A squad of girls raced across the Snowfield at astonishing speed. Close behind them followed a huge horde of Honkai Beasts, making even these highly capable fighters feel hard-pressed.
If it had only been a few, that would have been fine. But with dozens, even hundreds of them, perhaps only the strongest people in all of Schicksal could handle so many at once.
"Tut!"
The golden-haired girl came to a stop and turned to face the Honkai Beasts. At the same time, she shouted to the other girls, "Go on ahead! I'll hold them off!"
That was what she said, but she certainly did not think that all she could do was hold them off.
That was a fact.
The Divine Key, Black Abyss White Flower, did not require its full power to be unleashed. The wielder only needed to keep up with the frequency at which Black Abyss White Flower operated.
"Bianca...!"
Yae watched Bianca stop and began to worry.
Bianca had never gotten along with others since joining the squad, but Yae's cooking had allowed them to start talking—after all, Bianca's own cooking was limited to being merely "edible." Though their relationship was not as close as Feng Chen's and Rita's, Bianca and Yae had still managed to build a friendship.
"Go!"
"But..." Yae still wanted to say something, but Seele stopped her.
"Don't worry, Sister Yae." Seele gazed at Bianca's back, as though she were seeing the person she had once believed in long ago. "Bianca will be fine."
It was necessary to mention how Bianca had come to this world.
Because she had arrived in this world before the Honkai War, Bianca's entire family had escaped that disaster. However, in order to find Feng Chen, Bianca had found a way to reach Schicksal on her own.
