Knives in the Dark, Part Eleven

Even though Lia went out of her way to allow Neve to heal, the present situation could still accurately be described as sub-optimal. 

Lia had entered her second phase, evidenced by the change in her eye color and the blood-crimson flames wrapped around her daggers. Neve's mana was currently at 260, slowly regenerating while her opponent stood in front of her, waiting for her to give her any indication that it was time to resume the battle. 

Understanding that this was likely an opportunity no other boss would ever give her, Neve let blood drip from her chin to the floor as she tried to think of a plan. 

Even if she somehow ran around this arena long enough for her mana to reach 300 and she summoned Erin again, the problem with that was that she'd be completely useless from that point on. 

And, with this enemy being as fast and skilled as she was, if Erin failed to beat her then Neve would simply be screwed.
