Book 19: Chapter 70
“Send Princess Liu Yue back! Send Princess Liu Yue back!!” commanded Ying as she watched the guards drag Liu Yue back.
Daisy emotionlessly diagonally slashed an opponent then kicked him away before wiping the blood off her face. She found battle amusing. At first, one wouldn’t dare to kill; however, once one killed their first target due to their risky predicament and anger, the sense of glory and the wild instinct of a human being calmed them, and joy kicked in.
Soon enough, Daisy killed a second and a third person. Daisy never lacked the skills to commit murder. Under Elizabeth and Nier’s tutelage, she already reached an exemplary level with her swordplay. The hurdle was her peaceful life that kept her ruthlessness from surfacing. Daisy wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt her sister, which was why she killed for the first time.
Daisy drove her sword through someone’s chest for the first time. She watched him taking his final breaths and listened to his cry of despair. She smelt the blood that splattered on her. She had an urge to cry when she blood that sprayed. Nevertheless, the fear and excitement of successfully cutting down her prey overwhelmed her and motivated her to mow down her next target.
Daisy was the descendant of Nier, the most outstanding Valkyrie. The violent nature of Valkyries had always dwelled deep within her soul. She perceived her enemies to be lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
While the guards protected her, Liu Yue groaned. They had finished with emergency treatment, but the pain still radiated through her body. Both of her legs were wounded. She couldn’t even sit without feeling excruciating pain, let alone stand.
Nona stayed next to Liu Yue and quietly chanted a magic spell, but she was a fairly weak elf. Her mana was far inferior to her sister’s – not to mention the city seemingly lacked any traces of mana for some reason unbeknownst to her. Hence, Nona had to resort to using her sparse mana reserves to heal her sister. Nona looked as white as a sheet. With sobs of despair, she cried, “I can’t… I can’t… This is all I can do… It’s all… I’m sorry… I’m sorry… Liu Yue. Liu Yue… I’m sorry… I want to save you. I want to save you… Sorry…”
Nona did her best, but she was an ordinary elf at the end of the day. Lucia never used healing magic as she was aware she lacked the mana required for it. Liu Yue’s wound shrunk minutely. All Nona managed to do was reduce the blood loss.
Liu Yue struggled to raise her head. She gently shook her head. She revealed a barely noticeable smile and weakly said, “I’m okay, I’m okay… I… I’m okay…”
