335: conflict

Ally cleaved the Rock Demon in half, and its body crashed to the ground, then shattered into a pile of rubble due to the collapse of its magic, becoming ordinary stones without the blessing of magic.

Ally tapped her toes on the ground and charged towards Lilita.

Lilita raised both hands, and magic runes surged.

A burst of flames roared up and rushed towards Ally.

Terrifying flames swept over with scorching high temperatures.

Ally commanded the Flames and Thunder Power.

Facing the flame witchcraft Lilita used, although she didn't know its name, it didn't matter.

Poof!

Ally directly charged into the flames.

"Master Ally!" Lyas couldn't help but exclaim.

Lilita frowned slightly; she hadn't expected Ally to charge into her flame witchcraft!

Did she not react in time? Lilita pondered, but still prepared a backup plan. As a high-ranking witch, she was not someone who would let her guard down.

Poof!

Ally charged out of the flames, holding her knight's sword, and struck down with a single slash.

Clang!

Ally's sword struck the Rebound Forcefield around Lilita.

Immediately after, Ally felt a powerful rebound force that directly sent her flying backward.

Lilita staggered back a few steps, looking at her Rebound Forcefield, which was on the verge of collapsing. Her expression was slightly shocked: "What terrifying power! But, you must not feel good from such a rebound, right?"

Ally flew backward, flipped a few times, and landed steadily.

"It's alright, the force was absorbed quite cleanly," Ally nodded, actually answering Lilita's question.

Lilita looked at Ally, already sensing how troublesome Ally was.

She hadn't expected Ally's strength to be so formidable, and her attack power was extremely terrifying!

She didn't know where that sword technique came from, it could even cleave a Rock Demon directly!

Lilita raised her hand, and magic runes surged around her.

"Um, you're Lyas's mother, and I'm Lyas's swordmaster. You're essentially a student's parent, so let's end this battle here. I've already shown you my strength," Ally said to Lilita.

"..." Lilita looked at Ally, this "stranger," who appeared from nowhere. Was she really from another world, as she claimed?

Then why would she seek out Lyas?

Lilita was not reassured and remained wary and suspicious of Ally. Moreover, she did not want Ally to learn swordsmanship. Lyas was the most talented witch! She should focus on learning witchcraft!

She could become the strongest witch in history!

"I'm very sorry, but I don't agree with you becoming my daughter's sword teacher," Lilita said, shaking her head slightly.

"You don't acknowledge my strength?" Ally raised an eyebrow. If you think that, then we'll have to fight again. If it weren't to demonstrate swordsmanship and her power with it, Ally wouldn't use other powers, such as the power of the Three Dragon Gods or Clarissa's power.

In their brief exchange just now, Ally only used the power of the Star Sword Technique.

Well, except for the moment she broke through the flames, she used the power of flames.

There was no other way; because she could control it, she subconsciously passed right through.

"No, I acknowledge your strength! Your strength is indeed very strong, but Lyas is destined to become the strongest witch! She has that talent, and focus is paramount on the path of cultivation," Lilita said to Ally.

"Mom! I want to, as we agreed before, have free time after I finish my daily homework! You promised me!" Lyas couldn't help but speak up at this moment. What if Ally was persuaded and gave up teaching her... that would truly be too... unbearable.

Lyas knew that Ally was her last hope.

If she didn't seize this opportunity now, she might never be able to touch a sword in her life.

Besides, Master Ally's Star Sword Technique was the world's number one sword technique!

How could Lyas, who already loved swordsmanship, miss such a great opportunity to learn the world's number one sword technique?

"But you didn't say before that you were going to practice swordsmanship! You clearly said you were going to relax and play. I don't object to that, but you cannot cultivate swordsmanship! You need to focus! My dear," Lilita said earnestly to Lyas, "Mom is doing this for your own good! I would never harm you! You cannot waste your talent!"

Lyas pursed her lips, clearly displeased but not daring to refute Lilita.

"Um, I'm very sorry, madam. Since Lyas has already taken me as her master, then I need to teach her swordsmanship. If you don't agree, then I'll just have to reason with you," Ally said, shrugging slightly.

For source points, she chose the most direct method.

She really didn't want to think too hard or waste time on this matter.

One must know, if she didn't start teaching swordsmanship now, then today's teaching task might not count, which would mean losing a day's "source points income."

Cutting off someone's financial path is like killing their parents.

If Ally were to lose a day's source points reward, Ally would get angry! Absolutely furious!

When Lilita heard Ally's words, her gaze involuntarily shifted, becoming slightly colder: "Ally, isn't it? Lyas is my daughter. If I don't want her to learn swordsmanship from you... you can't stop it, and neither can she!"

Lilita looked at Lyas: "Lyas, I only want you to walk well on the path of a witch. You will understand Mom's painstaking efforts in the future! Promise Mom, you must study witchcraft diligently, understood?"

Lyas pursed her lips, her face dim as she nodded: "I understand..."

Hiss! My short temper! Ally looked at the situation before her and immediately felt her teeth ache: "I can't stand this anymore! How about this: either Lyas learns swordsmanship from me, or, as she just said, she studies swordsmanship with me after completing her daily lessons.

I think there's no conflict in that. Moreover, as a witch, she also possesses the strength of a knight. Combining the two, wouldn't her strength become even greater? A person with no blind spots!"

Lilita looked at Ally: "Even if that were to happen, it would be after she enters the intermediate witch stage! At least after mastering third-tier witchcraft would I consider this! For now, her most important task is to diligently study witchcraft and meditation!"

"The purpose of meditation isn't just to increase spiritual power? Practicing my swordsmanship can also increase spiritual power! And strengthen the body! Much better than your meditation!" Ally said.

"Are you sure?" Lilita narrowed her eyes when she heard Ally's words.

If that were truly the case, then... perhaps practicing swordsmanship wasn't such a bad thing after all.

Lilita was not a stubborn person. Although she did appear somewhat "autocratic," she was genuinely doing what she believed was best for Lyas.
