Violet watched in stunned silence as Olivia's body was sent flying backwards from receiving the powerful spell. Olivia's shield had been rent in two, only half was still left attached to her arm. Her armour was in no better state, it too was nearly split in two, her entire stomach exposed and bleeding from the deep wound that she received.
When her limp body landed on the floor some distance away Violet was unable to look away.
Unfortunately she did not have the luxury to be so distracted. The creature chose that moment to appear behind the distracted dragon, its claws, wreathed in vibrant orange mana was raised to strike her down.
She failed to react to the surge of mana behind her, yet her companion was thankfully paying attention.
Luna appeared before the creature, her own swords swinging up to intercept the strike, yet she was not prepared for the force behind the mana wreathed claws.
