The armored creatures rushed towards them with standard running movements, neither too fast nor too slow. The clanking sounds and vibrations they created as they approached made it easier for the four Hunters to see them..
Alysia took the lead, with David following closely behind her.
"You protect Arsa!" Alysia shouted the order to Rama.
Rama frowned, feeling a bit surprised by the command. However, it wasn't an incorrect order as Arsa couldn't engage in combat, so someone had to stay behind to protect her.
Rama moved closer to Arsa, gripping his sword. He didn't see any text appearing in his vision, indicating that they were about to face a challenge. Perhaps this was something slightly different from their experiences in the Holy Tomb Dyre, Rama thought.
Alysia and David faced some difficulty as they had to battle in the darkness, relying solely on their flashlights. However, being a B-Rank Hunter, Alysia remained composed.
