The number of players in the cabin had risen to five.
Chaos erupted once more.
Verdant Whisper · Windrush shot BS-Rita a cold glance. Without warning, she canceled her disguise skill, pulled out the final helm fragment—
And threw it out the cabin window.
At that moment, time seemed to crawl.
Rita's eyes locked onto the flying piece. She blinked toward it instantly. A lightning web surged from her hand, spreading across the window—
Too late.
The web flickered into existence just as the helm fragment sailed past the frame.
She blinked to the outside—
Too slow.
The fragment grazed her fingertips and spun past her, past the seventh player just being thrown into the cabin.
"I want Steady Happiness!!"
The words were rushed, jumbled—like the drunken rambling of someone yelling at the stars.
Rita was bounced back by an invisible barrier. As she tumbled in midair, she aimed three casts of I Just Want to Improve So Badly at the spinning helm fragment—
Missed.
