"Do they even need me here?"
That question wasn't just her own opinion. It was a hard cold fact. After all, the moment the mushroom escaped from Noel's sword, Anna appeared behind the mushroom to strike it down.
This wasn't just two Apprentice Knights fighting an Advanced Level Demon. It was two Apprentice Knights bullying an Advanced Level Demon.
Anna struck the mushroom from behind with her lightning sword.
The demon tilted its body to the left and barely avoided it with its side getting pierced by the sword.
To escape, the demon released a huge amount of spores that it created a kind of smokes. If these two inhaled those spores, their body should be taken over.
However, the Saintess immediately covered them with her barrier by creating a spherical barrier that isolated them.
The spores were soon carried by the wind, so Layla released them to chase after the mushroom that was about to land on the ground.
"Noel!" Anna called him out loud while summoning a rune in front of him.
Noel recognized this rune because this was the Duplication Rune she used before. It was clear that Anna had been creating this rune before launching her attack.
Seeing this rune, Noel believed they could catch up to them. He swung his sword and released a beam of Spiritual Energy into the runes, duplicating it into eight.
Bouncing Spirit Slash.
Noel smiled as he controlled all the eight Bouncing Spirit Slashes. These eight slashes bounced from one spot to another, but because they numbered eight instead of one, they basically created a torrent that wouldn't leave anyone alive if they got swallowed into it.
The mushroom demon widened its eyes in shock as it couldn't avoid these slashes in the air. It tried to release another spore cloud as a defense mechanism.
The spore cloud would affect them at this rate, but the mushroom demon released the spore for a different purpose.
The spore might be able to grow on the Spiritual Bouncing Slash and take away its Spiritual Energy, but the blast from the spore allowed the mushroom demon to tilt its body a bit more.
It might not be able to reach the ground, but the mushroom managed to get into the best position to avoid all these slashes.
Still, Noel's attacks were not easily beaten. When it almost avoided his slashes, Noel changed the directory once again and tried to at least injure the demons instead of letting it escape unscathed.
In the end, six of the eight slashes managed to graze the mushroom, making it bleeding all over.
"Since when a mushroom has blood?" Anna furrowed her eyebrows. "We can't eat a mushroom that has blood."

"…" Noel's eyebrows twitched as he glanced at her. Obviously, the thought about cooking this mushroom was just an expression to his anger. But he never expected that Anna was serious about it. "You took it that seriously?"
"Eh?" Anna blinked a few times as she realized it was just a figure of speech. She became even more embarrassed at this point and turned everything into anger. "This mushroom bastard! I am going to kill it, slice it thinly, and dry it up in the sun."
"…" Noel was speechless while looking at this embarrassed woman going straight to the mushroom in anger.
Meanwhile, the Saintess once again couldn't comprehend these two knights. Despite facing an Advanced Level Demon, they still could make a joke, get angry, and flirt with each other. She couldn't help but think, 'What's wrong with these two?'
Of course, the two would deny the fact they were flirting at each other. Noel simply wanted to embarrass Anna while the latter tried to outsmart him in his argument. There wasn't any intention to flirt. But that was how others saw their interaction.
Since the mushroom demon had embarrassed them, Anna hurriedly chased after the mushroom as soon as they reached the ground. The lightning spared around her feet as she leaped into the mushroom with her fastest speed.
Even for an Advanced Level Demon, Anna's speed wasn't something that could be taken lightly. In just two seconds, she caught up to the mushroom demon that was already thirty meter away from her.
"Got you!" Anna smirked and sliced the mushroom.
The mushroom leaped into the air to avoid the sword, but Anna had predicted it and pointed her palm at the mushroom. She knew that the mushroom was acrobatic, so she could make him jump into the air so it couldn't avoid her attack.
Realizing that Anna had figured out his pattern, the mushroom opened its mouth, gathering a huge amount of energy.
Anna and the mushroom demon released their attacks at the same time. Anna's lightning was so fierce that it could penetrate the demon's body. But the beam coming from the mushroom mouth was different from those spores. It contained so much energy that it had the same amount of power as Anna's lightning. In fact, it could be stronger than Anna's lightning in terms of raw power.
When these two powers clashed, the beam from the mushroom overwhelmed Anna's lightning and pushed it back to Anna. However, the lightning's true power lied on its penetrating force. It pierced through the beam and pushed it back.
Ultimately, the battle ended up in a draw and the attacks caused an explosion. The Saintess immediately covered Anna with her barrier again to avoid any spore or explosion.
Meanwhile, the mushroom took the advantage of the smoke that was produced by the explosion to run away. It noticed that Anna and Noel's firepowers were greater than it expected. If it continued, he would lose against them.
Noel wouldn't allow such a thing as he caught up to them and sliced his sword. Anna also prepared to move as soon as the Saintess removed the barrier.
However, the mushroom demon only looked at them with contempt as if it had predicted everything.
"!!!" Suddenly, Noel widened his eyes as he spun his body, striking a demon that suddenly intruded the battlefield. There were more and more demons emerging from the side.
There was only one scene in his mind that could produce this situation. It was the spore smoke that was blown by the wind.
"Don't tell me, the spores?" Noel gritted his teeth, seeing many demons coming to the battlefield.
