Chapter 106: The Enigma Auction Showdown (7)
It was a given that the conditions were in our favor.
They were two. We were three. They were the ones in a hurry. We were the ones with time on our side.
On top of that, we had holy magic, the ultimate anti-undead weapon.
It was only natural that, at some point, the Vita sisters, growing impatient, would expose a fatal opening.
And there was no way that Alice and Tamamo, both possessing genius-level combat sense, would miss that moment.
Tamamo broke through their sturdy defense. Alice deflected their sharp sword strike and, in one swift motion, sliced straight toward the neck.
There was no need to see any more—the battle was decided right then and there.
“N-no way... I... lost... to such inferior beings... Mor—te... sir....”
Vita's eyes widened in disbelief as a thin white line formed on her neck.
And then, her head slipped off her shoulders, rolling helplessly across the floor.
Even if Morte himself, the necromancer, were here, he wouldn't be able to reattach it. It was a decisive and irreversible strike.
Maybe it was because she had confirmed the victory with her own two eyes—Tamamo’s ears perked up as she shouted joyfully at Alice.
