Since the giant monster appeared and was killed it's only been a little over 1 hour, that means it's been around 2 hours since this Monster Wave started.
I've talked to others who also want to help out in town, luckily it looks like we won't have to worry too much about particularly strong monsters since there are strong Adventurers that have arrived.
Before anything started I had already sent érica back to the Dungeon through the Fairy Gate in my Shadow, I don't trust the people of the Adventurer's Guild enough to leave érica who is unconscious here with them while we are fighting in the city.
Silvia and Freya would stay behind to look after Nicole who will be the focus of strategic management.
----------
"Now I've mentioned the monsters and everyone sees a map of the city, you know the monsters you should focus on!" (Adeline)
"We have to clear the city as soon as possible before the Dungeon Break or the situation could get out of control, if you find someone in need of help forward them to the points where the rest of the population should be protected!" (Adeline)
"All of you received short-range communication magic items before coming here, so let us know about monsters you can't handle, let us know about survivors or anything weird!" (Adeline)
"Don't try to play the Hero, just start fights you can win or run away while reporting the situation!" (Adeline)
I was behind the people sent by the Adventurer's Guild, there were hundreds of people that I could only sense the Aura of less than 200 and all of these were people with strength between Lower Catastrophe Grade and Upper Catastrophe Grade.
But they were only 40 to 45% of the people who came here, besides them, there are also people from the Mages Guild and some Priests from Church of Nature, Temple of Life, and Temple of Justice.
People from the three religions are taking care of the rescued, they are also helping with other things like the administration of this place that I imagine will become a planning center when they are rebuilding this city.
Adelina was a Human woman, her appearance was that of someone over 50 years old, but even so, the atmosphere around her was wild like a beast, she is dressed in leather clothes with only a few parts in metal like the chest, joints and in parts from her arms, she also carried a fencing sword that I don't remember the name of, but I know it's a sword focused on speed and thrusts.
Soon Adelina starts sending people to the city from the strongest to the weakest, this should be another protective measure since if too many people enter the city at the same time they will draw the attention of all the monsters.
I tell the others before I leave that we're going to keep the groups we decided on earlier as much as possible.
-----------
Pov Athena:
I enter the city again flying with my group, from somewhere we have a better view of the situation.
"What do we do now?" (Angela)
"Forget the plans, this is the time to act, see Renato." (Darius)
"< Piercing Light Feathers >" (Renato)
Sigh
He's right, this is a simple monster fight, that's what we've been asked to do and we don't have to think like we're in charge.
"Darius is right, attack and kill the monsters!" (I)
"< Judgment Armor >" (I)
"< Enchant: Sword of Judgment >" (I)
I was already wearing Mithril armor and I still use magical armor materialized using mana from Light, Shadow, and my Aura.
Then I run towards the army of Fire Demons coming towards us, these monsters are not very strong but they formed an army of hundreds, Renato ran ahead because there was a group of people covered in blood fighting these monsters.
I give a strong thrust with my wings and try to cut the first one with my sword, but he reacts by defending himself with his own sword, my sword cuts his before decapitating his head, so I spin in the air as the blades that are part of the my armor on my wings deal damage to nearby enemies.
I use this time to throw myself into hand-to-hand combat, not knowing how many monsters are left in this city and its surroundings, I try to save my strength for when it's really necessary.
So I keep fighting using the same two spells, I boost upwards dodging the fire actors while a shower of feathers from my companions causes a good distraction for me to run between the enemies.
I pierced the neck of one with my sword while pushing 3 with my wings towards earth spears created by another of my companions, I do a somersault landing a top-down kick to another monster whose head was crushed.
During combat, beams of light, waves of water, and stone spikes continue across the battlefield, and people who were previously being cornered began to fight more aggressively.
Spells that create swords of materialized Mana that are being controlled from a distance, spells that weaken enemies, and barriers that trap groups of enemies.
These people have few strikers but have good skills.
"Athena watch out!" (Angela)
"< Air Hammer >" (Darius)
The Focus Demons we're facing have red skin, white horns, and flames instead of hair, all are wearing soldier armor with weapons like swords, spears, or axes.
When Angela tried to warn me I noticed something coming from behind my back, so I threw myself to the ground while giving a low kick across the ground that didn't hit anything, that's because the enemy that came from behind my back was a Slicing Bird, these things have energy demonic in their bodies and the feathers on their wings are as sharp as daggers, they also have the element of wind and are capable of using wind magic.
"< Obscured Court >" (I)
These things are fast, he managed to dodge Darius's attack, but gave me the opportunity to cut him with one of my attacks, he dodges the blade coming towards him without realizing that it was an illusion and the real blade of my sword was further behind giving me time to adjust its direction to cut off one of the monster's wings, then finish by crushing the thing's head under my boot.
