Styx slammed the two small translucent shields he summoned on one of the mantises before them, crushing its head into a mass of broken exoskeleton, brain matter, and mucous.
Addie also took care of the smaller mantises using her blade-like magic attack.

[Leader Styx, Addie, there are five hoppers around forty meters ahead. One is a jeweled one, so be careful.]
Hoppers were insect-type beasts that looked like giant grasshoppers. They were categorized as medium-sized beasts and similar to the wolverns. When one evolved, its size would double, and a crystal-like coat would appear on its wings. The coating glistened like diamonds as if they were an ornament that clung to their wings, thus the 'jeweled' name.
