Maria ignored her. It was impossible to move Salt City away from the Salt of the Earth; this was a place destined by history.
"This is troublesome. In terms of true power, I am ultimately inferior to the Demon God. A direct confrontation with such an opponent would likely be endless. Oh well, it's just a hunt after all."
Maria took off her trench coat and tossed it into Heulia's hands, then leaped into the air and charged toward the enormous figure.
Heulia caught the curve of Maria's lips just before she took flight.
