"Uwah!!!"
The battle was about to erupt.
Accompanied by the start of this process, the next second, a howl ca from "Gunblade."
Faced with the enemies insulting Ronald Adler, Costate directly moved in close.
The maid, with her movent speed far exceeding the enemy's, appeared directly in front of "Gunblade" and delivered an upward kick to his chin.
Thus, the spell shield that "Gunblade" had spread over his body instantly shattered.
He himself tilted his head back because of this powerful kick from Costate.
Although he cried out in pain from the impact, a closer look showed that he hadn't sustained any actual damage.
The rule-based defense was still effective on "Gunblade."
Even if he felt discomfort from the enemy's attack, he would essentially remain unhard.
It was at this mont that "Gunblade," clearly slower than Costate by a step, raised his hands. Although he had just acquired the canon of two companions, in this situation, he instinctively chose the attack thod provided by his own canon.
Swish, swish—
Sharp sounds emanated from his fingertips aid at Costate, and the attack identical to before reappeared.
Costate didn't have the kind of spell that Ronald could use to warn in advance.
But with the support of special canon abilities, the maid accurately captured every move of the opponent. In the mont when "Gunblade" raised his hands, when the magic fluctuation appeared and before the attack arrived.
Taking advantage of the inertial force from her previous kick, Costate, using the other leg as a pivot, traversed a perfect arc. Like performing a graceful dance move, the maid skillfully executed the evasive action.
However, this move was more than just an evasion.
In avoiding "Gunblade's" spell shooting, Costate's action also simultaneously contained an attack elent.
Almost in an instant when her body turned, the maid raised her left hand holding the [Abyssal Sea Lantern], swung upward, then downward, and bright firelight spilled from the lampshade's opening above the [Vast Sea Lantern] at the perfect angle.
Whoosh!
"Gunblade," just about to make an attack move, didn't even have ti to check if he had successfully hit the enemy, and the next second was already covered in raging flas.
The kind of spell that Ronald had earlier used to mobilize the world's magic power was still fresh before his eyes.
Facing Costate's fire-based attack thod once again, he was, indeed, taken aback.
So even though he blocked the flas of the [Abyssal Sea Lantern] with rule-based spells, "Gunblade" still hurriedly tried to distance himself from Costate, wary of anything within the flas that might exceed his understanding.
"..."
After desperately putting so distance between himself and the maid, "Gunblade's" gaze fixed on the [Abyssal Sea Lantern].
He felt that his caution was justified.
The lamp held by Costate was, without a doubt, a powerful item from the mysterious side. But through perception, "Gunblade" discovered that the power possessed by this lamp was also of an unheard-of magical nature.
Bright, scorching, with an underworld attribute, and involved in the soul domain…
Several contradictory and powerful attributes, coexisting within one item in a structure defying common sense.
"Gunblade" imdiately thought of Ronald.
Similarly, defying common sense and not adhering to normal spellcasting rules.
These strange and powerful things, never heard of before, where did they co from?
In the internal intelligence of the [Nine Commandnts eting], "Gunblade" had seen plenty of information on Ronald before. Any ti then, he considered himself powerful and didn't care much about them, but thinking back now...
The creature occupying the human body, its true origin seed related to another world?
In just a few seconds, "Gunblade's" mind rapidly analyzed.
He deduced with highly reliable and rigorous logic, but ca to a completely erroneous conclusion.
Ronald Adler.
Or rather, the monster that occupied this body.
Ca from a world fundantally different in rules from this one, yet could introduce those terrifying rules into this world, thereby triggering such contradictory and powerful forces!
In other words, "Gunblade" at this mont not only needed to fight the person before him as an enemy but also had to stand on behalf of this world to thoroughly defeat Ronald!
"Doll, you're betraying the whole…"
Boom—
The "awakened" "Gunblade" tried to persuade the unaware Costate over to his side.
But, unfortunately.
The maid had no intention of engaging in wordplay with him.
During those few seconds when "Gunblade" was pondering, Costate, leveraging her special combat state, had already summarized and devised her subsequent battle strategy.
And so, a chunk of charred rock was crushed by Costate underfoot, and the resulting large fragnts directly smashed towards "Gunblade's" front.
Thud, thud, thud!
Several muffled sounds in succession.
"Gunblade" was pushed back several ters by those seemingly unremarkable stones before he could barely steady himself. His body now showed visible injuries on the surface.
As a result, "Gunblade" hurriedly replenished new defensive spells on his body and, looking at Costate again, his gaze contained a hint of shock and disbelief.
"Hmm?"
At the sa ti, even Ronald, who was watching on the side, had a change in gaze.
Costate's ability was indeed formidable, managing with a single encounter to find a way to breach the enemy's rule-based defense.
Even Ronald himself couldn't achieve that level!
So, what thod did Costate use?
…
On another side, the maid re-engaged and continued battling with "Gunblade."
With superior physical qualities and battle experience, Costate clearly suppressed the enemies of the [Nine Commandnts eting]. Only because the opponent had assistance from up to three canons' spells, even though Costate could suppress her opponent, she couldn't claim imdiate victory.
Boom!
In the battle, neither party held back, and the resulting power and destruction were astonishing.
As "Gunblade" was forced to the edge of the floating island by Costate.
This [Nine Commandnts eting] caster, unwilling to be perpetually suppressed, waved his hands to launch an attack, attempting to force Costate to reveal a flaw.
The maid naturally did not hesitate, directly colliding with "Gunblade."
Thus, with loud noises and magic scattering, even an edge of this floating island started to crumble amidst their battle.
At this mont, Ronald noticed Costate's gaze as she maneuvered among the falling stones.
The maid seed to focus on her enemy every mont.
But, in fact, Costate's eyes lacked focus.
Whether attacking, defending, or deciding, all her actions were devoid of subjective thoughts and entirely followed processes dictated by spell constructs!
It suddenly dawned on Ronald, he finally understood Costate's tactic.
"So that's how it is…"
