Chrysalis

Chapter 360

Putting the servants on the defensive was only phase one of the plan, but it appears to have worked. There are six of them here at the moment, and possibly more still in hiding, but so long as we’re careful we should be fine. It’s rare that every mage comes when I turn up, in fact the one time they did we just turned around and ran off. However, it seems that the Lizard Wizard can’t spare them and that remains the only time I’ve seen all of them in the field at once, luckily for us.

[Don’t let yourselves get roasted,] I warned my pets.

I wouldn’t put it past either of them to go too far and try to tank a few spells in order to try and help me. It’s a wonderful spirit but I’m not willing to risk the health of my pets for something as small as this. If this attempt doesn’t succeed, then we’ll just try again until either we succeed or die trying.

[I’m being careful, Master] Crinis assured me.

I continued to blitz around with my dash skill, which rapidly drained my stamina but I didn’t have a choice, what with the fireballs and infernos that were being conjured around me. Even so, I managed to find the time to squeeze off a cheeky shot from the business district. A bit of guerrilla marketing, if you will.

POW! POW! POW!

All three shots hammered home onto the hastily raised shield of one mage who had the enjoyable experience of their line of sight being covered with a sticky, adhesive acid that began to bubble and hiss as it ate away the magical protection that surrounded them. Nasty!

Another mage hampered, another step closer to the ultimate victory. Now for the next one. Rolling underneath a jet of flame one of the mages unleashed at me, nearly catching my own antennae on fire, I spun expertly and fired once again!
