Shizuka stood in front of the giant flame that she and Kishi created. The hole that led to the rooms below the former well cracked more, but it was held by Seiya and Mizuto's combination spell.
Though she's grateful that others were kind enough to help her. Sighing, she gazed down on the sword dangling by her hips. The leathered hilt of her sheathed sword was darker than the whitish-silver blade of the weapon she chose.
Even if the Ichijou female could use any kinds of weapon she wanted, Shizuka chose the sword instead. Growing up with several sword users, Shizuka had learnt how to use one just by seeing.
Despite the fact that she preferred to use magic rather than weapons, the female's quite talented in using them. Shizuka tapped the end of the sword's hilt several times, humming in a thinking manner.
