Chapter 98
Crack! The horrific, visceral sound of bones being crushed echoed through the air.
"Arsia?!" Aris screamed in horror, but it was already too late.
In an instant, the scene had unfolded. All of their eyes widened in shock as they faced Morione.
"Ah —! Oh —?!!" Arsia, the head of the academy, was reduced to a mere shell of herself in a split second, her scream cut short by the brutality of the attack.
"How...?!" Even Erina, who usually had good situational awareness and reaction speed, swung her sword in a desperate attempt to retaliate, but...
"She's gone...?" By the time Erina had reacted, Morione had already disappeared, and when Erina regained her senses, she was merely swinging her sword at thin air.
"Your attacks are now clearly visible to me..." Morione reappeared, maintaining a safe distance, casually adjusting her axe and adopting a confident stance.
"Revelation Heal." This brief respite allowed Luceria to cast a high-level healing spell to treat Arsia.
"Ancient God... Just now, I could have easily ended you. Hundreds of futures where you die helplessly flashed before my eyes." Morione's voice was filled with intimidation as she lifted her axe again.
