You Like Night Runs Too?

He hurriedly dodged to the side to avoid the tentacles, a look of distress on Shi Hen's face.

Theoretically speaking, his power has been completely suppressed, and he absolutely cannot defeat this clumsy bear.

He didn't even have a weapon in his hand.

Let's stall for now and see what the Herrscher of Erosion wants to do.

Having made up his mind, Shi Hen moved forward instead of retreating, instantly closing in on the brown bear's side.

"Aww!"

With a roar, the brown bear slammed down its paw, which was the size of a human head.

Naturally, it was impossible for him to be hit by such an attack. Shi Hen dodged the palm strike with a slight movement, causing it to crash heavily to the ground and crush a pile of grass.

Just as the brown bear's attack landed, the boy, who had been ready all along, swiftly kicked the brown bear's joint with a side kick.

With a thud, the brown bear lost its balance and fell to the ground.

Using minimal force to achieve maximum effect.

If the location is found accurately enough, even a small amount of force can move a heavy object.

"Aww~"

Seemingly enraged by the attack, the brown bear rolled to its feet and pounced on the boy with its mountain-like body, its claws scrambling wildly and its dark red tentacles also striking, determined to tear the human in front of it to shreds.

Even without the power of Honkai, Shi Hen's honed combat skills are far superior to those of a beast that only uses brute force.

So he moved with incredible agility, dodging the brown bear's attacks and instead drawing its tentacles to extend and spread.

Finally, after another attack, the tentacles stretched to their limit, stopping a foot away from the boy and unable to advance any further, even causing the brown bear itself to trip and fall to the ground.

Without any hesitation, Shi Hen swiftly grabbed the two tentacles and tied them into a neat bow to secure them.

"Stupid bear!"

Kicked the brown bear on the head and watched it snarl and writhe like a caterpillar, Shi Hen suddenly felt that the Herrscher of Erosion wasn't very smart.

Who would be killed by a low-level Honkai Beasts just because they lost their Honkai power?

Sasha!

The sound of feet rubbing against grass blades rang out.

Shi Hen looked in the direction of the sound and saw a pink-haired Miko holding a katana standing in front of him.

"Hello, Miss Miko."

Shi Hen raised his hand in greeting, a gentle smile on his face.

He'd been playing with that brown bear for so long, and the true master of the Stigmata Space was only just arriving; he was rather slow to react.

"Hello, traveler from afar."

The Miko nodded slightly, a smile playing on her lips as if she wanted to return the gesture, but her expression froze when her gaze fell upon the brown bear bound like a dumpling next to the boy.

"This monster was... dealt with by you, sir?"

The Miko asked, her smile, which had only just begun to appear, turning into surprise.

In East Asia, Honkai Beasts are often referred to as monsters in folklore.

Are there any other people here?

Shi Hen asked rhetorically.

He felt that the Miko didn't seem very smart either.

"No, I just..." The Miko shook her head, hesitated for a few seconds before continuing, "It is rare to see a human capable of subduing a demon."

"Excuse me, are you a Dharma Master?"

In the traditional understanding of the Far East, only a few special professions are capable of Anti-Honkai.

"A mage?" Upon hearing this title, Shi Hen shook his head, his expression suddenly becoming more serious. "I am a knight from the Schicksal Church on the other side of the continent. I am here only to search for the Saintess's whereabouts."

"Miss Miko, have you seen a beautiful woman with white hair?"

In an instant, the Miko's face turned pained, as if she had been forced to recall some nightmarish past events.

But before Shi Hen could ask, the Miko quickly regained her composure and said softly, "I'm sorry, Sir Knight, I have never seen her."

"Is that so?" Seeing this, Shi Hen's lips curled up in a playful smile, but he didn't ask any further questions. "In that case, could I stay nearby for a few days?"

My name is Hen, and I'll temporarily hold the position of captain in the Schicksal Knight.

There's still plenty of time; he can slowly play around with the Herrscher of Erosion.

"Of course." The Miko nodded gently, a warm smile like that of spring on her face. "Yae Village is not far from here. I am the shrine Miko of the village shrine. You may call me Yae Sakura."

As she spoke, Yae Sakura drew her sword, and in a flash, she sliced the brown bear into several pieces.

"Miss Yae has excellent swordsmanship."

Shi Hen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

At least in the current situation, the other party is indeed more efficient at cutting down Honkai Beasts than he is.

"Just practice more." With a subtle smile, Yae Sakura appeared very modest. "The spirit swords enshrined at the shrine also have some restraining effect on such demons."

"..."

Seeing Yae Sakura deliberately slowing down her movements to show him the crimson katana, Shi Hen couldn't help but fall silent.

Did this Miko truly not sense the filth and madness contained within this knife?

What the opponent is using is no longer a spirit sword, but a completely demonic Demon Blade!

Chapter 108 You also like night running?

Night falls deep at the Senba Academy.

