True, but between what we've seen of Edea and Aria so far, it still should be vastly in Area's favor. Then again, if off didn't get retconned now it wouldn't make much sense for her to be able to fight Tasha post training at all.

Tasha says in the beginning she had an army and lost them against his master. But now it's implying she's stronger without them.

WTF

It makes sense though. Aegis is just her supporter just think of thw witch who had her butler as supporter and once she jumped in the fight the tide totally tipped to her favor. The only thing i can imagine here is that Tasha jumps into the fight throwing Aria off-balance (like jumping in the line of fire to protect his master)

The problem is that Aria has lost twice by someone taking out her Supporters. Where was this when fighting Tasha or Ryuhwan?

Maybe Edea kicks her butt so thoroughly that she gets nerfed?

[Kurohane]

Can't this flashback just hurry up already? Yeah diagrams, sure. I'll try to remember that if it's actually relevant after this.

Yeah after the last clash with Edea Aria had (I think) only two of her Aegis left. And during the first chapters Tasha with the help of Tarras and Xing was able to beat her down though only Tasha was left standing. Later on a full powered Halloween was able to give Aria a beating too though that was more likely due to her taunting of Aria and her sudden power spike due to Tasha's 'awakening'.

What i am wondering about is this: did the curse which Aria placed on Tasha break? In the flashback it is mentioned that Edea was able to stop it not break it. but when Tasha ised the song of fate Aria noticed that the curse seemed to be broken. Is the translation at this point correct?

[Kurohane]

I believe it was said it spread even more, because of that. North was happy about it because it was according to her keikaku.

[XFire]

See, now that's more how I expected the fight to go down.

[Morilinde]

And like Tasha Edea just might loose it after using the song of Moirae. At least it matches Tasha's memoriy from the start of the manga that Edea destroyed most of the Aegis. Which makes me wonder what is Aria's true power?

Chapter 179 and 180 are out. Aria's inexperience gets exploited hard and then Edea decides Aria had the right idea about murdering love rivals.

Well that was somewhat expected, Edea's unrestrained emotions run wild. And here Tasha will probably jump between them and this might give Aria the chance to kill Edea. BTW was it ever mentioned if all witches have this emotional control Edea was using? Or is that more limited to 'good' witches?

[Twi]

Most, if not all Witches, use emotion control magic to some extent because mana naturally influences the mind and their emotions. Tasha went nuts when he first transformed, and South is outright insane because she has so much mana that she can't contain it and she doesn't even know how to use spells.

But the way that Edea uses it allows her to not let her emotions cloud her judgement, while Aria uses it because its the only way she can deal with her guilt. Remember, she was on the verge of a breakdown both times she didn't have the spell, the first being when she didn't have enough mana to maintain the spell in the earlier chapters and Tasha got the beating of a lifetime from Varete. The second was when she realized her father was dead and Varete cast it on her so she could hold a conversation.

Access to mana + wild emotions = very bad things for the untrained.

[Twi]

Another update. Edea goes down easy.

[Morilinde]

While it is suprising how Edea sems to have been killed this cannot be the end. I mean right now it looks like as if Tasha is going to be taken and that does not happen. My best guess would be that Edea gets up and in one last push sends Aria and Varete packing.

[EvI]

Edea dies so easily like this...? That's quite disappointing (and sad, how she did right after finding peace and happiness over her love for Tasha).

[Twi]

New chapter is out. Varete once again espouses how Aria's weakness causes most of her problems, and Edea is still alive. Presumably long enough to save him from death.

[rena-zwei]

so there are about 4 new chapter at the moment i think the flash back arc maybe over but i think we may all so see how tashas apart of norths plan unless threr just going to cut it short and go back to tasha or the witch hunters

[Morilinde]

What a sad ending for Tasha's master. Dying in her beloved arms....

[Blueknight78]

i'm totally confuse, she not was supposed to "survive it"???, if i'm not wrong she was supposed to not died here, in some point was told which she died later and not on that moment or i'm wrong???

[Twi]

No, she dies by Aria's hands. Tasha mentioned that early in the manwha. This just elaborates the details of how it happened, namely that she chose a poor time to lower her guard and had to heal him because she lost control of herself and that meant she couldn't heal herself. Tasha would neglect to mention that though, given he was obviously smitten with her and didn't hold a grudge.
