Naoya Zenin took a defensive stance, the cursed energy enveloping him through Falling Blossom Emotion continuously repelling every shikigami that rushed at him.
Unlike Simple Domain, which confined its user to a fixed area, Falling Blossom Emotion allowed him to move freely while it was active, giving him a greater advantage.
Dagon also recognized the means Naoya Zenin was using to counter his domain's sure-hit effect and had already devised a way to kill this somewhat troublesome jujutsu sorcerer.
He increased the number of shikigami, sending them lunging at Naoya Zenin without pause.
Naoya Zenin hurriedly retreated. He had also seen through Dagon's tactics: the swarm of shikigami would obscure his vision, allowing Dagon himself to launch a surprise attack and break through his Falling Blossom Emotion.
But ultimately, whether Falling Blossom Emotion or Simple Domain, both were merely domains for the weak. Naoya Zenin had no intention of relying on such measures for long.
Crossing his arms, he successfully blocked Dagon's heavy punch and sneered. "You worthless octopus. Did you think Domain Expansion would put you on the same level as human jujutsu sorcerers?"
"Let me tell you something. As long as my cousin and Satoru Gojo are around, you rats will never have your day!"
Naoya Zenin continued backing away, evading the attacks of Dagon and his shikigami while hurling taunts.
"Damn human!" Dagon lost control of his emotions and roared.
Seizing the opening, Naoya Zenin activated his cursed technique, swiftly closed in on Dagon, and launched his first counterattack.
Dagon was sent flying by a punch, but he remained unhurried. He had already caught Naoya Zenin's moment of vulnerability, and countless shikigami had surrounded that damned human.
In the brief instant of his counterattack, a piranha had already bitten into Naoya Zenin's abdomen, leaving a bloody mess.