The bustling campus during the day becomes desolate in the darkness, and this sudden change in atmosphere often gives people a sense of fear, as if they have stepped into a realm of demons and ghosts.

Of course, this eerie atmosphere did not deter the knights of the Kaslana family, so Kiana resolutely climbed over the wall and sneaked into the Senba Academy.

The only thing that can defeat a girl is...

Achoo!

Rubbing her slightly cold nose, Ren Kiana shrank back, a hint of retreat creeping into her heart.

Winters in Changkong City are already cold, let alone in the dead of night like this.

She should be lying comfortably in her warm bed, sleeping soundly.

She took out her phone and glanced at the time displayed as "02:33," and couldn't help but complain in her heart.

If she finds out who kept her up all night, I'll teach that bastard a lesson!

But for now... let's finish our inspection and go home as soon as possible.

Having made up her mind, Kiana immediately quickened her pace and started jogging.

But while the girls from the Kaslana family were passionate, the three little ones on the other side lacked that same enthusiasm.

"Haha, you coward Seele, if you're scared, you should go back by yourself. I can handle this little thing all by myself."

Xing glanced at the nervous look on the blue-haired girl's face and immediately started to laugh.

As the one who seems to be at the bottom of the three, it won't be easy for her to find an opportunity to prove herself.

"No!" Even though her body was already huddled together in fear, and her eyes kept scanning her surroundings as if some demon would rush out of the darkness at any moment, Seele still gripped the scythe tightly and refused to give in. "Seele is not afraid."

She is a warrior against Anti-Entropy; how could she allow the potential threat of Honkai to spread on campus simply because of fear?

Moreover, this was their Team Seven's first mission since arriving in the Far East, and the girl absolutely could not allow herself to hold them back at such a time.

Otherwise, how could she face Shi Hen, who had always taken care of them, and Sister Bronya, who believed in her?

Glancing at the gray-haired girl was calmly observing her surroundings, Seele's resolve grew even stronger.

"If you're not afraid, then why are you shaking?"

With a sneer, Xing saw through the blue-haired girl's stubbornness at a glance.

"Ah?"

Seele gasped softly and quickly tried to calm herself down, but her little hands trembled even more violently.

Snap

A slender, slightly cold hand suddenly grasped the girl's trembling hand.

Looking up, Seele was met with a beautiful face that showed no emotion whatsoever.

"If Seele is scared, just hold Bronya's hand," Bronya said softly, her voice gentler than usual. "No matter what happens, Bronya will protect Seele."

"Yes, I also believe in Sister Bronya."

With a gentle nod, a happy smile naturally appeared on Seele's face.

Apricot. "..."

I was so stupid, really.

I only knew Seele was a coward, but I forgot that there was Bronya next to her who would be all lovey-dovey with her.

Looking at the two hands clasped tightly together, and then at her own two lonely hands, Xing felt as if her heart had been pierced by countless sharp arrows.

If she ever finds out who was behind tonight's events, she'll tear them to pieces!

She thought bitterly to herself when a series of "tap-tap-tap" footsteps suddenly reached Xing's ears.

"Heh, finally found you, you piece of trash!"

With a grin, Xing's figure vanished from the spot in a flash.

"Xing! Wait, don't be impulsive!"

Looking in the direction the pink-haired girl had gone, Seele only had time to utter a single cry.

Near the Senba Academy, they have yet to find a single Honkai Beasts or Honkai zombie, as if ME Company Honkai Energy detector had malfunctioned.

But if the detector is not malfunctioning, it means that something very unusual has happened at the Senba Academy.

Especially in such extraordinary times, they should be even more cautious and never act rashly.

Unfortunately, Anne is clearly not a patient person.

"..."

Bronya, standing to the side, bit her lip, lost in thought.

Where had she heard those footsteps before?

Could it be... her?

A certain possibility flashed in Bronya's eyes, and she immediately caught up with Xing at a speed even faster than Xing.

"Hey? Sister Bronya?"

Seeing that even the usually composed Bronya was acting in the same way, Seele hesitated for half a second, but then quickened her pace to follow.

Annie might act impulsively, but Bronya would never.

She trusted the other party's judgment.

On the other side, Kiana, who was jogging, also sensed something rapidly approaching her.

Is this person, given their size, Honkai zombie?

Deducing information about the approaching enemy from the sounds, the girl's body involuntarily tensed up, and she held the baseball bat horizontally in front of her, ready to strike.

It's here!

Footsteps approached rapidly, Kiana felt a chill run down her spine as her eyes caught sight of something rushing out of the woods.

"Hahaha! Go to hell, you bastard—"

A laugh rang out, but before Kiana could see who it was, another, even faster figure suddenly rushed out from the side and kicked the former back into the woods.

The latter paused slightly, Kiana, seeing the other's face clearly, couldn't help but change her expression. "B- Bronya?"
