Mengdie was fully focused on the white shadow, perhaps too concentrated to notice the unusual airflow around her fists. But her lack of attention didn't mean the royal knights hadn't noticed! Especially Sisco, who exerted all his magical power to break through the mysterious force suppressing his voice, finally managed to shout out—
"Dre... your... fist... !!!"
His voice was so intermittent, after a few simple words, he couldn't speak again. It seemed to be another masterpiece of the shadow lurking in the dark.
However, Sisco's warning made Mengdie slightly puzzled. She raised her fists to look, but at that moment, the chaotic air surrounding her fists suddenly dispersed, forming invisible, small air currents that began to envelop her entire body! These air currents were too subtle, so small that even Sisco couldn't detect them, but they covered every hair, every inch of skin, and even every breath of Mengdie like a dense spider web!
The fleeting "wind" shocked the white shadow, but seeing it disappear, his smile returned.
"It seems the last hit will still be borne by you. Sweetheart, I really want to advise you, girls should be gentle, it's more likable."
Had it been any other day, such thoughtless words from the white shadow would have immediately ignited Mengdie's fury. But now, she wasn't angry. Her calm eyes showed no confusion, and her stance was flawless! She was waiting, searching, for that perfect moment to strike. Until then, nothing else mattered to her but the enemy before her.

"Crackle... crack..."
Crumbling walls shed stones and dust, and as a small piece of lime fell from the wall and shattered on the ground...

Mengdie moved!
Facing Mengdie charging at him, the white shadow remained composed. To him, the girl's speed was still too slow. So slow that he could even yawn! He curled his right middle finger, aiming at Mengdie's forehead, preparing to flick her down for good.
Mengdie gritted her teeth and hummed softly. Knowing she couldn't match the white shadow's speed, she aimed for the moment he would strike, ready to endure another hit to grab him! Only by closing the distance between them could she engage in her preferred close-range combat.
So, she crouched down, concentrating all her strength into her legs, then suddenly propelled herself forward! The white shadow's finger had already reached Mengdie's forehead and flicked. It seemed the final hit was about to land!
"......!!!"
But then, something unbelievable happened. Mengdie, who should have been hit by the flick, vanished from in front of him!
By the time he realized, the girl had already appeared behind him.
"How... possible! Your speed... I didn't see it!!!"
Yes, Mengdie had dodged. Dodged an undodgeable strike! Not just the white shadow, but Mengdie herself was baffled by this.
(My body... so light! Like riding the wind!)
The brief surprise passed in a flash, leaving no time for thought, only for battle! Mengdie cast aside the reason for her agility, using the momentum to leap up, raising her right leg like a spinning top, aiming at the white shadow's neck! This incredible speed reappeared with her kick, forcing the usually composed white shadow to leap forward, awkwardly evading the strike.
"Brilliant girl, I really 'admire' you!"
"'Admire'? If you can handle it, why not give it a try!"
Both landed and immediately sprung up again, clashing rapidly like lightning! Mengdie used her newfound speed to circle the white shadow, attacking unpredictably. Her afterimages appeared everywhere - front, back, left, right, even in the air, launching a true "whirlwind" assault!
The two figures circled the ballroom, sometimes leaping into the air, sometimes against the walls. Ordinary people couldn't fully see their movements, seeing only flashes as they separated from and re-engaged in close combat.
The white shadow wasn't easy to deal with. Despite matching speeds, his overall ability was still superior to Mengdie's current state. He concentrated, hands moving continuously, finding Mengdie's real attacks among the blinding afterimages, blocking them cleanly.
"Little sister! Had enough? It's late, and ladies should be in bed!"
The white shadow caught Mengdie's real attack, grabbed her fist, lifted her up, and then forcefully swung her down! His great strength slammed Mengdie's petite body hard onto the dance floor, causing her to spit out blood again. But it wasn't over. He didn't let go, lifting Mengdie again, throwing her towards the ceiling! With a loud bang, Mengdie hit the ceiling and fell back down, the white shadow ready to execute the final flick!
"(Chinese) Huh... haha... so strong... so delightful——!!!"
As she fell, Mengdie suddenly opened her eyes! She quickly raised her feet, pushing off the ceiling with all her might! Riding the wind's speed, she appeared in front of the white shadow in an instant, dodging his last strike!
As soon as she landed, Mengdie swept her leg towards the white shadow's knee. He was startled, hastily lifting his leg to dodge, only to find the strike was a feint. By the time he realized, Mengdie had already grabbed the back of his head with both hands, and the next moment, she fiercely kneed him in the cheek!
