Based on the fact that she had appeared on horseback, she was most likely Rider. Based on her skill with a bow, however, she could just as easily be Archer. But that would mean that three different Archers had manifested in the city.
Or can she use a bow with that much force, despite not being an archer...?
Impossible, Tine thought. That would be like an archer competing with the other classes in swordsmanship.
The King of Heroes had swords like Ea and Merodach despite being Archer, but, leaving out their fearsome power, he would never attempt to match the Saber class head-on in pure swordsmanship. That, at least, was what Tine thought then.
The scene playing out before her eyes, however, defied her common sense.
"..."
The female Heroic Spirit held out her right hand beside herself, and a horse appeared there. She then lightly mounted it, and vigorously road it off up the ravine.
The cloth wrapped around her arm was still overflowing with concentrated divinity. She circulated the potent magical energy into the horse through its bridle. Horse and rider, moving as a single organism, rapidly threaded their way through the rain of gales. Massive chunks of rubble had begun to fall back to earth. She began to gallop lightly over them, eventually riding across even the boulders still in mid air.
Witnessing the female Heroic Spirit traveling backwards up the waterfall of rubble, Tine was sure.
She can only be Rider!
That would mean that a hero who naturally possessed the qualities of an archer had taken the form of Rider in this War.
