"WHY?!!" the clasps accompanied by the cries of Zeeta attack Aria.
"Whatever happens, you can't get out of this dimension! Follow me, Zee!" Aria snapped back at Zeeta.
"I told you why?!" Zeeta clutches Aria's shoulder. "I can't let them fight such a figure! I have to be with them! Definitely..Catastrophe Seal can do something to her!"
"Don't take that enemy for granted, Zee! He's finished off the Elves we've always hated, but what can you do when you tremble like this!" Aria clasped Zeeta's hand. He felt how his hands trembled violently.
Zeeta clutches his hand and then bluffs his teeth. "I admit I'm scared, but I can't let anyone else from this kingdom die—"
"Don't be naive, Zeeta." Eclipse crammed into their conversation. "Great Moon looks very unwilling for you to approach her. Don't you understand?"
Zeeta's blue eyes began to glow. "But ... but .. I don't want to lose anyone again...."
"Like this, the magical world we live in, son. We don't know what threat the enemy has with their great magic." Eclipse clutched his hand.
[In the meantime.].
Luna who was already in her fox mode stopped at Alicia's right shoulder. They along with the other main nobles are on standby to attack Lucy.
"Do you want to avenge us, Princess of the Eleventh Aurora...?" ask Alicia. He looks worried.
"Revenge...? What do you mean, Queen...?" ask Willmurd.
The other major nobles were also curious about the queen's answer. Lucy also grinned. "How about I say.. My goal is your son, the Queen?"
"I won't let it!" Alicia.
"Oh? It's beautiful, yes, something called love!"
'SHWOOP'
Lucy suddenly appeared before Alicia, then whispered, "I'll definitely get it!" then he turned his right hand into his monster hand, and instantly slammed Alicia down onto the ground.
"QUEEN!" screeched the nobles.
Hellenia immediately acted, while Willmurd caught up with Alicia. Hellenia uses her Magic Book to trap Lucy in a rectangular shape, then fills her with water. Porte who was there did not remain silent. He made a pale red magic circle and stabbed Lucy with crystal magic that emerged from her like hundreds of blades becoming one.
"Would you?!" muttered both.
The blood seemed to change the color of the water, but....
'SNAKE!'
The green Hellenia trap cracked, spitting out blood-colored water, and then showing Lucy who was not injured at all.
"What?! How can?!" Porte couldn't believe what she saw. His eyes saw for themselves, that Lucy's stomach was pierced and produced a hole. But now, it looks like it never happened.
"Continue attacking me with all your abilities. Even if you fight to the limit of your deaths, I won't be defeated!" Lucy enjoyed this fight.
Suddenly, Ashley comes right in front of Lucy. "You seem to be enjoying this a lot, huh, Princess...?"
'BOOM!'
Ashley uppers Lucy from her chin, twists her body ninety degrees, then kicks Lucy on her left cheek. He bounced to the ground, but Ashley didn't let him just get hurt like that.
"Eh?! Madame Ashley?! How can...?!" Hellenia was made to not understand the current situation. Just like the other major nobles.
"Is there nothing I can do to help them? In a place like this, there's not much I can do." Rey's inner self, looking around.
"Rey Emeria!" squeak Ashley from below. Rey looked at the source of the sound. "There's one thing only your magic can do! When I give you a sign, do it!"
Rey looked around then immediately understood what he meant. "Okay, Grand Duchess!"
"Now...." Ashley grabbed Lucy's hair, whose face was filled with blisters. "This is a reply because it imitates my form!" He took off his trap, then gripped Lucy's face and slammed it into the ground to cause a hole. Blood immediately flooded the hole. "I won't hold back my strength!" Ashley fumbled to punch Lucy with her right hand, then from that hand came a fist up to the giant-sized arm that enveloped her.
'BWAMMH!'
The island is hollow and thickens Lucy to the royal land. The giant fist was not long gone. Ashley was still not satisfied with her retaliation. He rode upright, took a breath and held it, gathering his orange mana. From the dark clouds that come along with Lucy, Ashley makes use of them.
