Once Yushua realized she could no longer move her body, she understood how serious the situation was.
Especially after the other woman had just said, "Can I lead the Void Realm Church straight over to the Alt Conglomerate?" Yushua's mind promptly went blank.
"Miss Celine, what are you doing?"
Yushua tried to break free, but ultimately failed. Still, she did not give up, instead rapidly thinking through her current situation.
Celine's reaction and what was happening now were beyond anything she had anticipated. She did not even know how Celine had restrained her. All Yushua could do was figure out the situation as quickly as possible and minimize the uncertain factors.
Hearing Yushua's words, Celine abandoned her earlier demeanor and said with a cheerful grin:
"I haven't done anything... if anything, weren't you the one who brought me here?"
Yushua was briefly at a loss for words, but by now she had caught on. Celine's relationship with Jonas Wetting seemed far closer than she had imagined.
To unravel her ability so quickly and devise a countermeasure was well beyond Yushua's understanding...
But Yushua was clearly no ordinary person, either. After her initial panic, she had now calmed down completely.
She took a deep breath, then mobilized her psionic energy, attempting to dismantle the force binding her.
Immediately afterward, a hollow-like void appeared around Yushua, as though someone had drawn a lasso selection around her and deleted the layer. The void spread continuously like cracks in glass.
The surrounding space also began to tremble.
Yet this did not last long. The next instant, it was as though an invisible hand had enclosed the area around Yushua. The cracks stopped spreading, and the space stabilized.
Yushua frowned, raised her head, and looked ahead.
Right before the girl's eyes, a figure slowly emerged.
