Looking around, Francis could not see James. He did saw that Edgar was in the vicinity where James was. However he was not able to pay too much attention at the overall situation, as he was occupied by the demonic beast that was attacking him.
With the strength he has, it was not a difficult job for him to slay his opponent. As the demonic beast fell down, Francis was about to go to the location where James was supposed to be. Just as he was about to make a move, one of the soldiers screamed out, "Be careful! The hybrids are making their move!"
Hearing this, Francis looked over to the location where the hybrids were, and indeed they were making their move. The winged bears were flying high up into the sky trying to find locations where to drop at. As for the lions, they were aiming at the command posts of the soldiers. It was clear that the demonic beasts had specific targets when attacking.
However this time the soldiers were prepared. As a lot of the demonic beast had been slain by the time that the hybrids made their move, more soldiers could concentrate on dealing with the hybrids.
Francis decided to face one of the lion beasts, as he was more familiar with its movements. Rushing over to the closest lion hybrids, he could see that various other soldiers in the vicinity had the same target in their aim. Ignoring the rest, Francis looked around ones more, hoping to see James also rush forward to the same target as him. However to his disappointment, he could not see any traces of James.
Arriving at the spot where the demonic beast was busy, Francis could see that the aim of the demonic hybrid was someone he was rather familiar with. At least go to know him more during these last few months. It was none other than Sir Edward.
Being suppressed by the constant attacking of the demonic hybrid, Sir Edward had not much option to counter it and was being on the defense.
Seeing this, Francis rushed forward trying to hit the hybrid at its back to get at least a hit on it. If he did not hit the beast, he could maybe distract it enough to provide Sir Edward with a striking opportunity.
Francis was not the only one that had similar thoughts as multiple soldiers were approaching the demonic beast from multiple directions. Noticing this, the demonic hybrid frantically swung its tail around, trying to put the soldiers at a distant.
Seeing the situation, Francis looked around and saw a spear of a fallen soldier lying on the ground. It was close to him, so he decided to pick it up and throw it to the demonic hybrid. With a little bit of luck he might hit it, or distract it, whichever option happened.
Picking up the spear, Francis threw the spear towards the back of the demonic hybrid. To his surprise the spear actually hit the demonic beast, as a loud screech could be heard from its direction.
As the demonic hybrid reacted to the pain it felt, multiple soldiers saw an opening and rushed in with their weapons attacking the hybrid. Before long, the demonic hybrid was lying on the ground lifelessly.
As soldiers looked towards the direction where the spear came from, all saw Francis' surprised face. They all gave a nod towards Francis as they continued with the battle.
