Defeating the Monsters

"Not good."

With the shield shattered into pieces, there was nothing to stand between them and the monsters anymore.

Agata and Theo had the same reaction when it snapped. They raised several pillars at random locations to confuse the monsters.

The pillars reached the ceiling to make it look like a wall.

Unexpectedly, the monsters didn't seem to fall for the same trick anymore. After learning Agata's smoke disappeared together with the shield, the monsters didn't hesitate and rammed their heads against the wall.

Theo's pillars instantly disappeared as he didn't train his Awareness for this. Agata's pillars managed to hold for a second before snapping into two.

Seeing the situation become chaotic, Theo took a deep breath and gathered all his killing intent into one single point before releasing it toward the monster at the very front.

"!!!" The monster stopped for two seconds.
