I'm a little bit cute after transforming.

The general brandished his longsword and thrust it towards Diana's left shoulder.

To everyone else, Diana inexplicably swung her sword downwards.

Instead of the sound of the longsword piercing the body, a crisp metallic clang rang out.

The violent impact caused the general's hands, which were gripping the sword, to tremble.

The general's pupils contracted. He wasn't surprised by Diana's power, but rather by the fact that she had seen through his feint.

'How is that possible? He's clearly full of openings!'

The general gripped his longsword, and sword shadows appeared, thrusting and slashing at Diana.

Diana did not dodge. After activating her prediction skill, phantom images of generals attacked her from all corners.

Diana wielded her sword in one hand, constantly parrying the attacks, the sharp, crisp sounds of their impact echoing throughout the room.

Sweat beaded on the general's forehead; his mind was in turmoil.

To his astonishment, he discovered that no matter how he attacked, Diana seemed to anticipate his movements, anticipating his attacks and anticipating them in the same position. Every one of his sword strikes hit its mark, and Diana was able to block them with her sword!

A strange impact sound rang out, and the general leaped backward, escaping the combat range.

All around was quiet.

The sound of liquid hitting the ground rang out.

Everyone then came to their senses from the fierce battle just now. In just a few breaths, the two had exchanged dozens of blows!

The general's hands, gripping the sword, trembled slightly as he looked down.

A crack appeared in the middle of the silver-white longsword, and the tiger's mouths of his hands also burst open, with blood flowing continuously!

Looking at Diana, who was holding a sword in one hand, I noticed that she hadn't moved an inch.

Diana also noticed that the general's sword seemed to be about to break. She fiddled with the intact sword in her hand, then threw it toward the general's position, where it stuck in the ground in front of him.

Diana found it quite fun, feeling like she was becoming a swordsman.

"Use this sword, continue!"

The general's face turned red with embarrassment, feeling that he had been insulted.

"Why only defend and not attack? Do you think it's funny?"

Diana took out another sword and, seeing the general's angry expression, felt somewhat wronged.

It's not that she doesn't want to make a move, it's that she simply doesn't know how!

If you attack rashly and she blocks it, then you might not be able to react in time to counterattack.

"I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"

The general dropped his longsword, pulled out the precious sword stuck in the ground, and casually swung it a few times. It was indeed a fine sword!

"You will pay the price for your arrogance!"

The general held his sword in one hand, closed his eyes, and two phantom images appeared around him. Finally, they solidified, and three identical generals appeared before everyone's eyes.

"It's happening! The captain's illusion skill!"

"It seems the outcome is already decided!"

Diana squinted. 'An illusion? No! Illusions shouldn't work on me; it looks like a real object!'

Three identical generals surrounded Diana in a pincer formation, and the three figures spoke at the same time.

"If you surrender now, you can avoid physical suffering!"

Diana was speechless. A group fight like this—no sportsmanship at all!

"What happened to the one-on-one duel? Okay, okay, is this how you play it?"

The general was somewhat embarrassed by what he was being said.

"This is a skill, it still counts as a one-on-one fight!"

As soon as she finished speaking, three figures attacked different parts of Diana's body.

Diana focused intently on the three illusory figures simultaneously thrusting at her, and swung her sword twice with all her might.

Two crisp clangs rang out as Diana deflected the two swords beside her.

A sword was about to pierce his body from behind.

Diana shouted, and a series of cracking sounds rang out as bones rubbed together violently.

Diana abruptly changed her sword technique, slashing backward in an almost impossible pose.

With a clang, she blocked the final sword strike.

'Ding~ Proficiency achieved, skill gained (Combo Slash LV1)!'

Diana snorted coldly.

"I see. I thought your clone was something special, controlling three bodies. Your speed and strength have decreased, huh?"

The general narrowed his eyes, revealing disdain.

"So what if that's the case? You were already in a sorry state after just one round of attacks. Let's see how long you can hold out!"

The three figures launched another attack.

This time, Diana looked relaxed and even played with the sword in her hand.

The general's anger intensified, and he increased the force of his blows.

Diana remained unconcerned, and when the three swords were about to strike her, she unleashed a combo attack.

Clang! With a crisp sound, Diana instantly unleashed three sword strikes!

The three figures took a step back, all showing expressions of disbelief.

'How is this possible? I was struggling just now! This is outrageous! They're clearly toying with me!'

"What just happened? She blocked the captain's three attacks with a single strike!"

"No! She's too fast; the naked eye can't even catch her movements. In fact, she's already unleashed three sword strikes!"

"When did the demon race have such a strong swordsman!"

The soldiers were buzzing with discussion.

The general roared, nearly losing his mind, controlling his three bodies to attack wildly, sword shadows clashing.

Diana unleashed a series of defensive strikes, and the general couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes.

Diana's combo skill also leveled up. She checked it out and found that she could now unleash four attacks in an instant if she used the combo skill!

Once again, Diana thwarted the general's attack, and this time she unleashed her fourth sword strike.

The fourth sword strike only pierced the general's breastplate, revealing the skin underneath, but he was not injured.

Diana brandished her sword a few times and said calmly.

"So? Should we continue?"

A moment of silence followed, then the soldiers swarmed forward, intending to capture Diana together.

The general raised his hand, stopping the soldiers from their actions.

"If you all attack together, you'll only be throwing your lives away!"

The general looked at Diana, who had now come to her senses and realized that she was no match for him.

"who are you?"

Diana shrugged.

"Didn't I already say? I'm a student at Austin Academy, and Adolf is my mentor!"

"How is that possible! How old are you? You can already cast flight magic and have such powerful swordsmanship!"

Diana looked at the general as if he were an idiot.

"Why don't you send someone to find Adolf and ask him? Wouldn't that clarify things?"

······

"Okay...that seems to make sense..."

Diana yawned.

"I'm a little sleepy, please send someone to verify this quickly."

"Give me a room, I want to sleep~"

After thinking it over, the general realized that they couldn't stop Diana anyway, so they had no choice but to agree.

Everyone left the room.

Diana tried it and seemed to be able to use magic; a green magic circle appeared in her hand.

Upon seeing this scene, the relaxed crowd instantly tensed up.

The general raised his sword.

"What do you want to do!"

Diana rolled her eyes at him.

"I'll treat you! Don't you want your hand anymore?"

The general was stunned, only then realizing that his hand holding the sword was a bloody mess, and a piercing pain shot through him.

He was in a state of high excitement until he belatedly realized what was happening.

Diana didn't even bother to explain. She walked up to him and extended her hand.

A green light enveloped the general's wounded area, and moments later, the ruptured wound completely healed.

The general felt somewhat ashamed and ordered his soldiers to take her to rest.

Diana followed a soldier away.

"Commander, should we wait until she falls asleep..."

A soldier approached the general and whispered something, making a throat-slitting gesture.

The general kicked him.

"Are you an idiot! Go to Oliver City right now and explain the situation to Lord Adolf!"

The man rolled on the ground, quickly scrambled to his feet, and respectfully accepted the order, inwardly cursing.

'You got bullied and are taking it out on me. Go ahead and fight back if you dare!'
