An Owl's Rise

"Now!" Evelyn said, signaling the start of their attack.

The humans had just used several powerful magic items and attacks to deal a devastating blow to the massive wriggling rose bush.

The resilient plant monster was still alive and trying to recover, but it was likely that the humans would soon finish it off.

This was the perfect chance for Evelyn and her allies to swoop in and deal with both the humans and the rose bush all at once.

Coming in fast Evelyn targeted down the same woman she had clashed with before while the others chose their own targets.

All at once the nine owls attacked the nine humans who were already exhausted and unprepared for such a vicious attack.

Of course, none of these humans were weak and noticed the attacks coming for them, but even then, they only just barely had any time to defend themselves.

Evelyn crashed into her opponent like a speeding truck, clad in her heavenly flame and wind and her weight increased by her gravity magic.

The woman grunted loudly upon taking the impact and if not for her powerful armor she would have suffered internal injuries that would have incepted her.

With a loud crash the woman slammed into one of the study trees and began sliding down it.

She was already injured from the battle with the rose monster, but now he had slight burns all over her body and several minor fractures.

Though Evelyn had not gotten off unscathed during her charge. The recoil from her impact had hurt her a bit as well and the spear wielding woman had taken a stab at her and nicked her left wing.

"You again." The woman said hatefully as she glared at Evelyn.

Her gaze then turned all around her at the chaotic battlefield that was being fought between owls, humans, and the slowly recovering rose monster.

In the opening attack, Anneli and Savan had killed their human targets and had moved on to help Aralee and Verrader who were having the most trouble.

Rehni, Bylur, and Katrina were entangled in a massive fight against three of the humans and the rose monsters, while Otis fought his opponent one on one.

"I am going to kill all of you." The woman fighting Evelyn screamed, enraged by seeing two of her comrades already begin killed.

In a flurry she spun her spear around and cast a spell that created a serpent of fire that began chasing Evelyn around.

Taking evasive actions, Evelyn avoided the serpent hunting her down in order to not give away that fire magic could not hurt her. She wanted to only show this ability at a pivotal moment.

'Oh, I guess that is human magic for you. They do not need to focus as much.' Evelyn thought watching the woman cast other complicated spells.

| сom Since humans used spells that always did a set action with only slight variability it was easier for them to use multiple complicated magics without needing to fully control them.

Soon the woman was wearing wings made of fire and chasing Evelyn through the sky along with several spells that were seeking her out.

Still, while this was impressive, Evelyn had perfect control over her magic and was using her far greater maneuverability to avoid being hit while launching more nimble attacks.

Just as she had seen Melisandre do when battling the empress dryad, Evelyn created dozens of small flames like fireflies that she manipulated to assault her opponent.

The woman at first did not seem to care about these small flames attacking her. As a fire magic practitioner herself, she had a high tolerance to heat, and had cast a spell to further boost her resistance.

Any flame as small as the ones Evelyn was controlling would normally never be able to harm her, but Evelyn's flames were special.

The small crimson fires pinpointed the open skin on the woman's face, hands, and slipped inside the joints in her armor.

All at once she was seriously burned in several spots and winced in extreme pain.

In one fell swoop Evelyn had turned things around and shown that big and powerful spells were not always the best. Her small but nimble spell had scored a critical hit.

After getting hit once, the woman made sure to dodge all of Evelyn's attacks, and the two of them were stuck in a defensive stalemate.

'I guess I need to get a bit more aggressive. She had only used fire magic so far, so that is probably all she has. As long as I avoid that spear, she should not be able to hurt me.' Evelyn thought, psyching herself up to go on the offensive.

Turning around she faced her opponent and created several spinning wind blades filled with her heavenly flame that looked like ripsaws.

She fired her attack fast and moved her feet around quickly and began leaving gravity traps around the air. At this point she had moved far enough away from the other's battles that she was not afraid of any of them getting caught in her traps.

Continuing to fly around and attack, Evelyn slowly damaged her opponent and eventually eld her into one of her gravity traps. The woman was dragged to the ground and barely was able to keep her posture up.

'Time to finish this. Extreme press.'

Increasing the woman's wight to forty times normal, Evelyn forced her to slam into eh ground as she failed to keep herself up and dove down to finish off her incapacitated target.

Yet, Evelyn had not been the only one weaving a trap. Unlike her normal opponents who were beasts that fought more straightforwardly, this woman was a crafty human.

"Inferno Prison."

Chains of fire shot out of several glyphs in the air and large pillars of flame surround Evelyn until she was completely enclosed. Then all of the fire coalesced around her and swallowed her in a massive sphere of intense heat that would leave even most low tier tyrant rank beasts as only ash.
