Rea looked at the enemies while releasing her Magic Power. However, she was only one person. In front of her stood four King Class Monsters as well as many unique monsters.
The moment they released their Magic Power, the ground started to shake and the wind began to swirl around violently.
Looking at the difference alone, it was clear that Rea wouldn't be able to survive.
Still, Rea didn't lose hope. She knew that this was the greatest ordeal in her life, especially now that there was no one standing behind her.
However, she knew that the reinforcement would be coming. The human army should immediately move forward the moment Isaac and Walker arrive.
She was waiting for that chance to catch some breath. Although it was still impossible for humans to defeat these many powerful monsters, she believed they could hold them back for a while. So, the battle wasn't lost yet.
With that thought in mind, Rea combined the Dragon Form and Tengu Form in order to fight against these monsters. The Dragon Form had a robust vitality and the Tengu Form had extraordinary control over Magic Power. These two were the best in keeping her alive while stopping the enemies.
The monsters immediately roared the moment they saw Rea using her transformation. She knew that they couldn't let her regroup with the human army.
*Roar!*
*Roar!*
*Roar!*
The roar caused a chain reaction from the rest of the monsters as they began charging forth. The King Class Monsters also got a tacit understanding.
They split up, trying to surround Rea from all directions.
Rea knew their aim, so she immediately turned around, running away.
The unique monsters stood in their way, using barriers and explosions to stop her.
It took Rea a glance to see through their patterns. But if she started following their patterns, the other King Class Monsters would be able to catch up to her.
So, she exerted a lot of Magic Power and formed a dragon. This dragon was different from the usual. After all, she had the help of control from the Tengu Form.
The moment the dragon came forth, it released a roar.
*Roar!*
The roar reverberated the ground and shook the trees. There was so much Magic Power contained in that roar alone. And more importantly, that roar actually hit the barrier, striking not the barrier, but the Magic Power that built the barrier itself.
In that instant, the barriers shattered like glasses and the explosion marks disappeared as if they were being disintegrated.
The unique monsters gritted their teeth, trying to stop her. However, Rea was still strong enough to handle them as a Transcendent Level Expert.
Unfortunately for her, the one that was tasked to overtake her was a fox. The fox moved so fast that it suddenly appeared in her way as though it used teleportation.
"!!!" Rea was shocked. She was confident that no unique monsters could stop the current her who could combine two transformations, but a 'real' King Class Monster was a different case.
She waved her blade, extending it with her Magic Power. She planned to use the momentum of this long blade to push the monster away while there was still distance between them.
But the monster didn't seem to be afraid of this swing. Instead of running away, the fox actually concentrated all the Magic Power it could muster on its throat.
After that, the monster released a powerful breath that shot like a blue laser.
The moment their two Magic Powers collided, the world seemed to be split into two. The blue color came from the laser, while the gold one came from Rea's Magic Power.
Still, Rea had a trick in this blade extension. The moment the two energies clashed, Rea revealed the trick hidden inside the blade.
In that instant, the blade extension shrank before changing its shape into a huge dragon head.
This dragon head swallowed the energy and made its way toward the King Class Fox.
"!!!" The fox was quite amused by Rea's power, but it, by no means, feared this level of power.
The fox waved its tail, releasing a crescent-shaped Magic Power. The amount of the Magic Power was surprisingly higher than the beam as if telling Rea that she was tricked into thinking the beam was the best the monster had.
And this crescent-shaped energy soon struck the head. There was a clash of Magic Power, but it only lasted for a second before the crescent-shaped energy split the dragon into two.
It was clear that the fox was stronger than Rea, but it wasn't that much better. After cutting the dragon, the crescent-shaped Magic Power vanished into thin air as if it had exhausted all its energy.
With this, the monster and Rea had no other way but to stop each other in close combat.
Obviously, Rea didn't have the intention to get stopped here. She only planned to strike the enemy once before slipping past the fox.
This was a great idea. The moment they reached each other, Rea struck the fox with all her might.
The fox also used its paw to strike back. This clash would have caused a shock wave that pushed away all dust and trees around them.
But there was actually nothing happening. Right at the last second, Rea suddenly changed her blade's movement, barely missing the fox.
This way, both of them missed. Rea also got a consequence for changing the direction abruptly like that. Her sword ended up hitting the ground and piercing through it. If she tried to pull it out, the enemies would be able to catch up to her.
So, she simply let go of that sword and continued running as fast as she could.
"Fool, you're abandoning your swo—" The monster wanted to berate her, but he suddenly stopped the moment he saw Rea using the Kitsune Form and Genbu Form.
She used the former to improve her speed and the Genbu Form to use the snake to grab the sword while moving away.
Rea managed to escape… or so she thought.
Suddenly, the snake got entangled as if it was being captured by something. And Rea couldn't move it, causing her momentum to slow down.
"Wh—" Rea was shocked, trying to abandon the sword, but it was too late. Something struck her from the side, launching her away.
*Bam!*
