Fighting a single opponent with two people isn't always as simple as it sounds.
Add a third, and it can get even more complicated. Sometimes, three attackers against one target only create chaos.
And that was the exact situation a certain trio of teenagers faced now.
In a battle like this, they had to worry about more than just striking. Coordination mattered. Synergy mattered.
Even the risk of obstructing/getting in each other's way mattered.
For two people, their combined power could ideally add up to 1 + 1 = 2.
But if their synergy was off, it could just as easily become 1 + 1 = 0.5. And with three? It could be 1 + 1 + 1 = 3… or just = 1.
Artemisia, Evan, and Beatrix—three teenagers facing a single opponent.
If you rated their coordination and synergy, they barely scraped by with a 10%.
The reason for this was simple: they barely knew each other, much less understood each other's abilities, powers, or fighting styles.
