The snake that had gulped Altashi+a started exuding fiery red light, which spread from its sto before the snake cried in pain before its body burst like that of a water balloonPa nda

Novel Instead of a temporary escape, Altashi+a chose to destroy the snake without worrying about her mana consumption When she came out of the snake's belly, the spectators saw that she was still fine and not even drenched in water But a large volu out of her skin and clothes

The weapon attacked on its ohile the reh-pressure stream of water in Altashi+a's way Meanwhile, Rodrick started nature he was releasing at this point was even more intense than before

"Miss Altashi+a, you'd pay dearly if you keep on underesti his speed ofthe attacks of the sword and the water snake, heard that and looked in the berserker's direction while narrowing her eyes on him

Rodrick had changed his attack style since he had fought Altashi+a He had cos and decided not to approach the warrior girl like the last ti able to use the explosiveness of berserker attacks But at least it prevented hithat Altashi+a was proficient with her scythe would be an understateress in the way of the elee, she was able to defeat Rodrick easily He couldn't fill that large of a gap even with his transcendent-grade weapon due to his limitations

Rodrick had lost badly in his previous battle against her And he had to admit that she was a superior ranker than him in more than one area of expertise If he was any other ranker, he wouldn't have challenged Altashi+a unless he was sure he could beat her

But as a royal, he needed to keep up appearances Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to survive the politics andfor him This duel was no different than a battle for survival for him
