A New Threat

There was a slight pulse of mana from Winston, and Kary knew the taunting words had the effect they were supposed to have , as the small horde of twenty kobolds started rushing at them.

With the distance between them already relatively short, they would be upon them in seconds. But the four of them were ready.

With Violette at her side, the two of them started bombarding spells at the running kobolds, thinning their lines in a speedy manner. But the harpies weren't going to let them slay their slaves with impunity.

With a mighty screech, one harpy dove toward their ranks, aiming for the smallest of the four, Violette.

But it never made it to the girl, an arrow flying out of the darkness and planted in its head.

"Decent shot," Jin-Sil complimented, looking at Killian.

The Englishman had swapped out his two swords for a bow and was currently frowning.

"I was aiming for its ear, and hit its temple… I'm not satisfied with that shot," he groaned.
