Moreover, their combat experience was exceptionally rich, far beyond what Magic Guidance practitioners who stayed home doing research could compare to.
As one of the best among them, Lady Joliette had originally been unable to reach greater heights due to her talent. But after undergoing the "Stardust Trial," the limits of her potential were unlocked. Her years of accumulated experience finally erupted, and everything fell naturally into place.
And similarly—
The other three maids had also gained something from investigating various "miracles." Only then had they rapidly become Magic Guidance practitioners and stood out in this World Cup qualifier.
However, compared with the traditionally trained Magic Guidance practitioners who had also advanced, their proficiency in Magic Guidance was actually relatively low.
What allowed them to stand out was their more refined combat technique. But while such a skill set could help them advance from the qualifiers, going any further would be rather difficult.
However, the maids' goal in entering the competition had never been to win the championship or become the "Duel King."
They merely wished to temper themselves through this competition and thereby earn the recognition of the "Golden Holy Armor."
That had been their pursuit all along.
To gain the recognition of the "Golden Holy Armor," receive the Dimon surname, and become true family to the Duke.
That was the ultimate goal of those who had been saved by the family. "..."
No matter what.
Having five maids enter the preliminaries still displayed the strength of the Dimon Family and avoided the embarrassment of coming away empty-handed.
Dark was very satisfied with this.
As the full list of qualifiers was announced, the projection switched over to various television programs.
The Alliance selected exciting duels from the qualifiers, edited them into highlights, and broadcast them repeatedly across different channels.
