Am I... a Pervert?

"What happened up ahead?"

Stopping the Hundred Demons, Yae Sakura called out loudly.

Yae Sakura was wearing a cloak that completely concealed the fox ears on her head, so the demons could not see them.

The power Yae Sakura possessed was pure spiritual energy and unique crimson cherry blossom sword aura, without the slightest trace of demonic energy.

Combined with the shrine maiden outfit Kikyo wore, as long as she did not reveal her ears, she looked like an ordinary shrine maiden.

"Just a mere shrine maiden, and she dares to stop us?"

"The girl behind the shrine maiden smells so fragrant. Eating them will surely replenish our strength."

"A mere shrine maiden sees us and not only does not run, but even asks us questions? How amusing!"

When the demon horde saw a shrine maiden leading a weak human girl blocking their path, they immediately burst into laughter.

Was there something wrong with this shrine maiden's head?

There were so many demons here, yet she had actually dared to block their way.

"So they really can't be reasoned with..."

Yae Sakura shook her head speechlessly as she watched the demons preparing to pounce. It seemed... she could not spare them even if she wanted to.

"Xia Ji, take this! Do as I taught you earlier! Protect yourself!"

As she spoke, Yae Sakura took out an [SU-22 Grenade Cannon], which looked enormous in Xia Ji's hands, and handed it to her.

The SU-22 Grenade Cannon was one of the worst two-star weapons in Yae Sakura's inventory.

It was a weapon Bronya had discarded long ago, and Yae Sakura had never thrown it away.

Although the [SU-22 Grenade Cannon] was only a two-star weapon, Bronya had not had many weapon choices in the early days. It was still usable as a transitional weapon for Bronya.

Of course, now every Bronya battlesuit had what could be considered a fully upgraded weapon.

Though Bronya's [Dimension Breaker] battlesuit... only had the weapon officially recommended for beginners.

"Ah... yes!"

Xia Ji hurriedly took the SU-22 Grenade Cannon. She was still quite shocked by the weapon.

Yae Sakura had taught Xia Ji how to use it on the road earlier. It was simple: just pull the trigger. Even an ordinary woman like her could unleash an incredibly powerful attack.

The recoil was simply too great. Xia Ji could not endure it after firing two shots.

Yae Sakura had actually wanted to give Xia Ji the type of weapons Kiana and Kallen used... pistols. But Xia Ji could not hit a target at all, and low-star firearms were far too weak against demons.

She could not use high-star weapons, so this SU-22 Grenade Cannon would do.

Yae Sakura's account inventory contained many weapons and stigmata, and after leaving the game, she was not limited to using only katanas.

It was simply that katanas suited Yae Sakura best, and she used them best.

But... looking at so many demons before her...

Damn it, where was my Italian cannon?!

A five-star weapon, [Tyr's Broken Arm], suddenly appeared in Yae Sakura's hands.

Aiming at the Hundred Demons before her, she activated Tyr's Broken Arm's active skill. Without charging, she directly fired a charged cannon blast.

The Hundred Demons before her were instantly blown to pieces!

However, because Yae Sakura was not Bronya, she did not receive any weapon bonuses and could not fully bring out this type of weapon's attack power.

Thus, not many demons died, though quite a few were injured.

Then... Yae Sakura immediately put away Tyr's Broken Arm, drew Cherry Blossom Blizzard, and charged forward.

Falling Cherry Blossom Slash!!

Without giving the demons any time to react, Yae Sakura rushed into their midst and unleashed a full Falling Cherry Blossom Slash.

Five enormous waves of sword aura shot out in succession, slicing more than ten meters ahead.

The final wave of sword aura, also the strongest strike of her basic swordsmanship, directly locked onto the Jorogumo with a woman's upper body and a spider's lower body!

The sword aura instantly passed through the Jorogumo's body, then continued cutting for over five hundred meters... before finally dissipating.

"You..."

The Jorogumo looked at Yae Sakura as if she wanted to say something, but before she could... her body split into two pieces.

"Chief!"

"Revenge the chief!!"

Seeing the Jorogumo die so miserably, the demons not only failed to retreat, but instead crazily swarmed toward Yae Sakura.

It seemed the Jorogumo had been a very good leader in their eyes.

The remaining several dozen demons instantly surrounded Yae Sakura, but she instead sheathed her Spirit Blade and calmly glanced at them.

Yae Sakura's action undoubtedly completely enraged the demons. Each used their greatest abilities to attack the hateful shrine maiden before them.

"Bloom! Mark of Killing Intent!!"

Suddenly... countless powerful waves of sword aura erupted from Yae Sakura's body. Centered on Yae Sakura, within a hundred meters... sword aura filled the sky!

All the demons around her were reduced to chunks of flesh...

Yae Sakura stood amid the demons' corpses, drenched in blood, yet not a single drop belonged to her.

Looking at the corpses around her, a sickly smile naturally appeared on Yae Sakura's face. She looked at the demon blood stuck to her finger.

Then directly put it into her mouth...

Wait...

What... am I doing??

Yae Sakura suddenly came to her senses...

What was she doing? Why had she instinctively made such a move?

Then she looked toward Xia Ji in the distance and found her staring in dumbfounded shock, even looking at her with a trace of fear again.

Could it be? Am I... really... a pervert??
