Chapter 93: The Girls' Battle

  The dragon spirit in front of me spewed out a tangerine-colored flame.

  Brown hair fluttered in the flames.

  Asuna held up her arms with the Holy Sword of the Divine Dragon Slayer in hand, its tip pointing upwards.

  Absolute Sword Technique: Fourth Form: Flame Slash

  A sword technique inherited from the Dusk Witch, specializing in countering fire-based attacks.

  Akira Minato plunged into the sea of flames, wielding the sacred sword of Exorcism, her figure agile and nimble, her long sword dancing like a flame spirit.

  The flames all around were absorbed into the Exorcist Holy Sword with Akane's sword dance.

  "Cheers!!!"

  The Flame-Emblazoned Dragon-Slaying Holy Sword struck out at the flying dragon before it with a straightforward slash!

  "It's useless!"

  The vice-captain of Ryūjinshū, Yuri Elysse, shook her head at Asuka's attack.

  The Demon-Slaying Holy Sword chopped down on the Flying Dragon's head, emitting a sound of clashing gold and iron.

  The flames on the blade engulfed the Wyrmkin.

  "It's now!"

  Behind her, Kurea swung a long whip and fired several flame bullets.

  Linsley drew her bow and shot out three Breaking Magic Ice Arrows in an instant.

  All the attacks landed on the flying dragon's body, which was shrouded in flames.

  "It succeeded!"

  Kerrie's face lit up with delight.

  Suddenly `nothing` wrong `m.` became aghast.

  In the flames, the intact flying dragon stepped out and let out a long roar.

  "How...how is this possible..."

  "Well, after all, it's a dragon attribute spirit, and its resistance to magic is unexpectedly high..."

  Akane gazed solemnly at the flying dragon in front of her tomorrow.

  "Bad people who bully mom!"

  Kirito's angry expression was reminiscent of his time in SAO, with a massive flow of data streaming through his eyes.

  "Get dressed!"

  Seeing his daughter walk directly in front of Feilong, Akane immediately went forward to stop her.

  "Don't worry, mom."

  Yui raised her hands and gently clapped them together.

  "Bang, bang, bang——"

  Although the sound is very light, it is as if directly hitting a person's heart.

  Yuri Elucid felt a sudden tightness in her chest and dizziness in her head.

  "This is——"

  He violently shook his head to clear himself up, and Yuri was shocked to discover that his Flying Dragon Spirit had lowered its head to the ground!

  "How is that possible?!"

  The originally blood-red eyes of Fei Long Spirit had turned a dull gray, and data streams flickered in them just like the eerie little girl.

  "Being able to control other people's spirits!"

  Yui gently patted the Flying Dragon Spirit's head and immediately pointed at Yuri with her small hand, saying "Hit her!"

  "Ah!!!!!!"

  Let out a dragon's roar, the flying dragon spirit surprisingly turned around and started attacking its own master.

  He leapt up, dodging the flames emitted by his own sprite, and Yuri quickly began to chant a spell.

  "——The flying dragon soaring in the vast sky, the proud ruler!"

  "Hear my command, destroy my enemy!"

  The body of Feilong Jingling disappeared in an instant as a light spot when the spell was spoken, and immediately formed an axe gun in Yuri's hand.

  It turned out that using the method of transforming spirits into spirit armor solved the problem of spiritual loss of control.

  "Being able to think of such a plan in an instant, indeed worthy of being the vice-captain of the Dragon Emperor Knights"

  In her heart, Akane secretly praised Yuli's performance and swung her sword again.

  The holy sword of exterminating demons and the axe gun collided continuously, emitting a burst of sparks.

  Fierce sword dance, making it impossible for others to get close.

  "Kegi, you guys go help Eris first! I'm here!"

  "Good mother (senior)!"

  Nodding in agreement, Kaito and Linse, Kreer, etc. start to go help Alice.

  At the time when several people were entwined by Yuri, Alice was fighting alone against the remaining three members of the Dragon Emperor Knights.

  When she saw Yui and others finally arrived, Alice let out a sigh of relief.

  "It's really tough for me to be alone!"

  Alice, who was already wounded, parried an attack from a similarly armed sprite with her rifle and jumped to the side of Yui and the others, using her Wind Wing Rifle to support her weakened body.

  "Good job!"

  The situation was urgent, and Kreis was unusually quiet, without arguing with Eris.

  Alice's injuries also looked very serious.

  "Alice, sister, let me treat you first!"

  Kazuki reached out in front of him and gently placed his hands on Alice's waist. A pale blue glow flowed across the girl's body.

  Feeling the cool comfort spreading through her skin, Alice discovered that the wounds which had been torn open were healing at a visibly rapid rate.

  "That's amazing!"

