Chapter 989
If Rhode were a large wheel that braved the waves, Canary would be the elegant elf who flew along with the wind with her long mage robe. She appeared behind the lion-headed devils gracefully, the sword coalesced from flames piercing toward the lion-headed devil. The lion-headed devil turned around as soon as it realized the danger, deflecting the blade with its dagger. The smile on Canary’s face remained unchanged. She swiftly drew a circle with the sword, which sucked in the dagger like a magnet, forcefully changing its trajectory. Then, her sword suddenly transformed into a lightning bolt that struck at the devil.
But contrary to her movements, the powerful gust of wind that erupted from the blade sucked in everything in its path. The lion-headed devil couldn’t resist the powerful force and lost its balance. At the same time, the mysterious wind suddenly vanished, while Canary increased her speed and punctured the scarlet blade into the lion-headed devil’s throat. But…
————!
She failed to penetrate the throat. Instead, the loud sound of friction rasped and sparks scattered. The scarlet blade in her hand was deflected. The lion-headed devil let out a wry laughter, extending its claws forward to shred the human into bits.
Canary didn’t flee in a panic. Instead after, realizing that her attack failed to deal the lethal blow, she charged into the embrace of the lion-headed devil in a green airstream. Then, she extended her left hand and clenched the air. All of a sudden, powerful gusts of wind erupted, blasting the lion-headed devil away.
Pow!
The powerful airflow threw the defenseless lion-headed devil away, crashing to the wall. Meanwhile, the metal guards were thankful to have this prey falling into their territory. They released dazzling light beams at the pathetic lion-headed devil, but the lion-headed devil snarled and dodged the attack nimbly. At the same time, another red brilliance shone in its face and penetrated its right eye.
“Oooooh!”
The tremendous pain left the lion-headed devil screeching in agony. It extended its claws, slashing at the human in vain. Suddenly, its entire world was smeared in red as an unprecedented heat and violent storm erupted in its skull, blasting its brain into rotten chunks of flesh.
“Oh, my goodness…”
“Great, activate it!”
Rhode commanded, leading Celestina and Canary away. Meanwhile, Karin extended her right hand and pressed the buttons on her hilt.

Along with a spell that was as strange as an electronic sound, the entire teleportation ritual suddenly transformed.
