Bab 268: Penelope's Sacrifice

As Erina and Claude made their way out of the maze with the unconscious Ziona, they suddenly realized that Penelope wasn't by their side.

"P-Penelope?" Erina called out, turning back to see Penelope standing still with a warm smile on her face.

!?

"Come on, we have to leave now," Erina said urgently.

Penelope's smile only grew wider. "Hey Erina, have you ever believed in love at first sight?" she asked.

Erina was confused and taken aback by the strange question. "W-What? Why are you asking that now?" she responded.

"I do believe in it!" Penelope replied, still smiling. Suddenly, her whole body was engulfed in flames.

!!

Erina and Claude watched in shock as Penelope's body transformed into a magnificent flaming phoenix. Without hesitation, she flew towards Maya, who was about to deliver a final blow to Ares.

Swooosh—
