The sudden arrival of another group behind the ones that fought was a devastating blow for Alex's group. As soon as they appeared, the battle that was only starting suddenly became far more chaotic and attacks began flying in every direction.
Alex turned toward the few people that remained, of which a young girl whispered something into the ear of the woman in a light green robe who stared at Alex.
She had already noticed him as he was the only one who had survived their sudden attacks, but the words she heard next did much more to grab her attention.
"They put you up to fight me?" the woman asked, stepping forward. "Nobody interferes. I'll take care of him myself," she said.
Alex looked at her and took a step back, creating some distance. His eyes moved to the young girl who had spoken to the woman. His eyes flashed purple and he saw the lingering aura near the woman.
