The Onis figured it was time for them to step it up a notch. The Onis with the strongest fighting prowess and ability would start to show themselves. They were hidden in the darkness, but they figured that it was time to take these guys out. There were enough of them to be able to get out of here. They would dispose of Benimaru as well while they were at it.
It was then that they would make their moves. Four Onis would appear in front of Yuurei they would attack him simultaneously. Yuurei felt the danger coming from the four directions, and he would swing his Excalibur to try and slice one of them. It was then that Oni would dodge the attack coming for him as he knew where the blade would end.
The Seraphim was surprised about that, and he would see the other three would continue their assault. Migi would use his appendages to try and cut two of them, but they had conjured weapons to clash with Migi’s attack. The last one would end up right in front of Yuurei.
The requip mage would see this and he would smile. This was an impressive coordinated attack. He didn’t think giving them time would work and he would feel the hit land from the Oni. Yuurei would gasp for air as he would allow the impact of the blow to push him away from the four Onis. He would look at them as they all laughed and become one with darkness again.
“This is going to be great. Which of us gets to take over your body?” One of them said as it echoed throughout the Cavern.
Renji would look at Yuurei, but then he would turn back as one Oni would show up. It was then it would attack Renji. The Exceed would see this and the armor would react to the attack. The Oni knew this would happen, and he would create a barrier of darkness to defend himself from the armor’s magic. Renji would suck his teeth as he felt the impact of the blow this Oni had delivered to the armor. He would swing the Jeweled Sword Zelretch and pure light mana would come out as a slash. The Oni would go under and into the ground to avoid the attack as he was waiting for his next plan of attack.
“So, they were holding back on us?” He asked Yuurei.
Yuurei would look at Migi for a second.
“No, they were learning about us and how we fight. They didn’t attack us from the beginning because they knew nothing about us. Just like we know nothing about them.” He said to Migi as simple as he could explain.
The Onis everybody would fight would be smarter, stronger, and not something that can be taken out within one hit. The group would soon realize that there was a reason they were sealed away.
