"Damn it! What the fuck is going on?!"
A girl's furious voice echoed through the dense, eerie woods as she unleashed another wave of holy attacks at the relentless creatures surrounding her.
Three-eyed, fire-coated wolves with razor-sharp fangs snarled and lunged at her. Infernal Hounds.
"Holy Strike!"
"Purging Flames!"
"Retribution Wave!"
Golden light erupted with each spell, but no matter how many she struck down, more kept appearing.
The girl—Saintess Eveline—gritted her teeth as she gracefully dodged their attacks, her body glowing with divine energy. [Holy Step], [Light Shield]—she weaved between the beasts, striking with divine precision.
But her movements were growing sluggish.
"Why hasn't Althea found me yet? My mana is running out."
She exhaled heavily, trying to create distance between herself and the relentless monsters.
"Huff… huff…"
