[sup]Arcadia's Outer Rim ⚜ Engaging Bonesword[/sup][/color][/b][/h3][/center]
[color=crimson]"Well, well,"[/color] Victoire said, before finishing her cup of tea, gazing at Bonesword with one eye closed, with a haughty smirk gracing her soft features. [color=crimson]"If it's not the single being on this whole battlefield which I should be the weakest against,"[/color] the young demon-vampire hybrid said, crossing her legs and resting her hands over her lap.

[color=crimson]"I suppose that offering a deal isn't totally out of the realm of possibilities, right? Otherwise, you would be using that horrendous thing to 'smite' me already,"[/color] Victoire said, glancing at the blade the skeletal swordsman obtained from Hohenheim. [color=crimson]"Are you interested in my beautiful children? Someone who knows the power of the natural world sure can appreciate a work of art as beautiful as a garden of Demon Roses in full bloom,"[/color] Victoire said, making use of a much less valued, yet deadly skill of her double heritage, the fact that both vampires and succubus are beings who thrive on deceit.

[color=crimson]"You'll never be able to control them without my 'blessing'. However,"[/color] the vampire extended an open palm to Bonesword, where there was nothing before, now she had a handful of ruby-like rose hips, enough to cover an area as big as Alt-Signia, at the very least. [color=crimson]"If you are willing to bargain, I would be more than glad to share the beauty of my roses with the world."[/color] Naturally, Victoire wasn't going to let this bargain be her only gambit. If Bonesword or his minions tried to attack her, the vampire girl was ready to use shapeshifting powers to turn into a swarm of shadow bats and evade any physical damage, at the cost of an even increased weakness to light and holy magics, while also blinding them with a mass of living darkness. Having a plan B is never too much, after all.

[center][h3][b][color=dodgerblue][u]     Ni-Mu, the 2201st Prototype     [/u]
[sup]Arcadia's Main Isles ⚔ Engaging Hildr & Cydone[/sup][/color][/b][/h3][/center]
[color=dodgerblue]"Now!"[/color] Despite Cydone's attempt to block it, [i]Raison d'Être[/i]'s ability to slice and dice through the very space made so that Ni-Mu second attack wasn't wasted like the first, hitting Zeruel at the same time as the Mecha Maid's TLS beams and half of the firepower of the rest of the battlefield. It was a convergent attack like no other Ni-Mu had recorded on her database, yet the Gigantic Angel survived.

Sadly, Ni-Mu couldn't concentrate on finishing Zeruel for good at the moment, not with another Angel throwing a literal island at her and a second one coming in, dive-kicking, like a comet of destruction. [color=dodgerblue]"Mecha Maids, that was a good attack. If you can, try to finish the Laguna, a Demon seem to have gone after him as well. Beware, he's an user of Silver Eyes,"[/color] Ni-Mu sent a text message directly to Hibiki and Shizuka's HUDs, given that she had only a fraction of a second to dodge and communicate her intentions. Likewise, Ni-Mu sent the following message to the rest of the Machina who could receive it, [color=dodgerblue]"Engaging two Angel targets, if possible send firing support."[/color]

Having complete the first battle protocol of informing her allies about her status in mere milliseconds, Ni-Mu used the rest of the time she had to dodge— somersaulting half an island— making sure that either Hildr would be on the path of Cydone's charge, or that the Elder Valkyrie would miss fall through the fragments left behind by the island vs island collision. Taking another fraction of a second to analyze the properties and composition of Cydone's blade as he pierced through, Ni-Mu stored the weapon's information on her database, before producing a of nearly identical copy of it, in and attempt to block an unstoppable force with another.
