Chapter 197: Akeno’s determination
“Hā…Hā…”
With one hand on her waist, Akeno panted palely. Although she avoided the vital areas at the last moment, the attack left a long bloody streak on her body. Not only that, but other parts of Akeno’s body were also covered in various sword wounds and magic burn marks, all of which are the injuries from her previous battles.
“Give up, Himejima Akeno, you alone cannot fight us,” Shinra Tsubaki said calmly, standing with Hanakai Momo.
As a fellow [Queen], Akeno was an opponent she respected. Although it was a bit underhanded to attack one person with two, it was not a fair duel between them now.
For Sona, they had to win.
“Give up… It seems that maybe I should think about it,” Akeno said, laughing at herself, and took out a Phenex tear from her bosom, which Rias had given her before the battle, for her to use in critical times.
Frowning, Shinra Tsubaki and Hanakai Momo didn’t stop their attack. But staring at the Phenex tear in her hand, Akeno was unsure of her next move.
“In this state, even if I use the Phenex tears, I may not be able to hold out until my friends arrive,” Akeno thought, “I’m really a useless woman. Although everyone trusts me, I can’t meet everyone’s expectations.”
“So……” Akeno exhaled, and as if she had made up her mind, she threw the Phenex tears into the air.
