The Chimaeric Demons dove into the fray. Their wings cut through air and bodies alike while they descended upon Levium's soldiers.
One of the clones swooped down on a group of blackguards.
With its talons extended, the clone tore through the first soldier's armor like paper.
The man collapsed, his scream stifled. The clone didn't stop there, as he imdiately pivoted to face the next threat.
There were two blackguards. Both of them attacked the clone from a distance.
A blackguard raised her weapon, energy crackling at its tip. The clone was faster. It lashed out with its beak, the tal-like appendage piercing the woman's throat. She gurgled, then went limp.
Levium noticed that and tossed the woman away, making her fall to the ground.
A gust of wind flew at the clone, taking the shape of a blade. The Chimaeric Demon tucked in its wings and rolled, avoiding the deadly wind blades.
As he steadied himself, the other blackguard unleashed an unidentified attack.
The clone's tal Fur brain crystal power was exerted against it. The fire hit its tal-like feathers without injuring the clone, leaving only a small black spot.
The Chimaeric Demon targeted the two blackguards with a Starlight Fireball. However, despite using multiple powers simultaneously, the soldiers dodged the attack.
This wasn't due to their own skill, but rather Levium's intervention, as he swiftly moved the two blackguards out of harm's way using his powers.
The demon's fireballs soared past them and continued their trajectory, exploding against the ground below them.
The clone pressed forward. There were many more targets in front of him, so he stopped targeting those two guys and set his sights on soone else.
Two more soldiers attacked the clone. He could do nothing but flap his wings and avoid so other attacks.
This ti, though, the clone struck back. Its claws scratched one soldier's face, while its beak pierced the weak spot in the other's armor.
The clone gushed blood, mangled at, and claid human lives. The clone killed 2 of the 3 targets it had to kill.
Victory hinged on each clone killing at least three enemies. Falling short ant defeat, barring Erik's intervention-provided he could defeat Levium.
Despite everything, the Chimaeric Demon wasn't so lucky. His success didn't go unnoticed. Many blasts of different kinds of energy hit him at once.
The clone infused his tal Fur brain crystal power with more mana. The enemy's mana usage increased in tandem with the damage he sustained.
The attacks deflected off its hardened feathers, but they hindered his flight, and he found himself struggling with the wind to regain control.
Close by, another Chimaeric Demon was fighting with the sa intensity. He dove into a group of enemy soldiers, tearing them apart like butter.
Levium wasn't able to control the battlefield in its entirety, and that allowed the clone to exert so pressure and kill more and more of the soldiers.
But the blackguard was doing a great job, and the Chimaeric Demons fell too.
The demon then flew into another crowd of confused soldiers. It slashed and pierced, to the point his feathers got scarlet red because of the blood.
A large soldier got close to the creature. He swung a huge energy axe, sending it hurtling through the air.
The clone barely survived it—the axe almost cut off his head-and he healed himself imdiately to avoid dying from blood loss.
As he set his sight on the man, the Chimaeric Demon flew toward him. After a barrage of starlight fireballs, the man stumbled back, and the clone seized the opportunity.
It grabbed him with both sets of talons and, using its beak, ripped his head off his torso.
However, in his last monts, the man made another energy axe. Before the clone could complete his task, the blackguard plunged the weapon deep into the Chimaeric Demon's imposing feathered chest.
The Chimaeric Demon let out a loud scream as he fell. So of the clones stopped fighting, seeing their brother die.
But the battle beca more brutal as soon as it resud. The number of enemy soldiers was much bigger than that of Erik's clones, and they couldn't rest even for a second.
In addition, losing a brother ant killing more enemies to make up for it.
However, they were genuinely making progress. While there were still more enemies than Chimaeric Demons, their numbers were not infinite.
A soldier unleashed a strange energy blast, striking the Chimaeric Demon's wing. Unable to evade, the clone faltered mid-flight. In that split second of vulnerability, enemies sward from all directions. The creature let out one final, piercing screech before succumbing to the onslaught.
Many other clones fell to the sa fate. One had just killed a soldier when a powerful energy blast hit him in the chest. Feathers fell from the sky all over the battlefield.
