Due to the great work Maria and Amelia did in protect a caravan of merchants, the two girls were asked to aid with a marine clean up on the beach at Raque. Maria personally was excited about this assignment compared to her normal neutral stance to missions from her family. The reason why was very simple. Maria loved the beach. Now only was it perfectly fine to not wear shoes so no weird looks from other people, she would wear a swimsuit and go swimming, which by the way was great training on its own. Speaking of training, running on the beach was a great workout along with just any activity. It was just the perfect place for fun, work, and play. This did not even get to the idea of looking for shells and other things. So the idea of doing some pest control there was more then enough of a reason to go. Even if she did not get any fame or credit for her Magic Knight Exam, the girl was happy go.
Upon arriving, the girl would carrying a bag which had her non beach clothes and a towel. On her person, the girl wore a tan cloak with an emerald green two piece bathing suit which had a short transparent purple skirt. Sure they would be fighting mana beast but the girl trusted in her own magic to protect her from any true danger. Though, the girl did bring a gift from her father. A Lapiz accessory which gave her access to a restraint spell. Maybe she would not need it but it would not hurt to have to help her if any of these creatures were too fast or annoying to deal with. Plus, she always wanted to know what it was like to sling magic at her foes like other people did. If it was fun or useful maybe she could look into investing in a better set a weapons that could aid her in a further endeavor.
"Damn that's a lot of cash, I could do good things with this~" Amelia said counting the coin she made from the escort she did with Klara, although she saw money a means to an end it was still rather essential to utilize it and having more of it meant she could do more things, lately she started to think that she would love to forge her own weapons but she had no idea how, she created a glaive with her magic but it was tiring to do so and she imagine the tougher the enemies got, the harder it would be for her to manage maintaining a single spell throughout the entire fight.
But those were thoughts for another time as she restocked on her basic supplies meat, bread, water. dusted off her grimoire and arranged a horse in the saddles for her next journey, she was kept quite the busy person so she was always on the move to some place new, different, she liked that. And so she got a request from Klara to go with her on this next mission, a marine clean up at the beach, one thing she could tell was that her new friend was excited, Amelia unable to help but bend and agree to go to the beach mission. Of course Amelia wouldn't dare say it but she had not been to a beach before, she swam in rivers but a beach? She has no reason to, the forests provided more than enough.
Going to the beach came with an experience she didn't think she would walk into, getting a swimsuit, steeling herself for the first time she was getting her first actual outfit, to say the least the whole experience was Amelia acting nervous in the shop and a worker noticing her and giving her help, Amelia didn't believe in the church in quite the way Thaddeus did but bless the lord for the ladies kindness, in the end Amelia ended up getting dark brown beach shorts that had straps to attach her grimoire too, a standalone top swimming suit that was shoulder less and designed to look like a top, two laces connecting it to her neck as the shirt extended to her belly button but left her stomach mostly exposed. She asked the lady if that was okay and the lady said she looked great, and everybody would love her, she didn't know what that meant but if she looked okay that's what mattered right? right..?
So anyway she had taken her own rides to Raque to meet up with Klara, in the distance she could see her already in her bathing suit waiting for her, Amelia had paired her new swimsuit with simple black sandals she was wearing black sunglasses as well. Amelia. Instantly loved the beach. the sun heating off the water and on the sand and everything, how it felt on her skin, god she loved sunbathing. She had brought a tower, an umbrella, and some sun moisturizer.
"Hey Princess Klara~" Amelia said as she got closer to her and waving, "So I heard we been summoned to whack some crab mana beasts looking things this time, I heard there pretty tough." Amelia put up her sunglasses looking Klara in the eye, "How fast do you think it take us if we worked together to whack out all the beasts so we can enjoy the beach? This is like my actual first time, and I really want to enjoy it now that I'm here~!" Amelia ended with a smile, she wasn't afraid at all to face a tougher enemy from before, in fact she relished the opportunity to improve on her magic and martial arts, bring it on world!
