The Power to Freeze Time and Space

Hertia's purpose was self-evident: she wanted Shien to use the Holy Sword to free all of her frozen clanswomen.

She had said so herself before. This matter might have been troublesome for others, but for Shien, it was merely a flick of the wrist.

That was why, upon learning that the Hero had reappeared, Hertia had personally made the trip to the Human Realm.

"Originally, I intended to ask Princess Roxielusty, the Kingdom's Treasure of the Kingdom of Mithra, to help. But that princess has yet to fully mature. Her talent and potential are terrifying, yet her current strength may not be enough to handle this. On top of that, her status is special. With Goddess of Fate Lidas and the many Goddesses of the God Race protecting her, even I do not dare act rashly."

Hertia explained it to Shien.

"Over the years, I have also been searching for people with abilities related to space and time. But setting aside whether such people even exist, even if they do, they may not possess enough power to undo the frozen state of the Ice Maiden Tribe."

Adult members of the Ice Maiden Tribe were Demon Realm experts at level eighty. Some had even reached Legendary-tier. When such beings erupted with power beyond their own control in a life-or-death crisis and used Ice Net Flow, one could imagine just how terrifying that power would be.

At the very least, Hertia, a Limit-tier expert, could do nothing about the ice imprisoning her clanswomen.

The Ice Net Flow unleashed when a Legendary-tier Ice Maiden lost control was already enough to threaten a Limit-tier existence like Hertia.

Even those Ice Maidens who had not yet reached Legendary-tier could not threaten Hertia with their Ice Net Flow, but Hertia still could not confidently undo their
