Chapter 302

Everything started when Ais chased after a suspicious person who she thought was the killer of the Level 4 adventurer. When she finally caught the woman, she saw this woman was a chienthrope, and her age wasn’t that old, so it should be a girl instead of a woman.

While Ais was suspicious and ready to fight, the girl broke down and told everything that had happened. She didn’t mind listening to the story of the girl since even if the girl wanted to escape, the girl couldn’t be with her besides.

However, after the story ended, Ais realized everything was a misunderstanding.

Level 4 adventurers and this girl, whose name was Lulune Louie, were suddenly tasked by someone to deliver the mysterious package. However, who would have thought the Level 4 adventurer who was a collaborator of Lulune suddenly died.

Lulune knew she was being targeted, and she couldn’t do anything except run away, especially when everyone also thought of her as the most suspicious. While it was partly the reason why she ran away, she also felt it was better to be judged by Ais, who could listen to her instead of being judged by the whole crowd. After all, she knew if she appeared in the crowd, not only would she become a public target, but she would also become targeted by the killer!

Lulune didn’t want that, and she just wanted to go home, so when Ais asked about the content of the package, she gave it to Ais without hesitation and didn’t even care about the people who gave her the request. After all, her life was in danger now!

Who cares about a damn package now?!

Ais opened the package, but her heart stopped when she saw what was inside.

*Badump!*

Ais didn’t know why. Her heart trembled, and she was in shock. She felt the blood inside her veins jolt because of the thing inside the package.

What was inside the package was a translucent orb with an embryo of a monster.

As Ais stared at this orb, the embryo opened its eyes and jumped out. Fortunately, she dodged it, but it happened to latch onto the man-eating flower that happened to be on their sides.

Then, everything went like before, a humongous humanoid monster mixed with a plant born and destroyed everything, chasing after Ais.

On the other hand, Lulune had already run away, saving her life without hesitation.

However, Ais didn’t care about Lulune since her opponent was not only the monster but also had to fight a mysterious person who suddenly appeared and attacked her!

If it was before, Ais might have had trouble, but under Tsukasa’s guidance, she had become stronger!

While Tsukasa took care of the monster, Ais fought against the mysterious attacker.

Their fight became even more intense. The clock and the helmet of the mysterious attacker were also gone. What was left was the beautiful face of the attacker.

The attacker was a beautiful woman with blood-red hair and cold green eyes.

When the two fought, Ais realized the difference in their power, and this fact shocked her since she was weaker!

“You’ll come with me, Aria,” the woman attacker said coldly, staring at Ais.

Ais was being pushed, but she quickly regained her clarity since even if the difference in their power was obvious, and this attacker might be a Level 6, it didn’t mean she didn’t have a chance to win.

When the attacker tried to attack Ais, she was dumbfounded when she saw Ais suddenly disappear, but she quickly felt danger and used her broadsword to block an attack from the side!

Being pushed, the attacker looked at Ais in shock. She was about to counter, but suddenly Ais disappeared again and appeared at her side!

After being trained by Tsukasa, Ais could use the Trackless Steppeared as if she had disappeared when in fact, she used a movement technique where her attacker would subconsciously ignore her.

However, this wasn’t the end.

Ais relentlessly attacked her attacker like a storm.

However, this caused contempt for her attacker, and she used her blade to block Ais. The difference in their power was obvious, and her power matched those Level 6 adventurers, if not better, so Ais, who was only a Level 5 adventurer, wasn’t her opponent in terms of speed and strength.

That should have been the case, but her attacker wanted to cough blood when Ais’s attacks were so unpredictable. She thought it was fast, but then suddenly it became slow. When she thought it was slow, it would become fast. This unpredictable combination messed up her mind, and it felt like this swordsmanship was like magic.

‘What the hell?!’

This was the swordsmanship taught by Tsukasa.

The combination of slowness and rapidness would break the habit of one messing up the brain.

The rapid blade might be good, but after one had gotten used to the speed, they could block the attacks easily.

However, if it was mixed with the slowness, it would make one’s attack pace unpredictable and impossible to read.

Their brains couldn’t react and their movement stagnated.

It might have only been a month since Ais was taught by Tsukasa, but she learned a lot from him. However, it was hard to break the habit, so she wasn’t good at this combination of rapidness and slowness. It also caused her to create an opening that was used by her attacker.

However, this didn’t scare her since Ais could deflect the force behind her attacker to the side.

“Aria!” Her attacker screamed, causing Ais to squint her eyes.

Ais had been curious at how this woman could know her relationship with Aria, the wind fairy. However, while she was eager to know, she knew it was impossible for this woman to answer her question if she asked her politely, so this time, she was going to beat her thoroughly before asking her!

Ais was about to stab her rapier, but suddenly an accident happened.

The place where they fought was on the top of crystal shard ground, and when one of those crystal shards was destroyed, it caused Ais to lose her balance.

The attacker used this chance to smash Ais away!

The booming sound was heard, and Ais was thrown far away.

Her entire body was numb, and her bones almost broke. More importantly, she couldn’t move!

Her body was screaming in pain, and Ais knew she needed to get up, but she couldn’t!

“I am going to finish you, Aria!” The attacker raised her fist and slammed it into Ais!

‘Move!’

Ais tried to move her body, but she couldn’t, and she could only watch the woman’s fist approach her face!

Ais didn’t doubt that once this fist arrived, her head would turn into mincemeat!

Somehow, Ais felt her life was moving like a movie frame, her memory clear, and she remembered clearly her memory with Tsukasa.

‘Tsukasa!’

Ais screamed his name since she wanted to see him!

Ais closed her eyes and waited for the fist, but she didn’t feel anything. It was too quiet, so she opened her eyes, and she was full of happiness when she saw someone in front of her.

However, the woman couldn’t feel happy since her right hand flew tens of meters away, chopped by Tsukasa.

“Can you dance?” Tsukasa asked calmly, but this was what made it scary since his eyes were full of coldness.

*Shudder!*

‘I’m going to be killed!’

The woman thought at this moment.
