"Risu, can you explain where they are? I can't sense any monsters near us."
In a state of alert, Flare looked around.
What Risu said that monsters surrounded them was genuinely shocking.
Flare, who was close to Risu, knew that Risu never lied. So, Flare believed Risu.
"Ah! They're coming here!"
The ground tremors instantly shook Flare, Charu, and Risu. The vigilant Flare drew an arrow, ready to shoot the enemy.
Flare was confident that the monsters coming towards her were giant monsters.
The type of monster most shunned by anyone.
Cold sweat poured down Flare's head. She alone had to overcome the giant monster while guarding Charu and Risu.
Giant monsters have physical strength beyond reason. One hit by its hand, the body would be destroyed.
Flare's head flashed. Flare would leave Charu and Risu. However, Flare immediately erased the cunning thought.
Flare was afraid of Charu. In Flare's mind, Charu was not an ordinary person. If Flare escaped, she must be prepared to accept the consequences, being hunted down and tortured by Charu's subordinates.
"You guys stay behind me! Don't move an inch! I will fight him!"
Flare then chanted an incantation.
A large circle full of strange symbols appeared around them.
Flare had created a protective magic to protect herself and Charu and Risu.
"How very unlucky I am today."
Flare muttered as she cast a spell to turn her arrows into lightning bolts.
At that moment, a group of monsters appeared. Countless numbers blocked the entire road, leaving no way to escape.
Seeing the group of monsters, Charu was terrified. Her body shook incessantly. Meanwhile, the innocent Risu waved her hand at the monsters.
Flare pulled the arrow string. Flashes of lightning appeared, striking everywhere.
Then, Flare pointed the arrow at the sky and released a flash of lightning upwards.
Instantly the sound of thunder sounded loud. Charu and Risu covered both ears.
A flash of lightning struck the group of monsters. The small monsters were immediately destroyed. Medium-sized and giant monsters were seriously injured.
Only the giant monsters could withstand the lightning strikes; Having a strong body resistance, Flare's attacks were nothing to him.
Flare didn't just release lightning once. Constantly relentless, she unleashed lightning into the sky until it consumed the rest of her power.
"I can no longer expend my power."
Flare was exhausted. The magic barrier was weakening.
The monsters were few, leaving only the giant monsters.
"You guys prepare to run. I'll hold off the rest of the monsters."
Flare warned Charu and Risu. Flare then pulled out a dagger.
"We won't leave you!"
Charu and Risu simultaneously refused Flare's order to run away.
Flare was pleased. If they had any sense, they would have left Flare alone.
However, Charu and Risu were both stupid. That made Flare troubled in the current situation.
"Flare, how dare you leave me!"
A knight suddenly came from behind them. Carrying a large hammer, the knight smiled sinisterly.
"Noel!"
