Neve resummoned Erin as the next wave arrived. Thanks to the minute-long break between battles, Neve had regained 120 mana before her next summon, which was substantial, but she was still losing mana quickly.
MP: 895/1300 (+100% regen)
[At base mana regeneration, I gain around 1 mana per second. With +100% mana regen, I get around 2 per second. If I can sit back and let Erin handle the entire wave, I can squeeze in approximately 240 mana regenerated per wave. Unfortunately, though, that still puts me at a loss, even if I don't buff Erin, which I have to. I'll still slowly bleed mana.]
What that meant was that, although Erin was going to be putting on the performance of a lifetime with these stats, Neve would inevitably have to get her hands dirty.
[It's fine,] Neve thought, looking down at her sword. [I can do this.]
Her time would not come just yet, though. For now, she still had mana, and Erin was still out in the field.