  Although the divine energy consumed within the body cannot be recovered, being able to heal wounds on the surface of the body is also a remarkable ability.

  "Be careful, the opponent is not only strong in individual combat ability, but also extremely skilled in formation coordination techniques."

  "Well, it's the military after all!" Kurea swung her flame whip in her hand, and orange flames danced on her raised left hand.

  With a wave of his hand, several fireballs flew towards the three spirit masters opposite him.

  "You're playing with fire, you're still far from it!"

  The elf with the gun just shook the muzzle, and a scorching heat wave began to spread out, engulfing the surrounding grass and trees in flames.

  "Aquatic Demon's Cage!"

  Yui immediately cast the restrictive magic that had once trapped the military spirits, attempting to trap the three spirits within.

  "Mystic Ice Storm!"

  Drawing her bow, Linsley simultaneously shot out five ice arrows. The ice arrows exploded in mid-air, transforming into a multitude of blades!

  The earth suddenly cracked, and a sturdy giant tree spirit rose from the ground, its massive body directly blocking the three spirits. Linsley's ice rain and Kryer's fireballs hit the giant tree spirit one after another.

  Not a hair out of place!

  "Minas! Break this cage for me!"

  At the command of the Spirit Envoy, the giant tree spirit directly lifted its thick arm and heavily smashed towards Kecloak's "Water Demon Prison".

  "Boom!!"

  "Wow—"

  Yui's small face instantly turned pale, and the moment the Water Demon Cage was attacked, she didn't have time to cut off her connection with magic, resulting in a backlash.

  The Water Demon's cage was also smashed by a giant tree spirit with one punch!

  The destructive power of this giant tree spirit far exceeded that of the military spirit encountered on the flying ship.

  "Looking for death!!"

  Three spirits beside him suddenly tore open a black fissure filled with sinister eyes in the void.

  "What is this?!"

  A hand suddenly stretched out from the gap and directly grasped the spirit of that giant tree elf.

  Yakumo Sumi, who appeared from the gap, ignored his injuries and directly grasped the girl's neck with one hand, swinging her body in mid-air and slamming it heavily to the ground!

  "Let go!"

  "Let her go!"

  "Seductive demon!!"

  The two sharp claws of the demon swimming in the ink pool made the two elves who wanted to come forward and rescue their companions stop dead in their tracks.

  The girl who was pinned to the ground by Yakumo Suke, with her neck tightly grasped, endured the pain that felt like all her bones were breaking, and looked at Yakumo Suke with a terrified expression.

  The breath of death has never been so thick.

  He, isn't he fighting with the squad leader? Could it be—

  A golden tear fell on the girl's face.

  That was the blood oozing from the corner of Yakumo's mouth.

  "Dad!"

  Seeing Bayun Mo arrive, Jieyi was initially delighted, but soon felt an unprecedented wave of fatigue wash over her, and suddenly fainted.

  "Get dressed!"

  Yagami Mukuro didn't care about the girl who was pinned to the ground by him, nor did he care about his own heavily injured body. He rushed forward and hugged his own daughter, and because he had just seen Kudou get hurt, he hastily checked her body all over, then slightly let out a sigh of relief.

  First, she used her full strength to mentally control the Flying Dragon Spirit, and then was struck back by the Giant Tree Spirit, breaking the Water Demon's cage that had not yet disconnected from herself. Yui's spirit was already extremely exhausted.

  "How is Yui?"

  Because those three elves were being stared at by the charming monster, Kreara and the others also gathered around to ask about Yui's situation with concern.

  "It doesn't matter."

  Cold voice said a sentence, Bachyun Mo glanced at three trembling spirits on one side.

  "Your captain has withdrawn from the battle, and I'll send you on your way too - there are green hills everywhere in life!"

  "Boom!!"

  The spirits who were buried under countless thick logs falling from the sky, Yakumo Mukuro, carrying Kusazuri, headed to the battlefield of Akatsuki.

  "Great!"

  Gasping for breath, Yūri stood on the ground, holding a gun and an axe in both hands, looking at Asuza in front of her.

  "You're an incredibly excellent sword dancer!"

  "Thank you for the compliment."

  "Tomorrow, Akane's fingers gently stroked the surface of the Demon-Slaying Holy Sword for a while, then looked up and said: 'Are you still going to fight? You've already lost.'"

  "I lost!? How is this possible--!!"

  Yuuri was about to retort, but suddenly something got stuck in his throat, and he stared blankly at Akane's back with his mouth agape.

  There, in the flames, Yakumo Tsumi was standing with a shocking wound on his chest.

  In the distance, a pillar of fire shot up into the sky.

  "That's... the retreat signal!"

  Yuuri took a glance at Yakumo Mukuro and Ashitaka, gritted her teeth, and withdrew from the battlefield.
