With the deaths of Diggory and Holden, the rest of the enemies fell like dominoes.
Anna and Virion, who had been locked in a stalemate for all this time, saw an opening. One of the undead knights fighting them, who had been about to attack, suddenly plunged into the ocean.
Its body was unmoving, and the weapon in its hand had already slipped away. Noticing this, Dorset's eyes narrowed.
Was that Diggory's? He thought in alarm.
Thinking of the ramifications of the knight's fall, he immediately drew back, making enough distance from the enemy. At the same time, he ordered the remaining two undead knights to flank his sides and guard him.
Anna and Virion hovered side by side. The princess seemed to be in a much better state than her ally. Virion had been injured in many places. The wounds were grave enough that he could only barely sustain the Flight spell.
"It would appear one of the Necromancers has been slain," Anna muttered in an even voice.
