The woman look at the magic girl squad
"Did I interrupt a magic girl tea party or something?"Angel knew what to do. First, the one-liner:
"You interrupted my drawing lesson."
"...you humans get weirder the more I fight.""I'll give you one more chance to explain who the Hell you are and what you want with me before I start fighting properly."
I am the vanguard, Tabella and you are my enemy, nothing more."She turn to the monsters
"Gold! Xantalos! Attack!"Nuriel cast(12+7) a field of fire catching all three (5+1vs9+2,10+6,20+9) who all block the magic attack with barriers, the dragon barely manages it, but the magic girl and mass of flesh do it so easily they throw an attack back.
*COUNTER* An axe and a tentacle fly through the flames(18+6,16+9vs4(well the RNG hate you)+5) and both hit(4+6,6+9vs5+7) but only the tentacle does anything noticeable, drawing blood(Nuriel HP:103/105)
Chiron ride through the beasts, choosing the dragon as his first target(2+5vs20+2) but the dragon fly up and unleashed a fireball back.
*COUNTER* (4+9vs15+5) Which Chiron cut in half with his staff(don't ask, magic).
"Nice try, here ours. Dance to my will." Tabella hands glow blue. Xantalos and Gold start glowing the same colour, causing the mass to dig into the ground while the dragon take fight
"Malice!"(tails)(3+6)(18+9vs11+5-3(misdirection))*CRIT* Chiron look at Tabella, thinking the attack coming that way, allow tendrils to grab him from below. Tabella giggles
"Meteorite!" (5+9vs*CRIT* negated dodge chance, *CRIT*)(13+9x2vs12+5) Chiron look up in time to see a fireball that engulf him.
Anima screams in shared pain(Anima HP:38/65). The tendrils are burned away, but Xantalos seem unaffected by their loss.
