Chapter 26 - Lucy finally took it out?

"At this rate, we are just going to exhaust ourselves and lose"

"We have to do something to eliminate the supporters who are hiding in the back and giving troubles"

"But, the tank and the fighter are holding our attacks very well because of them"

Those kind of thoughts were filling the minds of the red team. They had become panicked and nervous as neither their plan nor attacks were working. They were starting to think that it was pointless to attack as the time passed.

"Grr!!"

Boom.Boom.

Because of those thoughts, their attacks became sloppy and rushed and the difference in both strenght and moral between the two team were getting wider and significant as the battle went on.

Boom.Boom.

Lucy's fists were flying through the battle as if the falling sakura padals filling the air.

The invaders were now getting attacked and became the defensive side as the moral and confidence of blue team got higher and highter not to mention their strength.

"Arg!"

Malik had to desperately constructed an earth shield and could do nothing but blocking the flying .

Boom.Boom.

Behind him was Gozen who was neither tough or agile to the attacks. So his only choice was to rely on the tank and hide behind his back.

Whoosh.Whoosh.

Asper was making use of her wind-like speed and moving and leaping around to dodge the ruthless consective attacks of Lucy.

As for Honda's case, he was nowhere to be seen or hit in the battle.

"We need to do something to turn the tide" Malik thought as he was getting pushed back by the attacks.

"Asper" He shouted to call for the assassin.

Whoosh.

With the sound of wind, Asper appeared behind him.

Boom.Boom.

"We are going to steal the flag. Can you make the daughter of Yostar stops her attacks for a second? Then I will keep them busy and in the midst of the chaos, during that time you go and steal it"

Asper nodded in agreement.

Whoosh.

She disppeared again and started to move in circle surrounding the blue team to search the weak point.

Boom.Boom.Boom.

Lucy was spamming her by throwing the punches burning in pink flames consecutively. She was especially in high spirit because of skill of Fins and skill of Gringer.

: as the name suggests, the spell regenerates the soul energy of the target. But it takes a huge amount of soul energy for the user everytimes it is used.

Whoosh.Whoosh.

"I can't find a single opening in their defense" Asper thought as she was circling around the battle.

Both of the supporters were on alert observing every movements of the battle and the tanker was in a battle stance in front of them ready to take the strikes from all the directions. They were very systematic and cautious even though the momentum of the battle of on their side.

But they were forgetting something important. Very important that it could cost their victory on the line.

Boom.Boom.Boom.

"Miss. Lucy's plan worked out perfectly." Fins said.

"Yes, as expected from the family who specializes in fighter"

"Don't let your guard down. We haven't won yet" Alver interrupted the conversation the supporters were having.

"B-but, I sure hope that she won't spam her spells like that" Gringer whined.

She was the one who was providing all the soul energy Lucy had used up with her spell. With the soul energy multiplier robe and spell amplification staff added to her orginially large soul energy pool because of the nature of a supporter, she was healing both the physical bodies of her teamates and soul energy they needed.

"Hey" Fins' voice.

But they did not catch that.

"Hey" he raised his voice.

"HEY!!"

"What?"

"Don't shout like that near our ears" Alvar complained.

"Hey-hey" Fins hit Alvar's shoulder with his left hand again and again without taking his eyes off the red team while wearing an anxious expression mixed with fear.

"Just what is wrong with you?"

Fins pointed the battlefield with his right hand.

"Isn't one of them missing?" he said faintly.

"What?" Alvar could not suppress her impatientness and asked loudly.

"Yes, tell us clearly" Gringer also supported Alvar.

Fins pointed to one member after another of the red team while counting in a low voice.

"1" Malik who was constructing one shield after another as he was desperately blocking .

"2" Gozen who was hiding behind Malik like a helpless person.

"3" Asper who was moving surrounding the battlefield while running with wind-like speed as she searched for the weakness.

"!?"

"Where is the fourth one. The last one" Fins looked around and search for him while extending his neck to its limit.

"Just what are you spouting"

"There is a member missing in the red team. The ranger" He shouted furiously.

"What?" both Alvar and Gringe were surprised and looked at the red team.

"True" Alvar said.

They relaxed faces was starting to get tense as the anxiety was starting to overwhelm them.

"Wait I will use around the battle" Fins said as he matained his cool back.