Finally, the star of the show was here. The great Hero and member of the Hades Family, Amelia. A huge grinned cut across Maria's face as she briskly walked towards the girl. "My my, Looking very fashionable aren't we partner." The girl inspected the heroine closely. "Good color, contrasts nice with the skin. But more importantly, Its beach attire! And the beach is the best place for everything!" Maira clapped her hands but for rushing off to find a large rock. "Before us, stands a legion of enemies. Though they will be much stronger than the dirt we dealt with before, I still believe we are the superior." The girl pointed out to the ocean where 8 Mana beast crab like creatures carefully marched across the beach. "I think that we should charge in head first. And while I'm distracting them all-" the girl froze after seeing one quickly rush across the beach. She whistled, seeing that the creatures were surprising fast. "umm... Then again... I always heard that... dividing and conquering was something really powerful generals did Maybe we can lure a couple over here and take them out that way."
Stuff in hand as she approached Klara, she put the stuff down as she made it beside her, the latter smiling wildely as she mentioned how fashionable she looked, "Is it..too fashionable?" Amelia didn't know the lady mentioned she looked good, did she look to good? Did it show too much skin? Fuck she should have asked the lady what she meant. At least Klara mentioning the colors were nice but that didn't help much as a slight flush hit her skin but she tried to ignore it.
"Yeah the beach is fun at least." Amelia said as she looked around the beach that had been evacuated and local authorities were keeping civilians out until they cleared the area of the beach, finally from the distance she was able to observe a large oversized crab like creature from afar. Eyes narrowing on the crabs as Klara did that weird speech thing again, it was almost like she was monologuing a heroic book or something, "Yeah those shells look pretty tough, more like some type of sea cockroaches but like you said were superior and were be on top by the end of it." The crabs Amelia had been watching had been poking out of the sea but now they were starting to skitter onto the beach shore, it seemed there presences were noticed. "Looks like we won't have very much time to talk Princess~!" Amelia said with a mix of nervousness and excitement as Klara attempted to make a plan
Amelia tapping her knuckles together as her grimoire flipped through it's pages, from out the book her glaive began to poke out as Klara mentioned divide and conquer, There still all grouped up and close to the water, I'll blitz into the middle of them and activate a scent blast that will slow them all down, then blast them all at once with another spell, there be pissed at me but use that chance to divide them, "I'm counting on you, this time your going to be my hero." Amelia said as she ran straight for the first crab, at this point she speed up to 7 m/s as the first crab was followed by another seven, Amelia taking a deep breath as more nerves hit her but cleared her consciousness as she approached a meter and a half away from the creature. Fighting on the beach Amelia lowered her stance and allowed herself to slide against the sand as she ducked under the creature's belly to get passed it causing it to turn around as she pierced her glaive into the sand, twisting it with her forearm as the rose opened up and from it a large five meter Aoe burst took place.
However she wasted no time in activating her next spell, the grimoire flipping through more pages as Amelia then touched the sandy ground causing root vines to appear underneath the surface as they lashed out in another AoE fashion around her cuttings into five of the surround crabs armor, chipping it however slightly. Using that moment Amelia used an opening to dash right back out of the way, circling the crabs while looking towards Maria direction, nodding to her like a signal that it was safe to come in.
Although she completed the first step, the three crabs she didn't hurt were beginning to chase her down in a trio, Amelia whistling attracting a fourth attention as she led them a good several- nine meters away from the other four, divide and conquer right?"

Description: Amelia Grimoire opens up and she taps her knuckles together as the spell activates, from her grimoire the head of an enlarged rose emerges, continuing to come out the rose forms similar to a glaive consisting of rose thorn roots that grow and twist around each other to create a makeshift pole 7 feet long ending in a thorn that forms a 18 inch blade(45 centimeters) curved upward. Amelia's blade(s) is made of her magic and gives her or whoever holding it, a boost in power. Amelia can cause these creations to hover or shoot it towards something around her and potentially give to allies by making more than one via ammo rules.
The blade also has another effect, when first activated the spell causes the sword to release a certain type of scent blast that she can shoot up to five meters ahead in a single direction that then spreads in the area up to 5 meter AoE coming from the head of the rose. this scent causes drowsiness and slows down anyone hit by 2m/s upon being in it's range other than Amelia.

