Daganzo’s attention was drawn to Alton’s dagger.

“So, you’re going to attack me using that dagger or magic?”

Alton’s expression changed to surprise.

“Attack you using this dagger? It seems you misunderstood this thing.”

Alton pulled his dagger from its sheath, which apparently did not have a blade, making Daganzo surprised to see that.

“As usual, you guys forgot to put the blade on your dagger or something?”

Alton smiled.

“This object is called a “soul dagger”, the blade is our soul, the user. This dagger allows us to use magic that comes from our souls.”

Alton then re-attached the hilt to the sheath, which joined together firmly. Daganzo watched Alton with an increasingly astonished expression.

“Whatever you say, enough of these pleasantries. Last warning to you: surrender now, or I will force you to surrender.”

Alton smiled.

“Don’t you already know the answer?”

Daganzo’s expression turned serious. Alton continued speaking.

“You gave me an idea. How about we warm up first?”

Alton prepared to attack using his sheathed dagger, then ran towards Daganzo. Daganzo didn’t flinch and didn’t even changed his stance. Daganzo came into range of Alton’s attack; Alton then swung his sheathed dagger quickly at Daganzo, who deflected it easily with his sword. Their two weapons collided strongly, causing sparks. Alton immediately continued his attack by swinging, slashing, and thrusting his sheathed dagger at Daganzo from all directions, but Daganzo was able to deflect everything casually with his sword. Seeing that Daganzo was superior to him, Alton stopped his attacks and then moved backward several meters. Alton stood facing Daganzo in a stance ready to attack using his sheathed dagger. Daganzo’s expression changed to surprise.

“We don’t need to fight using our weapons. Your weapon isn’t even a dagger in the true sense.”

Alton’s expression turned serious. Daganzo’s expression turned serious; he then swung his sword toward Alton.

“Wind Blast.”

Daganzo’s sword shot a wisp of wind that shot quickly toward Alton. Alton also immediately swung his sheathed, bladeless dagger at Alton.

“Fire Blast.”

Alton’s sheathed dagger shot a fireball that shot quickly toward Daganzo; their attacks collided and created a large fire explosion because the fire element collided with the wind element. The thick black smoke of this explosion blocked Daganzo’s view, and Alton immediately ran away from here. After the explosion ended and the smoke dispersed, Daganzo saw that Alton had run quite far from here.

“Damn, I already thought he would try to avoid the fight.”

Daganzo immediately ran after Alton.

Back to Alton, he ran in front of the row of shop buildings beside him while taking a cursory look at his surroundings as if planning something. Daganzo, who was chasing, swung his sword again.

“False Image.”

Immediately, there was a momentary wind energy burst. Several surveillance cameras here did not record what happened when Alton and Daganzo ran past them. Alton continued running, then swung his sheathed dagger at one of the buildings to his left.

“Strong pull.”

The walls of this shop then exploded and destroyed, and various kinds of furniture, such as tables, chairs, etc, were thrown out, blocking the sidewalk. The slightly disturbed Daganzo, who was chasing Alton, immediately jumped over these objects and continued chasing. Daganzo swung his sword above his front.

“Come, Eagle Feather.”

Daganzo continued running.

From a distance, a flying broomstick, which had a glossy dark brown wooden handle with smooth, sturdy carvings, smooth black broom fibers tied neatly to resemble a brush for writing, and had a place to support both legs to ride it, flew from in front of Daganzo and sped away quickly. This broom flew from the front towards Alton and didn’t slow down, making Alton surprised and dodging to the side; this flying broomstick almost hit him. Alton, who managed to dodge, almost fell, but he was able to balance himself and continue running.

Behind Alton, Daganzo was ready; he then steadily caught the flying broomstick he had summoned with his right hand and immediately rode it after Alton. Alton, who had expected this, occasionally looked back to watch Daganzo. As Alton expected, Daganzo chased him while riding a broomstick and quickly closed the distance with him. Alton immediately ran into the alley. Daganzo immediately braked his flying broomstick and almost missed this alley. Daganzo immediately turned and flew into the alley beside him. Daganzo swung his sword at Alton. The swing of his sword released a ball of light like a whitish-red flare gunshot; it shot quickly but didn’t manage to hit Alton and only hit the floor nearby, which then exploded.

