The cavern quaked under the force of the battle, the clash of weapons and monstrous roars echoing like thunder in a storm. Damien's golden flames burned through the darkness, but the horde remained relentless. Anna's lightning arced through the air, tearing apart beasts with each strike, but exhaustion crept into her limbs.
Dan, locked in his duel against the two colossal low-class Commander-level beasts, had no time to aid them.
It seemed this senior was quite extraordinary. Fighting two beasts at the same time at the fourth rank was not a feat everyone could achieve.
His blade sang with every precise strike, but his opponents were durable, regenerating from wounds that would have felled lesser creatures. He gritted his teeth, his body moving instinctually, dodging razor-sharp claws and bone-crushing jaws.
Damien barely had time to register Dan's struggle as another wave of monstrosities crashed against them.
