"The technique's range is roughly twenty meters!"
"You must have gone all out just now, so the highest temperature you can control is probably around seven hundred degrees!"
Kenjaku laid it all out calmly, looking confident from beginning to end.
"Damn it!"
Riko Amanai's eyelids twitched, her heart filled with vigilance.
After just one exchange, he had basically figured out her technique's capabilities.
This pressure felt exactly like facing Teacher Yuki!
"If that's the case..."
Kenjaku smiled at Riko Amanai. "Then I just need to attack you from outside that twenty-meter range!"
"Although I'm better at close combat, my long-range attacks aren't bad either!"
Kenjaku pressed his palms together. "Blood Manipulation: Piercing Blood!"
A stream of blood shot out instantly, flying toward Riko Amanai like a sharp arrow.
"Star's Lament: Heat Breath"!
Riko Amanai immediately activated her technique, and the scorching air instantly evaporated the incoming blood!
"Oh, right. Blood's boiling point is only around one hundred degrees. Blood Manipulation won't work!"
As if suddenly realizing this, Kenjaku revealed a malicious grin.
He stomped hard on the ground, shattering the concrete road into chunks of stone.
Then, like kicking a soccer ball, Kenjaku sent the rubble flying toward Riko Amanai.
The whistling stones carried terrifying kinetic energy, crashing toward her like cannonballs.
The crucial thing was that concrete had an extremely high melting point and boiling point. Even if Riko Amanai pushed her technique to its limit, she could not defend against this kind of attack.
She could only dodge while searching for an opportunity to get closer to Kenjaku.
Only by getting within twenty meters of him could she use her technique to inflict damage!
However, Kenjaku was far too cunning. He gave Riko Amanai no chance to approach, constantly kiting her and using long-range attacks to drain her
