Right as Freja finished speaking, blood pools manifested around us. Blood spikes then shot out of these small pools towards us, aiming for each of our throats. However, everyone was already prepared, successfully dodging the spikes except for Luna. Himeko had been standing next to her, so she pulled out her greatsword to block the spike while dodging the one aimed at herself.
Everyone else drew their weapons as negotiations had failed and now it was onto plan B.
"Tch." Freja clearly wasn't impressed that she hit no one with that attack, but we were no longer as weak as we were before. If it were us 8 months ago, I doubt we could have dodged something like that.
"You will be fighting me!" Knowing that everyone is in danger, I needed to grab Freja's attention before she picked anyone off.
