Capítulo 853: Actually, We Never Left

-----

Filled with the excitement of being congratulated by the Saintess for having slain what he believed might be the actual reincarnation of "the one that betrayed our divine mother", the Paladin Captain laughed, raising his magic sword, and swinging it down, attempting to kill both Celes and Nia at the same time.

"DIE, YOU SINNERS!"

SLAAASH!

A powerful slashing wave of sword and mana energy emerged from his sword, rushing towards Celes as he tried to create a barrier made of water, but was quickly cut down! The barrier exploded, splattering water everywhere, seconds before the slashing attack were to reach his frail and small body.

"CELES!"

His mother screamed, harboring any strength she had left to run in front of her son while throwing him down into the ground, attempting to take the hit for him.

CRASH!
