Emmy guarded her head when she was about to crash into the cliff face. The dust that surfaced at the site was enough to block her from the view of the enemies there completely. She coughed and then got to action the moment she was on her feet, dashing toward the group.
The surrounding area told her that she was still a bit away from the graveyard that was behind the church itself, but that distance wasn't far, not to mention that an abyss-mage could clear the distance with teleportation with ease.
Emmy spotted a Cryo abyss mage in the distance, her target confirmed the girl picked up the pace as she headed toward the monster. The Cryo abyss mage waved its wand and sent an icicle at her face, to kill her.
However, ...
'Good luck touching me with that slow popsicle of a weapon,' Emmy snorted a dodged the attack easily, with a burst of Elemental force, she accelerated, finally meeting the monster face to face.
"Hehe, bye-bye now," Emmy slapped her Pyro-infused hand on the Cryo shield, causing several melt reactions to occur as the durability of the shield decreased rapidly.
The abyss mage tried to run away but Emmy added more energy to the attack causing the shield to break and the abyss mage to fall into a state of [Weakness]. The girl ignored her other enemies at the sight of such an opportunity, she slashed at the beast's head.
'Hmm?' Emmy thought as she looked at the still intact head of the abyss mage, if it were one of her previous adversaries, it would have been cut clean off.
'It's still largely intact, I mean it is at a much higher rank than I am but to think that a slash with all my power wouldn't even make a scratch. It is quite disheartening.'
She could sense the heat that was to approach her in the form of a Pyro attack. So, with haste, the girl enhanced her blade with energy and took another swing at the Abyss mage, but while it did cut into the monster a little, it was still largely undamaged.
The heat at her back grew even more intense and with a regretful sigh Emmy backed away but not before grabbing the Cryo abyss mage and placing it in the path of the encroaching fire. The girl turned her sights to the numerous Abyss mages surrounding her.
Emmy raised her guard and readied herself for a tough battle, she enhanced her muscles with energy for the fight but then another explosion sounded out in the direction of the gate, and the girl's attention snapped toward it like a whip, but the attack of a hydro mage made her look away to dodge an attack it sent her way.
"Keke, puny human, why don't you give up now."
"Yes yes, kukuku. Why don't you sit back and watch the show."
The laughter and jeers of abyss mages engulfed the surroundings in a pool of cancerous sound, Emmy blocked her ears as her eye squinted from the pain. The sounds were loud but none were louder than the one she heard next.
"Hehehe," Emmy looked in the direction of the laugh to see the Cryo abyss mage she defeated earlier was now surrounded by icicles and a magic circle was beneath it, a moment later its shield was restored.
Emmy's eyes widened in surprise, 'So quickly? I thought it still had a little time until it could do that?'
[Naturally like humans, not all abyss mages are the same. This is to be kept in mind for all abyss creatures you come across, especially those of bipedal nature.]
The system's mechanical tone was what Emmy would imagine suggestive tone sounded like if a human said those words, but she didn't have the time to ponder on what the training guide was hinting at.
"Kekeke, is the little human angry~ Does she need some bottled milk? You want your mama?"
Emmy gashed her teeth. She didn't have time to fight all of these pesky mages.
'Also, I don't need my mom and I wish I could kill you for even mentioning her you little– argh!'
Nothing needed to be said about the girl's mood at this point, she was pissed to the moon.
"Oh? Would you look at her face?" The Cryo mage said, its gruff voice softening as a mother's voice when she spoke to a baby.
"What is it?" A Pyro mage said in the same tone.
"She looks like a tomato, you think she's gonna pop anytime soon?! Kekeke!"
"Kekeke!"
Cryo, Pyro, and Hydro mages circled the girl, but she merely sighed and lifted her right arm, she bit her lip and spoke.
"Inu, kill them all for me!"
Saying such words, the girl turned and left. She maneuvered around the mages and got away from them quickly. The moment they say this, some of the mages tried to follow the girl only to discover that they were unable to move.
