"That feeling again..."
Once all this sand had drained away, something terrifying might happen.
Shinji had that thought every time.
"Let's end this quickly!"
Shinji did not underestimate Saibote. He immediately used Domain Extension to turn his domain, Three Thousand Cursed Realms, into a thin veil that enveloped him.
