You Have a New Job (Continued)

Yae Sakura's figure fell from the sky, and the blood that flew out formed a red line in the air.

"Cherry!"

Durandal caught Yae Sakura's hand in time and lifted her up.

"Sakura, how are you?"

"Cough! It's alright, I won't die... But this can't go on, the gap between us is too big, we'll be defeated one by one."

"You've come up with a solution."

"Give it a try."

Yae Sakura nestled against Durandal's chest, her blood-stained lips curving into a gentle yet resilient smile.

Durandal was startled. Before she could think any further, Yae Sakura, sword and all, vanished into a cloud of black smoke. The smoke then surged into Durandal's lance.

"This is..."

"Durandal, use me as I am, trust me!"

"Good!"

Durandal wasn't one to hesitate at crucial moments. She immediately gripped the Black Abyss White Flower, which was emitting black flames, gathered her strength, and then shot out like a rocket.

'Wow, there's even a way to combine like this?'

'Isn't this all to help you get used to this body as quickly as possible? Enough talk, let's get started.'

Anqi's eyes narrowed, and she revealed a serious expression. She stretched out her hands, palms facing Durandal.

Durandal hasn't even received her ride yet, and is far from reaching the peak of her life, but the enhancement of Yae Sakura 'Jizo Mitama and the power of the Herrscher of Death allows her to directly surpass the peak of another timeline.

"Boom!!!"

Black flames blotted out the sky and devoured the light, creating a terrifying atmosphere of apocalyptic devastation for the crowd below.

This attack forced both Anqi and Durandal back, but the former retreated with ease while the latter retreated in a disheveled state. In conclusion, however, Durandal had already reached the level Anqi possessed.

'It's a pity, the Artificial Honkai Eruption hasn't been tested yet, so we can't use it on Durandal like this.'

Most Fusion Warrior lose their minds when they Artificial Honkai Eruption.

Anqi couldn't guarantee that she would be able to control that state on her first use.

If we're not careful, we might end up having to hold a funeral for Durandal.

However, the simple Chimera Fusion Warrior were no longer able to completely suppress Durandal at this moment.

'I hate long battles, and besides, I feel like I'm pretty much used to them.'

As soon as Anqi made up her mind, a sapphire appeared in her palm, radiating terrifying Honkai Energy and a chilling aura.

Durandal had just regained her footing, felt a sudden tightness in her chest.

"What is that?"

"It's probably the core of the Herrscher of Ice. Oh no, she has the power to plunder, we can't let her absorb this power!"

Yae Sakura hurriedly reminded Durandal from within her lance, while simultaneously unleashing a fierce burst of black flames that frantically absorbed Durandal's Honkai Energy like a black hole.

Durandal did not resist this absorption; she simply exerted all her strength to unleash her full potential.

"More... stronger... I want even more power!"

Durandal raised her lance high, and the power erupting from her body was like a golden sun rising from black flames.

Anqi simply smiled faintly at this, her eyes filled with admiration for that dazzling soul.

Then, she grasped the core of the Herrscher of Ice, instantly freezing the sky full of black flames.

"Wow! That's incredible, you can't even see the sun anymore. Is this the power you recently created, Otto?"

"It's Sakura's power, not something I created. It's mainly because she's so outstanding."

Otto gave Tesla, who was clearly displeased, a slightly smug smile.

Yeah, isn't that amazing?

This is the successor I chose; she's no worse than your Ninti.

Unfortunately, it's still not enough to face the strength that Anqi has suddenly displayed.

Otto didn't blame Yae Sakura or Durandal; he knew they were excellent and had tried their best. It was just that times were changing too fast, and Anqi seemed to be even more outstanding than them.

"Rita, another cup of tea."

"...Oh, yes, Lord Otto."

Among this group of guests, some of whom held significant positions and others exuded an aura of terror, Rita couldn't help but feel a little nervous. At the same time, she was extremely worried about the battle situation in the sky.

Fortunately, the archbishop seemed to have everything under control, which meant that at least Celestia wouldn't collapse today, and the Valkyrie wouldn't be wiped out.

Therefore, Rita was able to perfectly fulfill her duties as a maid, providing services to guests and the archbishop.

Kiana ate a small cake and smiled at Rita:

"Sister Rita, don't be nervous. They're all people brought by Anqi, they're all on our side."

"You're right, Lady Kiana."

Rita smiled genuinely.

Rita had her own judgment, regardless of whether someone was one of her own or not.

Rita appreciated Kiana's kindness and sincerity.

Suddenly, everyone heard a rapidly approaching sonic boom and looked up at the sky.
