ABILITIES
| |
| 《 It has the effect of dramatically increasing your current martial arts abilities of Hifumi. For example, a single flash of cut from the katana can cut easily anything (even the hardest steel) even releasing an unseen wave. Even boosting Hifumi's sense and capability of his body. | |
| 《 The Death god grandly gestured towards Hifumi, a black mist permeating Hifumi’s body. The Death God gave Hifumi the darkness attribute that the death god excels at, and Hifumi will be able to use dark magic depending on your image there, and it is at a level that exceeds human knowledge. | |
| 《 A natural talent to foresee/sense and avoid danger on the basis of an innate 6th sense, intuition, or prescience. The day of Hifumi had finished his daily morning practice and was sitting in meditation in front of the dojo. Slowly inhaling the crisp and cold morning air, and feeling something within him stir. A slight quiver passed through him while suppressing that feeling. For Hifumi, this abnormal and severe practice of mind and matter was also a time for him to relax more than anything else. Once he reached 18, it seemed to have settled down, or rather, he’s acting more his age and enjoying anime, manga, and novels relaxedly. Other than martial talents (Iaido Technique), a very ordinary young man. As the god of martial arts said, Hifumi’s fighting power had already reached a cheat-like level. He acquired all the skills that the founder of the school left behind solely from experience, as such, it was possible to easily win against all the pupils of the dojo simultaneously in a straight-up fight, it wasn’t even funny. |
|
| 《 Hifumi possesses a fighting style technique (Iaido) specialized in butchering people with a katana. A practical fighting style focused solely on winning. Completely unrelated to the mentality of an investigator. This makes it strong yet fragile. After Hifumi received the Death God Blessing, Hifumi kill the death god instantly even the other gods were surprised. Because of the way Hifumi's method of killing, his personality has been flipped and he makes a ferocious smile. Hifumi holds to some standards, one of them being “Up to junior high school level, the parents should take responsibility for their children’s actions”. Besides, “Criminals do not have human rights” and “Don’t pay attention to religious fanatics and educators” are unsuitable for the laws and customs of Japan, because of which Hifumi had accumulated stress and impatience. | |
Equipment:
| |
| Iaido katana - Without excessive decoration, a black sword of simple make. Although inexpensive, he’d inherited it from his master and treated it with great respect, a peerless sword. Because of the blessing of God, the katana can kill anything including a God. It Sharpness has been boosted, it won’t bend or break, and all traces of rust are removed. | |
