"Fujino, what are you going to do next?" Alice asked, looking at Ink Flower nearby with a smile.
"You'll find out in a bit. Someone is coming—Xuanyue's Fallen Angels." Asagami Fujino looked into the distance. Through layers of buildings, she could see three figures rushing toward their location.
"They probably discovered the situation here," Alice laughed. When Ink Flower was teaching those rookie Fallen Angels a lesson earlier, she hadn't hidden her location at all, so it was normal to be discovered.
"Shall we keep watching?" Alice asked.
"Of course." Asagami Fujino smiled, and two buckets of popcorn and sodas appropriately appeared in her hands as she prepared to watch the show.
"I'm so mad." After venting for a while, Ink Flower's mood had improved slightly, but she was still troubled by how to find the VV Academy that was up in the sky. One had to know that before she came out this time, Muir V had given a strict order: do not return until the mission is complete.
Thinking of this, the frustration she had just vented began to well up again.
"Damned guy!" Ink Flower kicked the ground hard as if she were kicking someone, though it was unclear if she was imagining Muir V or someone else.
"Hmm?"
Her Sixth Sense provided perception far beyond that of an ordinary person, and Ink Flower now detected the sound of footsteps approaching from afar.
Ink Flower immediately quieted down, listening carefully. Under the influence of the Sixth Sense, everything happening in the distance was brought to her ears.
"Three people, breathing different from ordinary humans... they're Fallen Angels!" Ink Flower quickly identified them.
"She's got some skill."
"It's right here!"
With a coarse voice, three men wearing black-robed, red-lined Fallen Angel uniforms jumped down together from a dilapidated building.
"I thought it was a little mouse, but I didn't expect it to be a member of the famous Dark Moon Iron Cavalry!" The leader was a coarse, large-framed man. At this moment, his eyes were excited yet carried a hint of cruelty as he stared fixedly at Ink Flower, like a predator stalking its prey.
The Fallen Angels on either side of the leader appeared more ordinary, but they too looked at Ink Flower with excitement.
A member of the Dark Moon Iron Cavalry! If they captured her and presented her to Lord Lucifer, they would receive a massive reward and might even be promoted to become true members of the Fallen Angels.
Although they were called Fallen Angels on the surface, they only held the title. Only Fallen Angels like Sosuke were Fallen Angels in the true sense, enjoying immense power within Paradise Lost. This was what they pursued.
In this world that had already fallen into chaos, only power and authority were the things people sought.
"You think you can catch me with just three Fallen Angels? Don't make me laugh!" Although Ink Flower looked calm and composed on the surface, she was inwardly lamenting. Why hadn't she been more careful when she struck just now? She hadn't expected people to be nearby. How could her luck be so bad today? Her horoscope clearly said her luck would be great these few days!
"Then let's test that!" the leading Fallen Angel shouted, bursting forth with speed that didn't match his physique. In a short time, he rushed in front of Ink Flower, throwing a powerful punch that whistled through the air toward her.
Although this Fallen Angel was fast, Ink Flower's reactions weren't slow either. A red magic circle appeared in front of her, and a transparent, blood-red ghost hand with sharp nails reached out from the circle, colliding violently with the Fallen Angel's incoming punch.
"You've got some skill!" the Fallen Angel shouted. The muscles on his arm instantly swelled, and he forced the ghost hand back with sheer strength.
Sensing the intense pressure from the punch, Ink Flower's expression shifted slightly. Another magic circle appeared beside her, and her body instantly vanished, reappearing five meters away.
"Oh? Can the famous Dark Moon Iron Cavalry only hide?!" The Fallen Angel charged again, displaying speed that defied his massive frame.
"Cerberus!" A key appeared in Ink Flower's hand, which she thrust into the air. Three magic circles appeared, and three blood-colored hellhounds leaped out, lunging toward the charging Fallen Angel.
"Is this all you've got?!" The Fallen Angel roared as his entire body expanded, tearing through his clothes to reveal terrifying muscles.
"Die!" Facing the attacking hellhounds, the Fallen Angel swung a fist packed with terrifying power, knocking the hellhounds flying and causing them to dissipate.
"An enhancement-type Seventh Sense?" Ink Flower's expression darkened. Against a Seventh Sense user like this, her own Seventh Sense felt quite powerless, and a single punch from him could leave her heavily injured!
!
Her Sixth Sense suddenly gave a strong warning—from behind! Ink Flower turned her head quickly, but it was too late. From the corner of her eye, she already saw a dark shadow.
Another magic circle opened, and the red ghost hand appeared again to meet the shadow. The shadow collided with the ghost hand; in terms of strength, the shadow was no match and was pushed back several steps. It was one of the other two Fallen Angels.
"Where are you looking!" another Fallen Angel's cruel voice rang out. Ink Flower, whose attention had been drawn by the other Fallen Angel, realized too late that there was still a Fallen Angel right in front of her who could severely injure her with one punch!
Watching the fist get closer and closer, Ink Flower could already feel the wind it generated. The strong pressure hit her face, causing a stinging pain. Damn it! I can't dodge!
At that moment, the scene before Ink Flower's eyes suddenly changed. A streak of what seemed like pure white light flashed past her eyes.
The Fallen Angel swinging his fist also changed. As the pure white light swept across his body, the cruel smile on his face seemed to freeze, looking somewhat ridiculous instead.
In the next moment, Ink Flower's pupils constricted. A brilliant red liquid erupted from the Fallen Angel's body. The warm liquid dripped onto Ink Flower's face and body, staining much of her black formal dress with vivid red.
