Leona appeared quite smug after stopping that attack. However, when she met the unhappy eyes of the rest of the group, she was dumbstruck.
"Stupid Leona, how are we going to fight back with your Ice Dome trapping us?" Leo chided with a depressed look.
"I'll take the north!" Hilda was as familiar with Leona as Leo, but she was also not happy about Leona deciding for everyone. So without hesitation, she moved and blasted the Ice Dome with a mere sword swing before she vanished in the north direction.
"West!" Rita grunted as she also ran off to the west side.
"I-I guess I'll be taking east then." Carla smiled stiffly as she wasn't as direct as the other two. She had joined at the same time as the two sisters but preferred to work alone rather than with a teammate she didn't trust.
Leona was dumbfounded from start to end as she felt very hurt by everyone's reaction to her simple mistake.
"Heh, I'm going to the south, big dummy!" Leo couldn't help but laugh amusingly before she headed in the south direction of their assailants.
Leona finally snapped out of her daze with a clouded expression as she hissed after Leo, "Who are you calling a dummy, Dummy?! And what about me?"
Perplexed, she ran off after Leo with a belly full of resentment and vowed to complain about this unfair group bullying to Cyrus.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm Cyrus, standing on top of a tree while watching the drama with his eye spell, chuckled, 'At least now she knows the spells won't differentiate between friends and foes, and sometimes a wrong move can be a fatal mistake!'
Cyrus had naturally sensed being surrounded for a while. Still, he didn't say anything because he was waiting for more enemies to come and also acting as bait to draw out more hidden players in this mysterious forest!
In the end, what appeared were Green Goblins, similar to the ones in the dimension, which he had suspected from the beginning.
However, their numbers were quite large, around 200, and they gathered quickly, indicating the presence of a large size tribe of Green Goblins somewhere nearby.
But they were all small fries, and Cyrus was more interested in catching some big fish. He was pretty sure the goblins weren't the only predators in this forest, and he might find something very interesting the deeper he went.
Right now, those goblins would be perfect targets for the girls to get familiar with the environment, as well as familiarize themselves with their own skills and knowledge.
Soon, the cries of goblins filled the forest as they never expected their prey to be deadly witches who killed them without mercy, unable to put up a fight against them.
The fastest one to kill every goblin in her vicinity was naturally Hilda. She also destroyed her surroundings while she was at it, and her eyes were still quite dissatisfied as she clearly didn't have enough fun with just these small fries.
When they were all done, they returned to the same point where Leona almost trapped them.
"Hmph, not even a good exercise. They were too weak!" Leona snorted in disdain.
"Where's Cyrus?" Carla questioned, as Cyrus was still nowhere to be seen, and everyone wondered the same thing.
At this moment, Cyrus's voice rang in their heads, alarming them.
"Alright, ladies, it seems you are all very good at protecting yourselves, so I'll leave you to your adventure while I'll be scouting ahead of you guys. In the meantime, I want you all to stick together and watch each other's backs.
"I'm also going to impart a Golden Grade Sword Spell or Sword Technique for you to practice and master. In return, I'm taking away all of your remaining promises because it's worth that much.
"As you all might already know, the only thing that matters is proficiency when it comes to weapon-related spells.
"This is a Sword Technique made with the most basic moves of the Sword, called the Primal Sword Dance, which has nine moves. Once you've mastered it to Perfection Proficiency, you'll have an unshakable foundation in the Sword Path!
"You will all receive nine images, and you have to comprehend this technique from them. I can't teach you; no one can since it all comes down to your own comprehension, like cultivation. Good luck, and don't die on me!"
Under the dumbfounded eyes of everyone they all suddenly received nine images of a blurry being holding a sword at nine different angles. Despite the static state of the images, they all felt as if they were moving!
When they saw all those nine moves, they felt their breath taken away by their simplicity yet complexity at the same time, and the more they looked at them, the more they found them compelling.
Hilda was the most shocked because she already had one weapon technique, and she had even seen her Grandfather's Sword Technique, which made him famous throughout the world. She, along with her father and uncle, longed for it. But that old man was simply too stingy and selfish, and she had never disclosed it to anyone.
But after seeing the Primal Sword Dance, she felt her Grandfather's technique was nothing but child's play in front of it, and her heart raced!
"Did you all just receive this Primal Sword Dance?" Carla couldn't help but ask, her face red with excitement and disbelief. She never expected to receive such a powerful technique out of nowhere.
"You as well?" Leo was shocked, as were Leona and Rita.
"So, apparently, we all received the same Sword Technique. Doesn't this mean we can learn from each other? Is this Cyrus's intention?" Leo said with shining eyes, unable to contain her excitement and eager to try this technique.
Cyrus watched those girls talking among themselves with excitement and couldn't help but smile mysteriously. 'If I told them this was a Divine Grade Sword Technique created by the Assassain God on a caprice. Would they still dare to think they can master it in their lifetime?'
