☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- Tenshi-sama... - grinding her teeth and casting a half-dead glance at the raid girl boss, who apparently hadn't suffered enough, wrapped in a cloak to hide her underwear, the princess grips the hilt of her weapon, already stained with hundreds of liters of blood, even tighter.
Looking at the exhausted body of Erefir, at the charred bodies of her brothers, who had only miraculously reunited today, at all the others who had been drawn into this senseless slaughter, Aiyano raises her head to the sky - but sees nothing, as if it had never existed.
And so, in some unknown place and for some unknown purpose, far from her old and new loved ones, their end will come. "The challenge has been issued" - but not by these people, but by whom and why? By their Empress, who was watching this from the stands?... She shook her head - this was not the line of thought that would allow her to maintain her dignity, and it was not worth pursuing in this situation.
Raising her hand with the weapon towards the absent sky, in order to attract attention, which was not difficult to do, being in the very center of the cubic map, at some distance from the ground, she proclaims:
- Attention to all who have arrived! There is no time to explain; the only way to get out of this meat grinder is to defeat it, - the blade of the katana abruptly changes its direction from perpendicular to the ground to parallel, as if it were an executioner's axe, and points towards the monster. - Its strength is many times greater than anything you have faced before, but together, with a coordinated effort, we have a chance. The only alternative is to die ingloriously. Therefore, leave behind fear, any doubts and passions, as useless baggage, and show the universe what you are capable of! Linetta-dono! Tanomu, - nodding at the mercenary, to show confidence in her ability to telepathically intercept tactics and strategies from the last few dying brain cells of Erefir, she closes her eyes and briefly meditates, restoring the katana barrier.
