know what I hate most about you?
It's that even now you don't have the resolve to kill me! You don't still have the illusion that "there must be some misunderstanding," do you!"
Drake said coldly, "Have you finished talking nonsense? Then obediently be exorcised by me!"
The aura and magic power on Drake's body intertwined, turning into flames wrapping around his body. Then Drake instantly disappeared from the spot, approaching Yuto Ijika in the blink of an eye.
"So fast!"
Yuto Ijika immediately understood that he wasn't the only one hiding his strength. Drake had also never used his full power.
The moves that Drake used at this time were very different from before.
After the battle with Acnologia, Drake saw that his abilities needed to be integrated.
Magic, martial arts, cursed arts... Drake knew that he would experience more worlds and learn more abilities.
But just stacking abilities would only increase his power to a limited extent.
Connecting the abilities together, making them produce multiple or even exponential increases, was what Drake had been doing all this time.
And Yuto Ijika was lucky, becoming a test subject for Drake's results.
Dragon Blood Mode was a move that Drake had developed when he had just awakened his dragon power, allowing the dragon power to flow through his body, greatly increasing his power and gaining a certain degree of self-healing ability.
Drake combined it with Qilin Power, producing a new ability.
The Qilin Power amplified the dragon power several times, flowing through his body, causing more obvious dragonification phenomena to appear on Drake's body.
Fine dragon scales grew on Drake's cheeks, and his pupils turned into vertical pupils. The bones of his hands were deformed, like the claws of a beast.
"Secret Technique - Dragon King Martial Body!"
Compared to another move that combined several abilities, Dragon King Martial Body was born from the combination of two abilities that enhanced Drake himself, and could also incorporate suitable enhancement abilities in the future.
Drake, as if transformed into a humanoid Tyrannosaurus, violently raised his fist and sent Yuto Ijika flying.
Yuto Ijika squatted down, shattering a raised piece of ground, enduring the severe pain and rushing back.
Drake revealed a disdainful expression. The power of Dragon King Martial Body was as excellent as he had expected. And the current Yuto Ijika had no room to resist at all.
Raising his hand, Drake's palm, which had almost turned into a dragon claw, directly grabbed Yuto Ijika's arm, directly twisting it out of shape.
The pain made Yuto Ijika's expression distorted, but he revealed a smile.
In Drake's shocked gaze, Yuto Ijika's crushed arm melted like it was melting, turning into several ink-colored chains that wrapped around Drake's body.
Drake frowned. His body had become stiff for some reason, and the magic power in his body had also stagnated.
That's not right! When using a new move, shouldn't there be an invincible period for the newbie to experience? How did it backfire on him?
Drake ignored the embarrassment of the backfire. What Drake couldn't understand now was how Yuto Ijika was able to restrain him?
Just then, a black shadow appeared behind Drake.
A pentagram opened under Drake's feet, and the black shadow spread to Drake's feet, like a quagmire, and Drake was also being swallowed little by little.
Drake then remembered that wasn't this the trap that Kankuro had set for Tsuchimikado Arima in the original story? How was it arranged for him!
Yuto Ijika, who had lost an arm, walked over, restoring his human appearance.
"Kankuro, you finally arrived! I bet my arm to restrain him."
Kankuro nodded, saying, "What do we do next? What's in his body isn't cursed power. There's no way to kill him directly!"
Yuto Ijika smiled, saying, "It doesn't matter. As long as we seal him, preventing him from hindering us is enough!"
Drake laughed, saying, "Do you think this thing can really seal me?"
A sizzling sound rang out, and the chains wrapped around Drake's body began to collapse. Some of the cursed power-formed chains turned directly to ashes under the flames on Drake's body surface.
Kankuro and Yuto Ijika's expressions changed. This trap was originally set up for exorcists. Exorcists who fell into it would have all their cursed power drained, so they naturally couldn't resist.
But it wasn't so easy to restrain Drake, a Dragon Slayer Mage. If Drake was allowed to break free, the result of the battle would be unpredictable.
Seeing that Drake was about to break free of all the restraints, suddenly Drake seemed to see a pair of eyes full of light open, and then the ink-colored chains, which had already broken most of them, suddenly connected again, and the restraint force became even stronger.
"You are...!"
Before Drake could finish speaking, his entire body was completely submerged in darkness.
