Chapter 689: No Escape

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Although Cynthia wasn't particularly fond of Emilia's current form, she also didn't like leaving things unfinished. "Don't let any of them get away! We ended up losing almost three percent of our energy reserves because of these idiots, you know?!"

In fact, Emilia was also a little shocked when she realized it.

It wasn't that she never expected some of her spikes to fail to penetrate through the soldiers. That would have been asking for too much, given that many of them were wearing at least some armor.

That's why she made them so long, thin, and pointy.

Of course, even if a few ended up getting stuck in a different direction than intended, it wouldn't be too much of a surprise.

What she never expected, however, was for her 'attacks' to end up completely healing her opponents at times. That is, so long as they weren't already dead and had one of her spider spikes completely stuck inside their body.
