Seeing the other summoner getting isolated in that blood barrier made his heart sink. Fenrir getting stronger was simply outside their calculation.
"It doesn't matter. We will still be able to win if we can just hold on." The summoner shouted while waving his hand down, ordering his familiars to charge forward. As soon as the other summoned defeated that vampire, they could definitely defeat Nathan.
The minotaur and the gargoyle charged forward while the fallen angel prepared his spell. The summoner stood still so as to assess the situation.
"Sasha." Nathan shouted while pointing at the gargoyle.
Sasha nodded and immediately struck the gargoyle with her claws. The latter did the same as both of them ended up getting locked in a battle.
The minotaur positioned himself in front of Fenrir, while the fallen angel summoned yet another black hole.
The tentacles grasped Nathan's wrists and ankles, not allowing to escape again.
"!!!" Fenrir glanced at Nathan. As soon as he noticed there was no shred of distress in his expression, Fenrir continued.
It was at that time he heard Nathan's voice, commanding not him but the wind.
"Obey me. Blast that freaking minotaur!"
"!!!" Both allies and enemies widened their eyes as the wind started to flow toward the minotaur. They were concentrated in a single spot, similar to the explosive bullet but filled with compressed wind.
The minotaur changed his stance to destroy this compressed wind, but it was too late. The wind burst, producing a force that launched the minotaur 30 meters (98 feet) away.
"Gooo!" The minotaur let out a growl, but it was struggling to get up because it also got struck by Fenrir earlier.
A grin appeared on Fenrir's face as he went straight to the summoner.
The fallen angel flew toward his master in order to save him. This was a perfect chance for Nathan to attack, but Nathan was clutching his heart while gnashing his teeth.
"Haa... ha..." Nathan glanced at the blood field while thinking, 'To think the burden for using an element is this heavy... I can kind of understand the reason they're waiting for us to reach the second year before attempting such a thing. It's not just a matter of complexity. The summoners basically need an enormous amount of Ena to do so, which is only possible once they reach the second year.
'I have expected it to be draining, but it's not at this level. I thought I would be able to give four or five orders before running out of Ena... I guess I have to be careful when using it in the future.
'As much as I want to continue fighting, it seems that I can only watch.'
Fenrir turned to Nathan, wondering if he had any other plan for the second summoner.
"Risa! We are done!" Nathan shouted as loud as possible.
His words reached Risa as the latter released her Blood Field, revealing her current situation.
She was covered in injuries, mostly from the centaurs and the summoner. There were two arrows planted on her right arm and left leg.
Fortunately, she was more vigilant to the arachne, avoiding the situation where she would fall like Selena.
In that instant, Nathan assigned them with their own role. "Sasha, take down the arachne, Fenrir, stop the centaur and the summoner, and Risa, you go for the elf. Don't let her shoot another arrow!"
The three familiars acknowledged their roles and immediately rushed forward.
Their situation differed greatly compared to the enemy. The enemy summoner panicked when he saw his friend was taken out.
'No. Even though they are injured, I can't defeat them, at least not in a short amount of time. The others might have killed the alien at this point and are looking for them. I have to run away. I have to inform them about their strength.'
"Retreat!" the summoner ordered out loud while turning around.
But before he could take another step, a blast of Ena hit him, launching him into a tree next to him.
"Gah!" The summoner gritted his teeth, fully aware whose ability this was.
Selena, fully recovered, came with Anubis. Anubis immediately activated his ability, healing Fenrir and Risa while Selena looked at the summoner coldly as she was coming for revenge.
