"I know. I knew at a glance."
Duke Qinghui adjusted his breathing, then looked at Ailorus and smiled.
"Yes, Xiao Ai. You did very well... exceptionally well. Far, far better than I ever imagined."
Westheid spoke from the heart. He had brought Ailorus along with no great expectations, thinking it would be enough for her to use her status and power as the Wind Law Queen to hold the defensive line and gain some experience in Tuning.
When he had first learned that a Demon Demigod was launching a sneak attack on their home base, Westheid had truly panicked. He never thought Ailorus would actually be able to pummel a Holy Spirit Incarnation. It wasn't that it was impossible—as long as one mastered Ten Thousand Wind Melodies, they would have an absolute advantage over the Holy Spirits of the Land of Thousand Lakes, even if they were below the Legend Tier.
