(This mana... this must be Father's...!)
lville, who was in the body of Edith, sensed the presence of soone she knew, and she imdiately teleported herself towards the location, which was situated beyond the walls of the capital. "Fath—?!"
However, as soon as she reached the spot, lville widened her eyes, finding out that the person before her eyes was not her father at all; it was a completely different person. She was greatly disappointed and then went furious, distorting her face. "Who the hell are you?! Why did you have his presence?!" Before her was a young man, and for unknown reasons, his aura was exactly as identical as her father's. She could not comprehend how he did it, but now that it ca to this, she had to seize and then interrogate him. The young man in the question appeared to be in his teenage years, sowhere in the late teens, and he possessed hair as black as an onyx. Even though he was gently smiling, his vivid red eyes glead at her as if the blazing hell were staring at her very soul. "Answer ?!" lville got inpatient and yelled, pointing her finger at him. "I order you to state your na!" "Fufu." The young man's chuckle eerily reverberated in the area. "If you want to know my na that badly, then I shall fulfill your wishes. My na is Azrael, and I was tasked to get rid of you." With an elegant bow, Azrael introduced himself, and he even spilled out his intentions. Initially, lville was annoyed by his confidence and arrogance. But if her Analysis told her that this young man just exceeded a thousand levels, probably evolved into a High Human recently, and only had one Ultra Skill, then this Azrael guy barely posed a threat. "Ha! Do you think you can defeat ?" "It doesn't matter, but I did not expect that Edith Felsvorder would show up before . So this is probably why I could not pinpoint where you are. You are inside this girl's body." "Don't you dare ignore ! Tell why you have his mana!" "I am not tasked with answering your questions, but if you really want to, then you have to do it over my dead body." In a flash, Azrael suddenly disappeared from his spot. However, lville could still perceive that he was in the forest, probably implying that she should follow him. "You are quite stubborn, huh? Then I will give you what you want." The wind blew, and lville vanished from her position.

I might not be able to find her, but I had a way that I think was effective. If I could not find her, then I had to lure her to instead. With that, I utilized my abilities to imitate the mana of the person who gave power to Prince Richard. I next teleported outside the wall and perford so magic spells to release that mana in the air.
But before that, I had to change my appearance and identity as well, since I did not want my enemies to know that I was against them. I also wanted to make sure my family would not be dragged off by this problem. Since almost no one was aware of the existence of Azrael, I disguised myself as him to cover my identity, copying his level, stats, skill set, proficiency, biological information, deanor, etc. The lure was set, and it turned out that she took the bait, but what really surprised was that it was Edith who appeared in front of , or was she? From what I had observed, she seed to be sowhat different from the Edith I know, though there were slight similarities, like her deanor when Edith was with Prince Edward. If Edith ca here, I could conclude that this person had taken control of her body. It probably explained why Edith seed different when it ca to the prince; not only did they force Edith, but they also physically manipulated her. Currently, I was in the heart of the Vagoth Forest, waiting for whoever possessed Edith to co over to my location. I decided to take our confrontation far from the city to minimize collateral damages.
For so reason, I could not look deep into her to analyze the identity of this person. She probably had an ability or sothing that intercepted my appraising skills, even with God's Eye. A few seconds after I landed on my spot, Edith appeared behind . I turned around and faced her. If she could use instant transportation, then she must be a powerful individual. "I don't know how you pulled up this mockery, but you do not seem to be my sibling, and my father won't let any of his children be deprived of him either. Anyway, I'll just have to force you to admit." "A sibling? What are you talking about? There's no way I can be a sibling with you. Whoever you are, I'll make you leave that girl's body so that I can punish you personally." "Try it if you can." Upon her provocation, she lunged at with insane speed. Her whole body then emitted blue lightning and thrust her hand at , which I reflexively avoided by stepping aside. But before I could land, she quickly shifted her course and aid her dazzling hand at . In an instant, I conquered Azrael's weapon, which was a scythe with an Umbrium handle and a five-foot-long blade of Blood Steel, and successfully blocked her sowhat hardened hand. Clink!
After clashing my scythe with her, Edith stepped back. "You are fast; I'll give you that. But don't feel relieved, as I am yet to get serious." "Let's see what you get this ti." Suddenly, I could feel a huge surge of energy building up in Edith's body. In a matter of seconds, that energy was released violently, and a powerful shockwave took down so trees nearby. I covered my eyes with my arms, but when I laid my eyes on her again, I could see that her appearance had sowhat changed.