While running, Alton also swung his sheathed dagger towards Daganzo behind him; the ball of light shot quickly towards Daganzo but didn’t hit him, without even needing him to dodge it, and just shot into the air and disappeared because it didn’t hit anything.

They continued to fire magic attacks at each other using their daggers and swords, destroying many parts of the ground or building walls.

Daganzo quickly closed the distance with Alton; he prepared to direct his spell at Alton. While still riding a broomstick, Daganzo swung his sword at Alton.

“Freeze.”

But again, this magic spell failed to hit Alton. Alton swung his sheathed dagger towards the wall near Daganzo. A ball of light resembling a flare shot hit the wall near Daganzo; this wall shattered and collapsed, almost hitting Daganzo; he immediately evaded to the side and was not hit. Alton swung his sheathed dagger again towards the front.

“Come, Dragon Wings.”

Not long after, a flying broomstick, which had a glossy black wooden handle with smooth, sturdy carvings, smooth black broom fibers tied neatly to resemble a brush for writing, and had a place to support both legs to ride it, flew quickly from a distance towards Alton from behind. This flying broomstick shot past Daganzo and made him slightly surprised.

Alton ran out of the alley, turned left, and ran along the sidewalk. The broomstick flying towards him continued to follow him until finally, it caught up with Alton and flew low to his right. Alton then got on it and flew higher. Daganzo also came out of the alley and tried to chase Alton. Seeing that Alton was increasingly difficult to catch, Daganzo contacted his comrades via the single earphone in his left ear.

“I need help; the target is riding a flying broomstick and potentially to escape.”

One of Alton’s male comrades replied.

“Understood, we will approach your location.”

They then ended the call with each other.

Before an apartment building, a man who is Daganzo’s comrade wearing a suit and loafers covered with an overcoat then pulled his Existence Sword from its scabbard, which had a red blade with finely carved patterns that was different from Daganzo’s sword. This man then summoned his flying broomstick, got on it, and flew away from here.

A Daganzo comrade in the middle of a quiet park with shady trees in the middle of the city and A Daganzo comrade on the rooftop of a building summoned their flying broomstick, got on them, and flew away from their place. While flying, the three Daganzo comrades took out pocket watches from their overcoat inner pockets and opened them. The three of them then flew in the direction indicated by the magic circle that resembled clock hands that appeared on their pocket watches.

Back to Daganzo, he rode his flying broomstick shot very quickly and quite high in the sky, but it was still difficult to close the distance with Alton quite far before him. On the other hand, Alton also found it difficult to escape from Daganzo, who continued to chase him.

“Damn, how long will this chase last?”

Not long after, Alton was shocked when he saw from several directions before him in the distance three of Daganzo’s comrades riding their flying broomsticks toward Alton to block him. Alton’s expression turned serious.

“It’s getting even more interesting.”

Alton swooped down and flew his broomstick at the below-average height of most buildings around him. Daganzo was surprised, then also dived down. Daganzo said through the single earphone in his left ear.

“You guys try blocking his way.”

Alton darted between the buildings and found that in front of him, there was one of Daganzo’s comrades who drew his Existence Sword and then pointed it forward.

“Glass Wall.”

Immediately before him, a reddish clear high glass wall formed with an uneven surface that blocked the entire road and would prevent Alton from penetrating it. Alton thought.

“Damn, I would be seriously injured if I hit that glass wall. Are they didn’t hesitate to kill me?”

Alton immediately turned his flying broomstick and darted into the alley to his right. But at the end of this alley, another Daganzo comrade was waiting for him and had also created a reddish clear high glass wall that blocked the entire alley. Alton slowed his flying broomstick speed and looked back, but at the end of the alley behind him, another Daganzo comrade also had blocked his exit with the same glass wall.

Without hesitation, Alton swooped up to get out of this alley. As soon as Alton almost exited the alley via the upper path, Daganzo’s comrades, who had previously flown above, immediately pointed his Existence Sword downwards and created a glass wall that spread quickly like the others so that this alley was blocked by magic walls from the front, back, and above.
