“Chen Yu, your group will be called group 1 while Aarim your group will be called group 2.” Shiro said over the mic while aiming her sniper at where the third prince’s group is.
Currently, all the guards were throwing skills around at their enemies which would cause the surrounding buildings to crumble. The citizens that hadn’t managed to evacuate earlier were panicking while trying to avoid the free fire.
“Tch, they have no regards at all.” Shiro muttered in annoyance while creating a silencer on the tip of the sniper barrel.
Narrowing her eyes at one of the mages that was about to kill a citizen by accident, Shiro pulled the trigger and sent a bullet through his neck and separated his head from his shoulders.
This allowed the civilians that were about to be killed some time to escape.
“Group 1, go 300 meters to your north and turn left. You should find a stray group that’s in combat. Once you’ve killed them, evacuate the area. If you can’t kill them within 30 seconds, just turn and run. I’ll sort them out. Group 2, make your way to the second building on your left. If you go on the third floor, it should give you a perfect vantage point to take out a few mages on the opposite rooftop.” Shiro commanded while gesturing for Yin to fly higher.
Aiming her sniper once more, she took out a few more stray mages before changing her location. Whenever she shot her sniper, her location would be compromised so she knew not to stay in the same place for more than one shot.
Both Group 1 and 2 managed to kill their targets but unfortunately some of the enemies spotted them so they were currently being chased.
“Group 1 make your way through the alley on your next left. Group 2 hold out for a little and buy some time. I’ll be giving you support.”
Patting Yin’s head, she had Yin dive down towards the battlefield.
“Yin, we’re going to fight on land for a few rounds. After that, we’ll be back in the air.” Shiro said with a soft smile.
“Sorry if I pushed you a little hard ok? I’ll reward you with some food later.”
Upon hearing the mention of food later, Yin’s eyes gleamed with greed and increased her speed.
Quickly adjusting herself so that she didn’t fall off, Shiro couldn’t help but smile wearily.
‘In the end, even rivalry can’t spur on Yin like food can.’ She thought with a roll of her eyes.
{Well it is what she enjoys, so naturally she’ll be more enthusiastic about food.} Nimue replied with a slight chuckle.
‘True. Also, Nimue, are you able to help me further regenerate some mana so that I can be more aggressive? Even with my passive skill regenerating everything within 16 minutes, I can do more if you give me a boost.’
{I’ll try. I’ve been improving your physique every day in order to help your mana regeneration. But since your mana links are still damaged, it’s a little risky to force it some more. That being said, as long as I’m careful, I should be able to give you an additional 5% boost to your regeneration. But keep in mind that this will only last for a short while so when you feel pain, tell me and I’ll stop.}
‘Thanks.’ Shiro smiled.
Flipping off Yin’s back, Shiro created a bow and pulled back the strings. Forming a magic arrow, she infused it with her celestial path along with Dark Star element. Ambient mana surged towards her and wrapped around the arrow, making it seem like a galaxy was formed inside it.
*BOOM!!!!
Letting go of the strings, the arrow left a trail of light behind it and pierced the attackers.
Killing them instantly, Shiro flicked her wrist and sent ice chains to wrap around Group 1 and the incoming group 2.
Just before they were pulled into the rift, Shiro gestured for Yin to attack the enemies that were behind group 2.
“Hehe, you better give me a buffet mum!” Yin grinned while spreading out her wings.
Clasping her hands together, a densely packed tier 3 magic circle could be seen spinning around her before flying into the sky.
“Burn f*cker’s burn!” Yin laughed while fire rained down and targeted the enemies.
Whenever they tried to put some magic defences up, the fire would consume the mana and burn even brighter.
“Language!” Shiro shouted back.
“Mum! You can’t say that, you’re the one who swears the most out of us!” Yin retorted while sticking out her tongue.
{She’s got you there.}
“She’s got you there.”
Both Madison and Nimue said at the same time.
“Oi.”
