The clash of Shaï's blazing spear against the magma colossus shook the air. The creature roared, its molten stone arms partially disintegrating from the impact, but it reformed almost instantly, fed by the elemental core lodged in its chest. Shaï landed gracefully, his luminous wings retracting in a flash. His icy gaze swept across the battlefield before locking onto Daisey.
"Sorry for the delay, little flame," he said with a smirk. "I was… occupied."
Daisey growled, her voice a mix of relief and irritation. "Busy chasing after those half-human girls again, as usual?"
Kaelden burst into laughter while slicing through a demon attempting to take advantage of the distraction. "At least he's on time for the fun part!"
Daisey, already channeling her remaining mana, pointed her Ikakalaka at the elemental core pulsing in the colossus's chest. "Focus your attacks on its heart! That core is tied to a Fire Spirit—if we break it, the creature will fall apart!"
