Shizu - Cut Rope

“……Mm. But you took too long…… I’m going to clean up. One sec.”

Shizu leaned out the window and aimed her Mana Gun. When Neia held the rope as instructed, there was a sound like escaping air—psht—and some tension on the line. Shizu had cut the rope with her weapon.

They recovered the severed rope and tossed it into a corner. They had taken it down because they wouldn’t be using this route to return, but there were pros and cons to that plan.
