"Let's act together!" Vicente called to Rory, drawing his friend nearer.
Layla dashed through the area, her feet and hands shimmering with mana, vigilant for fire-powered magical creatures already attacking their group.
Sarah joined her, while Onyx cast his aura of darkness over the Ifrit.
Vicente and Rory were the dominant warriors in this battle. As they were about to soar over the magma lake, the two merged their powers, just as they had against the 3rd-stage vampire in Saltstar City.
The mana in the area transformed under the influence of Vicente's third pentagram and Rory's second pentagram, causing black clouds to form rapidly in the sky, accompanied by bursts of lightning.
Strong winds whipped up as the flames from Rory's Fire Avatar intensified the storm's condensation resulting from their combined powers.
