"Bang!"
In the midst of the fiercely burning Red Lotus Fire, two figures constantly battling each other finally sprang apart, as if propelled by an explosion, creating distance between them.
Tsukigui Yoriichi finally landed. After hitting the ground, he stepped back two or three steps before stabilizing his stance.
Reiger, on the other hand, kept his feet plowing the earth, screeching to a halt after a few meters.
It was not until this moment that there was time to catch their breath from the intense offense and defense.
"You truly deserve your reputation for defeating Kibutsuji Muzan," Tsukigui Yoriichi said as he watched Reiger across from him, holding his sword and exclaimed, "You are much stronger than I was in my lifetime."
"...No." Reiger was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "In some ways, I am far inferior to you."
These were Reiger's heartfelt words.
