Peace Hunter

Meanwhile, far from where the woman and Duchess Arlet were,

Duke San Lucia's knights were seen continuing to run away from the Orokho Mountains.

"Don't stop! Keep running as Miss Duchess has ordered. We must retrieve the bodies of our comrades first. After that, we will gather a large number of reinforcements to assist the Duchess," said one of the knights.

"Yes!" said the others.

The knifhts continued running without stopping. As they continued running, they suddenly felt a powerful tremor in the area. They were all shocked by the tremor, which made them pause for a moment.

"What is this tremor?!?!

"This tremor is very powerful," said the knights.

While the knights were shocked and confused by the tremor, one of the knights told the others to keep running and not stop.

"All of you, don't stop and keep running," said the knighg.

"Ah, that's right, we must obey Duchess Arlet's orders to keep running. Come on, everyone, keep running,"

"Yes!" said the other knights.

The knights began running again, ignoring the tremors that were occurring in their area. Then, as they were running, suddenly many large sharp ice spikes appeared from beneath their feet. The knights who saw this were shocked.

"All of you, get out of the way!" said one of the knights.

The knights quickly dodged the ice spikes that appeared from beneath their feet. But the spikes appeared faster than they could move, and several soldiers were hit by them. The sharp ice spikes managed to cut the arms and legs of some of the knights they hit. Furthermore, the ice spikes also impaled the knights they hit, sending them flying high into the air.

Meanwhile, the other soldiers who weren't hit by the spikes looked extremely anxious and frightened as they saw their comrades being hit by the spikes. After seeing their comrades hit by the spikes, they ran again to leave the area. However, it was only a matter of time before They were also hit by the spikes, as they continued to appear until all the knights were hit. One by one, the knights who continued running were also hit by the spikes. Until finally, all the knights were hit by the spikess.

*AAAAARRRGGGHHHHHHHH

Loud screams of pain rang out from where the knights were hit by the thorns. The screams could even be heard as far as Duchess Arlet.

"Screams?! They're coming from where my knights are?! What's going on?!?" asked Duchess Arlet, looking confused.

Meanwhile, the woman with the horns and dragon tail in front of Duchess Arlet was smiling.

"It looks like your knights are in trouble. It seems they can't continue to leave these mountains," the woman said.

"You... Did you just do something to my knights?!" Duchess Arlet asked.

"That's right, didn't I say that I wouldn't let your knights leave these mountains?," the woman asked.

"But how could you?!?! With you still here, how could you do something to my knights who are already far away from this place?!" Duchess Arlet asked.

Hearing Duchess Arlet's question, the woman burst out laughing.

"Ahahahaha, are you seriously asking that? When you came to these mountains to kill me, you should have already known why you wanted to kill me. And also, you should have known a little about my powers."

"I was the one who turned these mountains into ice mountains and changed the climate and temperature to cold. The impact of this changing terrain and climate has also affected the surrounding areas. Therefore, you intend to kill me to return the terrain and climate to normal."

"Since I turned these mountains into ice mountains and changed the climate and temperature to cold, you should know why I was able to do something to your knights even though we were so far apart," the woman said.

Duchess Arlet was immediately shocked upon hearing the woman's words. Duchess Arlet seemed to have just realized something from what the woman had said.

"Don't tell me..." Duchess Arlet said.

"That's right. Even though your knights are far away, as long as they're still in these mountains, they're still within my attack range. Since I'm the one who changed the terrain and climate of these mountains, I can manipulate them however I want. If I wanted to, I could have wiped out your knights just by moving my hands, but I chose to move my whole body because I wanted some exercise. It's been a long time since I last moved my whole body," the woman said.

Duchess Arlet fell silent after hearing the woman's words. Her face looked slightly anxious. Meanwhile, the woman in front of her smiled. Then, the screams coming from the knights' area returned.

*AAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHH

"Hmm, it seems some of the knights survived the 'surprise' I gave them. Their screams were quite disturbing. I'll silence them," the woman said.

The woman then closed her eyes. Then, she began to stretch out her arms.

