Swords sang in metallic clangs, accompanied by the violent yet satisfying splashes of water as the battle raged on.
The B-rankers, Ahfa and Akri, simply decided to guard the crystals.
On the other hand, the A-rankers were still trying to join the battle, but they weren't successful.
An entire, unexpected minute has passed, yet the stalemate proved more stable than it seemed.
Although he could only take a defensive fighting style, Daru wasn't letting the two SS-rankers anywhere near his comrade.
They were welcome to help eliminate Kazuraga, but they weren't allowed to harm Iris.
Lothara and Ae'shkar wanted to rip their hair out in disbelief and frustration.
There was simply no way a human S-ranker could handle two SS-rankers.
If the two were to be honest, they were starting to doubt their skills.
But they were Vesharis.
Logic and efficiency first, bruised ego second.
Ae'shkar suddenly jumped back, calling out: "Lothara!"
