Trixie looked up at the last person she expected to see: Esther. The mute girl handed Trixie a paper note with a smirk, the note reading, “Missed me, Trixie? ;)”

Trixie then just stared at Esther after reading her note, unable to speak a word as she gazed up at her fellow Fairylyl Alliance member.

Vladislava and Yuroslava, on the other hand, scowled at the appearance of their former guardian, their surprise washed away by disdain.

“And there we have it, the traitor,” Vladislava huffed.

“You too?” Yuroslava joined. “No matter. Two of you or not, we will kill two birds with one stone.”

Trixie held her ground, her eyes shifting between the twins. She noticed the way they fixated on Esther and didn't like it. "You lay one finger on her and you'll regret it.”

Vladislava let out a laugh, her smirk growing. "Oh, we'll take pleasure in doing more than just laying a finger on her."

Yuroslava crossed her arms with nonchalance in her eyes, adding, “We'll make sure she remembers where her loyalty should have been.”

Trixie clenched her fists tighter. "Over my dead body."

Esther stayed silent. Her eyes were fixed on the twins, her expression still stoic. It was almost as if she was daring them to make a move.

The twins exchanged a look before Vladislava chuckled darkly.

"Challenge accepted."

Yuroslava followed, her voice sharp and stern. "This should be easy.”

Okay then, Trixie thought. This is a two-on-two fight now, so things should go a lot smoother.

The twins were the first to make a move. Yuroslava and Vladislava split up, circling around Trixie and Esther like vultures circling around their prey. It was a clear attempt to confuse them and isolate them. Trixie and Esther reacted quickly, keeping their backs to each other to maintain a constant guard.

The twins seemed pleased with this development, closing in on their targets. The first strike came from Vladislava, who aimed a kick at Trixie. At the same time, Yuroslava lashed out at Esther with a powerful punch.

Both Trixie and Esther dodged their respective attacks, but the onslaught of moves kept coming. The twins worked in tandem, one attacking while the other covered, their rhythm relentless and challenging for Trixie and Esther to break.

The twins fought with a coordinated efficiency that was near flawless. They seemed to move in perfect unison, anticipating each other's moves and covering for one another's weaknesses. The synchronization made it near impossible for Trixie and Esther to find an opening to counterattack.

Damnit, Trixie thought. This is the same situation I was in before - left blocking with no room to get a hit of my own in.

Trixie's body ached from the hits she received from the twins' coordinated strikes. It seemed like the two were everywhere at once, always coming at her and Esther from different directions with uncanny precision.

Trixie growled and shot her aura out in all directions, pushing the twins back. Esther then pulled out a book and flipped to a certain page. After a brief moment, her eyes glowed bright as her aura swelled around her body.

Vladislava and Yuroslava stumbled back, shocked at the sudden display of power. They knew that something wasn't right.

Yuroslava muttered, “What the hell… What's going on with Esther?”

Vladislava's eyes narrowed. "She's never displayed this kind of strength before. What has she done to herself?”

Trixie smirked, seeing the surprise in the twins' eyes. She knew that Esther had a trick up her sleeve, and she was excited to see what it was.

"You two didn't expect the timid nun to pull a fast one like this, did you?" Trixie taunted.

The twins' surprise faded quickly, replaced with irritation. They were not used to being caught off guard, and they didn't like the feeling.

Yuroslava sneered. "Don't get cocky. We won't fall for a cheap trick like…whatever this is.”

The twins responded by lunging at Trixie and Esther again, this time with increased ferocity.

Yuroslava yelled, "We'll show you what true power is, you little brats.”

Esther countered their attack with a powerful palm strike to Yuroslava's chest, knocking her to the floor before ducking below Vladislava's punch. Her retaliation was a knee to Vladislava's midsection with incredible strength, causing the twin sister to stagger back in pain.

"Ugh," Vladislava groaned, grabbing her stomach. "What the hell did she do to become this much stronger...?"

Trixie smirked. "Looks like the tables have turned.”

Yuroslava got back up from the floor, shaking off the impact of Esther's shove. She shot a death glare at the mute.

"You will pay for that," she hissed, her voice filled with seething anger.

Esther stood her ground, her expression still stoic. She didn't look afraid at all, which annoyed the twins even more.

Yuroslava growled, "You think you're tough now, don't you, little girl?”

"We will not let this stand," Yuroslava vowed, her voice filled with frustration.

"We will put you two in your place," Vladislava added, her smugness now morphed into frustration.

"Good luck with that," Trixie taunted.

Esther, meanwhile, kept her composure, silently daring the twins to make a move.

With the twins dashing in once more, the battle picked up in pace, becoming more intense and chaotic. Trixie and Esther did their best to keep up with the twins' relentless assault, each blow ringing out with a powerful impact. The air crackled with energy, the clash of their auras creating a spectacle to behold. The twins pushed and pushed even more, trying to wear down Trixie and Esther's defenses, primarily the latter's. Their coordinated attacks came in waves, one immediately following the other with barely a pause in between until Trixie and Esther's vision became a blur of fists and feet. They were not going to hold back, determined to regain the upper hand.

Taking advantage of an opening that Yuroslava made, Vladislava threw a punch at Trixie's chest. Esther blocked the blow with her forearm in the nick of time, and countered with a swift kick to her shoulder, making her stumble back.

Without a word, the Fyodorova twins used Increase and dashed at Trixie for a swift, coordinated attack too quick for either her or even Esther to catch with their naked eyes. The twins' feet moved in sync with each other as they leaped forward with a powerful dual kick aimed at Trixie's gut, intending to knock the wind out of her.

Despite the impact of the kick breaking her aura shield, Trixie held her ground, gasping for breath. Her eyes went wide at Vladislava's incoming fist as it came towards her face, but just as she was about to counter, Yuroslava stepped back and sent a swift kick to the side of her head. The blow left Trixie's vision swimming from the sudden force. However, she refused to let it bring her down, pushing herself back up as quickly as she could, only to be met with another barrage of attacks from the twins.

Esther watched as the twins continued their assault on Trixie, her brows furrowing in concern. But she was not about to let the twins have their way. Seeing an opportunity, she stepped in, intercepting Vladislava's punch and Yuroslava's kick with either hand.

The swift and unexpected interception caught the twins off guard, giving Trixie a brief respite from their frenzied attack. They whirled around to face Esther, their eyes narrowed with annoyance.

Yuroslava growled, her lips curled into a sneer. "You're getting in our way, traitor.”

Esther met their gaze with an unwavering stare, her expression calm despite the challenging situation. She held her ground, silently daring the twins to make another move.

Vladislava rolled her eyes at Esther's stoicism. "You're always so silent. Maybe we should fix that and make you scream.”

Trixie, having caught her breath, interjected with a fierce tone, "You won't touch her!”

Vladislava smirked at Trixie's words. "Oh, really? And who's going to stop us? You?”

Trixie shot a sharp glare back at her. "You bet your Kamagirian ass I will.”

The twins exchanged looks, their confidence unwavering as they used Increase once more. "We'd like to see you try," they said in unison, their voices laced with mockery as they were more than eager for round two.
