Hilia sucked in a sharp breath of cold air.
She immediately thought of those strangely hard Demons she had dealt with before.
For Mages above Tier Four, they were already a huge headache; if the ones facing them were below Tier Three…
Could anyone even break their defense?
"They're being way too aggressive." Hilia felt a bit on edge. She looked at Ashugar at the very front, her eyes flickering with a spark of anger.
Feeling Hilia's thoughts, Rose smiled faintly. "You want to stop them?"
"I…"
"You can't. You're a bit too weak right now."
Hilia fell silent.
A moment later, with hope in her eyes, she looked at Rose. "Lord Rose…"
Rose chuckled and reached out to rub her head.
"No need to stop them. This is a good thing. It's much better than waiting until the number of Demons passes a certain threshold, mutates, directly rots the Array, and breaks out onto the surface on its own.
