A rare look of gravity appeared on Julie's face.
When the Count of South Los's guards nearby saw that look, they barely dared to breathe and began patrolling and standing watch with even greater focus.
They all knew how powerful this Chief Swordswoman was. It wasn't just the strength granted by her giant bloodline; her swordsmanship was also exceptional. With her Giant Mystic Art, transcendent defense, and long lifespan, they knew their Chief Swordswoman would only grow stronger with time.
