Only then did Shuhei Hisagi finally notice something was wrong.
At some point, a Hollow several meters tall had appeared behind him and Hotaru Kanzaki.
Clearly, this Hollow could turn invisible and conceal its spiritual pressure.
That was why it had been able to lurk behind them unnoticed and launch its attack.
After learning the truth, both Shuhei Hisagi and Hotaru Kanzaki felt a chill of lingering fear.
If Harry had not noticed the Hollow and blocked its attack, Hotaru Kanzaki might very well have been killed in the ambush, while Shuhei Hisagi beside her could also have been badly wounded.
Without bothering to apologize to Harry, the two quickly considered the situation.
Judging by this Hollow's abilities and spiritual pressure, its strength clearly fell outside the selection criteria.

Harry twisted sideways, spinning as the Asauchi in his hand traced a silver arc beneath the moonlight.
There were no flashy techniques, only pure
