The woman obviously couldn't remain ignorant of the two threats quickly approaching her. For now, the woman diverted all her attention towards the two swordsman, causing the magic circle around her to dim.
The performance of the roots and other mutated plant life causing havoc on the battle dropped by at least 50 percent!
If it was earlier then she would never have allowed this to happen. But now the situation was completely different. Now that two powerful enemies were dangerously close to her, she couldn't care about the battlefield!
If she allowed them to hit her then she would certainly die since her body was as fragile as a mortal!!
Thankfully for her, she wasn't defenseless. The large roots had already started to move towards the commander of the red hawks since she was close to them!! In fact three more large roots had risen up from the ground to take her down!
The roots were already giving her a lot of trouble. In fact, she had started to lose momentum because of them.
"Damn these stinky roots!" The commander cursed as she cut a large proportion of the root.
Sadly no matter how many times she cutted them. They always manage to find a way to strike!
As for the target in question, she didn't even bother to look at her, almost as certain that the roots would take care of her.
She averted her attention towards the other threat. Unlike the commander of the red hawks, this swordsman was charging towards her without any obstacles in his path.
This was because of the absence of any major roots!! No roots apart from some thin roots stopped his path!
Those roots couldn't even get near him since his sword aura engulfing his body also managed to cut them before they got close.
If left alone then he would probably be able to kill her within the next 10 or 15 seconds. Unfortunately, the woman had no intention of letting that happen.
She pointed one of her hands at him. Within a mere second an enormous amount of mana gathered at her palm. Her hand started to glow very brightly in a mere second.
So brightly in fact if anyone below grade: D could become blind in a second of the looked directly at the source.
"Do you think that you will defeat me with these pesky moves of yours! Then think again! You shall end up becoming my supplement!!" The woman roared.
In less than a second, a green blade extended from the tips of her fingers. Charging towards her enemy at an incredible speed!! The blade was incredibly thin but its speed even exceeded Myles's peak speed!
It went without saying that the swordsman had no time to react in the face of such a fearsome speed!
The green transparent blade struck his left chest only missing his heart by a few inches. That didn't mean that blade didn't do any harm to him! It was far from it!
The swordsman lost all of his momentum in a mere second and he coughed up a mouthful of blood!! In a less than mere second, the swordsman had gone from a hunter to a prey who was at the mercy of the hunter!!
The woman could now easily kill him with the roots! Contrary to Myles and everyone's one's expectations, she didn't command any roots to finish him off!!
However that didn't mean she didn't do anything. A second later, a blue colored energy could be seen inside the transparent green blood.
The energy was coming out from the place where the blade had stabbed him.
"Ahahahhahaaha!!!" The man let out a scream of pain as he felt something being extracted from his body.
The blue energy was moving towards the woman at an incredible speed. The blue energy entered the woman's finger.
The moment, the blue energy entered her body. Her aura grew rapidly, she seemed to be filled with vitality.
"Something is seriously wrong" Myles thought to himself as he charged towards the woman.
He diverted his attention towards the man. What he saw shocked him and the other observers!!
As for the man as the blue energy was being extracted from his body, the hairs of the man were turning white. His skin was showing clear signs of aging. Most importantly, his vitality was rapidly decreasing!!
"This!?....."
"His lifespan is being drained!" Myles shouted, his voice carrying seriousness.
He didn't have to tell anyone about this.
Since it was as clear as crystal what the woman was doing. She was extracting the life force of the swordsman and using it as a supplement for her!
By now, the swordsman hair had turned as white as snow. His body was full of wrinkles! His body had grown smaller! Bones were visible to the naked eye! Within seconds, he had gone from being a mighty warrior to a skeleton! His screams had also ceased, Myles or no one sensed any aura from her causing them to assume the worst.
"He is probably dead" Myles's thought to himself.
Just a few seconds later, his guess became a reality. Blue energy stopped flowing into the transparent blade, even the blade in question disappeared like a lie!
As for the swordsman, he along with his sword fell to the ground lifeless. This caused the morale of the soldiers of the union to fall further.
"She has killed one of our top combatants!! How can we win like this"
"Even the commander of the red hawks looks in a bad condition! I won't be surprised if she falls too"
The morale of the troops had hit rock bottom. The captain and commander of their troop were doing everything to raise their morale.
The performance of the commander of the red hawks didn't help either. She lost all her momentum. She was barely clinging onto her life while fighting against nearly 7 large roots.
Though the morale of the mages had broken through whole new heights. Since the woman not only killed the top combatants of the enemy like a fly, her aura had also grown stronger than ever.
Three new large roots had also risen up from the ground to protect her!!
"All hail Sage Hazel"
"Sage Hazel shall lead us to victory!"
The woman ignored every single word of the mages. She directed all her attention towards the battlefield. As for the commander of the red hawks?
She didn't even look at her direction, it was as if she was certain that the roots would take care of her!
"It's about time I ended this battle!" Sage Hazel declared a second later.
She clasped her two hands together and began channel mana through her body!Her aura intensified, and the five to seven magic circles around her, which had dimmed, reignited with newfound energy, returning ten times stronger than before.
Myles sensed that danger was going to befall upon them any second.
"Everyone be prepared for the worst!!" Myles said as he hastened his steps.
Just a few seconds later, each magic circle starts to spill out dozens of power balls of energy each second.
The moment they landed on the ground a powerful explosion was produced. Which were strong enough to deal serious damage to the fighters.
The closer they were towards, the more damage they dealt.
What made it even worse, these balls only dealt damage to humans and animals. As for plants?
Far from dealing damage, they strengthen them instead! If the woman wasn't taken soon, there was a high chance for them all to die!
"Things have taken a turn for the worst!" Myles thought to himself.
