Bell, Who Loved "Watching the Show"

After observing for so long, Bell already had a good idea of the Train's combat capabilities.

To be honest, he was somewhat disappointed.

Perhaps because the nature of evil spirits is that of spiritual entities? The power of the "Train" is completely disproportionate to its size.

If it were an ordinary Magical Animals with a body as large as Train, it could probably cause a small earthquake just by stomping its feet.

As for the ' Train ', it would have to crash into the ground with all its might to achieve a similar effect.

Moreover, while the "Train" did not inherit the advantages of large-sized creatures, it perfectly inherited their corresponding disadvantages.

The ' Train ' is really bad at maneuvering! Its attack speed isn't fast either.

Bell thought that even an ordinary person, as long as they could overcome their fear, could probably play hide-and-seek with the "Train" for a while.

Of course, this is assuming that the flames of the "Train" are excluded.

The flames burning on the Train still posed some threat. But that was all.

As for Bell, he already has enough knowledge about the "Train", so why doesn't he take action and instead watches Yomi fight alone?

(ω)

He just didn't want to make a move.

Unlike his younger sister, who only enjoys acting and not watching plays, Bell enjoys both acting and watching plays.

So, he's really enjoying it now!

If he weren't afraid of corrupting his younger sister, he would have already taken out all sorts of food and drinks.

"Shanna, are you thirsty? Would you like a Coke?"

Shanna looked at her Gege strangely, wondering what Gege was up to now.

However, Shanna wasn't in the mood for cola right now; the girl's entire focus was on the battlefield before her, and she couldn't wait to join in.

"No, Gege."

"Shanna said."

Yomi, completely unaware of Bell's intentions, had already stealthily moved to the side of the "Train," ready to strike.

Of course, it's fortunate that Yomi doesn't know what Bell is thinking right now, otherwise she might have given up on killing "Train" and instead used her last, all-out strike to slash at that damned Bell!

Taking advantage of the Train turning its head in the opposite direction, Yomi seized the rare opportunity without hesitation and leaped up with all his might.

The sound of footsteps on the ground caught the Train's attention. It quickly turned its head towards the direction of the Yomi. However, it was all too late; it could only let out a futile roar.

Holding the Lion King aloft, Yomi knew that the Train was dead.

With a powerful slash, Yomi aimed her longsword at the "Train's" neck. At that moment, she felt her swordsmanship had improved once again. Never before had she made a strike as smooth and exhilarating as this one.

Clang!

A dazzling spark flew, and to Yomi's incredulous gaze, a semi-transparent shield appeared at the blade of the ' Lion King,' blocking her sure-fire strike.

"What are you doing, Bell!?"

Looking at Bell standing on top of the "Train" behind the shield, a feeling of betrayal and anger instantly filled Yomi's heart.

After spending so many days together, Yomi truly considered the Bell siblings as her friends. As for the task assigned to her by the Countermeasures Office to monitor the Bell family, Yomi had long since forgotten about it.

In Yomi's view, there was no doubt that these so-called important figures were being overly sensitive again. Yomi didn't know much about what Bell's parents did every day. But Bell and Shanna really were in Japan for vacation, just as they said.

Although their trip somewhat challenged Yomi's worldview.

But now, looking at the boy standing on top of the ' Train,' with one hand behind his back and the other holding Wand, Yomi wondered if he was dreaming.

How could Bell be in league with evil spirits?!

How could Bell possibly have blocked that knife?!

Before Yomi Quan could sort out her thoughts amidst the chaos, she plummeted towards the ground with nowhere to hold on in the air.

"Am I going to die here today? I'm so unwilling to accept this. I haven't even had a chance to talk to Kagura much yet."

Seeing the flames about to burst from the ' Train's' mouth, Yomi closed his eyes in despair.

As an Onmyoji, Yomi had long known that one day she would die in a battle against evil spirits. But she never expected that day to come so soon and so abruptly.

"Shut up!"

Sensing the immense magical power brewing within the mouth of the "Train" beneath his feet, Bell pointed his Wand downwards, unleashing a Magic Power Impact that struck the "Train" on the head, knocking it to the ground.

The flame that was about to burst from the Train's mouth was naturally swallowed back.

"Oh, Sister Yomi, don't misunderstand, I'm not telling you to shut up."

Bell gently waved his Wand at Yomi, and Yomi's falling speed suddenly decreased, slowly landing on the ground.

Bell glanced at the slowly disintegrating Shield Charm in the air and secretly wiped away a cold sweat.

Although he had deduced from Yomi's movement speed that the opponent's attack power should not be low, that previous strike still took him somewhat by surprise.

It's important to know that although Bell didn't use his full strength when he unleashed that Shield Charm just now, he still poured a considerable amount of magic power into it.

The result was that Yomi almost broke through his shield with a single strike!?

Bell felt he needed to reassess the combat capabilities of the Onmyoji.

"Bell, what exactly are you planning to do?"

Yomi, realizing that things seemed to be different from what he had imagined, turned his attention back to Bell.

In any case, being alive is always better than being dead.

"Actually, it's like this. Sister Yomi, as you know, this is the first time I've ever seen an evil spirit."

Bell swung his Wand to the left, unleashing another Magic Power Impact that struck the side of the Train's forelimbs, causing the Train, which was trying to get up, to fall to the ground again.

"Therefore, I am very interested in this evil spirit. I wonder if Sister Yomi could part with it and give it to me for research?"

You're so annoying! Just behave yourself!

Annoyed by the unruly "Train" under his feet, Bell channeled magic into his right foot and stomped down hard.

Unlike the previous two times when he held back, this time Bell was determined to teach his opponent a lesson. So, with a deafening roar, the entire head of the "Train" was embedded in the ground.

"Oh, Sister Yomi, that wasn't referring to you, don't misunderstand."

Bell waved his hand, dispersing the dust that had been stirred up, and spoke nonsensically as if he had just stepped on an ant.
