Although the attack of the True Devil Lava Giant came out of nowhere, Liora was far from being caught by surprise.
Having sensed its existence long ago, she had already prepared herself in case of emergencies.
Facing the descending lava, her eyes flickered.
Her instinctive reaction was to face the blow head-on and rely on the Myriad Devils Body's powerful defense to survive.
However, after shooting a glance at the Slave Lord, she restrained that impulse.
Grabbing Alpha by the shoulder, she pulled her backwards as the edges of her vision blurred.
Her movements were extremely quick, as if she were bending time itself.
In the short time it took for the lava to reach her location, she had already disappeared.
Both her and Alpha's figures turned into mere afterimages, reappearing behind the clueless Slave Lord a split second later.
The next moment, the scorching lava fell down as if the dam containing it had burst.
