"Tsk."
Yae Sakura sighed in the attic.
See? Provoking Ursus was this troublesome. A full-scale war definitely wouldn't break out with Durandal keeping them in check, but this kind of fly-like small-scale harassment was simply impossible to avoid and endlessly irritating.
This wasn't a war between her and Ursus. More likely, it was a fight between her and the procurement department under some intelligence bureau.
It really wasn't the least bit interesting.
Sakura Fubuki cut through the air and plunged diagonally into the hillside. The crystal giant did not stop for it. Its entire body gleamed, and beneath the dusk, that radiance shifted through warm hues, festive and cheerful, utterly unrelated to battle.
Ummmmm.
It felt like a Titan charging at you with terrifying momentum, only for you to look closer as it approached and find that it was painted entirely pink and covered in advertising slogans. You knew it was dangerous, but you just couldn't get nervous.
Yae Sakura leaped down in a single step.
She sharply lowered her body into a difficult dance pose, evading the crystal fist swinging at her head-on. As she slid rapidly downward, she drew Sakura Fubuki from the ground and cleanly severed the giant's ankle.
Yae Sakura leaped high, as if dealing with an ordinary giant.
The crystals shattered at a touch, but that was fine. All she needed was a foothold. As she darted and dodged, Yae Sakura continuously slashed with her blade, her figure ghostlike and elusive as she cut down even more crystal fragments.
She even used Jizo Mitama. Not that she activated the Divine Key's power—it was simply that dual blades looked cooler.
The battle was completely one-sided.
In the end, Yae Sakura hovered behind its neck, crossed her twin blades, and brought them down in a heavy slash.
