Isn't it common knowledge that wizards excel in melee combat?

The last protrusion was cleanly cut synchronously. The demonic rabbit raised its front paws and threw the hammer. As the weapon descended from mid-air, its claws reached out and struck the hammer away.

Before the hammer could make contact, Holy Maiden leaned forward and stepped out, running towards it. Just as the hammer was about to touch her, she jumped up, using the hammer as a stepping board, and accelerated towards the rabbit on the other side.

Holy Maiden is not only a position, but also a profession. She is one level above the High Priest and belongs to the higher-ranking magic profession, in simple terms, a slightly more advanced magician.

And now, this girl with a magic profession, lifted her cross sword and actively approached the rabbit. She took the initiative to strike first. No wonder the guards exclaimed, "Holy shit! The magician is actually engaging in close combat..."

The battle between the girl and the rabbit was not for others to intervene in. Otherwise, the currently emotionally unstable Holy Maiden might have mistaken others as her targets.

Her anger was not mainly because she had been hit before, but rather because the demonic rabbit had targeted a particularly sensitive area with its hammer.

Do you remember where Holy Maiden was hit before?

That's right, it was her torso.

This is a very special part of the human body, including some sensitive areas, such as the chest, the chest, and the chest!

Even though she had been wrapped in a robe before, it couldn't hide the fact that Holy Maiden had a large chest. If Lucia's cup size was F, she was at least a D, which was considered quite rare...

Why did the rabbit have to hit her weak point? Even if she ate a lot of rabbit meat, it wouldn't grow back. In the worst case scenario... "What if her size became as flat as that empress? That would be so pitiful!"

"Cough, cough, Lady Holy Maiden, I hope you mind your choice of words. If... you don't want to be sued in our country's court..."

Sister Glasses pushed her glasses up as an indication of her involvement in the situation. In the blink of an eye, Holy Maiden jumped onto the demonic rabbit's front paws, sliding along its arm with her eyes fixed on it. The blade of her cross sword emitted a dazzling light as it thrust out, aiming for the rabbit's big, round head.

Whoosh!

The black sphere floating in the air began to move, transforming into tentacle-like appendages that madly wrapped around the red-roasted rabbit's head. Before the sword could properly strike, the sticky tentacles entangled it, creating a defensive web in front of the demonic rabbit. The slashing blade was blocked by this web.

The web was not particularly strong, but rather slippery. The sharper the object, the easier it was for it to slip on the web.

More tentacles blocked Holy Maiden from all directions. At some point, all four directions around her were completely surrounded. These things formed a larger sticky web, enveloping her and quickly solidified into a black sphere.

Boom, boom, boom!

Holy Maiden attempted to strike the inside of the sphere with her elbow to see how firm the material that contained her was. She found that it made a sound similar to tapping glass, but with much greater hardness.

"Squeak."

The demonic rabbit recalled its hammer and raised its paws high, fiercely striking down with the force of its anger.

Bang!

The black sphere, like a basketball being forcefully slapped down, quickly fell to the ground and bounced a few times. Each rebound was slightly weaker than the previous one. Once the sphere stopped moving, the rabbit's face relaxed, its three protruding lips indicating its smugness.

"Squeak."

It turned its head towards the others, continuously demonstrating with the hammer resting on its left paw, as if it were a mafia boss...

"Hey, if you want to flex your muscles, you need more strength than that!"

The voice that shouldn't have appeared resurfaced, causing the demonic rabbit to turn its head in fear. Its red eyes spotted the shattered black sphere on the ground.

"That level of strength isn't even enough to cause pain. If you want to make me frown, you'll need a whip with spikes to lash at me."If you want to make me scream, you have to crush more than a dozen bones in my body... If you can't do it, then let me apologize to you."

Crack, crack, it keeps cracking. It changes from huge to small, and ultimately becomes nothingness.

The Holy Maiden, who no longer exists, walks out from the black ball. Her cheeks are flushed with a dazed redness, and she keeps shaking with the cross sword in her hand.

She has a dangerous look in her eyes, as if she is going to turn her opponent into tonight's main dish. This look makes the sinister rabbit's hind legs retreat slightly, as if a lion is confronting its prey.

There is no choice but to fight with all her strength!

The sinister rabbit truly realizes the danger it is in now. It abandons the hammer and curls up on the ground, forming a ball of furry fur.

Its hind legs accelerate as it rolls, making this giant ball fiercely collide;

If the Holy Maiden was born in the Celestial Empire, she would definitely be able to link the current scene with speeding illegal vehicles.

They must be speeding, no doubt about it...

