CHAPTER 60: ART OF THE ASTRAL BLADES

SERENA MAIZONO

1 ½ YEARS AGO

Lothar Pendragon is the Hero of Elysia and the inheritor of the power of the ancient knights that once protected the Dragon King. I saw him fight as a Yamato Dragon before, and honestly, I don’t think I have a chance unless Senpai has a countermeasure to his swords and teleportation magic. Forget Senpai for now, as he’s not here. I have to focus on the fight alone. I don’t know if my partial Elform transformation will do any good against him, but it’s worth a try.

“Fraulein Serena.” Lady Danielle grabbed my attention. “We will be your support. You will do all the offense, and leave the defense for us.”

“Yeah, I agree.” Alphonse scratched his head. “I don’t want to say this, but only you have the power to fuck that shit up. So throw all you got at Lothar, okay?”

I nodded with full determination and energy. “Lady Danielle, Sir Alphonse… It’s an honor to be the striker of this team. Thanks!”

“Heh!” Alphonse laughed. “Be grateful that I’m allowing you to do this. If Xenon is here, I wouldn’t authorize you to be our attacker. You and your moron dragon knight would be stuck on the defensive role forever.”

I think Alphonse only see Senpai as a punching bag bait for enemies.

“Tres Bien, Serena.” Danielle smiled. “Now let’s do this and fight.”

“Right!” I pumped up.

I looked at the top of the building where our enemy; Lothar Pendragon is situated. He is giving a cold glare with his lifeless eyes. It is obvious that his mind and soul are suffering from his past, but still, it doesn’t hinder his intention to kill us all here and now.

“Three versus one, huh?” Lothar muttered. “I’m outnumbered, but I suggest calling more reinforcements on your side. That would not be enough to even defeat me on my human form.”

“I’m going to shove those words right to your fucking arse!” Alphonse cried. With his chains, he picked up a ruined pillar from a nearby destroyed building and threw it to the Elysian hero.

Lothar does not have the slightest intention to evade. He used his oversized buster sword to deflect the gigantic pillar, shattering the debris to thousands of pieces.

With such a small amount of diversion time, Danielle and I took the opportunity to approach the enemy. Danielle used her fans to fly forward, while I use Forge to create daggers and throw it towards the wall of the building. I used those daggers to teleport myself into the upper floors using my Blink magic.

“You have great coordination skills,” Lothar said as he pointed his buster sword towards me. “But it is not enough. Murasame Blade! Yasaka Blade! Yagami Blade! Release!”

Suddenly, Lothar’s buster swords dispersed into three smaller swords that rushed towards my position. Those swords are no ordinary weapons as I can sense sealing magic on each of them. I’ve seen his sword pin down Z and Nathaniel on their dragon forms. If I get a hit, there’s a high chance that my body will be paralyzed!

“Haaah!” I managed to forge a sword in the nick of time and deflect the first blade. The problem is, I don’t have enough time to repel the second and third swords that are rushing towards me.

“I won’t let you!” Danielle flapped her fans to redirect the flying direction of the two swords. The gust of wind she created made the swords stuck on another building’s wall.
