This battle did not look very good, little by little we were losing our companions, even though we were much stronger than those beasts, those portals never stopped summoning creatures and we were not able to approach them or shoot them with something heavy to destroy them.

That Dark Sorcerer protects those portals very well.

I had an idea in mind but I didn't know how to execute it correctly, there was no clear situation to do it.

While I was fighting I saw how a companion was impaled between 3 beasts with their weapons and they continued stabbing him on the ground and then began to eat him alive.

For a small moment, I felt afraid.

The idea of ​​leaving in the middle of all this battle crossed my mind... I really didn't want to have a death like that, the idea scared me...

The attack of a beast brought me back to reality, I blocked the attack while looking around.

I am not so...

I can't sit still waiting for them to slaughter us, I have to do something.

I decided to execute the plan I had in mind.

At one point I signaled to the girls so they understood that we would attempt a small coordinated attack to take down the Dark Sorcerer.

I finished cutting off the head of the beast I was struggling with, I made a sign to Saga to look up, she looked and understood, I ran towards her, Saga finished tearing off the arm of a beast and stabbed its eyes with their daggers. After that he joined his arms and gave me a great push with his strength upwards, I managed to catch the leg of one of the flying beasts, it began to shake too much, I swung and climbed on top of it, I stabbed the beast in the back with my sword and tried to direct it towards the Dark Sorcerer. while it was heading towards him, the Dark Sorcerer attacked me with a kind of cut, I made a jump towards the Dark Sorcerer, the flying beast was cut in half by that cut, as I fell towards him, I tried to cut him with my sword, but he activated his shield and my sword was blocked, at that moment Alba saw an opportunity from below, she cut the throat of one of the beasts, took the beast's spear and threw it towards the Dark Sorcerer from behind, he activated an ethereal form and the spear passed through him as if nothing had happened and continued on its way.

However, all that was just a decoy.

Saga activated his werewolf ability and gained overwhelming strength and speed.

She ran looking to propel herself into something, all the trees were destroyed because the Dark Sorcerer had destroyed almost all the trees surrounding the battlefield to specifically prevent that type of attack. Saga did not lose his cool and quickly ran towards the camp wall, he jumped towards the wall, he gained momentum and due to the monstrous strength he had, he left a large crater in part of the wall, but thanks to that he pushed himself forward incredible speed.

The Dark Sorcerer did not have the reflexes to react and was met with Saga's fist in the air.

The Dark Sorcerer was thrown downwards, making a large crack in the earth due to the impact, he was somewhat dizzy, when he trying to stand up again, Alba appeared in front of him and buried a sword in his throat. The Dark Sorcerer did not lose his calm and stretched his hand below Alba.

Out of nowhere, Alba was pierced by a black sword on her shoulder. She managed to react in time and jumped back to get out of that situation, but the sword managed to pierce part of her armor until it reached her shoulder.

When she realized what had attacked her from below, she was surprised; it was a shadow of herself.

The Dark Sorcerer summoned that shadow by aiming below it.
