Chapter 541 - Erik vs Lilith [2/2]

The world slowed down as Erik rapidly analysed the battlefield. 

Enkai was stuck about a hundred meters (~100+ yards) to his right, with two distant Arcanists pinning him down—one launching lava spikes, the other holding him with mud magic. 

Intelligent enough, Enkai used his scorch affinity to heat and harden the mud, before smashing it apart with his clubbed weapon. It was obvious he wouldn't be stuck for long, but without his freedom, he couldn't properly defend against the lava spikes. Erik realized the werelion's defeat was a little too close at hand. 

But his immediate problem was a murderous Lilith and a ball of shadowflame barrelling straight for his face. Inwardly, Erik snorted. "I was hoping to use this to deal a direct blow to Lilith, but it is what it is."