Pulling the party into the rift, Shiro had Yin follow behind them while evacuating the location. Since they’re focusing on guerrilla warfare, taking advantage of their mobility was a must.
As Yin’s Dark Star element burned bright, it attracted the attention of those that were at the peak of C class. Even in this chaotic battlefield, her fires were increasing in size.
“Who the hell released this spell!” Blythe shouted out in annoyance since the damage continued to spread.
“I don’t know your highness. It seems like another party of people has joined the fight.” One of his followers responded while erecting a barrier around them in order to block the incoming spells.
“Tch. Annoying. Morthil! See if you can track them down and take care of them.” Blythe ordered.
“Understood.”
Meanwhile, Keomi had sent a group of people flying away from the force of her punch.
“The thief is nearby.” She said with a frown.
Due to her tracking skill, she was able to tell when someone she had set a mark on was nearby. Now that she felt it again on the battlefield, she knew that the thief who stole her key was probably participating in the current battle.
“Which party is she in… the third prince or the second prince?” She muttered while parrying the attack of a nearby enemy. Pivoting on her foot, she punched their elbows, breaking it before kicking them in the lower spine.
*CRACK! PUSHI!!!!
The force of her kick not only broke his spine but also dissected his body in half. Blood spewed out of his wounds as Keomi grinned from the violence.
Cracking her knuckles, she focused her mind on tracking down the thief.
“Got you.” She muttered before leaping towards Shiro.
###
“Let’s see, since we’ve made quite the riot in this area, we should move closer to where the other princes are. From what I can see, we’ve taken out the first and third princes’ underlings so we should make our way to where the second prince is.” Shiro said while dashing through the rift.
“There are more level 100’s and above near the second brother so we’ll have to be careful.” Lyrica warned with a slight frown.
“I know. We’re only going to be hanging out near the edge of the battlefield so we’re not going to be too involved. At least I hope not anyways.” Shiro chuckled while lightening up the mood a little.
“True. But knowing you, you’ll probably draw out the strongest enemies and force us into a tough fight.” Madison joked.
However, just as she finished her joke, a pair of familiar hands ripped open the rift as Shiro quickly pulled the party back.
“Sup lil thief, this time you can’t run away as easily.” Keomi grinned.
“**** I was kidding!” Madison cried out since she didn’t actually want Shiro to draw out one of the strongest enemies.
“You jinxed it. Anyways, Yin, take the party out and fly up into the sky for now.” Shiro commanded while quickly making a small mask and charged at Keomi.
“Got it mum, stay safe. If you’re not safe, I’ll die and not get my buffet!” Yin reminded before dragging everyone out of the rift.
‘God damn it would have been fine if she didn’t mention food.’ Shiro rolled her eyes mentally while swinging Ataraxia at Keomi.
“Hou, you’re taking the initiative to fight me instead of running?” Keomi chuckled while punching the flat side of the sword.
*CRRR!!!
A crack appeared along the blade as the sword was sent out of Shiro’s hands.
Clicking her tongue, she couldn’t help but feel a little annoyed at Ataraxia’s low durability. Since the weapon could self repair, the downside was that it was more brittle compared to other swords.
‘I’ll need to ask Helion to fix this problem when I see him next time.’ Shiro thought while stomping down with her foot.
A tier 3 magic circle appeared and sent an ice spike shooting at Keomi.
“Futile.” Keomi grinned and shattered the spike with a single punch.
“Show me your real face!”
Flickering in front of Shiro, she twisted her body and tried to kick her in the face.
Shiro pivoted on her foot and avoided the kick. Even without being hit by it, she knew that the force of that kick was powerful.
‘Damn it, I want to show my face but there’s no way that you’re breaking my nose or something in the process!’ She protested in her mind while swinging Ataraxia at Keomi’s leg.
Deflecting the sword, a ‘gap’ appeared in Shiro’s defence, allowing Keomi to barely reach Shiro’s mask.
Kicking the mask, the force sent Shiro sliding back a few steps before stopping.
“BIG SIS!?!?!?”
