Chapter 410
Although it seemed like Lydia, the dancer, was the most suitable to defeat the siren’s performance, there was actually one girl who was an even better match-up. After all, Lydia was still bound by her legs. When it came to who was the fastest, the smoothest, or the most intricate, Celeste won hands down.
After all, she was a fairy of the wind. The fairy dance was an intricate part of their very being. Celeste began to fly, her body moving in intricate circles. Her glittery body caught the light, causing her movements to become even more exciting and eye-catching.
As for her song, it was something completely new. Fairies didn’t typically sing. However, a sylph could not just control the wind, but they could make vibrations that sounded just how they wanted. In short, she was able to merge both attributes at once! Right before our eyes, she seemed to create the first fairy song, an auditory manifestation of the fairy dance.
When combined together, it was a jaw-dropping sight that left everyone in a daze. We couldn’t even think to act as backup dancers to her movements. They weren’t needed, as she caught every eye. The song had no words but inflamed the soul. I felt energy and strength flowing in. I began to realize that not only was it a song, but it had magic infused in it as well. She had emulated the siren’s ability and then improved upon it by several-fold.
I had the feeling that I was being hit with a buff that increased my strength and stamina. Similarly, the other side was being hit with a debuff. The bond between the undead was broken with a snap. I had been feeling out the mark on them when it suddenly was interrupted by her song, so I had a better feel for it now.
The six undead creatures fell to the ground in a heap. The siren, who was being held by them, was dropped onto the floor. She let out a cry as she hit the ground. Even though this happened, she was still looking at the Sylph floating through the air, unable to take her eyes away.
Celeste’s music didn’t just hold a magical power, but it also was beautiful enough to take one’s breath away. It sounded like gentle bells and the twinkling of stars. The song grew more and more powerful until the very air resonated. Suddenly, there was a feeling like mana was being sucked into her. The tremoring air grew until it felt dangerous for a moment. The siren stood up, raising her hands as if she was about to attack.
It was at that moment, I noticed that the song was hitting her bond as well. I felt a sudden impulse to use the Slave Taker ability. I attacked her strange mark, attempting to take control of it. Unlike with slaves, this wasn’t easy at all. I could tell the Slave Taker ability wasn’t designed to handle this kind of mark. In fact, I felt like I was changing it on the fly to compensate. Furthermore, the siren fought back, she let out a cry, but the sound was completely destroyed by Celeste’s rising music.
If Celeste’s music hadn’t first weakened the bond, I knew I wouldn’t have been able to do this, but suddenly my magic slipped into place and her bond became mine. At that exact moment, Celeste finished her dance. Glittery sparkles exploded out from her in the air, lighting up the entire room like a fireworks display.