Not only that but when Emmy moved to escape the encirclement, they could even feel themselves giving her room to pass, even though they wanted her to stay. It was as if their bodies didn't listen to them.
"Where do you think you're going?" A voice reverberated through the surrounding area, and the wind began to pick up speed.
A figure covered in black and grey combat robes stood in the middle of the encirclement of mages, on his back were two blades. The type is unknown.
"Who are you? You dare to interrupt the plans of the abyss," A Pyro abyss mage said, its voice laced with evil intentions as it brandished its wand, sending three dragon heads to encircle Inu.
The man merely took one step forward to dodge the basic one-directional attack of the abyss mage. He turned toward the beast, the dog mask on his face, and the contemptuous smile it seemed to form sent the abyss mage into a rage.
"How dare you mock me! You stupid human dog!"
The abyss mage swung its wand in a flurry and the Cryo abyss mages in the area distanced themselves from it in fear of their shields being broken. The Abyss mage sent a fire tornado that sucked in and ignited the air around it.
Seeing the massive 6-meter tornado trying to suck him in, Inu felt no fear. A smile crept up his face, he was reminded of a distant past, when the young miss tried to kill him. It wouldn't have damaged him at all, but his loyalty and creed said that he needed to receive the punishment.
Inu laughed, the thought he had way back then resurfaced in his mind.
'What a cute attack.'
He was soon caught in the attack and disappeared from the view of all the abyss mages.
The Pyro Abyss mage laughed for it had killed its opponent, but the faces of the other abyss mages made the laughter come to a halt.
"What?"
A Cryo abyss mage just shook its head, pointing downward.
'My chest—' A sword was embedded into the chest of the abyss mage, and it gasped, for its shield was not broken yet a weapon still made it through.
Then it heard a whisper, right beside its small right ear, saying.
"Who said your shield wasn't broken?"
To the shock of all the other mages the body was them slip into multiple pieces in the blinks of an eye. Inu looked at them all in fury.
"What's up?! Can't speak now huh! Where was all the talk you were spouting earlier!"
They no longer moved or spoke.
"Weren't you mean to my young miss? Weren't you all being arrogant a while ago? Where is all that bravery now huh!?"
He grabbed an abyss mage at his side and the horror of the ones watching proceeded to squeeze the shield until it cracked. Soon after, the shield broke and the mage fell to the ground, where it was greeted by a blade to the face.
It died.
"Well, no matter," Inu shrugged and vanished, his voice continued to echo through the surroundings as the wind in the area began to pick up rapidly, "I'll just offer all your heads to the young miss for your disrespect."
All of them tried to teleport away but soon discovered that they were all locked in the area and couldn't move, the 20-something abyss mages. They were then dragged toward the man in the middle, the wind concentrated into a massive cyclone.
Anemo collided and mixed with the elements of all the abyss mages causing the [Swirl] reaction to occur.
It was well known that Anemo on its own wasn't enough to break an elemental shield of any kind because it was fundamentally a support element meant to enhance the others. Particularly their elemental reactions.
The massive [Swirl] reaction that now took place disintegrated the shields of all the abyss mages in the area and not a moment later their bodies were turned to ash by Inu's attacks.
He had sent them back to whence they came, the abyss.
"Hmph! The young miss needs to train a little more," Inu snorted fondly before he merged into the shadows, his voice left in the surrounding area, "These guys were not difficult at all."

Meanwhile, on the road to Springvale, a man of an astronomical height stood in the middle of the path, and in front of him was a large army of abyss monsters. The abyss mages there looked fearful of the man, but he merely smiled.
He lifted his mighty great sword and swung it, causing a massive wind current that dissipated a chunk of the army. All the while nothing but the strength in his arm was used.
"Hmm," He looked at the city in the distance a faint bit of worry colored his brows, "Guess I should make this quick, those children are waiting for me."
