Both Shiroe and Rinne are excited with Elder Tales' release of 12th expansion pack. However, during the release, more than 30 thousands of players 'entered into' Elder Tales, including both of them.
'Well, might as well enjoy while it last~~' Rin...
"Naotsugu. Rin. Straight-line formation. Our enemies are PKers, I have visual contact on 4. I'll determine their location... There!" Shiroe shouted on the road covered by the shadows of the trees in the middle of the night.
Mind Bolt, a basic greenish-white bolt attack spell of Enchanter, shot out of Shiroe's staff. It had less attack power compared to summoners and sorcerers at the same level. But as the basic attack of the Enchanters, Shiroe had many chances to use it.
Shiroe complained about his low attack power often, but Naotsugu thought this was no big deal. Instead of powerful spells that were often missed, simple spells at the right time were much better.
"Enemy sighted! Summon: Phantom!" Rinne alerts Shiroe and Naotsugu and summons her creature.

(Just imagine their phantom is like this >< If it is not, then nvm, it is just in my fanfic ^^)
A semi-translucent ghost oozes out of the void and floats around with a rap sound that arises from Rinne's summon magic circle beside her. During summoning, it has the effect of distracting the enemy's attention from the caster, and there are many summoners who would normally use it as a preparation for using great techniques.
However, that is not only the aim that Rinne has summons Phantom. Phantom has a lower attack power than other summonses but has a higher evasion rate and magic resistance. Even so, it has a certain skill and unique form that only the level 90 Necromancer sub-class could use it. (Author note: This is just my imagination. I have no idea how the summon Phantom actually attacks other than it shows in the anime)
Usually, Naotsugu would proceed to attack the sighted enemy. However, in this case, he intentionally retreated to his position in the straight-line formation. In a line formation, the distance between the front and back was crucial. If they were too far apart, the rear would be open to attacks.
Even if hime had summoned a phantom to distract the enemies, it is best to stay close to them since this time our enemies are different than usual. Naotsugu thought.
"They have guts, turning to PKing... I wonder if they miss their mommies so much they have turned into animals? Thinking they can celebrate victory by ambushing us, doesn't make me laugh." Naotsugu turned the passion in his heart into words.
This time, the enemies that they are facing are the players that hunt and kill other players instead of monsters.
Even if they had failed to surprise us with their attacks, they still have the advantage due to their numbers and preparation. Whereas, our advantages are... Shiroe thought while looking at the four shadows that emerged from the darkness.
1 fighter, 2 bandits, and 1 healer? But that does not match with the sneak attack towards Nao-chan just now. That skill that chained Nao-chan should be a Sorcerer class... Maybe that's why Onii-chan shouted that there are 4 of them so that Akatsuki could find the rest... Rinne slightly glances at her brother, who is standing behind her.