Now is not the time to worry about such things, although the Holy Maiden is not sure how Dibiles' law enforcement team will act when facing illegal vehicles;

But, from her perspective, she would undoubtedly make her position clear from the beginning:

"No need for punishment or taking away, for vehicles with serious violations, destroy them directly on the spot."

The hardened fur leaves long traces on the ground. It does not slow down or intend to turn. It simply crashes straight from the front;

In terms of size alone, the difference in physique between the attacking and defending sides is more than ten times?

If the Holy Maiden were thrown into that pile of fur, no one would be able to find her in a game of hide and seek.

Just as it appears "unequal" at first glance, the fur ball rolls over countless trees and suddenly bounces up near the target, only to fall again in mid-air;

This action causes the initial diminishing force to recover and further strengthen at this moment;

The Holy Maiden raises her sword, holding it horizontally in front of her. The sword blade is like a barrier, ready for defense.

The point of contact between the two instantly collides with a loud thunderous sound. The smaller figure's legs slide backward, retreating several meters, and the soles of their boots leave countless small marks on the ground.

Immediately, the Holy Maiden leans against the edge of a tall tree behind her. She bends her left leg and presses her boots against the tree bark, firmly standing her ground without taking another step back.

The cross sword in her right hand spins half a circle, flipping from the palm of the Holy Maiden's hand to face forward;

The "barrier" used to block the fur ball's collision now turns vertical, the sword tip suddenly stabs at the outer edge of the white fur, resulting in a faint red mark.

The opponent's fur is thick and its defensive power seems to be at the level of a "city defense";

The tentacles from before were the same. If we don't consider the troublesome means of self-preservation, this rabbit would not have lasted until now without becoming a rabbit meat hotpot.

"The fur is difficult to penetrate... But that doesn't mean it's impossible to penetrate! Little rabbit, do you prefer slow-cooking or barbecue?"

As Holy Maiden smiles, fire elements within a fifty-li radius immediately gather around her left hand, converging around the fire column she has formed;

Her left arm functions as the carrier of the flames. Ensuring that she won't burn herself, she quickly generates a huge column of fire which sweeps towards the location of the sinister rabbit.

"Personally, I prefer barbecue, little rabbit. Goodbye!"

The cross sword in her hand describes an arc in place, changing the force from "stabbing out" to "pushing out";

The airflow turns into a spiral and hammers out, compensating for Holy Maiden's lack of strength, causing the sinister rabbit's body, which had stopped advancing, to be sent flying after a breath of time;

The roaring airflow hits the fur, resulting in intermittent dull sounds before and after the impact. The follow-up attack immediately pursues;

The smiling girl swings her left arm, driving the fire column which covers the entire garden, turning it into scattered flames to burn!

If it can't penetrate, then burn it;

There is nothing strong enough to withstand a single round of cooking. If there is, then it will take two rounds.

Floating in the air, it becomes a dazzling firework. Fire and smoke each adorn the sky, and with a "sizzle" sound, the people below hear it for the last time.There is no aroma, no smell, no hint of burnt ashes in the sky or on the ground, even though the blue sky is restored above their heads.

The confident Holy Maiden, who is sure of her fire control skills, excludes the possibility that the rabbit meat has been burnt in the fire. She believes that there is a reasonable explanation:

"The fire contains light elements used for purification. I'm afraid that in the moment of burning, the curse is completely purified, causing the rabbit itself to disappear!"

It's a pity that she can't eat the rabbit meat for dinner, but fortunately the curse is lifted. This favor...

No, the feeling that Holy Maiden hates still lingers, and it still emanates from Isabella, not just one but two feelings.

(Whispering) "There is a scent that doesn't belong to the continent... Previously, when I was preparing to deal with that unclean thing, it seemed to be absorbed by the soul of the queen out of self-preservation."

It should be impossible for any foreign impurities to affect Isabella anymore, and her awakening is probably just a matter of time.

But the second feeling is different. It still exists and feels exactly the same as the curse that Holy Maiden had.

However, the curse has already been lifted by herself and there is no possibility of its resurgence. Therefore, the current situation is...

(Whispering) "There is more than one curse?"

The curse that only a person with imperial-level strength can truly lift exists in the queen's body, and there is not just one!

It is not impossible to deal with all the curses within today. She just needs to be more serious and she can complete it.

But in such a small country, going to such great lengths for other people's sake, a simple calculation would reveal that it is not worth it.

"This purification ceremony can only come to an end here."

The cross sword shrinks to its original size as a piece of jewelry, and Holy Maiden puts it back around her neck, her eyes locked on the exit.
