บท 1479: "Seven Layers of Void" 

However...what Code-L had predicted didn't come true. 

Once again, when the whip met the sword, the whip seemed to slow down by a few seconds, allowing the captain to dodge the whip and use her sword to block the whip. 

Then, she tried to use the tip of the sword to stab the whip because this type of sword was better for stabbing than slaying. 

The tip of the sword met the whip, and the two weapons clashed head-on. 

In that instant, the surrounding void had signs of cracks, and the shockwave spread throughout the battle, enough to shock the Valkyries and the Island Devourer. 

The shockwave alone almost sent the Valkyries flying, and the Island Devourer, who had a harsh tongue, got his first few wounds because of the shockwave! 

The shockwave couldn't be avoided, and the ripple felt like sharp knives slashing the whole void a few inches deeper than what the elite Valkyries could do.
