"Reiger!"
As she saw Reiger being blown away and crashing into the ground not far off, Altoria couldn’t help but let out an alard cry.
"Mr. Reiger!"
Matthew’s expression changed, and she clenched her teeth, apparently ready to rush over.
Reiger was her savior; even though Da Vinci had advised her before to remain cautious of Reiger and the others due to their unclear identities, Matthew’s simplistic mindset made it unlikely for her to stand by and do nothing while her savior was in danger.
However, just as Matthew was about to rush to his aid, the enemy’s reinforcents finally arrived, albeit belatedly.
"We’ve found the target!"
"It’s the Child of Prophecy!"
"Quick, surround them!"
One by one, fairy soldiers with the bodies of n and heads of horses arrived at the scene with the sound of forceful, clanking footsteps and, seeing that Bawan Xi was already confronting Reiger, they imdiately ford an encirclent to rush toward the direction where Altoria and the Chaldea party were.
Altoria was the first to be engulfed, surrounded by a considerable number of fairy soldiers in no ti.
Having no choice, since she had infiltrated Calot and attacked the Jade Throne Hall, Altoria was already on the Queen’s Army’s blacklist, the fairy soldiers deed her a higher priority than the relatively unfamiliar Chaldea party.
Thus, a significant number of fairy soldiers surrounded Altoria, so raising long spears and thrusting towards her, while others held up halberds, even summoning a great swath of flas that roared towards Altoria’s position.
"Tch!"
Seeing this, Altoria clicked her tongue and had to raise her chosen staff, gathering Magic Power to begin fighting back.
The Chaldea party, too, found themselves surrounded by fairy soldiers and had no choice but to engage in combat.
"Fujimaru! Get back!"
Da Vinci promptly pulled Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was unard, to retreat towards the rear.
The fairy soldiers tried to follow, but Matthew blocked their way.
"Boom!"
Matthew, emitting a faint glow, charged like a chariot at full speed, her shield sending a fairy soldier soaring into the air, not landing for a long ti.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"......
The shield-wielding knight girl displayed unexpectedly astonishing strength, charging back and forth among the fairy soldiers; every swing of her shield sent one flying, resulting in continuous thuds.
"Ding-dong—"
Tristan also joined the fray, plucking his harp without a second word, releasing invisible attacks that sent the approaching fairy soldiers flying.
The power Bawan Xi had used earlier was, in fact, Tristan’s, so the battle thod of using the strings of the harp to launch long-range attacks was naturally sothing Tristan himself could do, even more adeptly than Bawan Xi.
Bawan Xi’s attacks were too monotonous, placing too much emphasis on killing power and cutting force, whereas Tristan was different. His attacks traced complex, varied paths—sotis striking from the sky, sotis surging from the ground, sotis charging from the sides, and sotis appearing from behind, like a net cast in the heavens and the earth, leaving no escape. In terms of threat, he was much more formidable than Bawan Xi.
Therefore, Bawan Xi, who had used Tristan’s power before, was only able to reach less than Lv.7, while Tristan himself, in his own right, definitely possessed strength at the Lv.7 level, and not just an ordinary Lv.7 at that.
This was the true power of the legendary Knights of the Round Table, or rather, the true strength of the lancholy Child of Lantation, Tristan, who ranked amongst the top of the Round Table Knights.
With the outstanding performance of two Knights of the Round Table, the onslaught of the fairy soldiers was finally repelled, making Fujimaru Ritsuka and Da Vinci quite a bit safer in the rear.
This made Da Vinci give up the notion of entering the fray, focusing entirely on protecting Fujimaru Ritsuka, the master.
"Everyone..."
Fujimaru Ritsuka really wanted to help, but knew better than to rush in, as that would only hinder the others. So, she could only clench the hand bearing the Command Seals, took several deep breaths, and concentrated, ready to provide support at any mont.
As a result, naturally, no one went over to assist Reiger.
Of course, he hardly needed any assistance.
"Bang!"
With the ground beneath him cracking, Reiger, having been sent flying by Bawan Xi’s blood energy attack, finally managed to steady himself.
"I see..."
Feeling pain throbbing through various parts of his body, Reiger lifted his head from behind the raised black blade, his eyes glistening transparently with calm resolve.
"So this is the confidence behind your willingness to face alone?"
Although he didn’t know what had happened, it was undeniable that Bawan Xi had beco stronger. She was now probably even a bit stronger than Shalltear in full armor; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to exhibit such a performance,
It’s a pity, but it seed that this new power had co at a cost.
"It’s all your fault... it’s all your fault...!"
Bawan Xi’s psyche appeared to be sowhat unstable, her eyes filled with hatred and anger when looking at Reiger.
"If it weren’t for you, mother would never have scolded ..."
"If it weren’t for you, mother would never have hit ..."
"That should have been enough with just ... just would have been enough...!"
Bawan Xi’s body exuded death energy and blood energy like rising steam, engulfing her entirely.
"What husband, huh? There’s no need for a husband who could be more loved by mother than ...!"
"I don’t need any father either, as long as I have mother, that’s enough...!"
