Albert's jaw fell to the ground. The spider he had a hard ti with was actually cleaved into two together with the Tier 6 beast. And her strike was so overwhelming that those two were not enough to stop it.
Clovis was trembling both in fear and excitent. On the one hand, he saw the towering wall that he had to climb to pursue his goal. On the other hand, he was also excited because he could see a glimpse of his path.
'Montum, huh?' Clovis squinted his eyes. It felt like he understood what she ant by 'change of pace'. What he used against the Tier 4 spider was nothing but the tip of an iceberg.
In addition, Mara hadn't gotten serious yet. She even had those eyes filled with boundless killing intent that could make Erwin pass out just by taking a glimpse of them.
Clovis clenched his hands into fists. 'I'll definitely beco that strong.'
Just like Albert, Friday was too shocked that a human was able to cut those two beasts in a single swing.
He didn't even realize that Mara had passed the two corpses and continued toward Clovis and the others.
"Still, why is she here?" Clovis frowned. Mara said that she would stay in the city for one more day before heading to her next destination. Never in his wildest dream did he imagine that Mara would be destroying all those rubbles.
With her strength, no matter what beasts were hiding underneath them, they would be crushed by her. Even multiple webs couldn't stop a few swings.
However, the question remained. She should have no obligation to help the city. Did the commander find her and sohow ask for her help?
"Is that the Bloody Queen, Mara Leverstrike?" Now that she had co closer, Albert could finally see her figure clearly and recognize her. While it was great that she helped them, he wasn't aware of this plan.
There was a chance that Mara simply wanted to kill soone, and the beasts just happened to be on the way.
Clovis suddenly jumped off the building, sliding down with the help of his short sword.
"Huh? Clovis? When did he co here? No, why would he go down?" Albert panicked as he also leaped off. Judging from the direction, Mara seed to be coming toward them.
In fact, she had cut a few buildings, which allowed her to go straight toward them.
"Clovis!" Erwin was wondering what happened. The only thing he saw were corpses being cleaved. And the only person who was capable of doing that was Mara. "Was the one who did that…"
Clovis nodded with a solemn expression. He also said, "Kanaria. Don't look at her or show any hostility."
Even though she was confused, after seeing how powerful the person was, she chose to follow Clovis' order.
"It seems that both of you have known about this…" Albert squinted his eyes.
"Is there sothing wrong, Granduncle? Who is that person?" Aileen asked.
"Mara Leverstrike."
"Mara… That Mara?" Aileen trembled. The others had a mixed reaction from fear to excitent.
"The Tier 9 Explorer that is known as the Bloody Queen?" lody gasped.
Albert wanted to say sothing, but he hurriedly turned around when he sensed a presence coming. As expected, Mara was coming toward them.
Albert was standing in front of the kids, his heart beating fast. His forehead was drenched in sweat, wondering what she was planning to do.
Albert hurriedly lowered his head. "We thank you for your help, Esteed Tier 9."
The people from the Risevan and Wishe families also did the sa. Aileen, lody, and Ragna followed suit, but Jay was fearless, so he kept observing her to understand the true powerhouse in this world.
Erwin had seen her, but the only thing he could do was turn his head away because he might end up getting traumatized again. Only Clovis was able to look her in the eyes as if they were in a friendly relationship.
Albert's body shook when Mara showed no sign of stopping. He was afraid that a sudden movent would be perceived as a threat, causing them to be killed.
At the sa ti, each step made him more and more nervous.
When she passed him, Albert was worried about the children. At the sa ti, he was hoping that Mara would ignore them and continue on to her destination.
Unfortunately, his heart sank the mont he heard the stopping step. It was ringing so loudly in his brain.
Still, it would be bad if Mara killed them, since Aileen was among them. Although he might die from this, Albert chose to turn around and open his mouth. "I…"
The words stuck in his throat when he saw Mara giving Clovis two bags, one filled with burgers and the other filled with soda. "Have so?"
"For them as well?" Clovis asked, noticing that there were more than ten burgers.
"I don't know how many people you have."
"I see." Once Clovis took the bags, he politely nodded his head. "Thank you, not only for this but also for killing those beasts."
"Beasts?" Mara tilted her head in confusion. "Ah."
'It was an afterthought?' Clovis was screaming inwardly.
"I'm rely completing a mission."
"!!!" That one word startled Clovis. He couldn't help but ask, "Have you found out more about it?"
"Maybe… maybe not? It's just a bit clearer this ti, as if the world has a will on its own."
"I see. Are you going to stick around then?"
"No." Mara shook her head. "I'll continue my journey."
"I understand. And once again, thank you." Clovis politely bowed. "Thanks to your swing, I feel like I am able to take a leap forward. I wish you a pleasant journey."
Mara nodded. As she was about to leave, he also added, "And my na is Clovis. I couldn't introduce myself last ti."
"Mhmm… Maybe I'll still rember that na if we ever et again." Mara walked away. But after she was several ters away from them, she stopped for a mont and kissed the tip of her finger before raising it up as if to feel the wind.
Then she turned to the east and started walking again.
Clovis wanted to cough up blood when he saw it. Mara had told him that she was rely walking to where the wind carried her. He thought it was a taphor, but it turned out she ant it literally.
