Chapter 10

Clara: Come on Maria, we can't lose hope!

The last one emerging from the light was a woman with short violet hair wearing a red coat, a long rapier in her left hand that she was handling with only that hand. Her eyes shone their purple light to their allies and comforted them.

Jenna: We can't lose with Maria on our side!

Alice: Probability of victory effectively increased, adjusting procedures.

Marisa: Heh? Where did they all come from?

Reimu: They were waiting for us.

Y/N: Can we start now?

He stopped them and readied his blade, shining inside the darkness of the forgotten place. Jenna tightened her fists and followed suit, prepared for the incoming battle that will soon devolve into an all-out war.

Maria: Be careful Y/N, you're still weak compared to everyone, don't hesitate to rely on us.

He knew that the current version that he was seeing from his friends were from the past but he gritted his teeth.

Y/N: No, I want to show my worth, I would only be a dead weight if I can't help.

Both the shrine maiden and the witch began to fly in the air, the witch sitting on her broom and readying a small machine that looked like an octogonal box. The librarians positioned themselves and began the first round of attacks.

Y/N: One of us need to keep clashing against the witch or else she'll copy our abilities while the others focus on the shrine maiden.

Maria: Got it. I'll keep the witch at bay.

Plan made, they all charged forward and the duo opposing them retaliated with Danmaku. Normally, they would have the advantage with their ability to easily fly around but Jenna fixed that problem almost instantly.

Jenna: Space rupture!

She swung her fist to punch the first projectile aiming at her and the sound of a massive whip being swung around resonated, causing the floor to tremble for a moment. The sound, however, was nothing compared to the massive rupture appearing in the air. Charged with electricity, it was like a gap that Reimu would often see from a certain gap youkai. Quickly destroying the atmosphere, it zapped the girl and forced her to land on the ground.

Alice: Deploying attack.

The robotic girl went for a powerful stab with the spear, which was blocked by her target. Equaling in power, none of them were harmed in the clash but the second one was not expected. Alice swung the spear upward and slammed the sharp end of it under her chin, taking her distances afterwards.

Following that, Y/N charged at the surprised guest and quickly slashed her before truly attacking her. It was 2 other slashes but with an ulterior purpose. Indeed, he weakly damaged her and simply tried to create wounds on her body so that she would hurt herself the moment she tries to fight back.

Reimu: ...What a pain to deal with.

Taking out a seal, she released the magic in the shape of 8 orbs. Activating, all of them were brought to life and flew with a precise aim to the librarian who previously attacked her. Left with no energy to fight back, he was forced to block this by himself and-

Clara: Got you~!

She called the shrine maiden and swung her sword, ignoring Y/N being attacked. She wouldn't even be able to protect him so it was better to focus the one creating those attacks. Prepared this time, Reimu guarded against the incoming attack.
