Editing Hagure Yuusha no Aesthetica:Volume 9 Chapter 2 (section)

===Part 6===

"Do you think if you defeat us, you can also beat Kyouya?"
 
Ryohei informed Kaidou of the current state of affairs.
 
"The power of Ousawa's younger sister is the real thing. Kyouya will soon enter into a realm above everyone. You tell me, who in the world could defeat him? As for your fellow female companion who had infiltrated earlier, she should of already been taken care of by Kyouya."
 
And......
 
"As for Ousawa, about this time he should be occupied with that higher-order dragon he met before, only this time it was made several times stronger by the exercise program. I'm afraid that it's too late fro him to meet up with Kyouya, and he has already joined his ancestors (Died)."
 
"If that's the case...... then I just have to take down Kyouya."
 
Kaidou just shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile. Ryohei then suddenly could not help laughing,
 
"...... You?  Impossible, you can't even defeat me right now."
 
"If that is so? Then I will just have to show you whether it's impossible or not."
 
After saying so, Kaidou suddenly disappeared.
 
"-!"
 
Ryohei immediately stabbed his Chinese Dao into the ground.
 
After a bang, intense flame spout out from the cracks in the floor that spread out around Ryohei.
 
It was an attack that simultaneously attacks and defends.
 
The raging flames caused hot updraft of air, leaving no holes.
 
There was only one gap. Therefore,
 
"Right here!"
 
The place right above himself was the only spot that wasn't effected by the heat from the flames. Therefore, Ryohei quickly raised his sword up releasing a huge whirlpool of flames, thoroughly burning the space above his head.
 
In theory that should of done the trick, but......
 
"What!?"
 
Along with sound of a burst of wind Ryohei's flames of were blown away.
 
By the time he realized it was due to Kaidou's chain being swung at high speed, Ryohei was already thrust to the side from the impact to his body,
 
"Gaa -- ah!"
 
A heavy dull pain spreads from his gut to his whole body.
 
Still he was able resist the pain, and regain his posture in the air to attempt to land on his feet.
 
"-- It's too bad, but I'm not through with you yet."
 
A low voice reached Ryohei as another shock came from under him, this time hitting him into the sky.
 
Under intense pain, he creased his brows as he looked down, and could not find any traces of Kaidou.
 
"So!"
 
Ryohei concentrated his mind, and shot out flames in all directions.
 
The fire magic he released was not only meant to protect himself, but to pin point where Kaidou was.
 
And as Ryohei expected his plan worked, as there was an area where his flames had suddenly been extinguished to his 5 o'clock.
 
At once, he moved to slash down with his Dao, which flames wouldn't be stopped by a barrier......
 
"Eh?"
 
But before Ryohei swung down with his the sword -- no, it should be before he had the idea to attack, from his 5 o'clock a straight line through the fire coming towards him had mystery gone out.
 
And then, a series of invisible attacks hit Ryohei's torso.
 
"This...... ah ah ah!"
 
Ryohei struggled to move his sword in front of him, but then felt no reaction.
 
It was dodged.
 
...... No way, is this......!?
 
At the same time Ryohei's thoughts arrived at one possibility,
 
"-- Correct answer."
 
Ryohei clearly heard Kaidou's laughter from behind -- strictly speaking, it should be from behind and above him.
 
"A "domain" is not something Akki patented."
 
And before Ryohei could react, he was knocked to the floor, and immediately lost conscious.