~Ice Magic: Great Blizzard~

After that, a powerful blizzard suddenly appeared where they were. Duchess Arlet was shocked by the sudden appearance of the blizzard.

"A blizzard?!?! It looks like that woman is planning to do something, I have to stop her," said Duchess Arlet.

Duchess Arlet prepared to attack the woman. But the blizzard that appeared in the area was so powerful that Duchess Arlet was unable to move and focused solely on defending herself from being blown away by the blizzard.

Meanwhile, the woman, who had previously stretched out her arms, slowly began to move them forward. After that, she began making hand gestures. At the same time, the blizzard that had appeared in the area began to move with her hands. She continued making hand movements until finally, her hands appeared to be forming a ball. The blizzard that had appeared followed her movements, causing the blizzard to slowly subside and gradually shrink into a ball. Duchess Arlet was surprised to see that the blizzard had subsided and even disappeared.

"The blizzard is gone?" Duchess Arlet asked.

Duchess Arlet then looked at the woman. In front of her was a ball of magic mixed with white and blue. The ball looked very dense, unlike the one she had previously created. Then, the woman pointed her right hand at the ball. After that, she grasped the ball until it shattered with her right hand. After the ball shattered, a white and blue arrow suddenly appeared in her right hand. The arrow appeared to be imbued with very dense magic.

Then, the woman pointed her left hand forward. A bow made of ice suddenly appeared in her left hand. Duchess Arlet looked confused by the bow and arrow she had created.

"A bow and arrow? Don't tell me that woman..." said Duchess Arlet.

After that, the woman prepared to shoot the arrow she had created with the bow she had also created. Seeing this, Duchess Arlet immediately darted toward the woman.

"I won't let you," said Duchess Arlet.

Duchess Arlet attempted to attack the woman, but she quickly evaded her attack by flying upward. She was seen flying upward using a pair of wings that had suddenly appeared on her back. Duchess Arlet looked shocked when she saw the woman flying using both wings.

"Why can that woman still fly using her wings?! Didn't I cut them off earlier?!" Duchess Arlet asked.

But Duchess Arlet didn't think much of it and immediately jumped up to catch up with the woman. Meanwhile, the woman continued flying until she was very high up. Then, after feeling she had reached a sufficient altitude, she stopped. Then, she looked down at the spot where the knights had been hit by the ice spikes and aimed her arrow there. Meanwhile, Duchess Arlet continued jumping upward to catch up with the woman, but it seemed she wouldn't be able to do so due to the great distance between them.

Then, the woman prepared to fire the arrow. The woman slowly opened her previously closed eyes. Her ice-blue eyes were shining brightly.

~Ice Magic: Great Blizzard Arrow - Frossen Ruin~

The woman then fired the arrow at the knights who were hit by the ice spikes. Duchess Arlet, who was leaping toward the woman, immediately turned her head toward the arrow.

"Damn, I didn't have time to stop it," said Duchess Arlet.

The arrow flew swiftly toward the knights. Then, it struck the ground in the center of the area. The arrow immediately exploded, releasing a massive blast of ice magic.

*BOOMMMMMMM

The explosion of ice magic was so powerful that it caused the mountains to tremble. A powerful gust of wind was created from the massive explosion. Following the explosion, a white cloud of smoke appeared and enveloped the area.

Not long after, the cloud of smoke slowly began to dissipate. Once it cleared, the area became clear. The entire area had been turned into ice. The snow, rocks, and trees covered in snow had all turned into ice. Not only that, all the knights in that place had frozen and turned to ice. Some of the frozen knights' bodies had been shattered into pieces, while others remained frozen intact.

Duchess Arlet, who was looking at the scene, was shocked to see the state of the place and her knights.

"H-how could this happen?!?!," said Duchess Arlet.

Then, Duchess Arlet looked up at the woman.

"I thought that woman was a dangerous creature, but she's even more dangerous than I thought. That woman... she's a very dangerous monster," said Duchess Arlet, looking at the woman.

The woman was still flying overhead, holding her bow and looking down at the frozen knights. She looked down at them with a smile, her eyes still shining brightly.
