Crackle! Thud!

At the very last moment before her Flame Barrier expired, Skada used her carefully reserved Backward Evasion. With this, she managed to momentarily escape from Rain’s range of attack.

Bwoom.@@novelbin@@

But Rain didn’t give her a moment’s respite. As soon as she noticed the increased distance, Rain’s sword began to shimmer with starlight, and a ferocious wave of sword energy hurtled toward Skada.

Crack! Boom!

“Ugh!”

Her Flame Barrier and Backward Evasion—two invulnerability skills—were already spent in a flash. The only tool left in her arsenal was Frozen Prison, a party-wide protection skill.

Shatter! Crash!

Skada’s body froze in place, immediately struck by Rain’s relentless sword energy.

Swish.

Through the scattering starlight in front of her, Skada caught sight of Rain approaching rapidly, sliding across the ice with ghostly ease, leaving faint afterimages behind.

The mystery of her movements still hadn’t been solved. Skada knew Rain’s body should be slowed by the chilling effects of Ice Age. No matter how skilled a swordsman she was, Rain couldn’t be immune to status effects imposed by the “system.”

Then what was this movement?

“…!”

Skada’s gaze instinctively dropped to Rain’s legs, and at last, she understood.

Sliding?

No.
