"..... From what we know, they have already infiltrated the human domain and now that they have gotten stronger, they will attack before the humans got stronger." Legolin said.
'A war!' In delight, I clenched my hand beneath the table.
"Demons living in the human domain is a well-known fact, but to think they were preparing for a war is a bit unexpected." I sighed but jumped in joy, inwardly.
'Ha, hahahahaha!! Control that sh*t, I should not be overjoyed at the news of a war... at least on the outside!'
"Thank you, Legolin, and regarding the alliance, we will gladly accept.... but I believe you should discuss it further with those who were present in the human-dwarf allian-" I was about to say something, but.....
BOOM (6x)
The switch academy behind us suddenly imploded six times simultaneously, debris and a thick cloud of grey smoke shot out of the entrance hallway, killing two rank-A's who were standing guard.
Because of the force with which the debris flew out, their heads exploded, and many of the people in the conference would have died if Quinn hadn't used barrier magic to shield them.
WHOOSH
Quinn used magic to cast a barrier and created a giant transparent blue thin wall in front of us to protect the people. Some debris that flew into the sky crashed down with the force of a mini meteor shower, killing the people Quinn tried to protect.
I did nothing but stare as the phenomenon unfolded, blood splattering everywhere and covered the cameras in blood.
'Cameras!' I remembered that I was standing in front of the cameras that were broadcasting us live and acted like I was panicked.
'Poor planning and poor execution, I wonder if they rushed it.' I thought while pacing around.
"Huu..." I exhaled and took a deep breath to appear to be calming myself down, then used magic to create a barrier above our heads to protect ourselves and the 'people' from the debris shower but it was small and couldn't cover everything, which was intended.
"Legolin! Infuse magic into the barrier, I'll go rescue those who are still alive!" I yelled at Legolin who was standing in guard innocently.
"Quinn! Use 'mana armour'!" I snarled at his stupidity and took a step forward.
'Blink' I muttered in my head.
[Skill: Space manipulation activated.]
Everything around me came to a halt and turned black and white, I dashed at the one who appeared to be alive, it took exactly 2 seconds to dodge the debris that was still falling and to check my way in and out, I stood in front of the man, blinked my eyes, and the world came back to life, took colour, and time began to move once more.
"Huh? What the f-" he said as he noticed me but I stopped him by glaring at him.
"Shut it if you don't want to die." I carried him like a princess.
'Blink.' I muttered in my head, and the same thing repeated itself as I dashed back to the stage and blinked my eyes again to stop the skill.
"Huh?!!" Legolin looked at me in disbelief.
'what's wrong with hi- Oh! Right, he should have seen me next to him just now....'
'I sometimes forget the effects of own skill by not using it for long, haaa...' I inwardly sighed and shook my head.
'Blink' is a skill I learned to imitate while messing around with the space manipulation skill of my [Trait: Creator's Domain], its effects are that it helps me move anywhere covering a distance of 10 metres and the time I take to reach the distance while under the effects of the skill is taken away from me.
I attempted to imitate it as I had seen in web toons and read in web novels, but the process of why it takes time away from the user remained a mystery until I tried it myself.
'I thought it was a mini teleportation spell but this is just bullsh*t!'
Mana is consumed to open and close the split created between time and space; nothing is drained except mana while in the space split. Only the amount of time, I take to move to the location I want, is drained from me. I attempted to move a longer distance, but the mental and physical strain was too much, and mana consumption was too high, so I experimented and discovered the distance I could cover without strain, and settled on 10 metres.
"It's magic spell I created, it's called 'Blink'." I said to Legolin and winked at him with a smirk. Again, everything halted around me.
"......." I tried to speak but no sound came out.
'Right, I can't speak too.....'
'Hehe, see what I did there, I used blink with a wink!! Hehehe' I inwardly laughed at my own joke and sighed.
'What's wrong with me!!?' I shook my head and dashed to rescue the others.

"That's the last one?" Legolin asked me while Quinn healed the injured.
"Yeah." I sighed and shook my head with a depressed face.
'F**king retard's, can't even save themselves.' I turned to face Quinn, who had kneeled down to heal the recused and walked towards him while stomping my foot in frustration.
".... Ai, old geezer!" I tapped on Quinn's shoulder, he looked up at my face with a smile.
'Don't you dare smile at me! F**king..... I always ask him to put himself first and not to trust people so easily but, no, my words always fall on deaf ears!!' I took a deep breath.
"... What the hell were you thinking while protecting others and not even trying to protect yourself? Huh?" I yelled at Quinn in outrage.
ραпdα Йᴏνê|(сòm) "Right, I forgot to, in the heat of the moment you know?" he said with a smile.
"'heat of the moment' my a*s!" I snarled at him.
"You could have f**king died!! Mana armour is one of the simplest spell of yours and you forgot that? You 'forgot'??? Really?" I furrowed my brows at him in irritation.
"Alright! Don't nag me now, I'll listen to what you have say later." He raised his hands in surrender and went back to concentrating on healing.
"WTF!?" I cursed out loud and stared at him disbelief.
