Consequences

- On the 11th Floor of the Dungeon -

With Evilus and Revis hot on their trail, the Elf squad and the Xenos escaped as fast as they could up the dungeon. The head start they got from Riveria's Rea Laevateinn was the difference, but the enemy was starting to catch up. Also that spell basically used up all of Riveria's magic reserves.

Fortunately, the physical distance prevented the use of the suicide squads that were deployed in many traps in the Knossos. In fact, the enemy started having their suicide squads trail their main force by a significant distance. That was due to the elves repeatedly firing off fire magic with the hope to set off their kaenseki explosives.

As Revis got close, she threw a cursed blade towards the elves, but Ray sacrificed her body to save Alicia. In tears, Alicia carried the injured Xenos with her to try to save her savior. Unfortunately, that got Evilus even closer, and things were starting to look dire.

As Revis was about to strike down the elves, reinforcements finally arrived with Finn, Bete, Fels, Tione, Raul and Lefiya. Finn, Bete and Tione went to gang up on Revis while Lefiya, Raul and Fels helped with the injured Xenos and elves.

Finn "Lefiya, help Riveria, she is almost mind zero. Get them up the dungeon now!"

Tione "We will hold them off, just get them out of here!"

Lefiya "Haik!"

With Finn, Bete and Tione forming a barrier against the enemy, the elves and Xenos were able to retreat to the 10th floor. There, they regrouped a bit while treating the wounded. The first priority was a couple recovery potions for Riveria while using healing potions on the injured elves and Xenos. Unfortunately, the injuries to Ray and Alicia would not close due to the use of cursed weapons. Thus, they rushed the two back to the surface with Gros carrying Ray and Lyd carrying Alicia.

Seeing Riveria in better condition, Lefiya headed back to assist Finn's group along with several Xenos. As Lefiya approached the fight, she started to chant Fusillade Fallarica. The spell took out most of the remaining Evilus, but they could see that Revis was unaffected. Further back, Ein also seemed to be completely unaffected by Lefiya's attack.

However, the fire based spell soon ignited a whole series of explosions when all the Kaenseki on the dead Evilus members all exploded. The explosions were enormous, collapsing a huge portion of the floor...