"HRAAAAAHHH!!" scream Ashley. The dark clouds twisted to form a tornado wind right in the middle of his body, punctuated by the rumbling and huge groans of thunder.
"What is the Grand Duchess going to do...?" hellenia Mum.
"I've never seen Mom seriously." added Albert.
"Eh?! He seriously?!" Porte, Rey, and Hellenia were unexpected.
"Yes. Those three people might be able to do something for our opponent on this one. I beg you for help with that plan!"
Porte, Albert, and Hellenia nodded.
Shortly before the tornado "swallowed" her, Ashley raised her right hand.
'DARRT!'
Then slowly, the tornado's wind focused to a point, as well as showing the form of someone who should have turned into ash because of the lightning strike earlier.
Ashley is now in a lightning rage whose current continues to strike. Royal clothes with military models such as suits and trousers before, changed completely. As if, it had "evolved".
The armour was entirely bluish-white lightning and completely covered Ashley's body, except for the joints to bend the body such as the elbows, knees, and groin. The lightning arm was adorned with a robe of two bluish-black strands. He was armed with a white lightning spear of the same pattern as his armor on the left hand, and the same energetic glove on the right hand. His eyes were also shining, he was like wearing a crown of lightning.
His current appearance, made people would call him the "Goddess of Thunder".
Now, Ashley focused her gaze on Lucy who was already before her.
"Haha!" Lucy laughed off. "Who would have thought that the blood of that bastard woman could be passed down to this extent?!
"The royal general must be this strong, right, Alexandrita?!"
As Lucy spoke, her wounds recovered. That's when Ashley saw it. His reddish-black right hand was the source of his strength and regeneration. There was only one thing he could do to ascertain the extent of the power of the right hand.
'SLASH!'
Ashley cut off the right hand with her lengthened spear.
All the eyes that watched him could not believe it. No one could see when Ashley moved her hand, or when the spear hit Lucy. Even Lucy herself, stammered at the sight of her broken right hand and shedding the blood.
"Get out of this kingdom, Princess," Ashley said.
......................
Zeeta is now aloof and trying to talk to her ancestors. Velvet's sudden angry movements a few days ago when she and her family discussed Lucy, will make anyone curious and even guess Velvet's relationship with Lucy. But all he got was a silent mouth. At the same time he felt a very strong mana flow all the way to this other dimension.
"Where is this... Ashley's teacher...?" muttered Zeeta, "to this extent dangerous, my one ancestor...?"
Shortly after, Aria came to him. "Zee, I'll tell you why I won't let you see him." When Zeeta looks up, she also sees Azure with him.
"Listen carefully," Aria continued after sitting down, followed by Azure.
"Your ancestors are out there—no, Lucy, is our mother, Elf."
"E-uh?!"
The newly seated Azure glared, while Zeeta reflexively furrowed her brows.
"It happened before I was born and this story is always told by our elder, Hugo. He routinely told us this story so that we would keep an eye on Aurora, as well as be careful in our actions. Because if it doesn't....
"We will be killed by whoever comes to see us."
"Tell me first, about the mother of your race. I just don't understand, let alone Zeeta," Azure said.
"Uhm. Iwill.
"Two hundred—"
"ZRRAAAT!"
The entire population in that dimension looked at the source of the sound, and found its dimension torn with traces of sabetage. From the dimensional hole it shows how the condition of the kingdom of Aurora—a barren desert....
"Oh, Azure.... I've come to pick you~!" lucy's voice sounded from behind the dimension. Instantly, Azure felt very, very scared and trembled violently. He was hiding behind Aria.
Lucy, who was looking closely at the Aurora residents, let go of people who were very frightened and desperate. He could also see the figure of a Dragon and a Dwarf, but he ignored it. His eyes finally focused on Azure, who was hiding behind Aria who was trying to be brave.
"Hai~" Lucy greeted as she waved her monster's right hand at Aria, and suddenly appeared before her then whispered.
"If you kindly hand it over to me, I will let everyone here live...."
'ZRRAATT!!'
"Where might I let it!!" Zeeta slashes Lucy's right hand with her Catastrophe Seal scythe. He was really angry.
