Hogwarts Summoning Guide

"Yaksha!" Minamoto no Yorimitsu shouted, and the other generals gathered around him. Several of them stood in a row, glaring angrily at the demon king Yaksha and the thousands of demons pouring out of the city gate.

"Ha, General Genji! I've heard so much about you..." The Demon King Yasha's words even carried a hint of the banditry of the Tang Dynasty.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu was both furious and anxious as he looked at the girl beside the demon king Yasha. The woman was none other than his half-sister, Minamoto no Yorimai. Yorimai should have been in the Minamoto clan's old home in Settsu, but somehow she had been abducted by the demon king Yasha and brought here.

However, Minamoto no Yorimai did not look in the direction of Minamoto no Yorimitsu at all, and seemed to be completely captivated by the Demon King Yasha. No matter how the Demon King Yasha kicked her, she struggled to crawl back and even went up to lick the Demon King Yasha's feet.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu was filled with rage, but he was helpless and hesitant to act rashly. He had originally been determined to charge forward with his army and kill all the demons and monsters, no matter what they were. But when he saw Minamoto no Yorimai, a crack appeared in his fighting spirit.

Seeing Minamoto no Yorimitsu's furious expression, the Demon King Yasha laughed loudly. He had already sensed that Minamoto no Yorimitsu's aura had weakened somewhat. Suddenly, he grabbed Minamoto no Yorimai's body, ripped off the clothes around her neck, revealing her snow-white upper body. Under Minamoto no Yorimitsu's horrified gaze, he bit down on Minamoto no Yorimai's neck. Minamoto no Yorimai immediately screamed in agony, and blood spurted from her neck. It was clear that she was going to die.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu took a deep breath of hot blood and threw Minamoto no Yorimai's corpse into the crowd of demons like trash. The demons cheered excitedly, knowing that in just a few breaths, Minamoto no Yorimai would be reduced to ashes.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu could no longer contain his anger and roared, "All troops, charge!"

Bai Lin didn't recognize Yuan Laiwu, but he didn't see her clearly at first. By the time he tried to teleport there to save her, it was too late, and he couldn't help but get furious.

Other generals also shouted, "Charge! Charge! Kill them all!"

The soldiers responded loudly, brandishing their spears and swords, and charged past the generals toward the demons' army.

However, the demon king Yaksha opposite him stuck out his long tongue and licked the blood from his mouth clean. With a flick of his finger, a large-mouthed wine pot hanging above his head immediately spewed out thick black smoke, enveloping the demon king Yaksha and the demons around him in the black smoke.

The various forms of demons all around opened their strange cloth bags, from which black smoke billowed out. In no time, the entire demon army was shrouded in black smoke. Minamoto no Yorimitsu's soldiers rushed into the black smoke and were immediately blinded.

"Aaaaaah!" The soldier at the front suddenly collapsed to the ground, rolling around on the ground. His skin was corroded horribly in the black smoke, as if it had been splashed with sulfuric acid.

"Oh no! The black smoke is poisonous!" Watanabe Tsuna shouted.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu mounted his horse and said, "Usui! Blow away the black smoke!"

Usui Sadamitsu, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, responded loudly. He was a follower of "Fūjin Shinatohiko" and was also skilled in sorcery (so Minamoto no Yorimitsu did not feel that he needed the Onmyōryō priests to accompany him in battle). He rode forward, brandishing his spear, which instantly created a whirlwind that blew the black smoke in front of him to both sides.

However, a dark figure flew out from the black smoke; it was the copper wine pot that the Demon King Yaksha had just been drinking from.

The copper wine jug came at lightning speed, like a cannonball, hurtling towards Usui Sadamitsu's face.

In the blink of an eye, Minamoto no Yorimitsu appeared before Usui Sadamitsu like a golden lightning bolt, his katana raised high, unleashing an extremely sharp sword aura. This sword was the pinnacle of his martial arts, and even the most sturdy sake bottle...

He was confident he could crush it.

Sure enough, the sword energy struck the bronze wine pot heavily, as if slicing through a wooden wine pot, splitting it in two without any suspense.

