Chapter 889: A Strange Warfare

If the angel were a human, this punch from Lize would have sent her to heaven straight away. But it was a pity that angels were much stronger than humans. After a few moments, the angel stood up shakily and caught Lize by surprise. The latter dashed forward with clenched fists to eliminate her entirely when suddenly the angel lifted her head and glared with furious eyes!

“Don’t touch me!”

The angel flapped her wings and burst into the sky, pushing Lize away with a powerful gust of wind. Although Lize was determined to end the battle, she knew that she was powerless on the surface. If the Wheel of Fate didn’t constrain spiritual powers, she wouldn’t have any issues dealing with Battle Angels even as a Cleric. But now, despite her half-angel bloodline, she was helpless in this situation. She placed her fists by her chest and jumped back to dodge a blade ray that struck from above.

“How… How dare you do this!”

The angel revealed a fuming expression with widened eyes glaring at Lize. The latter didn’t know why the former was so furious but she wasn’t in the mood to be concerned about her feelings. Because it was apparent that her enemy self had become serious.

“I will not lose. I want to win and bring Mr. Rhode back to my side! No one will stop me!”

This is getting troublesome…

Lize thought she could seize the chance to defeat the enemy when she was belittling her, but she missed the chance to deal the fatal blow. Lize gnashed her teeth and clenched her fists tightly while maintaining her calm expression. Her ‘master’ Mini Bubble Gum told her: “You shouldn’t reveal an expression that will leave the opponent feeling proud and arrogant. If you behave nervously, you will become really nervous. So you need to treat all enemies as ants. No, as lowly cockroaches! Mock them. Ridicule them. Infuriate them. Then, defeat them! Make those idiots die in their anger and delete their accounts forever!”

Although Lize didn’t understand what the final statement meant, she knew that all in all, she shouldn’t display her uncertain emotions as they would be a weakness for the enemy to exploit.

The angel launched her attacks which were much quicker this time, so quick that Lize barely resisted them. Lize was currently clad in thin leather armor, but after a few exchanges, there were obvious signs of damage on it. Even though she wasn’t hurt, she knew that she would be in huge trouble if this continued.

At this moment, she felt a breeze on her ear and heard Anne’s voice.

“Lize, how is it?”

“Anne?”

Lize was astonished. She subconsciously swept a glance to the side but couldn’t find where Anne was.

“Anne is having a hard time; this opponent is so hard to deal with. Anne came up with a great plan after hearing the angel’s words. Can you handle it, Lize? If you can’t handle it, you can come closer to Anne and follow the plan. Anne thinks it will work out fine.”

“Plan?”

Lize was surprised. In fact, she wouldn’t be hesitant if it were Marlene who suggested a plan. On the contrary, it was an entirely different matter since it was Anne’s plan. Perhaps after spending plenty of time in battle with Anne, it could be said that Lize understood Anne more than Rhode and Marlene did. Although Anne’s battle instincts were much greater than hers and Marlene’s, Anne often came up with strange ideas which frightened the Clerics and her. Even though the results usually turned out well, her random ideas just couldn’t convince her fully and all she wished for was to fulfill her duties as safely as possible.

But it was a pity that her wish didn’t come true.

… What plan does Anne have in her mind?

Blade rays erupted, but this time Lize didn’t dare to brace them. She sensed an unprecedented murderous intent from the menacing blade and also a powerful force behind it.

I have no other choices now. I can only give it a shot!

Lize dodged the brandishing blade and cautiously drew a distance apart from the enemy, at the same time moving closer to Anne. According to Mini Bubble Gum’s teachings, the most important element in battle was to not let the enemy see through her movements. If the angel did see through her movements, it would be easy for her to stop Lize. So then…

Even though Lize kept this in mind, it was impossible to communicate her thoughts to Anne as a human.

“Lize. Hurry up. Anne can’t hang on anymore!”

Anne’s yell resounded in the empty plaza that was filled with the clash of blades. Not only did this leave Lize anxious, but the others in battle also turned around. Then, they witnessed a burst of whirlwind that flung Anne out of it, and she coincidentally landed beside Rhode. At this moment, the berserker wielding two large swords darted out of the dusty whirlwind and headed for Rhode. The two red swords were like the fangs of a wild beast.

“Mr. Rhode!”

Lize shrieked in horror, but at the same time she heard the exact same voice from above.

“You! What are you trying to do to Mr. Rhode!”

The angel soared across the sky and brandished her sword to envelope the berserker in blazing silver flames. But shortly after, a strong red whirlwind erupted and dispersed the flames, and she walked out unharmed. This time, she focused her attention to the angel.

“I won’t allow you to harm Mr. Rhode! Mr. Rhode belongs to me!”

The angel pointed her sword at the berserker, her eyes glinting with unprecedented wrath.

“Mr. Rhode is mine. I will never allow any women to lay their hands on him!”

“… Target… Eliminate… Obstacle…”

The berserker growled and raised the two huge swords. The angel sulked.

“Alright then. How about this? I will kill all of you and bring Mr. Rhode back for myself!”

What’s this situation?

Lize gazed blankly at the commotion. After a few moments, she hurriedly ran up to Rhode and Anne.

“This…”
