The golden knight sword and the grey greatsword, at the moment of collision, couldn't completely connect.
There was a few centimeters distance between the swords.
Inside, the space distorted, producing a crisp sound, like a vibrantly shattered mirror.
In the narrow gap, it seemed to hide an infinite universe.
Time seemed to pause.
Boom!
After a second of stillness, the golden knight sword was bounced back by a massive rebound force.
Milien seized the opportunity to roll away with Yi Lin, tumbling dozens of meters away.
During the roll, Milien reflexively used her armor to absorb the slight damage caused by the tumble.
Because in her mind, Yi Lin's body was very weak.
Connor retreated a few steps, his face showing shock, due to Milien's sword.
Milien endured the pain in her body and mercilessly removed Yi Lin's mask.
"It really is you!"
Milien's tone was both joyful and sad.
Her joy was because she could reunite with Yi Lin here.
