Ray hadn't gone all out. This wasn't a battle where he had to burn his magic power like crazy to win.
Secondly, he was a Tamer. He could summon Muri to double his combat power!
Pshhhk! Pshhhk! Pshhhk!
Dozens of metallic spikes blasted out of the cloud of dust, piercing all four Lizardmen. Three burst like balloons. The last one collapsed to the ground lifelessly, a spike embedded deep in its head.
Ding!

"Good job, Muri!" Ray praised his summon.
Muri bounced up and down, expressing its joy at being praised. "Thanks for the praise, Master."
Ray could have dealt with it himself. But he didn't—he let Muri play a little. It must have felt bored sitting in his Niwan Palace for hours. Tamers had to be considerate of their battle companion's feelings if they wished to develop a strong relationship. With a thought, he recalled Muri back into his Niwan Palace before resuming his trek through the grassland.
