In the Dream Heaven sealed by Mysterious Chains, the mage corps was simply overwhelming.
Even though they ca from three different corps—Dazzling Star, Griffin, and Fortress—the basic tactics and hand sign commands were universal. As long as the highest-ranking mage was in charge, they could coordinate the most versatile tactical cooperation. Griffin Shooters provided cover, Fortress sword and shield charged forward, Dazzling Star warriors maneuvered around. Even without Miracle techniques, at this mont, perfect teamwork was the most powerful miracle.
Felix and Filly were being beaten and had to run in all directions. In the distance, the Fragnt Light Group was still placed on the rooftop, but the Dazzling Star Mage was guarding the route to the pass validation Fragnt, and Felix couldn’t find a way to seize it.
If they could snag the pass validation Fragnt, a portal would naturally appear, allowing them to slip away. Even if she didn’t take it, as long as the Dazzling Star Mage took the Fragnt, the portal would appear as well. But the Dazzling Star Mage didn’t do that, seemingly intending to trap the area in a closed state to kill all participants.
Before she could co up with a way to break the deadlock, the Dazzling Star Mage had already cornered them.
Bam!
Felix threw a stone to create an opening for Filly to take down the Dazzling Star warrior, but at that mont, the Fortress sword and shield pushed in, accompanied by the distant gunfire of Griffin Shooters, forcing Filly to fall back and defend. anwhile, two Dazzling Star warriors surrounded them from the side, and with three Dazzling Star warriors closing in, they would be trapped if they didn’t act quickly.
"We have to try that move!" Filly gritted her teeth and said, "Felix, create an opening for when they get close!"
"Stop calling sister!"
Felix took a deep breath, grabbed four stones in her hands, and when the Dazzling Star warriors approached, she threw them all at once!
The Dazzling Star warriors naturally could block such thrown objects, but the four stones collided mid-air, unexpectedly curving around to hit them on the head!
This wasn’t pure technique but used the Miracle technique "Move with the Wind." Using it on one stone carried no risk, but continuously using it on four stones... Felix couldn’t guarantee it wouldn’t trigger the Mysterious Chains!
At that mont, Filly moved.
The Dazzling Star warriors were interrupted, and naturally, the Fortress sword and shield pushed forward. No matter which target Filly attacked, the sword and shield could at least protect the vital parts of her comrades. Once they caught their breath, defeat for Filly and Felix was inevitable.
Thus, Filly needed not only to defeat them.
But to defeat them all in one mont!
Filly spun rapidly, like a spinning top, her sword blade twisting into a ribbon in the air, gently brushing past the Dazzling Star Mage. In an instant, the Dazzling Star Mage was cleaved in half, both person and shield!
Filly kicked away their remains, gripped her longsword, and charged toward the distant Griffin Shooter. With the enhanced "Cat’s Grace," Filly’s speed was unmatched. Seeing no escape, the Griffin Shooter opted for close combat and was easily beheaded by Filly.
"Phew." The little lamb took a deep breath, turned around, and hugged Felix: "Felix, we won!—"
"Where did you learn that move?"
"Huh?"
The little lamb then noticed Felix had changed expression again, thinking that her sister really had unpredictable moods: "Which move?"
"The move where you spun and instantly killed them," Felix’s eyes glimred with a peculiar light: "Did you figure that out yourself?"
"That’s right—"
"Impossible!" Felix grabbed her shoulders, "Soone must have taught you, who was it!?"
Seeing it was no use hiding, Filly thought for a mont and said, "Then don’t tell anyone, okay? I promised him not to talk about him teaching swordsmanship... it’s the Professor."
"Professor?"
"A vagabond who’s been secretly teaching swordsmanship these past months," Filly clenched her fists: "He’s amazing, every ti I couldn’t beat Ash and Sister Vishi, he would teach how to break through. The move I used just now is a killer move he told to practice a lot, but I haven’t mastered it yet, otherwise, I would have chopped off their heads."
Felix looked at her in a daze, then after a mont’s silence, asked: "What does he look like?"
"A face full of stubble, ssy golden hair, living as a vagabond in the slums," the little lamb finally reacted: "Do you know the Professor?"
"...No, I don’t know him." Felix shook her head gently: "I might have mistaken him, after all, he’s from your world."
How could it be a mistake, Felix saw very clearly—what Filly used was the cultivation technique for the Annihilation Wave!
She had secretly watched countless tis the scenes of Demi practicing this technique, and the man was exceedingly harsh with Demi, forcing him to morize all the inherited techniques of the Vosloda Family before he beca a mage, only to leave in a hurry soon after, as if he had returned just to fulfill his duties as Family Head and father.
But even though it was such a stingy fatherly love, she could only watch secretly, with no opportunity to learn the secret techniques of Vosloda!
The person teaching Filly was undoubtedly Duke Vosloda, their father, the most despicable man in any world!
But why did he approach Filly...?
Felix shook her head; she had long decided not to get involved with that man anymore.
"Filly, I’m sorry," she said softly: "I was too impulsive just now. You can have all these Holy Grail Fragnts; consider it my apology."
