Chapter 1867 What do you plan to do with her?
Two Sovereign Level Beings stood together, their backs nearly sticking together as they covered for each other.
Both of them were surrounded by more than fifteen Sovereigns prepared to kill them. However, these fifteen were not what these two were worried about.
They had an entirely different problem.
“W-What are these women!? Where did they come from!? Do something about them!”

One of them shouted.
“What am I supposed to do!? Do you even hear yourself!? Do you not see them!?”
The other retorted.
“I AM seeing them! This is why I am telling you to do something! If this continues, it will be over!”
“And how do you expect me to take care of them!? Every single one of them is an absurdity! That woman who controls blood over there massacred my entire unit and turned them into her soldiers!”
“You do not understand! She is nothing! My men asked me if they should target the one who carries the sword because they thought she was one of the weaker ones. I agreed. Although it was a pity to use so many men to deal with one woman, I still allowed it since that might affect the morale of the rest, but…
One strike.
That woman killed all my men in one strike!
She then looked into my eyes as if knowing that I was the one who sent that army.
And do you know what she did after that!?
She walked away!
I swear to the lord that I saw her mouth ‘Too Far’ before she started killing people closer to her with a bored look on her face.
The only reason I survived was because I was too far! That woman didn’t even consider me a threat big enough to move and deal with on her own!”
Yes, the being was extremely shaken.
“The others aren’t any weaker either, especially that one!”
He pointed at the General hovering in the air, looking down on the battlefield.
She was the worst!
His body trembled as he realized what sort of monstrosity they were facing. Ever since the battle began, these women were never at a disadvantage.
It was a WAR, goddammit!
How is this even possible for them to not feel overwhelmed even once!?
But then, the two heard a voice.
“HAHAHAHA!!
I GOT ONE!”
With hopeful eyes, they turned and saw one of their allies who had appeared right behind a woman with purple eyes and hair, who was busy dealing with four Sovereigns and had no idea he was next to her.
Their eyes shined in expectation. They all knew they were going to die, but they wanted to at least kill one of these mercenaries before going to the afterworld, or at least see one die with their own eyes.
However, just as their wish was about to come true,
Pierce
A sword pierced through their ally’s chest, as a woman with fox-like ears appeared from God knows where and killed him without showing any expression on her face.
Sensing the movement behind her, Aisha turned around, and her eyes fell on Vulpiana. Looking at her bloodied sword and the dead being behind her, it didn’t take long for Aisha to realize what had happened. She, however, narrowed her eyes and stared at the fox.
“I will not thank you, Fox.”
“I did not do it for your sake.”
Vulpiana’s answer was quick.
“I did it for your mother. She will be sad if something happened to you.”
“Those are some grand words from someone like you. Don’t think I forgot what you said that day.”
Aisha wasn’t planning on giving up.
Vulpiana stared at the succubus and,
“I have apologized for what I did. This is a matter between Eisheth and me. You have no right to interfere.”
“Of course, it is easier to apologize when you got what you wanted.”
Aisha snorted.
“…”
Vulpiana turned silent.
Then suddenly,
Pierce
A sword pierced through the fox’s heart. Vulpiana, however, didn’t react to it. She simply glanced at Aisha and,
“Think whatever you wish. I will just say one thing, I am not your enemy.”
“You are literally a spy!”
Aisha retorted as she beheaded the man who had attacked Vulpiana. The fox’s body fell on the ground, but she just laughed,
“And who am I supposed to report to? The ‘incompetent’ leader of my race?”
As she said those words, her body disappeared.
Aisha, who was left alone, surrounded by enemies, screamed in anger as she released her Aura.
BOOOM
In an instant, she beheaded three of her enemies and,
‘I still do not like her.’
She snorted.
‘But you have to admit, she is strong.’
She heard Nux’s voice.
‘Sister Astaria is strong as well.’
Aisha answered. Nux, however, shook his head.
‘She is different. If she is hell-bent on hiding, even I would have a difficult time finding her, and I possess the knowledge of entire worlds.’
Nux answered.
‘…’
Aisha turned silent, and Nux continued,
‘It isn’t just a matter of ‘quality of energy.’ Her Law would work even against beings of a higher phase.
One would need a mind capable of comprehending the concept of time and space to even know where she is hidden. As for being able to reach that place and capture her? That’s an entirely different matter.
I can assure you, even if I am not here and the Primordials decide to attack, she will survive. And this isn’t the end of it.
Her Law is much more powerful and would become even harder to deal with once she explores it even further.
Temporal Distortion, the ability to alter the flow of time around herself, her allies, or her enemies.
Rewind Edge, the ability to rewind her own movements within a short timeframe, undoing injuries or repositioning herself in combat.
Time Fractures, the ability to freeze time between two places, allowing her to pretty much teleport from one point to another.
Temporal Confinement, the ability to trap the enemy in a pocket of frozen time, making them immobile and unable to act for a set duration.
She has already learned all this.’
Nux praised, and this time, Aisha couldn’t help but frown.
‘Nux…’
She called out.
‘What do you plan to do with her?’
The succubus questioned. At her question, however, her shadow just trembled, showed her a thumbs-up, and winked at her,
Not saying anything else.
