The First Magic World War
Charlotte Meklen had crossed into the Fars Empire, seeking only to become a civil servant in a different continent. She wasn't a combatant... But who would have thought that even clerical staff would end up on the battlefield!
The Proof of Oath
Charles dragged his Collapsing Mountain backward and took a diagonal step back, then he shook his spear to counterattack.
On the battlefield, rapiers weren't quite the suitable weapon, and Charles had gradually got used to using the Knight's Spear. The spears and gunmanship of the Black Phoenix Dynasty differed slightly from those popular in Fars, Byron, and Inglima, with the Black Phoenix's technique being more exquisite and possessing many unexpected variations.
In comparison, the gunmanship of Fars, Byron, and Inglima was relatively simple and unadorned. Even the Wings of Heaven, famed for its variability in Byron's gunmanship, was slightly inferior in terms of variety.
Fortunately, Charles had the Quickness Technique x10, and every exchange was fast against slow, pulling the fight into his own rhythm.
