Anne swung her dual swords lightly and shot a sword strike. She swiftly defeated the Tona brothers who charged at her and immediately focused on targeting Mary.

However, the Tona brothers evaded Anne's sword strike and showed the power to instantly collapse one side of the outer wall where Myu and Anne were standing.

Due to the crumbling wall, Myu and Anne had to find a landing point and confirm Mary's location again.

Mary was already charging towards the inner castle, but she was momentarily obscured by dust and debris.

[These pests...!]

"Hahaha, did you miss us?"

"Did you think we would just let you go with one attack?"

[Anne, take care of those bugs. I'll handle Mary.]

While saying that, Myu looked ahead with surprise.

Daytona was suddenly pointing his greatsword towards her.

"You're facing us, Myu. Aren't you underestimating us too much? Well, we've made countless efforts to capture you all... so it's possible."

"Huh, you still haven't grasped the situation and are sitting here worrying about elder sister Mary. Hey, Anne, wake up. You almost lost your throat just now. Huh? Well, even if it's cut off, can't you just attach it back?"

Chaos flowed from Anne's neck like a stream of blood.

Haytona habitually tried to lick the chaos stuck to his chain sword, but when he confirmed that it wasn't blood, he spat it out.

Myu raised the wind of her sword and cleared away the dirt and dust.

Mary's figure couldn't be seen.

She felt a surge of anger, but soon the sisters faced the Tona brothers, giving up on Mary.

There was no need to chase Mary vigorously anyway, as Ilina was present.

However, the fact that this situation had been created by the Tona brothers, whom she always looked down on like bugs, made her unable to bear their anger.

[Mary would have been better off dying in our hands... You still have no sense. I've changed my mind. I'll deal with you. And I'll spare your lives. You will, as all rebels struggle against our mother.]

"You annoying little pests, eat this! The eleventh decisive killing move of our clan!"

[Eleventh?]

There were a total of ten decisive killing moves in Runcandel. So both sisters momentarily thought that there might be a decisive killing move they didn't know about and stopped speaking.

In other words, they were caught off guard. Meanwhile, the Tona brothers were already displaying their own "combined technique."

-I've experienced countless swords so far, but I've never seen such a chaotic, disorderly, and lowly combination. Even the world's greatest swordsman, Runcandel, never showed me something like this as a new decisive killing move....

-Ah...are you going that far? Sir Hedo.

-This is truly trash. I've never imagined such a shoddy sword.

-Is there no room for improvement?

-None... However, it's not a sword to be discarded either. Its chaotic nature might even be effective at times. Unless you're an exceptional sword master, encountering something like this would initially confuse you. It seems like it would be very effective against those who lack depth. Well, have you given it a name?

-It's called "Tona wild dance."

-Tona Dump or Tona-style eating, a name that reflects the messiness, might be more fitting... But Tona wild dance, alright. Since you mentioned it as a move, the name should be somewhat decent. It should be used to confuse the opponent and then decide the outcome.

The reason why Tona brothers called their combined move "Tona wild dance" and claimed it to be the eleventh decisive killing move of their clan was because after completing the move, they received such advice from Hedo.

'What... The eleventh decisive killing move of the clan?'

That couldn't be true.

As soon as the chaos began, the faces of Myu and Anne distorted.

The Tona brothers were already wreaking havoc in all directions, with the great sword slashing the ground and the chain sword tearing through the chaos. The brothers' rampage never ceased.

The problem was that none of their countless attacks reached Myu and Anne.

Myu and Anne occasionally brushed away flying debris and laughed hollowly.

"The next is the Third Decisive Killing move: Meteor Shower!"

"The Fifth Secret Technique: Light Speed Thrust!"

Meanwhile, as the Tona brothers continued their chaos, they added nonsense to their attacks, making the Myu and Anne flinch a few times. Eventually, Myu and Anne gathered their strength and prepared to strike with force. There was nothing better than avoiding such a baseless sword.

However, as if the Tona brothers had predicted all of this, in the moment when Myu and Anne gathered their strength, they unleashed their true decisive killing moves.

4th decisive killing move, falling petals and 6th decisive killing move, lightning. Daytona jumped out of a wild dance with falling petals and Haytona spreading lightning.

Clang! Crash!

The brothers' and sisters' swords clashed, and shockwaves spread.

Although the Tona brothers were pushed back more, they soon resumed their wild dance and turned the tables on both sisters.

"Kekekek."

"You fell for it again!"

Myu and Anne met all the conditions mentioned by Hedo.

They were experiencing this absurd decisive killing move for the first time, and although they had become stronger due to the chaos, they lacked depth as individuals.

[Wow, it's truly a bug-like move.]

Anne chuckled, but it was clear that the sisters were not effectively dealing with the Tona wild dance.

The "one blow" that the Tona brothers mentioned to Mary was effectively pressuring the sisters.

However, the wild dance had a fatal flaw.

It consumed a tremendous amount of stamina.

The Tona brothers could only sustain the wild dance for about 10 minutes at their current state.

