Chapter 1302: Unexpected Partners

Facing Karin’s words, Rhode paused and subconsciously turned to his younger sister and Marlene But it only took an instant before he diht Of course, if he chose Marlene, as one of the seven deity wardens, and his younger sister, as the foron, to help him, the three holy sword spirits would definitely be crushed nothey were After all, they were just card spirits of the holy sword deck and weren’t beings as powerful as the seven deity wardens and Void Dragon But… This wasn’t what he hoped for The goal of this battle wasn’t just to be victorious, but to gain the recognition of the holy sword card spirits instead If he used power to overwhelm them, not even he would be convinced of that win That hy he gave up the idea of picking his younger sister and Marlene

But it was also at that er sister and Marlene, he would be in real trouble for this battle!

Even though there were only three of theht, darkness, and elements respectively, which included alon Soul Continent Although he didn’t know anything about their battle skills, whether they were experts in long-range or close-coh for him to handle Same elemental attributes would cancel out each other and counteract a whole lot of power If he didn’t rely upon his younger sister, Marlene, as well as Canary and Mini Bubble Gum, who else could deal with the three holy sword spirits?

Anne? Yes, she was strong and had great instincts in battles However, she possessed the wind elemental attribute and if Rhode wasn’t mistaken, Dona should be a type of the berserker class, which was least afraid of violent assaults Her beast for from this point, it was obvious that Anne wouldn’t be able to resist her power Even if Rhode didn’t assign Anne to deal with Dona, the other two holy sword spirits, Catherine and Eleanor, were also ones not to be trifled with Anne’s wind elemental attribute was definitely no ht and darkness attributes

As for Lize… She only possessed some skills that she learned from Mini Bubble Gum, so he couldn’t count on her too much If Nell were here, perhaps she would be rather useful But it was a pity that she was ion, so he couldn’t rely upon her for any assistance…

ht, Rhode scanned the crowd from Canary, Bubble, Icy Snow, to Marlene, Alice, and Cassidy… He had a hard ti out anyone

At that irl from the corner of his eye She hid behind everyone and peered out at him ide-opened eyes She presented an anxious and uneasy expression, and at a glance, she looked just like a shi+vering squirrel Looking at this young lady, a thought cropped up in his estured to the crowd before him swiftly

“Lapis, co his words, not only did Lapis let out a shriek, but the others around her were also bewildered They knehat situation Rhode had gotten into and were all wishi+ng that he would pick theside him But they didn’t expect hi them!

“Huh? Sir, me?”

Even Lapis was in disbelief She looked to the left and right as though she were finding the other person named ‘Lapis’ Only when she confirmed that she was the only ‘Lapis’ did she extend her ar in uncertainty

“That’s right, you”

Looking at her reaction, Rhode didn’t speakhis command, Lapis nodded and walked out of the crowd hesitantly, before scuttling to his side and gazing at him She eventually didn’t say a word, but stood beside hi this decision, not only was Lapis stunned, but the rest were also flabbergasted Even though Anne grumbled as to why he didn’t select her, as she had a close relationshi+p with Lapis, she was rather worried upon seeing Lapis being chosen

“Can Lapis do it? Anne has never ever seen her fight Will she be able to defeat those three strange girls?”

“I’ Anne’s question, Marlene and Lize exchanged puzzled looks with each other and shook their heads Marlene and Lize spent the most time with Lapis apart from Anne But in their impression, Lapis didn’t have ht Lapis along when he sneaked into the Darkness Capital earlier, Lapis only served as a backend technician and basically didn’t get the chance to fight She noreek Although the threats of the alchenized by the rest, her threats as a fighter… Not even Anne believed in her strength

Of course, the rest surely werethat not even Anne, Marlene, and Lize understood Even the younger sister also twitched her brows in surprise and looked at her elder brother curiously However, she didn’t say a word, but withdrew her gaze after looking at him quietly instead She trusted her elder brother a lot Since he had chosen Lapis for this battle, she knew that he had his reasons for it

No matter the discussion of the crowd, Lapis was still the one standing by Rhode’s side This also astonished the other holy sword spirits After all, they followed hi time and more or less knew the capabilities of this alche her to her grave, right? This fool can’t even defeat my demons, so what did you even pick her for? As a meat shi+eld, huh? Well, that isn’t a bad choice then Anyway, the big sisters surely wouldn’t be too vicious against her”

It was apparent that Celestina didn’t think highly of Lapis In her impression, this alchemical elf had always been the one rescued by her s of demons, such a life was only meant to be used and throay as trash In other words, not worthy of a rumbles, Celia puckered her brows and instinctively tried to rebut But the moment she opened her mouth, no words left her throat It see better to say

As for the other partner…

“Miss Stefania, can I ask you a favor?”

After confir at the young lady who had little presence As usual, she was donned in a black and baggy cloak, s scene from afar She was the plane merchant whom he met in the Seven Fantasy Boundaries, Stefania

Ever since Rhode brought this unfortunate plane merchant, who couldn’t leave this continent due to the existence of Chaos, back to Grandia on his return to the Dragon Soul Continent,and no one knehat she was up to Despite that, she did see a plane s Even in the face of trouble like Chaos, Stefania seemed to only watch the drama unfold from across the river

But Rhode also knew that he couldn’t force her to do anything On the surface, even though it seemed like Stefania really couldn’t leave, the truth was that she couldn’t leave in the ‘normal’ way It was just like when one couldn’t find the key to the door, the door wouldn’t be able to open But on the other hand, if one were to break down the door, wouldn’t the door still be opened no matter if it was unlocked by the key or broken down? However, as the risks were too huge, just like the Creator Dragons opening up the plane channel teleportation door and trans, none of them knehere they would be swept to And this was Stefania’s only trouble

She didn’t belong to this world to begin with, which hatever happened to this world had nothing to do with her By sticking around, she would have the chance to leave this world using a proper channel If the Dragon Soul Continent were to fall to Chaos, she could siht away; it was just that she wouldn’t knohere she would end up

So there was no need for her to live and die with the Dragon Soul Continent In that case, she also wouldn’t possibly do anything to help Rhode

This time, Rhode was left without a choice The three of them on the other side encoon Soul Continent If he didn’t consider the power suppression on his side, he wouldn’t have inal selves of Canary and Mini Bubble Guh they came from Earth, their classes were still the native classes of the Dragon Soul Continent Canary was an ele that she would be overpowered by their opponents Meanwhile, Mini Bubble Gum didn’t have it any better either After all, she was just a cleric and would be caught off guard by the light attribute All the spiritual spells of a cleric were also of the light attribute, so hoas it possible that she wouldn’t be countered? Perhaps her skill that could s an itch to Catherine

In order to deal with them, Rhode had to send out surprise troops that disassociated froht, darkness, and eleood fit because her time and space abilities coincidentally fell under none of the three main attributes But unfortunately… She was one of Rhode’s Phantom Guardians and wasn’t available

That hy Rhode could only do the very opposite and find someone who basically didn’t participate in battles for help

Anne and the rest didn’t knohat Lapis’s abilities were, but Rhode knew As a hts before, but within the systeh her specializations, attributes, skills, etc Judging from the data, he believed that Lapis would do just fine in battles

However, Rhode never dared to send her into battle, not even in the Darkness Capital The reason was simple He was afraid of death Not the death of Lapis, but if he were to be swept into her attacks, it wouldn’t be worth losing his life at all

But now… With the younger sister, he wouldn’t die that easily, right?
