Using the small opportunity, Wardenwild distanced himself. Just the small exchange already showed the difference in their levels.
Spirits aren't known for their offensive abilities which Wardenwild isn't that much surprised about. Thinking that the ash-like smoke around Wardenwild spread out which through it came out the best corpses Wardenwild has in his disposal.
Wardenwild preserves some special corpses for himself, which are off limits to those he sells, These corpses are mostly powerhouses of the human race that have met their end with no family to return to.
With his ash like smoke, he preserves and strengthens these corpses so they can protect him when in danger. Right now his best corpses are those of Björn's people recently found in the battlefield.
Dozens of ashy-like humans with animal features walked out as they all took their werebeast form.
