Even though the lady in front of them had her face covered with a veil, for the four girls, just taking a single look at her was enough to recognise that this lady was none other than their beloved elder sister Elena. But seeing Elena asking them for a battle, instead of a tearful reunion, all the ladies got ready with their weapons for a battle.

Even though Elena was casually standing there while resting the giant axe on her shoulder, her stance had no gaps. The four experienced adventurers tried to find a gap but were unsuccessful. So they decided to take a brute force approach as that was the only way forward.

The fast one to start attacking Elena was none other than Marina. She pointed her spear toward Elena and ran toward her in full speed, intending to pierce Elena through. Obviously she was aware that it was not going to be this easy, so actually Marina was just trying to make Elena dodge so that her other party members could start their attack.

But instead of dodging, Elena just simply swang her axe with one hand and immediately parried the spear that was coming toward her. Parrying a pointed spear with a large axe was an insane feat but Elena did just that easily.

This surprised the other girls but they didn't stay surprised for long and soon took action. After her attack was parried, Marina had lost her balance because of this sudden happening. So currently she was in danger of getting slashed to halves by Elena.

Alessia immediately came to support her and attacked Elena to keep her busy and to give Marina enough time to correct her ballance. Nina immediately started to move at a fast pace while creating shadow clones and tried to hide her real body's presence. And as for Shia, she started visualising a powerful spell.

Alessia was planning to hold Elena off for at least few seconds but she had not expected that the first blow that Elena would throw toward her would be so heavy. Currently Elena was restricting herself to be at level 299 but still, her attacks were too heavy for even a S ranker like Alessia to handle.

So with just the first attack, Alessia was pushed back and was unable to support Marina for longer. In this short amount of time, she had also not managed to correct her posture. So when Elena's axe swang toward her, Marina had no ways to dodge it.

But at that exact moment, Shia came to rescue. She launched a spell not toward Elena but toward Marina to pushed her away from the path of the axe. As soon as Elena was in a full swing posture, Nina tried to attack her from a blind spot.

But that blind spot turned out to not be a blind spot for Elena. That was because, she soon as Nina appeared before Elena while dual handling a pair of twin knives, the sight of a feet enlarged before her eyes. So even before she could realise what was happening, Nina was kicked in the face and flew backwards.

After blowing Marina away with her wind spell, Shia was getting ready to use an offensive fire spell on Elena. But after seeing how Nina was kicked away, she hastily cast an air cushion spell to safely catch her.

In the meantime, Alessia again pressed her attacks against Elena and Marina did the same after recovering her stance. With both of the front liners now pressing on, the back liners were able to get much needed time in their hands to reorganise themselves.

Nina decided to not get close to Elena for the time being and took out her bow and arrows to attack her from distance. And Shia also finally started to cast offensive spells toward Elena.

While handling both Marina and Alessia head on, Elena was also managing to handle the offensive from the two back liners. She either dodged or parried all the arrows and spells. Not only that but by hitting the spells and arrows, she was actually sending them back toward Shia and Nina. So even though Elena was quite a bit away from them and was not using any long range weapon, she was still keeping them on edge.

This back and forth continued for quite some time but soon, Elena started to get a bit serious. She was doing this basically to test how much the Azure Legion had grown. So going easy on them was not what she was going to do.

So instead of just swinging her axe, Elena also started to use weapon arts. As soon as she did that, the battle became way harder than before for the four ladies. So far, they were able to at least keep up with Elena but as soon as she started using arts, they were immediately in danger and were barely hanging on.

Alessia immediately decided that without going all out and risking her life, they all would soon be defeated. So with determination filling her eyes, Alessia went all out.

She immediately used her signature "Azure Thunderfire Slash" to create some kind of opening. Elena also counterattack with an axe art called "Mountain Cleaver". Alessia felt her hands went numb when their moves clashed but with all her determination, she held on.

Then when she was able to withstand this move from Elena, she immediately used a technique that her big sister had taught her. That was the "I am a Dreamer" move from the "Determination of a Fallen Royalty" technique.

Elena had already seen Alessia using this move so she was not surprised and calmly handled that with a slightly stronger axe art called "Heaven Severance". But what Alessia did next even surprised Elena.

After the I am a Dreamer was neutralized by Elena, Alessia used Elena's own force to empower herself and used the second move of the Determination of a Fallen Royalty -

< I Stand Tall Even When the Sky Fall >

Seeing this move, the figure of a lonely girl flashed in her mind. This move that Alessia performed was not perfect and was full of flaws. But it was very similar to the time when the lonely girl was trying to create this move. All the memories for those times came flooding to the forefront of Elena's mind.

In this moment of reminiscence, Elena stopped her movement for a slight moment. She did that as an admission of her praise for what Alessia had managed to show her and respect that Elena had for the creator of the move. Seeing that the technique of her dear friend was still alive and well, this battle was already over for Elena.

In this moment, not only Alessia's attack but the attack of all the other ladies also struck a defenseless Elena. But instead of harming her, they just managed to blow her veil away and immediately the beautiful smiling face of Elena was revealed to the world.

As soon as that happened, Elena spread her hands wide and immediately all the ladies found that their position had changed. Then Elena closed her hands and the ladies found themselves between Elena's massive bosom. She was hugging them. Immediately after realising that, all the ladies also hugged her back.

And that was how the true reunion between Elena and the girls happened.