Maria was surprised to she her ally just charge into the army of crab monsters. It was a bit inspiring but the girl was a hero. So Maria would find herself tailing behind her, at least at first. Her movement would jump to 8 m/s as well allowing her to me keep up with the savior. Seeing her slide under the mobs, Maria stopped realizing the girl was about to use her magic. Backing away she slammed her fist together to summon her Amber's Strength, coating her hands and feet in Amber. Upon seeing the plant magic, Maria watched as the girl would then escape the circle of crabs and start running. Unfortunate for her, the other 3 crabs would begin chasing down the girl. That's where she would find her place in this fight.
Rushing over, she Slammed her fist into the crab monsters face before moving under it and uppercutting it's underside killing the crab creature. Then hopped on top of it and reached out and grabbed the air, with her left hand which was the arm which had her Grieving Chained Lapis, in the direction of the two other crabs which were in pursue of Amelia. Lapis chains flew out of the attaching to both crab monsters' claws and lowering their speed and stats. This would make both crabs way slower than both girls and allow Amelia to be able to maintain a healthy distance from them.
The three crabs chasing her hadn't been hit by her slow or anything and although she was fast they were still gaining on her, "Amelia run faster, RUN AMELIA!" She heard the phrase so many times in her head but what was she running to? from what? She was so tired of just running, if she was going to run she was going to run through!
Chains lashed out through the air gripping what she noticed was now two of the crabs only being dragged back, "Thanks Klara, I'll hold back the other five for as long as I can." Amelia said as she squeezed her muscles slightly tighter allowing her to put more force into every little step, her movement increasing to 11 m/s as the crabs she blasted earlier were now refocusing back on her, a few screeching at her as they began skittering, "Another helping then!"
Amelia said running into them, as she summoned a new glaive in one hand sliding to a stop eight meters away as she touched the ground again as rose thorn vines once again ripped apart the sandy floor, stopping and jettisoning out of the ground all around Amelia as the crabs surrounded her with their pincers, the rose thorns once again piercing into their shells, the damage she did the first time present on the shell made more cracks as the second puncture wound connected to the first, she was wearing down there shells one at a time but she was still going to try and knock some of the crabs out!
Dashing to one Amelia ran underneath it and bended her knees down to extend her leg in a 180 degree kick upwards launching it up the ground as she caused its shell to crack further, Amelia slid the length of the glaive back into her hand until it touched the ground and with one deep breath in and an exhale she launched the glaive curved tip forward to create a puncture like wound as she pierced through one of the crabs. Amelia leaping on the crabs impaled body and using the crabs around her as leaping stones, one crab almost grabbing her but Amelia pushed her body into itself and spun away from the crabs claw, landing back on the ground as she ran away from the four crabs.
Her partner was safe. How did she know? Well, being shouted at with gratitude was a great start. She still was containing a bulk of the enemies so Maria had to pick up her pace. Speeding towards the two crabs. She kicked one of the legs out from a crab which threw it off balance a bit. Using that brief moment, she slammed her fist into its side crushing its shell and downing the beast. "Whew, another one down." Little did the girl know, she was getting more popular. The other crab she had chain that was still standing swiped at her back, knocking the girl into the ocean.
Maria's mana skin held strong, absorbing a bulk of the attack but now she was wet and out of position. She could see her lapiz chain was still on the beast which was good. What was not good was the fact that the crab was charging towards her. He was getting slower and the chain was growing stronger with time. By now, the beast was moving slower than most normal people. So at first, she thought she had nothing to worry about. But as the creature it the water, it started to pick up speed. "Oh... no..." The girl started pushing her way out of the water which was sucking her back with the undertow. Lucky for her it only came to her waist but with each wave crashing behind her, she felt herself being lifted by the waves enough to slow down her movements. By the time she was able to make it to a safe spot, she noticed the crab monster was gone. Her chains were still active though so that meant only one thing...
Still surrounded by the four crabs Amelia was exerting more physical energy running than she her mana or anything else, but yet she still felt like she could do this forever, Again. Amelia said turning back towards the crabs as her grimoire glowed with a florescent green aura, "Osseia Combat: Wild Garden!" Amelia said as magical roots grew in the ground below them as they began to ripple forward towards the hoard of crabs, once again traveling four meters ahead and then exploded in a wide area, this time the rose thorns actually managing to pierce some of the shells of the crabs injuring all four of them but the wound was shallow, the crabs seemingly enraged with the injury as they began to struggle to get off of the new protrusions, two managing to escape but a third one still stuck, the two beginning to rush her moving at 10 m/s.
