Priscilla battles the infected Dauf.
In his infected state, Dauf might actually be a little smarter than his normal self as he managed to fake Priscilla out with the fake punch transitioned into a spike shower.
Summary:
With Priscilla is busy with Dauf, Helen (carrying Clare) and Deneve head for Luciela/Raphaela. Deneve realizes that Priscilla will eventually come after them again, and the only thing that may be able to stop Priscilla is Luciela/Raphaela. Priscilla notices that Deneve and Helen are running off, but Dauf doesn't allow her to give chase. Priscilla destroys Dauf's remaining arm, but Dauf quickly regenerates both of his arms which now have jaws instead of hands. Dauf peppers Priscilla with a shower of small spikes from one of his arms. Priscilla flies up, but she is forced to block a flying rod from Dauf, and Dauf catches Priscilla with his left which destroys a large portion Priscilla's body. Priscilla quickly regenerates but she remembers that she had this feeling of pain and breaking apart a long time ago. While allowing Dauf to pound on herself, Priscilla tries to remember her forgotten memories. She remembers holding a sword and standing over a beheaded body, but she doesn't remember who was the beheaded person. Suddenly, Priscilla remembers and she quickly destroys both of Dauf's arms. Having recovered her memories, Priscilla quickly finishes off Dauf and she is happy that she now has the opportunity to kill "that person" once again.
On to the next fight.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Looks like we are finally heading towards a showdown between Priscilla and Luciela Raphaela. Good job to Deneve yet again for thinking up the plan to lead Priscilla towards Luciela/Priscilla, but then again it's the only real option they have of escaping from Priscilla. Dauf put up a valiant effort against Priscilla, but no one is expecting him to actually stop Priscilla. At least Dauf managed to buy some time for Deneve and Helen to get a head start. In a somewhat related matter, Riful's body is still lying around somewhere on the battlefield since Helen nor Deneve picked her up (not that they really have a reason to). I wonder if Riful will ever come back or is she dead for good.
The biggest development in this chapter was Priscilla regaining her memories. It was explicitly stated in the manga, but given all the clues, the memory is probably of the battle between Priscilla and Teresa. The beheaded body and Priscilla's statement of "killing that person once again" more or less confirms it. I'd be really surprised if Priscilla wasn't thinking of Teresa. Priscilla is definitely coming after Clare now given Clare has Teresa's flesh and scent. The real battle between Priscilla and Clare will happen eventually, but for now I'm hoping for an epic showdown between Priscilla and Luciela/Raphaela.
