Chapter 139 - The Ark Of The Blade And Shield (2/2)

”Protection of Nightshade,” chanted the Commander, forming a concentrated cloud at the Time Mage's attack.

The two attacks started to fight with one another, in an attempt to overwhelm each other. The disgusting color of Old Man Pond's nearly consumed Raiyen's vibrant attack until a huge metal thing soared through the air and divided the two attacks.

As the huge metal returned to its owner, Raiyen looked at Mavislin questioningly. Catching the thing with ease seemed to impress Baldwin, who stood at the sidelines.

He had long decided to not interfere if the partners were fighting alongside each other. Or fighting each other. Both ideas were bad in his dictionary.

”And since when you were able to throw Lord Atlantia like a discus?” asked Raiyen, placing his hands on his h.i.p.s.

The shield landed with a clang as she stabbed it into the soil.

”I was getting bored of waiting for you all the time, so I'd decided to invent a new way of passing the time,” she replied.

”You mean when you are happily destroying towns and doing the sweeps with the Guardians?” asked Raiyen, rather sarcastically.

”Why is my mother's hobby inclusive of killing others?” asked Nova, terrified at what she'd just heard.

”Long story. By the way, don't look for me for answers as to why Mavislin behaves like this. I haven't got the faintest idea. I merely came along as a teacher figure for her powers,” explained Ysabeau, as nonchalant as her kid down below.

The Valkyrie smiled as she held the shield above her head and threw it at Old Man Pond. He dodged it with ease, though the area that he once stood in was abolished.

”Looks like we finally got him to move,” said Baldwin, panting.

”Don't celebrate just yet. This will be the first and last thing you get out of me,” said the Commander, changing his Aura slightly.

Raiyen then fired another attack of his special move, Luminera Nova.
