Chapter 89: Synergy between the devils.
The initial charge went well.
Thorax slammed the tortoise shell in two surprised beasts, and Arax immediately decapitated them after Lee commanded the group to turn left. But the cow sized porcupines were an annoying bunch. They didn't simply curl up and stay still, in hopes the attacker would retreat after realizing it was impossible to hurt them.
In a blink of an eye they surrounded the four, although didn't immediately attack.
In few moments it became clear why. The quills the beasts were covered in turned crimson, and even from several yards away Lee felt the heat coming from them.
"Fire sparks!" Thorax exclaimed, but Lee's shout to focus calmed him down a bit.
"Forward!" Lee commanded, seeing they had to take the initiative, and the devil holding the shell crashed into the beasts that were barring their way.
Lee heard Arax's happy cheer after chopping a beast at the right side, but two others that half-dashed, half-rolled at him and Jiraxa were the actual danger.
He shouted, "Left!"
Thorax's reaction was quick, and he managed to bock the two, but his advancement was stopped by the impact. But at this moment the two brothers showed why they were capable of surviving for so long.
