The enemies were caught off guard when a soldier suddenly jumped from the mountain and appeared right behind them. They heard of magic that let humans make such jumps like that and then survive without breaking their bones, but they never saw it before.
Few soldiers were still at the bottom of the mountain, but they were a considerable number nonetheless. Not to mention, the commander was overseeing the entire battle from there, and Zaos recognized him and the mages. They were probably the ones who healed him. The big commander tried to draw his long spear when Zaos dashed toward, and the mages also tried to cast their spells, but in the end, Zaos cut them in half before they could do anything.
