Chapter 1521
The Horde had no trouble just adjusting the course of Choking Wind so that it would strike at the Warden the moment she reappeared.

Much to their surprise, Phloria didn’t just Blink, but also Switched them to keep Athung safe. The Mage Knight conjured her personal tier four Spirit Magic spell, Stalwart Defender.

The penta-elemental spell used the light and earth elemental aspects to form a thick barrier that only let the light in, the fire element to convert the kinetic energy of incoming attacks into heat that the water element would neutralize, and the darkness aspect to eat at anything that stuck at the barrier for too long.

Such a young Awakened foiling one of their best spells flabbergasted the Horde and bought Athung the time she needed to finish her array. The three concentric magic circles started revolving as she projected them amid the enemy lines.

The innermost circle used gravity magic to generate a powerful suction akin to a tornado, sweeping in everything that came too close. The second circle used dimensional magic to limit the area of effect of the first array, allowing Athung to adjust its power according to the circumstances.

Whenever one of her allies neared the array, she would reduce the output so as to not suck them in as well whereas the moment only enemies remained, she would unleash the full power of the gravity array.

The last and more external array conjured a thick layer of darkness magic within its area of effect. The three magical formations combined together generated a gravity field of variable intensity where everything stuck inside would be devoured by the darkness.
