"Now that's the spirit; make sure you make it entertaining for me." as an insane expression made its way onto her face as she dashed towards the little girl, surrounded by a bright golden barrier.
Before Clara could even react, the woman was in front of her, with only her barrier separating them.
As the woman used her dagger to pierce the barrier, it didn't budge before she could try to stab again. A sword made up of purely mana lunged at her, which she dodged by jumping back.
"Ooh, that was close," the woman said, her relaxed tone betraying her words.
Ignoring her words, a bunch of swords of mana lunged at her, which she easily dodged due to her superior speed.
The swords that she wasn't able to dodge were broken by her dagger, which, upon closer inspection, seemed to be laced with some sort of purple liquid, most likely lethal poison.
However, Ciara didn't care, as she was panicking, thinking about the ticking time of her barrier.
