Chapter XXXVI. - Remembering

"So you finally give up, Lucia?" Priscilla asked, her voice seething with rage.

"Never." The girl with blue and white hair shook her head, then her eyes lit up blue. "And my name is no longer Lucia. I am the Good Witch Azura, and I will do my best to save you Priscilla!"

Priscilla's eyes widened at this, but then she quickly shook her head.

"As you wish, Azura..."

In the next second, Priscilla's tentacles extended from her back to grab Azura, but the blue-white haired girl was on her guard. She jumped away from the tentacles into the air, then swung her left arm as she fell, which sent dozens of ice shards flying straight towards Priscilla. The gray haired witch gave a powerful kick with her foot as a giant black spike burst out of the ground, blocking the path of most ice spikes, only to make Priscilla lose sight of Azura. The gray-haired witch girl quickly kicked her foot again, causing the black spike to sink back into the ground. As soon as the tip of the spike was at the same height as Priscilla, Azura suddenly appeared, jumping over the spike and throwing herself at the gray-haired witch. The two girls fell to the ground and rolled several meters together before Priscilla finally managed to push Azura away with her foot. The girl with blue and white hair ended up on her back on the ground, but immediately got back on her feet. Priscilla wanted to do the same, but she just couldn't move. The gray haired witch girl quickly looked around with her eyes and saw spikes of ice piercing through the edge of her clothes, which then pinned her to the ground.

"Do you think this can stop me?!" Priscilla roared angrily, then a pair of tentacles emerged from her arms, which immediately began to pick the ice spikes out of the gray-haired witch's clothes.

"No," Azura shook her head. "But this can."

With that, the blue and white haired girl waved up with both hands, and ice grew from the ground around Priscilla, completely covering her. Only the head of the gray-haired witch girl was visible from the ice. Seeing this, Azura approached Priscilla and stopped at the head of the gray-haired witch girl.

"It's over Priscilla." Azura said.

"Is it over?" Priscilla asked in a bloodcurdling voice. "After all, the real fight is just beginning!"

Azura then noticed that the place where the ice covered Priscilla's hands suddenly began to glow red, and the next moment the ground beneath the two girls exploded. Azura and Priscilla fell into the pit together, but Priscilla managed to get out of the pit with the tentacles coming out of her back. Meanwhile, Azura shot ice spikes into the wall of the pit all the way to the top of it while falling, then the blue-white haired girl grabbed onto one of the ice shards and climbed out of the pit as fast as possible with the help of the protruding ice spikes. However, Azura didn't even have time to breathe because Priscilla immediately sprung into action. She aimed her hand at the blue and white haired girl and then lifted her up. Azura immediately found herself in the air and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get out of Priscilla's invisible grip. Meanwhile, Priscilla moved closer and closer to Azura, her fingers closing tighter and tighter. At the same time, Azura screamed in agony as the invisible force holding her began to squeeze her.

Priscilla was only a few steps away from Azura when she started coughing up blood before Azura felt her grip loosen. Taking advantage of this, the girl with blue and white hair flicked her tail, which started to rain spikes of ice on Priscilla. The gray haired witch girl couldn't react to this in time, so she was hit by Azura's attack. The ice spikes injured Priscilla's body in several places, and she screamed in pain and fell to her knees. Thanks to this, the invisible force holding Azura was removed and the blue and white haired girl managed to land on her knees on the ground.
