She could sohow manage to remain alive, but it would be impossible for others. With that in mind, she imdiately charged toward the black monster. A second later, she reacted with surprise when she glanced to her side.
Whatre you thinking of going off by yourself?
Before she knew it, the blond man was keeping pace with her.He caught up to ?Even the imperial guard couldnt keep up with her speed, yet this stranger matched her pace with ease. Nonetheless, there wasnt ti to be surprised because the black monster soon ca into view.
Okay, Im here now, but Tania faltered. Whats next? Cecile had been the one who dealt with this creature last ti. Tania rembered the empress had whacked it with her scepter, so she clenched her fists tightly and readied herself. After all, the only weapon she had was her physical prowess. Leaping over the festivalgoers fleeing in terror, she landed in front of the black mass and hurled a punch at it.
Splob. It was a splob, instead of asmack. The oozing, mud-like body of the creature simply absorbed the impact and enveloped Tanias fist. Her eyes widened in shock. Almost instantaneously, the upper part of the monster morphed into what resembled spears and pointed towards the handmaiden.
Its going to attack!Tania thought in horror. She raised her arms to brace for the incoming attack, but at that mont
Will you please be a little careful before attacking!
The blond man whod followed next to her suddenly appeared out of nowhere, caught her by the waist and rolled both of them to the side. And not a mont too soon! The morphed spears from the creatures upper body bored into the ground at that sa mont in the exact spot Tania had just stood.
Its troubling that a stranger is acting so friendly, but thats sothing that can be discussed later!Tania quickly scrambled back to her feet and pounced at the monster again. Her previous attack had managed to halt the monsters movents.For now, I need to buy ti while the people run away. I dont know how far I can last by myself, but
Although it would be a stretch to keep the creature at bay forever, she could at least buy so ti for the festivalgoers to escape. She was certain that the emperor and empress must be nearby sowhere, so all she needed to do was hold out until they arrived on the scene.
Hey, Ill hold it back, so you concentrate on attacking!
The mans shouts yet again interrupted Tanias thoughts, and she wondered incredulously,That man still hasnt run away yet?She gaped at the blond man, who continued to yell at her as he skillfully dodged the monsters attacks. To her surprise, she was relieved when she saw him in action.Hes capable!Although she didnt know the extent of the mans strength, he was capable enough that she didnt need to concern herself with his safety.
As the monsters attacks resud, the pair reacted swiftly, seamlessly blocking and counter attacking. It was definitely the first ti they fought together, and yetOur teamwork is perfect,Tania marveled. She couldnt believe it. They were so in sync, it was as if they were long-ti partners. When the blond man blocked, Tania would attack, and if she took defense, he would switch to offense. There wasnt any need for any communications or even an exchange of glances. It was a mystery how they complented each other so well.
A mory suddenly surfaced in Tanias mind from when she was scolded by her mother long ago.
Didnt I tell you not to fight however you please?! You cant keep charging in alone. You need to learn how to cooperate with others!
In the end, her mother had been the only person in their province that was capable of fighting together with her.
I cant be battling by your side for the rest of your life, can I?the margrave chided.Taking into account that youll have to inherit the province later on and protect these lands, you need to find soone who can fight well at your side for the rest of your life.
If I do find soone like that, then what?
Drag him over and bang I an, hold onto him tightly. Never let go. You think its easy to find a man who can match the won of Kaniche?
