"Do you really think that I will give it to you? After doing so much to obtain it?" Taking a look at the girl flying just right behind me, I almost fell down to the ground due to the shock making it a bit harder to control my repulsion.
"I don't care what you did for it, but you will return it to me now." This time, there was no fake bravado behind the girl's words. Just an ultimate dedication and determination. Without any further ado, the girl rushed forward.
Clang!
Her sword bounced away when stumbling into the outer barrier or mine. As much as I treated this girl in particular as some kind of a naive goofball, seeing how cracks appeared on one of the three barriers I had erected around myself, I had no other choice but to acknowledge her strength.
After all, even the man with the black wings from before was incapable of shattering my shield as quickly!
Poof.
