Cassie had been too used to being looked down on, so nothing really bothered her. At the very least, Terran was a place where women could have their own high self-worth, so words from the ignorant didn't affect her.
However, her people—especially the aborigine men—were more offended than she was. Understandably so.
It was not only for her sake, but also theirs. After all, if she was insulted, they—who were under her—were as well.
Stab! Stab!!
It happened quickly, but it felt like a lot of things happened. The Alterrans stabbed and stabbed until they hit a weakness and destroyed the enemy's equipment.
Not to mention: Equipment… was a little more susceptible to Elementalist's attacks.
Most of the guards were already awakened elementalists by now—something the enemy should know, but hadn't encountered yet so even if they wanted to believe they were prepared—they actually weren't.