"Miss.Luc.. !??"

Gringer called out to Lucy to warn her but she halted her action as she noticed something behind her back.

"Haha, got you" with the omnious voice suddenly appearing from her back, it was too late to even respond.

Whoosh.

The sound of a slash could be heard faintly in the moment of slow motion the whole battlefield went through because of the events that happened so fast in a split second.

Thud.

"Ackkkkk!!!"

With the sound of something dropped on the ground, Gringer bursted out a piercing scream from the bottom of her heart as she pressed the wound where unstoppable blood were flowing out with her left hand.

Her wooden magic staff was lying on the ground. Beside it lied, a flesh hand which was freshly cut off from the shoulder. It was Gringer's.

"Haha, my spell lets me stay invisible for 3 minutes and the effect only wears off if I attack or the time is up"

Honda said proudly as he was holding a knife in the hand which was given to him by Asper beforehand.

"Now!!!!"

The battle was filled with the war cries of the red team who did not let the chance slipped by.

The blue team were startled and stunned as they were looking at Gringer with a shocked expressions wearing on their face.

They did not move an inch as if they were frozen. Their minds were filled with useless thoughts about how their supporter was taken out suddenly. They were searching for their mistakes they could possibly made.

However, the time was too late.

Boom.Boom.

"What the fuck are you guys doing?" Lucy shouted as she was desperately defending the consective attacks of Asper who rushed toward her the moment she got the chance.

Clank.Clank.

She swang her short blade from left to right and top and below. She spinned her body and swang her blades like a tornado of blades. She ran, leaped, spinned and twisted her body from place to place searching for the weakness of Lucy as she continued her ruthless attacks. As if she was dancing with two blades as a accessory for her dance. The swings were fast and quiet like wind and the footsteps were soundless as a cat.

"Earth cannon" the moment Lucy stopped her attacks, Malik undid his shield construction and started constructing countless numbers of large and small canons out of the earth in front of him. All of them were aiming at the blue team with their deadly canon holes.

"Fire!!"

Boom.Boom.Boom.Boom.

With the thunderous command of Malik, all the canons started firing cannon ball made of earth toward the blue team base. The sound of the explosion caused by the attacks shook the whole forest and sent the chills to the spines of everyone who heard it.

Boom.Boom.Boom.

"Get a hold of yourselves" Lucy shouted in the midst of the chaos.

"I have to disable the canon firing of Malik. In the midst of all these explosions and noises, there is no way Alvar and the other can calm down and focus. I have to do something"

Slash.Slash.Slash.Slash.

However, Asper did not give Lucy a chance to think for any plan. She was attacking relentlessly with her dances. In addition to Asper's attacks, Lucy also had to repel the scarlet arrows released by Honda.

The rising of dust around the battle caused by the unstoppable firing of the canons started to cover the battlefield and block the visions.

"Asper!!"

Malik let out a roar notifying the assassin.

Whoosh.Whoosh.

With the sound of the wind, someone was piercing through the thick dust like an arrow.

It was Asper who was trying to capture the blue team's flag while everyone's visions are blocked.

"Grrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The long piercing war cry of a girl could be heard on the other side of the battle. The weather became windy and rough. The tress were swaying left and right and the birds were flying away while making chirping scream. The enormous pink shining aura was erupting in the middle of the war cry and the powerful impact coming out extinguished the dust which was blocking the vision in an instant.

Everyone present at the battle had to cover their eyes while holding something firmly so that they won't get sent away by the impact. Gringer who only had one hand left was being pulled desperately by Alvar.

The aura calmed down as the dust were lifted, In the middle of the battle, a standing figure of a woman in full armor plate could be seen. She was in a jet-black magnificent armor which covered her body. Spike were sticking out of her shoulder and joints areas and there was a pink cape attached to the back and was hanging until it reaches the legs. She was wearing a dark short skirt which covered half of her thigh and on the foot, a pair of dark long armor boots could be seen.The natural pink hair color and the opposite of brightness, black color, dynimically supporting each other's beauty to stand out. Her appearance alone was intimidating and beautiful as pink and black colors were floating in the air and dancing beautifully because of the flowing wind.

To describe her apperance in one word, there is no word more befitting of it than "MAJESTIC".

That was Lucy Yostar and her unique item .
