Chapter 97: 15-year-old Inglis and Hyrule Menaces' Escorting Directive (5)
The tide of battle didn’t change after that. Whenever a new Magic Stone Beast emerged, either Inglis or Yua would be the first to strike before the other students finished it off. Pure physical attacks were ineffective against Magic Stone Beast as their bodies would only twist before they healed up. However, as long as Inglis and Yua could create a small gap in their movements, it would give Rafinha and other Knight students enough time to deal the finishing blow.
There was a reason how Inglis could always launch a pre-emptive strike. It was because she could sense the flow of mana that served as an indication whenever the beast emerged. That was why she could make a move one-two steps ahead of everyone else.
And Yua, who could match with Inglis’ movement could also feel the same flow of mana. Just what was this girl? Her aura differed from that of a Hyrule Menace.
Was she a Highlander? But then, she didn’t have a Stigma. Was she perhaps a Divine Knight, much like the Black Mask from the Ironblood Chain Brigade? But Inglis couldn’t sense Ether from her. It could also be that she hid her Ether, however.
At this point in time, Inglis couldn’t say anything for sure. All she could say was that she didn’t know anything.
And that’s precisely why it’s intriguing. Coming here from the rural Ymir is a good decision, after all. The people I wish I can fight against are a dime a dozen.
「Everyone. I think it’s all right now. The phenomenon has stopped for the time being.」
Declared Theodore who was watching over Ripple’s condition. As he said, Ripple who was enveloped in the black hemisphere light had returned to her previous state.
「Miss Ripple!」
