The Reincarnation Room
Original Power of Sherlock (II)

Jeeders

The sound of roars boomed in this huge space. A thunderstorm exploded, triggering electric shocks rumbling in all directions.

In this lightning strike, Ryan's figure was like a ball being bombarded by a bomb attack.

"Gurghhh!" Although Ryan has not been hit by lightning directly, but Ryan's skin feels burned.

To avoid a bigger lightning strike, Ryan immediately backflip back.

After a successful backflip, Ryan immediately retreated until the distance between Sherlock and Ryan reached a dozen meters.     

The moment Ryan had come out of the range of the lightning strike, he stopped while enduring the pain all over his body.

Within the area of the lightning flash that was still snatching, Sherlock stood there with a shocked expression. He also complimented Ryan.

"I've tried my best not to be surprised." 

"But, still I didn't expect you to be able to react at the last minute and immediately get out of my attack range. That way, you can reduce the injuries caused by this lightning direct attack."

"Truly amazing."

Ryan did not expect this compliment.

What Sherlock used just now is one of the Special Abilities that Sherlock copied from IU members.

As Leader of IU, Sherlock already naturally possessed many Special Techniques and Abilities.

And the most dangerous is Cognis' Special Ability, where Sherlock can predict and deduce reasoning simultaneously. Even the existence of the Mystic Eye of Death Perception was successfully Sherlock dismantled using Cognis.

Thinking about all this, Ryan's expression was really bad.

This was the first time Ryan had encountered an enemy like this. Not only powerful, but also using his brain.

In the world of Kabaneri The Iron Fortress and God Eater, his opponent had always used the dominance of power without using a brain. This is very different from Sherlock Holmes.

Just by analyzing Ryan's movements for a while, he had already revealed many secrets. Even predicting all his attacks.

'If I use the stigma now, it means I've intentionally gotten into his trap.'

'But if I don't use Stigma, how can I defeat it?' ryan thought as he continued to watch Sherlock.     

"In that case, I can only try it."

Ryan clasped his dagger upside down, as if the dagger was a cheetah fang. 

Ryan gradually lowered his posture until his empty left hand was pressed to the ground. 

This posture is similar to a cheetah that is designed to hunt its prey.

"Hoo~" Looking at Ryan's posture, Sherlock slowly raised the sword in his hand.

Ryan took a deep breath as he looked at Sherlock with his icy mystic eyes. 

A moment later, Ryan stomped his foot to the ground and shot towards Sherlock like an arrow that had slipped out of his bow.

However, Sherlock seems to have predicted Ryan's movements. 

With a small thrust, the sword in Sherlock's hand instantly pierced towards Ryan's throat.

Facing the stab that was getting closer to his throat, Ryan chose to stay forward and not back at all. 

The dagger in Ryan's hand turned into a flash of white light. At high speed, the dagger greeted the tip of Sherlock's sword aiming for Ryan's throat.

"Flashing Sheath: Four Crossroad (More: Shi-Tsu no kosaten)!"

Instantly, that flash of white light turned into 4 white flashes, welcoming the sword thrusts that came.

Ting

The first flash of light struck the tip of Sherlock's sword and deflected it to spark a spark.

Slash

A second flash of light broke through the atmosphere, cutting through Sherlock's body. However, from Sherlock's body comes a strong wind pressure, so Ryan's second attack can only cut the wind shield.

Shortly thereafter, the third and fourth flashes of light flew straight towards Sherlock's neck and heart.

Seeing this attack, Sherlock smiled wryly. "This attack is a little bit dangerous." 

Sherlock was not panicking at all. He then instantly activated one of his Special Abilities. 

Kratak Kratak

In the clear-sounding sound of condensation, a cold gust emerged from Sherlock's body, making the two flashes of light freeze like ice.

Both flashes disappeared and were replaced with a dagger.

Although his technique has been broken, Ryan continues his attack on Sherlock.

Ting Ting Ting

Like a wheel of wind, Sherlock's sword and Ryan's dagger, clashed against each other. With ease, Sherlock dispels Ryan's attack.

Without any pause, Ryan immediately used the Nanaya Killing Technique.

"Flashing Sheath: Seven Nights (Senses: Shichiya)!"

There was only one slash, but the resulting effect was as if the space in front of him was cut in half.

Facing the fastest technique Ryan had ever learned, Sherlock instantly blocked with his sword.  

Clang

Together with a bell-like voice, the holy sword that Sherlock hailed as an English treasure instantly flew high into the air.     

Ryan was finally able to get rid of Sherlock's weapon.

"A chance!" 

Without wasting any time, Ryan immediately carried out a follow-up attack.

Based on the Mystic Eye of Death Perception, Ryan can see the death line in the wind. He then slashed the wind death line around Sherlock to make Sherlock unaware of the direction of his attack.

Slash

An extremely fast flash of light crossed space like lightning and slashed down violently.

As Ryan's dagger was about to slash at Sherlock's head, suddenly a red light emerged from his body.

Shiiiing

Suddenly, Ryan's eyes were immediately filled with this dazzling red light.

"What is this?!" Ryan's surprised.

Because of this red light, Ryan could feel a terrifying power that he had never felt before.

This power was clearly at a higher level. No matter who, there was nothing worthy of being compared to that red light.

Regardless of the horror of the red light, Ryan kept attacking Sherlock.

An extremely fast slash struck and cut through the air, leaving a dazzling slash of daggers in the air.

Slash

"This?!" Ryan was surprised. 

At the same time, the red light disappeared. And Sherlock as well. 

Sherlock's figure had completely disappeared from where he stood. Not because it is too fast, or in a blind spot, but actually disappears.

After a while, Sherlock's voice slowly sounded. "This ability is called "teleportation. Do I also need to explain how this ability works?"

Hearing this voice, Ryan immediately turned towards the direction of the voice.

In front of the room, Sherlock's figure suddenly appeared with a body that seemed to be formed from the condensation of light particles.

"You!" A pair of ice mystic eyes were wide-eyed at him.

'Anjir, I didn't expect that Sherlock still had an ace like this!'

'Doesn't that mean, other than offensive and defensive power, Sherlock has the ability to blur as well?'

'This is really cheating!' ryan shouted in his heart.

'But come to think of it, doesn't it mean that Sherlock has been playing games with me all this time?'

'He could have used teleportation from the start to dodge my attack. Even he can also appear behind me suddenly and stab me in the back.'

The more he thought about it, the more Ryan realized something was strange.
