Chapter 10

Y/N: Clara!

He yelled to the one that destroyed a whole bookshelf after being thrown at it. On her feet a long time ago, she charged ahead and pulled out a grey dagger from inside her outfit, that was a black dress on top of a white blouse and black stockings.

Clara: Time for some string practice.

Rushing forward with a wide smile of excitement, she literally went through Reimu's body with the dagger like she was a ghost and stopped on the other side. Her dagger was gone but instead, strings were knotted at her fingers and connected to the girl that just got transpierced.

Clara: Puppet field, all shall become mine and mine alone~

She laughed and closed her right hand into a fist before doing an uppercut in the air. The movement opened many wounds on the girl affected by the strings. Still enduring the many attacks she received, she frowned and took out another seal.

Y/N: Crap, retreat everyone!

Clara: Huh?

She turned around and the familiar orbs of light appeared. However, this time, the one summoning them was glaring daggers at them, not holding back anymore.

Reimu: Fantasy Seal!

Y/N: !

Alice: Powerful attack detected, commencing protection.

Not afraid of the incoming projectiles, she faced the danger straight ahead. Meanwhile, the puppeteer broke the strings and prepared her sword to defend herself. Knowing that she already took a strong hit, she needed to avoid those that would aim at her.

Y/N's mind: Crap, Director, let me do something!

He asked to the one that was not here, begging to be able to perform what that person would be able to do. His eyes widened, he didn't want to see his friends die yet another time, he wouldn't be able to take it. He begged harder and prayed that he could use his hidden trick, borrowed from the Director.

Alice: Transpierce ready and set, retreat is a must Clara, Y/N.

8 orbs, 8 powerful attacks that were enough to immediately stun him when he was attacked by the same spell. Now, it was Alice's turn to feel the wrath of the shrine maiden in red, her laziness gone unlike last time. Her face frozen in a monotone state, her spear was held with a single hand and a precise eye keeping track of which ball of pure magic would attack her first.

Reimu: Release!

Finally, they were released and flew to the closest opponent, the girl with gray hair. Still not receiving his answer that he needed, he was forced to witness his friend get demolished into nothingness by the spell.

Alice: Transpierce!

For the first time, the girl raised her voice and swung the blade of the weapon to collide with the first orb. Sparkles illuminated their vision but it faded away, losing its power quickly. Still not done, she moved to the second one and repeated the cycle until the 8th one was dispersed by her attack that was beyond a simple trump card.

Y/N: She's free to go, Clara, we have to stun her now!

He finally realized but now that she was fighting seriously, she would obviously use attacks stronger than before. Alice gave them a chance but they needed to act quick. However that was where that turn ended, everyone needing a moment to recover a small amount of energy.

4th turn, 2 turns before the Mass Attack of the witch.

Alice: ...Energy lacking, be careful.

Loudly breathing to catch her breath, she used her spear as a support and leaned against it, trying to recover more energy before attacking the guest. After what she did, she was allowed that much at least.
