"An Adjuster?"
Bazett's eyes widened, seemingly unable to comprehend it.
She knew what an Adjuster was—a relatively rare profession—but since when could an Adjuster possess this kind of combat power?
"I merely have a deeper understanding of mana manipulation and Magic Crests. Your 'strike after, arrive first' technique is indeed impressive. Even opponents stronger than you can easily be killed in reverse by it. But if one truly understands it, it isn't quite so unsolvable."
Xu Yue gave a simple explanation, and an expression of realization appeared on Bazett's face. So this guy really had influenced it. He had even seen through her technique in a single glance!
Bazett was a descendant of the Great Dog Knights, and her family's trump card was also an inherited causality-twisting attack. However, as far as Bazett was concerned, she merely knew how to use it—or rather, when it was best used.
Actually understanding such a thing was rather difficult for her.
Compared to researching an inherited Noble Phantasm like this, she was far better at fighting. If she knew how to fire a gun, did she really need to study the precise principles behind it?
"Well, what comes next may involve some secrets of your family. I think they..."
Xu Yue then glanced at the two Magi on the floor, whose ears had perked up.
Curiosity was a Magus's nature. Of course they wanted to know what had happened, but after Xu Yue gave them that look, the blazing flames of gossip in their hearts were instantly doused. They hurriedly said,
"We'll leave right away!"
"Sorry for disturbing you! We'll send compensation afterward!"
The two were quite decisive. Once they realized Xu Yue's abilities far surpassed anything they had imagined, they yielded completely, with no intention of making threats or seeking revenge.
