Just like the others, Gracier was shocked by Alice's move, in their previous fights, she had never used this move before, so this must be something new.
While normally this would have frightened her, on the contrary, Gracier was happy; even without turning around, she could feel Alice's sword aiming for her back, in a second would pierce her flesh and deal severe damage, yet she never lost that smile she had.
''Mirror!"
Calmly Gracier used dragon tongue to bend the world's will to form a shield behind her at the last moment, but as if she knew Gracier would do that, Alice was not surprised the white sword vanished and reappeared before Gracier.
Alice had just used her space ability to teleport her sword to bypass the mirror; instead of striking from behind, she chose to do from the front instead.
