Having prepared for a breach in advance by freezing the ground, Aito had an easier time dealing with hobs coming from the gap in the double door.
Hobs slipped upon touching the ground, turning them into easy targets ready for the picking. But more and more died. Their corpses progressively covered the frozen marble floor, serving as a bridge of sorts for new hobs to cross. The frozen floor was no longer a viable defense.
Moreover, he had attracted the attention of the whole hob army, turning him into the #1 public enemy.
Hacking left, right, front, and behind, Aito was attacked on all sides. The activation of the Suicidal Horn had brought relief to the other challengers but placed a heavy burden on his shoulders.
Hobgoblins pouring out windows went for Aito, rushing at him like he was the most delicious treat in the Tower.