Within that time, they had to either decide the outcome or receive support from an ally.

After that time passed, they wouldn't have enough stamina left to escape.

As the battle between the Tona brothers and Myu sisters continued, new enemies appeared on the battlefield in the plains of the Rikalton Castle behind them.

"Zhushen, are you okay?"

Luton shouted. As the former enforcement knight of Runcandel, he was currently leading the youngest squad to rescue prisoners.

Debris from the ground flew relentlessly towards Luton and the youngest squad as the fists of the giant tree struck the ground.

Thanks to Hedo, they were rarely directly attacked, but dangerous moments occasionally arose.

"I'm fine!"

"Stick close to Scott and take a moment to rest. You can't continue the mission if you're exhausted. Misa, you will temporarily take responsibility for Zhushen's area."

"Yes, Sir Luton!"

The battlefield was filled with massive rifts created by the giant trees.

Luton grabbed a falling fruit from one rift and discovered that it led to an underground tunnel.

'This is what Sir Jin mentioned...!"'

Crack!

As Luton realized it, a blade emerged from the underground, barely grazing his cheek as it passed by.

Luton stepped back and swung his sword, drawing the attention of the youngest squad.

Knights wearing black robes emerged from the tunnel.

Luton recognized their attire as the old Black Sword Association robes he wore when he was an enforcement knight.

[Luton… you are really alive.]

"Vex, it's you. And beside you, Lain, Rihanna, and Sinatra."

[We're honored that you remember our names, former enforcement knight Luton Ferman.]

-Black Sword Association, subdue Joshua Runcandel.

-Yes, madame!

-Lain, Vex, Rihanna... and Sinatra too. So all of you... were members of the Black Sword Association!

Vex, Lain, Rihanna, and Sinatra were the knights who suppressed Joshua when he fell, belonging to the Black Sword Association.

Before joining the Black Sword Association, they had performed missions together as enforcement knights like Luton.

"I've heard from Sir Jin that you were still serving as Rosa's lap dogs. But I never thought you would still be there when the clan reached this point. If you had any pride left, you would have chosen to fight alongside the resistance and die when Rosa corrupted by chaos. Yet you show up like this."

[The hunting dog that was abandoned and luckily picked up by the 12th flagbearer is barking uncontrollably. How about it? Will you pledge loyalty to madame Rosa again? If you do, you could become Runcandel's enforcement knights once more.]

"Put this nonsense aside and come at me! Your dead comrades are waiting for you in the afterlife... Youngest division! Retreat immediately and relocate if possible, preferably to where Sir Hedo is!"

Standing in front of Luton were four Chaos Knights.

Although their numbers were fewer than Luton's side, they were already beyond what the youngest division could handle.

Luton was trying to create enough time for the youngest division to escape, but three figures in black robes were already emerging from a rift on the youngest division's side.

[It's been a while, puppies of Jin Runcandel.]

[You haven't forgotten our voices, have we?]

"Kajin Romello, the Hass brothers...!?"

Kajin Romello, Mayl Hass and Rima Hass, members of the Intermediate Class who belonged to the Myu and Anne factions. They had joined Jin on missions during the Intermediate Class but were abandoned by Myu and Anne and expelled from the clan.

When the three of them were expelled, no one in the Intermediate Class felt sorry for them. It was because of the atrocities they committed while carrying Myu and Anne on their backs during their time in the Intermediate Class.

-I may seem ridiculous now. But soon, you will be in the same position as me. Purebloods and us are different. No matter how hard you try, you're just raised dogs, and this is where you'll end up... Kukuku, farewell.

Those were Kajin Romello's words as he left the Intermediate Class.

"Wow, I didn't expect to come across those bastards here."

"So, after being abandoned by Myu and Anne factions, you reluctantly crawled back to the corrupted Garden of Swords? Well, the Garden of Swords is the perfect stage for trash like you."

The youngest division glared at the group led by Kajin as they adjusted their formation.

However, Misa concluded that following Luton's orders was the priority.

"Bellop, Scott and I will stay here and deal with them. The rest of you retreat and inform the rear of the situation. Otherwise, we won't be able to save Sir Luton."

The fight between those tarnishing Runcandel and those trying to reclaim it continued.

The former had an overwhelmingly advantageous position.

The youngest division retreated under Misa's command, and the remaining members engaged in combat, preventing the enemies from pursuing them.

In this way, new battles unfolded throughout the battlefield.

Most of them were fights between Runcandel and corrupted Runcandel, like Jin and Diphus, Mary and the Prophet, the Tona brothers and the Myu sisters, and the youngest division and the Chaos Knights.

However, on the opposite side of the youngest division, the former Imperial Special Forces clashed with the current Special Forces.

"Kah!"

Alisa cried out as she was struck by something and was thrown back.

"Alisa Badger, former member of Imperial Special Forces 2nd division and a traitor to the imperial family. I shall execute you in the name of the great Vermont Imperial Family."

Codename Wratch, leader of the former Vermont Special Forces 3rd division.

Suddenly, he aimed his sword at the fallen Alisa.
