Chapter 144
Magave chase through the dark sky
Receiving winds so strong the ic barrier couldn’t suppress them, Rudel looked behind him
“Sakuya, it’s about tiin ascent!”
Rudel’s plan was simple
If the eneht where there ater
He led the ht sky to distance it far from Celestia
Sakuya’s four wings swayed grandly
She rose as large fireballs passed right beneath her
As the le large eye
Under the eyelid as if the eye itself had been divided vertically, what looked to be an eye of flesh… it bore the eye of a lifeform
Even when its body was ma, he questioned why it didn’t burn
‘That thing’s persistent!’
Sakuya co her
Rudel observed it with a serious face
(If ant to take it out in a single blow, our best bet’s to get into close combat and drop it into the ocean Hoe hit it down… explosions just bloay parts of its body, the rest isn’t affected)
Looking at the e close combat
Even with Sakuya’s fists, their enema
Her hands would stick into the monster’s body, and Sakuya would be scalded
But to get off with such little da after all
Sakuya entered a cloud
As his vision greorse all at once, Rudel issued orders to Sakuya
“Sakuya, break through the clouds!”
‘Yeah’
Sakuya shot straight up through the clouds
But there, thefor them
‘I hate this thiiiing!!’
On Sakuya’s directional change, Rudel leaned over and gripped the handrail off so as not to be thrown off
As the scenery around hi pace, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes
“Just for a little while Sakuya, take the wheel… head towards the ocean”
‘On my own!?’
Hearing that voice on the brink of tears, Rudel opened his eyes and stoe to throw out that idea
Rudel’s eyes were ic eyes
As he closed his eyes, they gradually began to emit heat
By flowing ic into them, he could imbue them with various effects
While Sakuya hurried to flee, Rudel waited for his preparations to be readied
A sudden rise, a sudden turn
It was hell clinging on to not be thrown off
(I should’ve used the belt)
Repenting on his actions before he closed his eyes, he finished up preparations and opened them
A red light dwelled in the pupils as he gazed at the monster
“Kuh!”
Narrowing his eyes, he tried scanning the ma for the monster’s true form
“What’s this… hundreds, thousands of people are crying out?”
Hundreds of huled, imprisoned
Captured by a stone in the ma
(Are those the sacrifices? And who’s that in the center of the stone?)
That soul in the shape of a woman looked at Rudel from within the stone
His ic eyes focused and showed her form in vivid detail…
“She looks like Cleo… no, I guess it’s the opposite”
He recalled the painting in the king’s room
He re with an unnatural space left in it And the painting of the queen as well
“The previous sacrifice was the queen, was it? Which means&
rdquo;
All the captured, squir souls were related to the royal house
A prison of spirit even death couldn’t escape
The e
Rudel took a deep breath
“… Sakuya, can you see that?”
‘If Rudel can see it, then Sakuya can see it too We’re connected’
To a proud Sakuya, Rudel,
“I see Then you knohat I want to say Alongside the ”
Rudel touched Sakuya’s body with both his palms
Feeling out Sakuya’s beat, he used his own ic to control it
He still wasn’t accustomed to it, it felt all too unnatural, but this was no time for hesitation
Glaring at the monster, Rudel…
“I’ll free you now”
As he put that to nia surfaced over Sakuya’s body
Rudel used his own h her body Under her four wings, a new gold-glowing smaller pair manifested
A nued Sakuya’s tail
As if covered in golden gauntlets, y manifested around her fists
‘I’ll show you serious Sakuyaaa!!’
To intercept the monster, Sakuya held her position in the air
Readying her two large fists, she took on a fighting pose
As the e mouth to produce fireballs, Sakuya opened her athered stones or fired breath attacks from it, but this one was different
A nu right off towards the monster
The fireballs the monster shot were taken down by water one after the next
As water andout of sight
“It won’t go down the same as before”
After saying that, Rudel called out to Sakuya
“Go!”
‘Yeah!’
While she had been running away to that point, Sakuya started straight towards the monster
Rudel’s ic eyes captured its sinister form
Sharing Rudel’s vision, Sakuya slammed her fist into the beast
The water hit first, and she aimed her attack into the portion that had hardened The black luauntlets had h
Hurdling back, the le eye left and right to search out the dragon’s form
Circling around beneath it with a nosedive, Sakuya went into a steep climb…
‘Handed down froain?’
Having forgotten the nae fist into the enemy’s body
Theinto the air upon receiving the impact
And with speeds greater than before, Sakuya chased after it, putting both her fists together and lifting theht above the monster to lower them
