章節 209: Instance Dungeon (5)

However, despite getting the hint from Astaroth, it wasn't like the mermen would allow Ashton to casually walk up to the maiden. Not without dying first, at least. Sven was trying his best to clear the path in front of his master, but doing so without killing them was proving to be quite a herculean task. 

Celeste would have been able to bind them using her Shadow Elementalist properties. But in order to do that, she would have to let go of the trolls first, which would have things a bit more difficult given the troll's regenerative abilities. 

Despite being held hostage by Celeste's spell, the trolls were continuously regenerating their lost limbs, which the skeletons had to slice over and over to keep them down. As much as Ashton wanted to slice the maiden up using [Wind Blades], he couldn't do it. 

The way the mermen were so eager to die by his hands, it went without saying that they would get in the way and end up dying by the blades instead.
