Shoujo Grand Summoning Chapter 1681

Chapter 1681

In a normal magic duel, targeting the Puppeteer is a standard tactic.

The rule behind preventing personal attacks on controllers during the Walpurgis Night is so that the partic.i.p.ants can showcase all their abilities without being defeated by simple tactics and sneak attacks.

However, a fight should be ended soon and without delay, in practical settings anyway.

After all, sparring instructors always told the students to drop the duel mindset in a real fight.

This is a real fight.

Magnus is the strongest student in history. He is also cold enough to execute his opponents so he won't be pulling punches.

Given how the dolls are directly attacking him, he already told Ikaros to stand ready for s.h.i.+elds, not that she would let Wu Yan be hurt while doing nothing.

Wu Yan waited for him to make the first move before making a counter.

It is a simple move consisting of giving 1/3 mana to Ikaros for defense, 1/3 to Natsuki for spatial transfers, and the last 1/3 to Astrea for a.s.saulting Magnus.

He has no guards right now.

With Magnus subdued, he can win in an instant.

Of course, Astrea must win first.

Clang

Astrea's sword hit the scythe of one of the automata Magnus had. She appeared in front of Magnus with her scythe to s.h.i.+eld her master.

She is the Kamakiri of his squad (Scythe character).

How did she appear in an instant near Magnus when she was attacking Wu Yan?

Astrea retreated while glancing at Kamakiri.

While Astrea might be surprised that the girl blocked her attack, the rest of the dolls are also very alarmed that Astrea could launch an attack that quickly.

Charlotte, Frey, and Rais.h.i.+n were observing the fight.

"That Kamakiri..."

Charlotte gasped.

"She can use spatial spells like Natsuki?!"

"Spatial transfer."

Frey a.n.a.lyzed.

"Spatial manipulation too?"

"Spatial magic."

Rais.h.i.+n clicked his tongue.

"So, you have a spatial transfer doll as well?"

Magnus looked at Natsuki when they mentioned her.

"Ah, you also have it, huh?"

Wu Yan grinned.

"Oh, but Natsuki isn't like Kamkiri, she's not limited to just transfers. She isn't a user of mere parlor tricks..."

"And..."

He infused Astrea with a dense ball of radiant mana.

"My Astrea isn't worse in a fight than Natsuki."

Astrea started glimmering with the mana.

She bent down like a predator before shooting at Magnus like a rocket.

Hotaru intercepted (automaton with a fire character as the mask), and she put herself between Astrea and Magnus.

Clang

The impact caused sparks to fly.

Vrmmm

A portal appeared near Hotaru, it whipped Hotaru with a heavy downward stroke.

Bam

Caught off-guard, the automaton got smacked into the distance.

Astrea continued her a.s.sault by seizing this chance.

Tamamus.h.i.+ (the automata with jewel character on its mask), jumped into action. She attempted to block with what looked like her bare hands.

It stopped the force Astrea generated with her sword.

She caught the blade with no problem.

It looked like corrosion of force but it was actually absorption.

Tamamus.h.i.+ absorbed the Photon sword until it dulled in radiance.

Chrsyaor shattered when her mana was absorbed.

Astrea, Charlotte, Frey, and Rais.h.i.+n turned grim.

"That is..."

Wu Yan frowned.

"Mana absorption?"

Tamamus.h.i.+ can absorb mana.

A doll without mana cannot move.

Astrea's abilities are limited to no mana means no skills.

It is a tricky magic to deal with, it can strengthen Magnus while weakening opponents by taking away their magic power and storing it for use later.
