"Phew …"
Bushi Cui took a deep breath and stared at the opponent in front of her. In front of her, Ren Sheng Zhaoxia was holding a katana that was even longer than herself, looking at her with a serious expression.
Both girls stood there, motionless.
There was only one chance.
As an opponent who had fought against her more than once, Bushi Cui naturally understood Morning Glory's strength very well. This petite and serious Cursed Child had the fierce fighting strength of a warrior, similar to her appearance. Once she launched an attack, she would transform from a silent and stubborn rock into a ferocious and scorching flame. But it was not so easy to reach into this ball of flame and snatch the chestnut from the fire.
But she would not give up so easily.
"…"
Perhaps sensing the change in Bushi Cui's eyes, Morning Glory clenched the katana in her hand, narrowed her eyes, and stared at the cat-eared girl in front of her. Bushi Cui was still wearing the triangular hat that Fangzheng gave her, which looked like a witch's, and her expression was so pitiful. But Morning Glory also knew very well that the one standing in front of her was the strongest person in the entire Dawnstar Palace, "Shadow Blade" Bushi Cui.
She had to be careful of her psionic attacks.
Morning Glory unleashed all her senses and raised her fighting spirit to the extreme. Unlike Summer Age, who specialized in psionic attacks, Bushi Cui's all-rounded specialization was quite tricky to deal with. Coupled with her elusive movements, she would fall into her trap if she was not careful.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, a cloud of black mist burst out in front of Morning Glory and instantly wrapped around Bushi Cui's petite body.
Now's the time!
Seeing this scene, Morning Glory hurriedly retreated. She clenched the katana in her hand and swung it forward. Along with the sweep of Morning Glory's sword, a red shadow of the sword flew out and completely tore the thick mist in front of her. But at that moment, the cat-eared girl's figure had disappeared without a trace.
Not good!
Just as Ren Sheng Zhaoxia turned around, the badge on her chest also cracked completely at this moment.
"Haa …"
Looking at the shattered badge on her chest, Ren Sheng Chaoxia sighed and shook her head.
"I lost."
"Wah …!"
"Both of them are so strong …!!"
At this moment, the cursed children who were watching from the side also began to clap and cheer excitedly.
"…"
Upon hearing Ren Sheng Zhaoxia's surrender, Bushi Cui turned around and retracted her long fingernails. Then, she lowered her head respectfully to Ren Sheng Zhaoxia.
"Sure enough, I still can't beat you, Cui."
"That's because your attack style isn't suitable for fighting me."
Hearing Ren Sheng Zhaoxia's sigh, Bushi Cui hurriedly waved her hand and showed an uneasy expression.
"Zhaoxia, your katana attack needs to be bigger to be threatening, but at the same time, the gap between attacks is also much larger. Besides … I can only defeat you because the school rules state that breaking the opponent's badge is considered a victory. But if we really fight, I'm afraid the result won't be so easy. "
As Bushi Cui said, in addition to her powerful strength, Ren Sheng Zhaoxia's biggest trump card was her "armor transformation". If Bushi Cui's target had been her heart or head, it would not have been so easy for her to succeed. Unfortunately, the badge pinned to his chest was a different story.
"Didn't you also not use psionic power?"
Ren Sheng Zhaoxia shook her head, obviously not agreeing with Bushi Cui's words. She knew very well that Bushi Cui, who specialized in melee combat, could even punch through a steel plate with her bare hands after applying psionic power. Even if she activated her armor transformation, if Bushi Cui was serious, it would be a piece of cake for her to pierce through her chest and pull out her heart.
"But …"
Ding Dong.
At that moment, a crisp bell rang. Hearing this sound, Bushi Cui, Ren Sheng Zhaoxia, and the surrounding Cursed Children shut their mouths and looked respectfully at the place where the sound came from. Soon, Hecate, who was holding a golden staff, walked over and stood quietly in front of the two.
"You've all performed very well. You deserve praise."
The Great Shaman's voice was as flat as ever, without the slightest fluctuation of emotion. But the Cursed Children were obviously used to Hecate's style, so they did not have any special reaction. On the other hand, Hecate gazed at the young ladies quietly and continued.
"Next, I have something to inform you …"
"… The Royal Navy Fleet?"
"That's right."
The corners of Tiria's mouth curled up proudly into a smile. She looked at the Cursed Children in maid costumes standing in front of her.
"However, this has nothing to do with us. You just have to do what you are supposed to do. Listen up, this ceremony is the first time the Heavenly Dao Palace will make an appearance in this world. You must not embarrass our elder brother. You must do your best, meticulously! Especially you … Firebell, can't you smile a little sweeter? "
"Of course I have no problem if I'm facing Master."
After hearing Tiria's grumbles, Reddew Firecracker gave her answer in a difficult manner. Tiria frowned.
"If that's the case, then you're nothing more than 'Big Brother's maidservant'. A real maidservant should be able to receive guests respectfully and with a smile … Forget it, but listening to Big Brother's words, three nothingness seems to be a kind of cute point … No matter what, all of you must work hard. Remember, this visit is a major event for the Heavenly Dao Palace, and all of you must work hard, understand?"
"Yes!"
"Very good."
Hearing the girls' answers, Tiria smiled and nodded.
"Then, maintain this posture for another hour!"
"Eh?!!"
"… New improvements?"
Xia Shi stood in front of the table, his eyes widened in shock as he looked at Nimf.
"But... Big Sister Nimf, the variable wing system has already reached its final stage. According to your opinion, shouldn't we start all over again?"
"As long as I work hard, I should be able to complete it in time."
Nimf replied while looking at the blueprint in front of her.
"This ceremony is very important to Master. We must do our best in every aspect."
"But we don't have enough manpower …"
As the most intelligent of the Cursed Children, Chishou Xiashi had already become a senior researcher in "Sinapus", second only to Nimf. She was now also acting as Nimf's assistant to assist her in her research and modification work. It was just that Xia Shi did not expect that Nimfu would completely overthrow the core design of the variable wing system that she had painstakingly completed after only three days of absence.
"Don't worry about that. Master has brought us a new helper."
"— — — —!"
At that moment, as if in response to Nimf's words, a strange object "floated" in from outside the door. It was a ball made of brass metal from head to toe. At the front and bottom of the left and right sides of its body, there were small circular halos that looked like big eyes. The little thing made a "beep" sound and circled around Nimf and Xia Shi like a small animal.
"What, what is this?"
"Master calls it Tanji."
Nimf quickly introduced it to Xia Shi.
