Book 5: Chapter 194: Pursuit and Flee
No, I must escape!
Ness secretly resolved. After witnessing that heart-stopping scene just now, many of his previous assumptions were overturned.
The blonde girl is very weak? She’s only physically strong but slow? Come on, how can a person who swims faster than a fish be slow?
A normal person could actually move several times faster against air resistance than water resistance. If she was this swift in water, Ness couldn’t fathom her speed on land.
With that kind of speed and her monstrous strength combined….
Ness shuddered.
Could she be… another monster on par with Princess Estelle and Princess Luna? Oh my god, why are there so many monsters here? Is this year’s Martial God Tournament just a showcase of monstrous creatures vying for supremacy? Then why bother allowing the mortals to participate? Why not cage these monsters and have them fight for the championship? It’s not like doing that would affect the final outcome…
What puzzles me the most is why that monster sides with Princess Estelle and proclaims herself as the princess’ lackey. Wait… Proclaim? No, that’s not right. Something’s not right here! Something’s definitely not right!
The blonde girl kept claiming herself as a lackey, yet Lady Erica remained silent all this while. Is there a master who indulges their lackey like this? Besides, her true identity was shrouded in mystery from the start.