However, when the copper wine pot was opened, it did not fall to the ground. Instead, a swarm of black insects flew out of it. The number of insects increased, like an endless locust plague, and they swarmed towards Minamoto no Yorimitsu's soldiers.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu was greatly alarmed. He was filled with regret. Although he possessed divine power and was not afraid of these strange insects, his soldiers were just ordinary people with flesh and blood. He didn't know how many more men would die this time.

On the other side, the left and right armies.

After all, this wasn't like the battles in China where hundreds of thousands of troops could easily be seen from the rear. Their force of a few thousand men was only a few miles apart. Minamoto no Hiromasa of the right wing had obviously seen what was happening to the front. He clenched his fist and waved his hand, saying, "Speed ​​up the march and come to the flanks to support the front!" He then signaled to Urabe no Suetake of the left wing.

Minamoto no Hiromasa's right wing had already passed through the mountain forest on the side and was attacking the demon army on the hilltop. Meanwhile, Urabe no Suetake's left wing was originally going to flank the demon camp from the side via a small path, but their vanguard had suffered a setback and they were outnumbered. If they rashly went around to the rear, they would easily be isolated and helpless.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu's vanguard was already engaged in a fierce battle. Thousands of demons only engaged the soldiers in close combat after the soldiers were attacked by poisonous insects. Fortunately, most of Minamoto no Yorimitsu's vanguard consisted of well-equipped imperial guards, and most of the demons were low-level demons of level 1 or 2, so they were not defeated at the first contact. However, the advantage in numbers was completely useless, and the casualty rate was far higher than that of the demon army.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu led the Four Heavenly Kings deep into the enemy ranks, where they fought fiercely against several tall demons. Although they gradually gained the upper hand, the screams of the soldiers all around them were heartbreaking, preventing Minamoto no Yorimitsu from using his full strength.

"You lot, spread out and lead the soldiers into formation! Don't all crowd around me!" Minamoto no Yorimitsu shouted.

Watanabe no Tsuna and the others received their orders and scattered to fight in all directions, constantly shouting for the soldiers to maintain their formation, while Minamoto no Yorimitsu stood in the center of the main force, cutting the charging demons into pieces.

It's unclear how many demons he slew, but Minamoto no Yorimitsu finally stopped wielding his sword, panting heavily.

While Amaterasu's divine power was immense, it wasn't entirely her own. Infusing it into her body placed a heavy burden on her. The demon king Yasha knew this, which is why he hesitated to confront Minamoto no Yorimitsu. He first used Minamoto no Yorimai's life to wear down Yorimitsu's fighting spirit, then used minor demons to weaken his divine power. Conversely, Yorimitsu couldn't possibly use the lives of his soldiers to weaken Yasha's demonic power.

Just as Minamoto no Yorimitsu's divine power was waning, the Oni King Yasha's sake jug suddenly appeared and sprayed a large amount of sake mist at Minamoto no Yorimitsu.

"Well done!" Minamoto no Yorimitsu went forward without fear, and swung his Yasutsuna sword out with a fierce gust of wind, which was not very sharp, but it cleaved through the mist of sake.

Sure enough, flames suddenly spewed out from the wine jug in the air, igniting the entire cloud of wine mist. However, instead of retreating, Minamoto no Yorimitsu rushed into the gaps in the wine mist, dodging a large area of ​​flames.

"The Great General is indeed valiant! Haha, he is qualified to have a few moves with me!" The Ghost King Yaksha stood on the largest wine jug and flew out of the black mist. Now was the best time to make his move.

However, Minamoto no Hiromasa had already captured the hilltop and was now leading his troops into the battle formation from the side. Watanabe no Tsuna's pressure was greatly reduced. If Minamoto no Hiromasa hadn't arrived, his side might have been completely wiped out.

With the power of Tsukuyomi already in his grasp, Minamoto no Hiromasa leaped off his horse, his figure transforming into a black shadow as he charged into the horde of demons. Watanabe no Tsuna only saw a crescent-shaped blade of light as Minamoto no Hiromasa unleashed his sword-drawing technique, the sword energy slicing more than a dozen demons in front of him in half.
