A fatal ambush.
The throat and heart.
The Twin Thieves' attack was exceptionally fierce; when they acted, there was absolutely no forewarning, giving their opponent no chance to react.
Aili's lips were even starting to curl up, as if she could already see Asina's blood splattering on the spot, but at that moment, a cluster of rock-yellow light suddenly bloomed from Asina's body.
Hiss...
The sharp Daggers ripped through the air, and unexpectedly, there was a sound like metal scraping against metal, as blinding sparks flew from both Daggers.
Rock Armor!
Earth Defense Magic materialized from Asina's body at the last fraction of a second, blocking the two lethal Daggers.
Impressive, Asina truly deserved her reputation.
Qin Chu, also standing atop a tree in the jungle behind, did not skimp on his praise.
Asina's reaction was perfect, her timing was spot on; had it been a fraction of a second later, the Dagger would have torn through her throat.
