Chapter 218: Doto Kazahana Is Dumbfounded: Your Partner Is Koyuki Kazahana?

Why hadn't they arrived yet?

Just then, Deva Path Pain stepped in front of Kazahana Dōtō and slowly raised his arm.

"Don't kill me."

"I... I surrender!"

"I'll agree to everything you want."

Once he realized how vast the gap between them was, Kazahana Dōtō begged for mercy.
