Ryoshu stood amidst the bustling street, his keen eyes catching a glimpse of a young woman darting past him like a fleeting shadow. Her movements were swift, leaving behind only a blur of motion, making it impossible for Ryoshu to discern her features in the brief moment she crossed his path. Perplexed, Ryoshu furrowed his brows, his mind racing to identify the mysterious figure. "Could she simply be an ordinary passerby?" he mused, the question lingering as he mentally sifted through faces, searching for any semblance of familiarity.However, before he could dwell further on the enigma of the girl's identity, she pressed on with unwavering determination, her destination clear.

They formed a ring around their targets, their eagerness palpable as they awaited the opportunity to strike and seize their prizes. Yet, in their fervor, they remained oblivious to a fundamental truth.In the realm of absolute power, distinctions dissolve; all stand on equal footing beneath the looming specter of impending doom.

The battlefield erupted into a frenzy of chaos, and arrows filled the sky like a relentless hailstorm. Each shaft, sharp and deadly, seemed to possess a mind of its own, seeking its target ruthlessly. Among the chaos stood Kenzo, a towering figure of resolve amidst the tumult, commanding even amidst the overwhelming onslaught of projectiles. Amidst this flurry of death, Kenzo's focus remained unbroken, drawn to a single arrow amidst the barrage – Ryoshu's. With a steely determination, Kenzo tracked its path through the chaos, his eyes locked onto its trajectory with an almost unnerving intensity. There was an unmistakable aura surrounding Ryoshu's arrow. A sense of purpose and precision set it apart, capturing Kenzo's undivided attention amidst the chaos.In a practiced motion born of years of discipline, Kenzo reached deep within himself, his hand finding the familiar grip of his second sword, the Lightning Sword.

"I thought I could easily survive with all these useful skills," Ryoshu mused as he sat alone by the flickering campfire, reflecting on his abilities and the many challenges he had overcome. His journey had been long and arduous, filled with trials that tested his endurance, resourcefulness, and sheer will to survive. From treacherous mountain passes to the dark, creature-infested forests, each step of his path had been fraught with danger. And yet, he had always believed that his extensive skill set—honed through countless battles and relentless training—would see him through any situation that arose.However, all that changed the moment he crossed paths with Kenzo. The man's presence was like a storm, intense and overpowering, and it quickly became evident that Ryoshu was not as prepared as he had thought. Kenzo moved with a fluidity and precision that Ryoshu could only dream of, his every action exuding confidence born of true mastery. In their brief encounter, Ryoshu felt expos

His entire face was shrouded in fabric, tightly wound around his head, leaving only minuscule apertures for his eyes and nose. He stole glimpses of his surroundings through these narrow gaps, the only solace in an otherwise suffocating situation. Amidst this concealment, he found a strange comfort. He seemed invisible to those around him. It was as though his struggles were insignificant, lost amidst the chaos and tension that permeated the room. This feeling of insignificance was exacerbated by the looming presence of Kenzo, whose formidable figure demanded the attention of all present.Kenzo’s patience wore thin as he stood there, waiting in vain for a response from the group. His frustration was palpable, etched onto his features as he finally addressed them with a mix of irritation and determination:““If you persist in your inaction, I will have no choice but to pursue each of you individually. And let me make this clear: no leniency will be granted. Ineffective hiding will only
