Among the densely packed trees of the forest, some of the branches began to move.
Not due to the weight of the snow, but entirely on their own.
Like a whip, the branches arced towards us. Though they seemed easily strong enough to punch through a human being like they were no more than paper, the unnatural branches were cut down with a single flash of Karabo's Black Key.
"So these are the branches that brought down your helicopter?" Staring down at the branches now writhing on the ground, Karabo spoke in a cold voice.
Neither his gaze nor his earlier strike belied any agitation at the sudden surprise attack. Was that a sign of what kind of conflict he had overcome in his life within the Holy Church?
From within the blizzard, another branch began reaching toward us, prompting me to take a combat ready stance.
"Add!"
"Ihihihihi!　Looks like it's our turn after all!"
Releasing the hook that held Add in place, he immediately slipped into my hand in the form of a scythe. Though I didn't really want to reveal him to everyone, this wasn't a situation where I could afford to think like that.
"Ooh, how dynamic!"
Blowing straight past Melvin's wide-eyed face, the scythe cut down the approaching branch.
