Meeting those all too familiar malice filled eyes of a monster, I grit my teeth and continued to pour mana into the barrier, before swiftly tracing out the runes for another spell as I placed some trust inside my barrier, something that the angel must have found irritating if the way it repeatedly stabbed at the ice with short, controlled thrusts was any hint at its feelings.

With the roots and the gnarled sword slamming into the barrier over and over again, I had little time to do much else as I stood there besides cast a single spell and return to fueling the barrier, which was now covered in a regenerative bubble of water that froze over whenever a portion of the ice dome was cracked, supplementing the damage done and working alongside me to keep me safe.

As if sensing that the barrier was now being reinforced and healed by two separate forces now, the angel flapped its wings once more and leapt away, studying me from afar and clasping the hilt of its blade in both hands, stabbing it into the air and casting a new spell of its own.

Now that the angel wasn't directly on my barrier, I swiftly cast some spells of my own, freezing the ground beneath me and creating a thick layer of ice down below, before gradually expanding the barrier to encapsulate Leone as well, protecting her from the angel as I began to layer out the barriers as well, bubbling outwards and ensuring I would have some more time to do as I pleased.

Just like the angel now had the time to do what it pleased as it stabbed that sword upwards, a flash of blue mana making me frown as it ignored the stronger Nature Mana instead, going for Water Mana... though my eyes widened when I saw the small sphere of water appear above the tip of its blade, which was swirling faster and faster as the angel hovered in place, gathering its strength and gradually lowering the blade to point towards me.

Pulling the sword back, the angel flapped its wings and gently floated backwards, before the blood wings furled up and allowed the angel to dive towards my barriers as swiftly as it could, its sword pointed directly at the domes of ice around Leone and I while that sphere of water continued to swirl around as fast as it could manage.

When it got within a few feet of the barriers, the angel stabbed its sword forwards and sent that spiraling sphere of compressed water hurtling towards the ice, before pulling its blade back and stabbing forwards again, sending out another sphere.

One after another, four spheres slammed into the ice and cracked the surface, the power gained from such high rotational speeds as well as how they lined up to aid one another in shattering the ice slowly tearing away the first barrier, but when the angel pulled its blade back again and covered it in water, I grit my teeth as I watched it dive forwards once more, stabbing the ice and shattering the first barrier with ease, giving it access to the second.

Those four spheres landed on the next surface of ice too, joined by the angel as it began to stab down at the barrier with a vengeance, the water gathering at the tip of its blade dealing most of the damage here.

As I began to trace out some more runes, I felt someone grab my shoulder, almost making me jump, but when I heard the familiar voice of Leone say "Break the barriers, Kat.", I just blinked before doing as she asked, letting the runes fade away as I instead focused on the various sources of mana I had created and shattered them all, surprising the angel as the domes of ice exploded around itself, each sliver rushing towards it and peppering it with small cuts.lightsnovel

The four spheres were pulled back and rotated around the angel, blocking the ice and protecting it from further harm, but as soon as the barriers were gone, another threat emerged to the angel, one that it wasn't entirely prepared for.

Leone.

lightsΝοvel A lance of extremely condensed white flames streaked past me and collided with the chest of the angel, and before it could react, the lance exploded and turned into a cocoon of chains that snared the angel in its fiery embrace.

The water spheres bubbled and hissed at the heat, and I watched as they gradually evaporated when they tried to douse the flames of the chain prison the angel was now in, only for each to burst as a bolt of fire slammed into their sides and explode, tearing the compressed water balls apart and making the angel writhe in agony as it tried to break free from the chains, only to deal more damage to itself with its wriggling.

"[Unum]"

Another invocation rolled over the battlefield as the Goblin King frowned, its mana roping out and wrapping around the angel and pulling it back and away from us, only for its frown to deepen as Leone threw another lance, this one trailing behind a long chain that she grabbed onto and yanked on, pulling the angel back.

Janus grabbed the chain in his two jaws and aided Leone, who asked "Kat, you can go and help the others... I have this."

I stared at the True Vampire for a few moments, unused to the unwavering confidence she exuded naturally in this red skinned, horned form of hers, her crimson eyes and smoldering hair almost the same as always, just... filled with more power, and as those two crimson orbs glanced my way, I shivered and nodded, grabbing my Khopesh and rushing towards the legion of Terracotta Golems that were attack the Demons.

As I was sprinting forwards over the soft earth, I heard "[Rog Bi Olag]", the Goblin King once more speaking out an invocation that influenced the fight in ways we weren't entirely prepared for...
