She ran across the river by breaking the fence blocking it, passing through the underdrains to the road, from there, they ran ten steps before Patricia turned around, something hit her. The impact and acceleration dropped, Shadow Gale had to cling on just to avoid falling.

There was a Magical Girl. It wasn’t the Armor Magical Girl. She had a trident. She was surrounded with sparkling things floating around her. She had no expression, but she was staring at them.

Patricia swung her weapon, the enemy parried it with her trident.

—Weapon?

It wasn’t Patricia’s weapon. Her weapon was the magical handcuffs that were restraining the Armor Magical Girl, she had no choice but to leave that one. Right now, she was wielding Shadow Gale’s large wrench. She swung the wrench to the right, the enemy’s trident moved, reappearing in front of them. When Patricia swung the wrench, it was sandwiched between the trident’s handle.

The sound of metal struck. Patricia now had giant scissors on her left hand. That was also one of Shadow Gale’s unique items. What’s going on? Patricia was moving at a speed too fast for Shadow Gale to comprehend. Perhaps, she was trying to get her enemy off-balance by swinging her scissors. However, somehow she still couldn’t hit her. She managed to scratch her in the cheeks, but that’s it.

A metal sound rang again. This time Shadow Gale saw it. Patricia swung the scissors again, due to the subtle change in trajectory, it didn’t hit.

The floating things prevented the scissors from hitting. The enemy reached for the scissors, and clashed with Patricia who tried to throw away the scissors.
