As our first attack connected with the devil's, a wave of energy surged from his body and pushed us away before launching himself at Valentina, who stood frozen with her sword on guard.
Her face showed fear, but her body stood tall, and her chin held high against the devil, slicing the air before her as she tried to hit the shadowy entity, but it was to no avail as Armaros appeared behind her.
"Another knight for my collection," he said with an evil grin that reached his ears.
Melina and I both tried casting a spell, but the chances that it would hit the commander were too high, and just as his energy began to seep into her body to possess her, someone appeared behind Armaros himself.
"Quite a sloppy job for a devil…" said Vespera as she used her spider legs to slap the devil away from Valentina into a wall.
