Against the Waves

Igni stood her ground, with flames raging all over her body, protecting her like armor.

The angel-like enemies charged without regard, shouting things in a language the girls couldn't understand. They sounded angry—no, completely furious—at the intruders!

"...!"

As usual, despite being in the 9th stage, their only attack method was charging forward and waving their weapons. Although it wasn't as threatening as getting rained on by long-range attacks from thousands of enemies, fending them off was still a jarring task.

Igni met their charge bravely, waving the flaming sword in her hand.

*ZASH!*

The soul-vanquishing flames covering her blade took the lives of all the enemies they touched in a few seconds. But although their bodies also burned, it took time before they became ashes. As such, corpses were starting to pile up around her, making it a lot more difficult to maneuver.

"Fang! A little help over here, please!"
