An Exciting Encounter

Bloop!

Passing through the Barrier protecting Lysimork is easier than I expected. I thought we were required to throw some Spells to weaken it before passing through it, but we could just casually pass through it.

I am sure it must have been thanks to Haletha though. She is one of the rulers of Lysimork—in fact, the ruler who holds the highest authority over it—so she must know how to "tame" the Barrier.

Upon entering Lysimork, the Guardians who stay inside immediately show themselves. They have been hiding in the trees in our surroundings, shooting us down with their arrows as they come out.

I immediately activate [Senbonzakura] and spread five thousands of the petals it made through the air by swinging Rexorem graciously. Some of the Guardians look afraid, but the others are questioning themselves what I am doing.

Their answer comes soon enough.

"Guhak! W-What is this?!"

"I-Impossible!"

"No, my body!"
