While fighting, she only used her fire energy but still had to pay attention to her light magic. She would argue that she used her light more than her fire magic. She was currently using her light energy to make her faster. Light magic is really useful to be used like this. She had her feet covered in light magic to run when she wanted to.
She began killing every monster she could find that was still not back in the camp. She had to get used to her new powers and know how to use them. All the human captives in the camp were also different types of monsters.
The new monster was bigger and looked much stronger than the others. She wanted to use her magic to see if she could beat that monster, but now she concluded she couldn't beat him with her power.
'What should I do?
I can't beat that monster with how I am now. I am too weak, even after learning magic.
I should retreat now and get stronger to beat him; otherwise, it will be catastrophic and painful if I go now.'
Iliane decided to retreat and gather more strength before returning with more strength to beat these monsters, but just as she was about to go, she felt movements and the edge of her detection field. The figures weren't focused on her, so she decided to see what was happening. She climbed on one of the houses and stood on its destroyed roof.
There, she saw a group of women clothed in the same uniform running towards the camp. Those women are all faster than me were her thoughts when she saw those women in action. She noticed that those women had weapons. Some had swords, and some had spears. Even one had a magic wand and a dagger in her other hand.
The group of women quickly closed down on the camp and began to get their weapons ready. Iliane, who was curious about the woman, stayed to watch them. She heard a voice calling to her before she could see the woman fight the monsters.
"Pretty impressive, right?"
Iliane turned around and saw another woman standing there. This one was in a slightly different uniform, but you could still make out that she was from the same team as the others. The woman walked closer towards Iliane and sat down next to her.
Iliane was scared out of her wits and didn't know what to do. This was her first time in this situation, and she could feel she couldn't beat this woman before her with her magic.
"My name is Charlotte, and I am one of the priestesses of the god of sex. You should be the saintess of the goddess of light, right? We were informed about you earlier."
"That's right, but how do you know that?"
"The gods in this world communicate with each other, and it helps a lot that the goddess of light and the god of sex are husband and wife.
Anyway, we are here to help you and offer reinforcement. We were also ordered to bring you to one of our bases to start your training.
So spectate this fight because when you're done with your basic training, you should be able to do what these women here will do."
Just when she finished talking, almost on command, the women near the monsters sprang into action. Some brandished their swords, and others held their spears at the ready while running at the monsters. The last line of the women was a magician and a bow user, and they covered the whole battlefield.
The women closest to the monsters began to start their techniques. Some swords and spears now had fire on them or even lightning. Others were manipulating the ground itself to give themselves a boost. When the clash began, it was obvious that the monsters didn't stand a chance against these women.
The goblin leader in the camp also quickly realized this and began to move and assist his underlings. Sitting next to Iliane, Charlotte abruptly stood up when she saw the leader walking towards her troops.
"See you later. I have to finish this big guy first."
And then she just jumped. She jumped high, and with the wind boosting her forward, she was at the targeted location in no time. Charlotte landed between the leader and her troops but with enough distance to not hinder them.
Charlotte looked at the leader and gave him a seductive smile.
"Come and get me, big boy."
Charlotte was daring the beast to come and fight her, but the beast, who was practically a desire walking, was quickly not able to make a good decision anymore. His thoughts were clouded, and only lust could be seen from his eyes. Charlotte smiled when she saw that her spell had worked. She had just used one of the most basic charm spells given to priestesses.
While it was the most basic, his standards for his own cult were ridiculously high. So even though it was the most basic, it could affect people until tier five, and someone at tier one could use the charm spell. The beast whose mind was clouded quickly transformed into the beast he is.
He went back to standing on four legs and was walking in an animalistic way. Even the sounds he was making sounded animalistic. He charged at Charlotte and wanted to vent his desires on her body, but unluckily for him, that was an unwise decision.
Charlotte also used a sword as a weapon and pulled it out of her inventory. She used one of her strongest techniques.
"Ninefold slash"
She pulled the sword out of the sheath and slashed at the leader before her. The sword's light blinded the naked eye, and some couldn't even see it. The sword slashes were so fast that reality had to set in for a moment. When it finally did, the monster's arms and legs were cut off, and he was rolling around on the ground in pain.
The women quickly ended the fight and began escorting Iliane back to their base. They left two women there to help the people in the cave and asked if they also wanted to move to the camp.
