"Since things have come to this point, it seems we have no choice but to go."

Ming Ge sighed, drew her sword, and said, "Don't say I'm bullying you."

"Bullying? Heh."

Erica sneered.

The sword in her hand was named Lionheart, a weapon passed down through generations, and even within the entire magic society, only she, the child prodigy, was qualified to wield it.

Erica is skilled in Ironcraft, a form of magic that allows her to manipulate steel objects freely, enabling her to unleash the full power of this weapon.

She is also skilled in magic of creation, transformation, destruction, and enhancement, and possesses the Words of Holy Severance.

If he weren't so young, earning the title of Paladin wouldn't be impossible, and even now he's about to inherit the title of 'Crimson Demon,' one of Milan's youngest Grand Knights.

The man in front of them carried a sword that looked like a toy, and putting aside the difference in their strength, how could something so flashy but useless possibly be effective?

Erica decided to use her Ironcraft to cut the man's toy in half, and then have some fun with it.

Like a lion toying with its prey, let this poor man know just who he's messed with!

"Is this going to be a duel?"

Kusanagi Shizuka asked with a strange expression, "Is this a specialty of Italy?"

"It truly is a unique feature."

Ming Ge nodded and said, "Traditional kung fu should be practiced to the point of restraint. I advise the young lady to be mindful of her actions and not to lack martial ethics."

"What weird talk... Oh well, let's just take this."

Erica gave a cruel smile, then brought her sword down.

With those sweeping, powerful movements, Ming Ge felt as if she were wielding a heavy sword while she herself was holding a light one.

With a click, Ming Ge's figure blurred, and he stood beside her.

By the time Erica realized what was happening, the sword in her hand had already broken, and a strand of hair drifted through her sight and disappeared.

It seems to be saying: If you did it intentionally, you'll lose your head.

What... just happened?

Erica stood there, stunned, her mind a complete mess.

Only then did she realize the lingering fear, and cold sweat instantly covered her entire body.

It was terrible, absolutely terrible. It felt like she'd practically wandered around the Styx, leaving her completely stiff.

"Youthful vigor is truly admirable."

Ming Ge sighed, then patted Erica on the shoulder.

"While having confidence is a good thing, it's not good if you don't appreciate it."

Erica came to this city with the mindset of 'slaying a god'... In the end, unlike her companions, she had never witnessed the power of the Demon King and therefore underestimated the strength of the disobedient god.

To be honest, even disregarding the influence of the Sacred Word Spirit, Erica might not even be able to defeat Ais at level 6.

What just happened?

Kusanagi Shizuka asked curiously, "I didn't even blink or see how you changed positions, and then... Miss Erica's sword broke."

"I was just very fast. I walked over and snapped her sword in two with a snap, and that was it."

Ming Ge shrugged.

"That sounds really impressive."

Kusanagi Shizuka seemed lost in thought.

"It's not that I'm very good, it's that this kid is too bad."

Ming Ge sighed, "I don't know where she got her confidence from, brazenly coming over to challenge me... It feels like she's bullying a child."

"I understand, you feel really guilty, right?"

Kusanagi Shizuka sighed.

"No, it's actually pretty fun."

Ming Ge scratched his head and said, "Back in my hometown, almost no one challenges me. Except for practicing swordsmanship with the kids in my family, I almost never use a weapon. It's so boring."

"Now, even bullying little kids is fun when I find something amusing."

"What a disgusting way to put it." Kusanagi Shizuka's lips twitched, speechless.

After a moment of calm, Erica looked at Ming Ge with a complicated expression, while Kusanagi Shizuka asked, "So... the witch is really there?"

"Of course it's true."

Ming Ge nodded and said, "I never said it was fake."

"But you didn't say it was true... Knowing I'm not from your world, you deliberately made fun of me, didn't you?"

Kusanagi Shizuka, hands on her hips.

"Your surprised look is adorable."

Ming Ge smiled.

"Bad taste."

Kusanagi Shizuka and rubbed her forehead in exasperation.

"I was instantly killed without even being able to react..."

Erica snapped out of her daze and looked at Ming Ge with a puzzled expression, asking, "Who... exactly are you?"

"My name is Ming Ge. You probably haven't heard of my given name before."

Ming Ge smiled and said, "I am China, Luo Hao calls me elder brother... If that's the case, you should be able to understand a little bit about me now, right?"

"That sorcerer?!"

Erica gasped in surprise.

"A sorcerer? Very well, I'll remember that."
