Her attack did manage to disable the windshield but her hands and a part of her arms got many cut wounds from the air but the visual eye does not see it as her arms are covered in blood because of it. Loyde takes the opportunity to cast many plum-sized fireballs at him. Seeing this Annette runs out of the way so as not to be caught in the crossfire. She also sends her swords back as her hands are too wounded to be able to hold them steadily. The duke responds by using water magic to block them but he was not able to cast it fast enough so a few still hit him. One on his left shoulder, one on his right arm, and the last one on his right knee which is making him stumble. Annette takes this opportunity the kick him on his back and stomps on his head once he is down on the ground. smashing his face to the floor. She uses her weight to make him stay on the ground while Loyd walks over to him and uses a sleeping spell.
"Are your arms alright?" Loyd asks worryingly. " Nothing I can't handle, but have used up all my magic," Annette answers indifferently. "You... course you would have no magic left after using it recklessly left and right. No matter how much mana you have you still have to beware of your consumption. You could have died, not to mention that you forcefully cut open a windshield with your bare hands." Loyd nags at her. " I used my swords, not my hands beside it was the most effective course of action." She answers seriously. "You... never mind come here and let me heal you." Loyd sighs and puts out his hand. " No need, take care of the phoenix first it is dying," she answers. He wants to try to convince her but decides against it, they are not close so he has no say in her decisions. Besides, there are many people who feel uncomfortable having a stranger cast healing magic on them since they might purposely not heal everything so that there will be irreversible side effects afterward that no healing magic can heal.
Besides, the phoenix is in a more critical state, as phoenixes are legally protected one can get a fine if you don't try to save it if it is near death. And if you use healing magic to heal it even though it is too late it can use the magic to be reborn into a chick or a young adult bird depending on how much magic you pour in. You also need a license to own one as a pet or as a contractual beast. Experimenting on one as they did is almost as bad as a crime as treason. Thus he walks over to heal it. and he uses almost all of the rest of his mana to heal it. Unfortunately, it is too late so he only manages to let it be reborn as a baby bird. It is asleep and it will probably take a few days for it to recover so he puts it in his pouch and use air magic to carry the duke out. Now the only thing left to do is to meet up with the grand duke and hand over the evidence and suspects.
