Shaman was a little hesitant on using this skill but due to her not being far from being able to use it more regularly, she should not suffer the consequences like she did at a lower tier.
'Alright here goes nothing.' Shaman faced the pillar of fire that was aimed straight at her and gripped her sword tightly.
'[Blade of Flamesicon]' Shaman activated the skill and the fire bursted out of the sword, Shaman had also made Kotetsu affinity to fire which amplified the flames.
Blazing flames began to fly out violently and Shaman could feel this time that her mana branches were not being burnt unlike last time. Himeko observed what Shaman was doing and was really impressed as she could sense the use of wind and fire to create the skill.
'It looks like a very powerful skill but it seems like it is still a little too much for her to handle but It also seems like she can almost use it but just isn't quite there yet .' Himeko was able to tell that Shaman's mana core was working overtime and realized that the skill was still just too advanced for her.
The skill was fully activated and Shaman's white hair began to turn slightly orange. Shaman lifted Kotetsu above her head and slashed down at the pillar of fire that was close to hitting her.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom A slash of fire was sent out colliding with the pillar stopping it within its tracks, with the attack successfully being halted Shaman could feel that her consciousness was fading.
'Dammit, I still can't use it freely yet.' Shaman was a little disappointed but was nonetheless happy that she was able to use it without ruining her body but just at the cost of her consciousness.
As Shaman's eyes began to close she could see that the blade was starting to weaken till eventually it was absorbed by the fire powering it even further.
'Sh-." Shaman could no longer stay awake and fell to the floor.
But before Shaman could hit the ground Himeko caught her and quickly moved her out of the way of the fire pillar.
"You did really well sweetie." Himeko smiled and patted Shaman's head as she was really proud of the girls and Wolfy with how they handled the situation.
'They still need to be put under a lot of pressure and make mistakes so their fighting sense is fine tuned otherwise when push comes to shove the hesitation they might have could kill them.' Himeko had noticed many times during the fight that they either hestatied about using a skill or were unsure about their own abilities which could cost them their life.
'Oh well, it comes with time and I just need to beat them over and over again till they finally get it.' Himeko had walked over to where Wolfy and Elysia were and layed Shaman down next to them.
'If I am going to put them in danger I should throw them in the dungeon unexpectedly so that way we can see how well they do.' Himeko had a devilish smile as the idea of putting them in the dungeon before they woke up was a great way to put them under pressure.
'Of course I will watch over them but if I tell them that they might not take it seriously so I better get to work before they wake up.' Himeko had used her fire to teleport them all away and began to make her way to the dungeon.

'Ahhhh shit, memory time again.' Shaman had found herself once again in her mind space that the system gave to her.
'This feeling never gets old and it seems like my negligence of checking these memories are catching up to me since I keep forgetting to see what has been unveiled.' Despite wanting to find out more about the past, Shaman completely neglects the fact that memories are slowly given to her as her INT stat rises.
After being in her own thoughts for a while something began to happen as the black wavy scenery began to change into a bedroom.
'It seems like this is my own room for when I was at the palace.' Shaman could only assume that this was her room. The room itself was very normal and was bland, Shaman felt a little sad as the room was just marble and a window looking out to a small garden.
'This girl really needs to decorate her room.' Shaman could not help but critique the other 'Shaman.'
Finally she lost control of her movements and began to move on her own.
'I hate this feeling of not being incontrol.' Shaman was once again stuck with the feeling of being in someone's head but unable to move which was rather uncomfortable for her.
'I hope this one does not last long.'
'Shaman' began to move and when she looked in the mirror that was in the corner of the room Shaman was able to get a good look at what age she would have been.
'It looks like I am about 14 years old at the time but it's hard to tell.' Shaman examined herself and could tell that this was a much younger 'Shaman' but could see that she had started to mature a bit.
Before Shaman could look anymore 'Shaman' Started to move again and walked out of the room. It was the same hallway from when she saw the memories of 'Shaman' when she was a kid. The walls, floor and roof were all marble with the walls being decorated with ornaments, vases and paintings but to Shaman's surprise it seemed like things were incomplete.
'It seems like I don't have a fully detailed memory and only what 'Shaman' would remember.' Shaman half expected the memories to not all be in detail and have some aspects missing.
'Shaman' continued to walk down the hallway and when she reached the same massive door which was completely made of wood she had stopped and listened out for a moment.
"So when are we going to see Freya?" An unfamiliar voice could be heard in the room.
"We will soon but it seems like I have a little guest that wants to come in."
"I shall wait for you in the usual spot then Cecilia."
'Shaman' knew she had been found and quickly opened the door to find out who it was but when she did all she could see was a little flame fizzling out next to her mother.
Cecilia had beautiful pure white hair with a massive Fox tail, it could also be seen that she was wearing a blue kimono of sorts which made her look elegant. Shaman was a little dazzled by her looks and was glad she inherited those genes.
"Who was that?" 'Shaman' pouted as she just missed who the mysterious woman was.
"Just a best friend dear, so anyway what brings you here sweetie." Cecilia seemed to have avoided the question.
"Why won't you tell me and also when is Stein going to be here?" 'Shaman' did not give up on wanting to know who the woman was.
"First, I don't tell you because it is important that as little people see you and know of you and secondly he is already here you just need to look more closely."
"Wh-." Before 'Shaman could finish what she was saying she was suddenly picked up from behind.
"Well if it isn't Shaman, you have to be careful of your surroundings otherwise you may get swept up like you just did." A man wearing a black suit with brown hair, hazel eyes and a fox tail had picked up Shaman. He also had a rather slim body and was tall, despite him looking weak he picked up Shaman with ease.
Cecilia smiled and waved at her daughter before being taken away.
"Goddammit!" Shaman screamed out as who presumed to be Stein walked out of the room with Shaman in hand.
'He looks like the guy that trained me how to use a sword and that woman who was talking with my mother was Himeko but why was my mother trying to hide my existence.' Shaman was rather confused by this as it did not make sense as to why she had to be hidden by everyone.
'Was there some sort of incident or something.' Despite getting an answer why she never recognized Himeko she was still left with more questions.
'Maybe I should go for these memory dives more often.' Shaman was coming to realize how important these memories were.
'I did get the name of the shadow moon Wolf leader as it seems like the place to find her is named after her.' Shaman had obtained more information about the Freya forest and who she will be looking for.
'Oh? It looks like this is the end.' Shaman could feel that the memory was ending as she began to gain control of her body.
Shaman began to slowly open her eyes and could hear the sound of fighting. The sound of arrows could be heard flying through the air and the sound of bones being crushed was echoing alongside it.
Shaman quickly shot up and found herself looking at Elysia and Wolfy who were fighting off a horde of skeletons.
"What?" Shaman was still wondering if she was dreaming till Elysia yelled.
"Holy fuck, you are awake finally, hurry up and help us kill these fucking skeletons!!"
