Putting Vivian down, Aestrea approached the massive double door in front of him and slowly pushed it, causing an increasingly loud creaking sound to echo through the halls.
Fwip!
Just then, a sword suddenly shot towards him at an extremely fast speed, just to be blocked by a flick of his fingers.
"A-Aestrea...?"
Clink!
In front of him, many more flying swords could be seen, and as soon as those reached his ears, they started falling onto the ground, making metal sounds.
"I-Is t-that you?"
Isabella spoke in an incredibly expectant voice, tears swelling up in her eyes as she looked deeply at Aestrea.
"Am I dreaming?" she pondered, rubbing her red eyes for a moment, and then, blinking.
And seeing Aestrea smiling, and then shaking his head, caused her reddened eyes to widen.
Without wasting any more time, she enveloped her legs with mana and shot towards Aestrea at full force.
Thud!
