Streaks of black shadows darted through this spacious hall.
Ganbo Tomoe intended to use such means to interfere with Liliana's perception. Indeed, he didn't know what kind of means that silver-haired girl possessed, but that single strike just now had already proven that she was by no means simple.
Such a cautious sneak attack was easily parried by the other party. It could be said that she either possessed some kind of ability or had mastered detection-type techniques. Of course, the most serious point was that she possessed an absolute sensory ability that allowed her to easily find his figure.
The five figures continuously circling Liliana were Shikigami woven by the section chief of the "True History Compilation Committee", Tokyo Branch, Sawamura Masahiko. Every single one, whether in terms of aura or appearance, was an exact replica of Ganbo Tomoe, without the slightest difference. They could even feign agony and not attack. And their high speed, enough to leave afterimages in the air, was absolutely not to be underestimated.
However, even so, even with such powerful Shikigami, their purpose was merely to confuse Liliana's senses. Once Liliana decided to use her sensory abilities, the Shikigami would immediately approach, pressing her with no choice but to defend. Such a puppet, though crude, was extremely practical.
Although extremely shameless, it nevertheless firmly restrained Liliana, preventing her from unleashing her full destructive power.
So, what to do?!
Watching the swiftly moving afterimages, and the agony being thrown from them, Liliana could only struggle to endure.
However, she absolutely had to resolve them. The silver-haired girl bit her lip lightly, the hesitation in her eyes transforming into resolve. Then, she raised her long sword horizontally!
She glared at the five black shadows, seemingly trying to find the true Ganbo Tomoe. But there was no way. Their speed was too fast, and she couldn't find an opportunity to analyze them.
Then, she would resolve them one by one!
She bit her teeth fiercely, her slender jade feet lightly tapping the flat ground. Then, she stomped down heavily! Like an instantly accelerating sports car, unparalleled speed directly enveloped the young girl.
Next, was the impact. Her silver hair danced freely in the air due to the immense speed, her figure a blur of dazzling silver light.
With unparalleled speed, Liliana's heavy body absolutely slammed into an afterimage with a ferocious impact. Finally, the holy sword in her hand was swung without any hesitation.
Such an enemy, even if it had no warrior's glory, was enough to make her unleash all her true power.
And then, an explosion. It was an explosion that only affected a few meters, an explosion that was not within the range.
The Shikigami exploded directly before Liliana's Holy Sword could strike it. By proxy, Liliana was also fiercely blown away by the gust of wind from the explosion.
Truly, too naive.
Ganbo Tomoe couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. Indeed, this young girl was extremely powerful, both in terms of strength and martial arts. Coupled with her recovery ability that could rival the highest-level techniques, it could be said she was incredibly formidable.
However, in contrast, this young girl, who was far from having combat experience similar to a hero or a warrior, was clearly showing her weakness. Even such crude puppets could be effective without any hesitation, which clearly exposed this young girl's weakness.
But just as he was secretly delighted, a trace of disbelief once again filled his pale face.
Not a single trace of damage. That's right, not a single trace of damage.
Although the power of the explosion wasn't great, an ordinary person would easily be blown to smithereens. However, there was not the slightest injury on the young girl's body.
Only her pale blue and jet black knight's uniform was slightly disheveled.
"How… how is this possible!"
Ganbo Tomoe suppressed the shock in his heart, but the fear in his eyes still leaked out. With such a strike, even he would suffer heavy injuries, but that young girl seemed to have not the slightest injury. Not to mention injuries, there wasn't even a trace of scorching on her heroic and cool knight's uniform.
That was 'Magic Release.' A way to release magic power. It could both strengthen one's physical capabilities and simultaneously enhance the sharpness of weapons. Of course, it could also naturally enhance one's defense.
Although the advantage was that it didn't require preparation and was extremely convenient to use, its efficiency in utilizing magic was far inferior to even the most basic of magical techniques. It could be said that it was discarded by every magician, a crude method of magic manipulation.
However, if paired with a Heroic Spirit, that would be tens of times the magic power of an ordinary human. In such a situation, even the most wasteful ability could be utilized.
It was precisely this method that blocked the explosion just now.
"Truly troublesome."
Liliana gently squinted her pale blue, jewel-like translucent eyes, and a trace of disgust involuntarily seeped into them.
Indeed, such methods were truly terrible. However, there was no other way.
The young girl gently bit her silver teeth, then, repeating her trick, pounced towards a black shadow. Then, there was an even more intense explosion. Explosions, explosions, and more explosions.
A series of rumbling sounds, along with thick smoke, filled this spacious hall.
Her long hair on her head was slightly disheveled, and her clothes had a touch of gray and black. Liliana manipulated the magic power within her body, which belonged to a Heroic Spirit, and then swung her sword without the slightest hesitation.
In an instant, gusts of wind spread around her, dispelling the dense, oppressive smoke. Then, as the thick smoke that obscured vision was blown away, what remained was the grand hall, like shattered ruins. And five jet-black figures.
"What, is this the limit, little fellow?"
It was a male voice with a slight laugh, as if mocking Liliana's ignorance. And looking at the still five figures, a drop of cold sweat involuntarily trickled down Liliana's fair forehead.
The previous ambush clearly destroyed five Shikigami, but the number of enemies remained unchanged.
"How many of these Shikigami have you prepared?" Liliana couldn't help but sigh, her eyes flickering with immense helplessness.
What answered her was a mocking voice. "It might be hundreds, or it might be dozens. Of course, this might be the last of them."
That slightly hoarse male voice echoed in this large hall, as if mocking Liliana's naivety.
"So, Sword Fairy of Italy, how many more can you destroy?"