"So there not done yet but they are have a weak spot now.." Amelia said to herself as her eyes narrowed as she tried to mentally chart a course in her head. Doing so Amelia blitz forward at 14 m/s towards the crab that was still stuck, the crab throwing his pincer forward trying to crush her but Amelia took a single step back and then leapt forward leaping onto it's pincer, the crab raising it to get her off and Amelia used the peak of it's reach to bend her knees leaping into the air in a front flip as she lifted her right leg up in a 180 degree fashion like before but this time did a downward axe kick causing the crabs body to fall onto the sharp end of the rose thorn fulling impaling it to death. Amelia movement flowing into doing a roll off of it's hard shell as it tilted towards the ground but was immediately smacked towards the water where Klara was about several meters away. "Oh shit! Hang on Princess! Amelia said as she looked towards the last 4 remaining crabs, It was fucking go time!
Large claws surrounded her waist. This was fine. All she had to do was jump away. She had enough strength to do that. The only problem was that another wave crushed down over her. This picked the girl up off the ground sealing all her mobility options. Thus she was forced to get clamped in the jaws of death. The girl put all her focus into her mana skin to prevent her from being crushed but that did not take away from the gasp that would follow. If she had been underwater, then she would be going through the first stage of drowning. So she was grateful that she was above water, at least at her head. This crab mana beast however, would not be so grateful.
The crab pulled her closer to its face and ready its other claw to pinch her and lead to a tear. Maria kicked the joint of the claw that held her which force the creature to release its grip. Then the girl pulled her legs in and double stamping the face of the crab crushing its shell and killing it. It was at this point, she used that force to swim back to shore and avoid any more fighting in the water. It was at this point that she heard the hero's voice. "I'm fine... No stupid crab is going to take me down. Even in the water." She transitioned to her knees from swimming and started trying to catch her breath. "You on the other hand. Give me a minute. I'm about to be over there to kick some crab. Oh... don't let them get into the water. They move at the speed of light or something."
Looking up, she saw that there were only 3 more crab like mana beast left on the beach. They looked wore down by magic. Maybe it would take one good punch to take them out. It was not going to be fun, but she was going to enjoy being down with this. They were at the beach. They had plenty of good exercise and now she just wanted to relax with a sweet fruit drink. It was going to be so perfect.
Although she was also fighting back the immediate reply from Klara was comforting, Klara was a bit loud and outspoken but she was as strong as she was those things among being a beauty herself. Amelia still wanted to go to her but the three crabs surrounding her would most likely not let her, dodging the creatures while thinking Amelia could spot out Klara fighting back so she decided to just let her be and trust her friend as she now turned her attention to the three thorns still at her side.
The three crabs already close one attempted to slam it's pinchers shut with her in the middle, Amelia legs bending as she decided to leap up as the pincers closed shut, landing on them and quickly moving up the creature's length to leap again ontop of it's head and then off the other side of it's body spinning to face it mid-air. landing but then swiftly moving back a good several meters, as her grimoire turned a page, "Osseia Combat: Oswald Rose" Amelia said throwing the newly created gliave into the socket of one of the crabs causing it to squeal in pain as it's eye was pierced through, her magic hex effect causing a small scent blast to blow point-blank range to slow the creature and the one beside it down(-1m/s to 2 crabs), using scent blast Amlia blitzed in at 17 m/s as she pumped her arm with her muscle and uppercut the monster beside the impaled one, because she had weakened the crabs already the uppercut managed to burst through it's remaining armor as she felt her hand puncture it's already damaged flesh.
Gripping the creature's inside Amelia grunted as she flexed her muscles lifting the creature's dying corpse throwing it into the one that was charging at her, knocking it back temporary. Suddenly a claw hand from the impaled one had shut down onto her arm, "Kgu!!!" Amelia flinched at the sudden pain of it but then her eyes narrowed with a focused rage, mana casting over the glaive still in it's eye Amelia suddenly yanked out and moved it back several meters as she was trapped and then thrust it right back into the crabs eye socket except the momentum was enough to pierce straight through it's head and armor causing it to drop. Turning around to the last crab it had already rushed up on her swinging it's pincer as Amelia had just enough time to raise her arms inta a cross fashion to block the strike, the force pushing her back a meter or two in the sand before she shrugged off the creature's claw strike, Amelia clutching her fist close as she swung her fist upwards in a uppercut again and flowed into a small leap side kick sending the creature flying back a few feet. Controlling the glaive Amelia pierced it's body to make sure it was dead.
