Chapter 79.5: S rank duo
All the knights and adventurers were holding their ground with surprising efficiency. The coordination between divisions and guild fighters was tight, and morale remained high despite the overwhelming numbers.
Among the most impressive were the S-rank adventurer siblings—Slen and Selena.
Slen moved with grace and precision, manipulating water as if it were part of his own body. With a mere drop, he summoned spears and blades of pressurized water that pierced through waves of monsters effortlessly. The ground beneath his feet remained untouched, a testament to his control.
Selena, on the other hand, was chaos incarnate. Her acid magic sizzled through the air, and her crowd-control spell, Acid Splash, melted through monster flesh and armor alike. Everything the corrosive mist touched dissolved into bubbling ruin.
As Selena unleashed a particularly wide-area acid attack, Slen shouted from the side, leaping away from the melting aftermath.
Slen: "What are you doing, sister!? Watch your magic! I don't want to pay for it if you melt the capital!"
Selena: (grinning) "Relax! There's no one else around here but us. Besides, your water magic can nullify my acid—just chill."
Despite the banter, their synergy was perfect. The monsters didn't stand a chance when facing the deadly siblings. Their presence gave everyone hope—even as the forest continued to shake, and the true danger of Phase Two loomed.
