There was a rising tension between Nathan and Noelle. As someone who was a knight, she was well-versed in a head-on confrontation. Meanwhile, Nathan knew he had to outsmart her somehow in this type of fight.
"…" She didn't understand what Nathan said earlier, but there was nothing left to discuss in this battle.
"Avoid it!" Fenrir shouted.
Nathan and Fenrir leaped to the left while Anubis went in the opposite direction as Noelle swung her blade downward, releasing a sword strike that separated those three.
Since Anubis was alone, Noelle immediately charged toward him.
"Grrr!" Fenrir gnashed his teeth, ready to help Anubis. To his surprise, Nathan stopped him by saying, "Fenrir. I'm sorry, but I have a ridiculous request."
Fenrir was slightly startled by the request, but he realized that was their only way to defeat Noelle in this state.