At this point Amelia would decide to take a deep breath to let it sink in as she looked around, the crabs seemed to be gone, they managed to clear them all out, that was good. The hardest challenge yet Amelia walked over to her friend Klara at a even pace, once finding her Amelia would give a small chuckle, "See, we were right after all, came out on top~" If Klara was sitting on her ass after all that Amelia would offer her friend a hand to pull her into a hug, if not she would still offer it to pull her into a hug.
"Alright, time to call the local authorities let them know the beach is open to the public until the next wave of crab appeared, and then after we can have some fun?" Leaving Klara at the beach because she knew she loved it more Amelia made her way to a communicator device not too far from the beach, telling the authorities to let the people know the wave of crabs had been appeared and the public was free to enjoy the sea. It took maybe a half an hour but the beach started seeing people returning as proper authorities clean up the remains of the dead crabs. some people were beginning to ask questions about who was responsible, Amelia dipping to go make the phone also to basically leave Klara with taking all the fame again as she watched the girl get ransacked with all types of questions about the fight.
When it was starting to dye down Amelia began walking up to Klara with a blueberry ice shaving in celebration for their victory and also her, "Sorrry for ditching you" drink, "Man, crowds sure do know how to flock to anything interesting huh?" Pointing to a small Kiosk Amelia smiled, "While you were busy the lady at the Kiosk told me we can rent a volleyball and play, so lets go have some fun now~!" After that Amelia would play with Klara until they both got tired and separated for the day.
Maria was pulling herself onto land from the heavy waters. She had nothing attacking her since she completely defeated the 3 crabs that Amelia did not catch in her initial attack and Amelia was still dealing with three crabs. They were all damaged and looked to be on their last limb. At the very least Maria was sure she could knock them all out with one good clean hit. Still, she hoped Amelia was taking them seriously. It was time to act after all. However, it was too late to assist her partner in this battle. Maria was too slow. The crabs were closing in on the girl and launching their assault. The girl was too agile though. Given her speed and the lack of water for the crabs to abuse, she was just untouchable. It was amazing but then again, she was a hero. The girl would get on top of the crab mana beast's arm and then activate a spell, creating a glaive and impaling it into the crab. The girl got physical and flexed on the beast with hand to hand combat. It was a bally move given the lack of defensive or protective magic but it worked out. Then the girl toss a crab into another one only to get her arm pinched. "Amelia!" Maria shouted pushing her heavy soaked body up to dash to the scene.
The girl was not weak though. That moment of weakness lead to a powerful counter attack which and a flurry of devastating blows send the crab to its knees... or well joints. The other crab would soon follow in the claw steps of it's friends. With its defeat, the monsters were all gone. It was at this point that Maria would dispel her Amber's Strength and prepare to use her healing magic. She opened her right hand widely in front of herself. A 20 cm jade spawned in her hand. Then the girl sent the jade over to Amelia. If the Jade would it the girl in her back before flying above her head and start radiating its healing energy. "Getting hurt was not part of the plan. But good job."
It was at this point that Amelia suddenly suddenly ran up to her and hugged her. Maria froze, but her expression would melt into a smile. "Buu... I was hoping we could get to enjoy this together before it gets crowded again." However, Amelia was already walking off probably to contact the authorities. From here, the beach quickly came to life and the crab mana beast were moved away. Maria got a lot of attention but Amelia was no where to be seen. Once again, she escape the eyes and praises of everyone. This could not keep happening though. False praise could be bad and well Amelia did kill more crabs than her anyway. So she should get more credit. That's why when the people were thanking her, Maria made sure to drop Amelia's name a bunch.
Eventually the crowds would disperse and Amelia would return with a joke and information about were to rent volleyballs. Maria wanted to talk to the girl more about this running away thing but she also kind of wanted to enjoy the beach and volleyball was a fantastic idea. This talk could happen later when they were working or doing something not at the beach on a beautiful day. "Wonderful. I am going get a juice. I do hope the have something interesting."
