Chapter 98: Pale Blade

Ysabelon, with her torn clothes and worn-out weapon, approached the guards with a steely determination in her eyes. A guard, taken aback by her audacity, stepped forward and pointed his sword at her, demanding an explanation.

"Hey! What are you doing here?" he barked, his voice laced with authority.

Before Ysabelon could even respond, a surge of power coursed through her, propelling her into action. In a swift and precise motion, she launched an attack that incapacitated every guard standing before her. Without a moment's hesitation, she continued her relentless march towards the gate, her gaze fixed on her target.

Witnessing the swift defeat of their comrades, the remaining guards grew enraged. They shouted, "Kill her!" and charged towards Ysabelon, their weapons raised.
