I looked up as a loud roar blanketed the sky. Out of a portal came a freaking dragon! A demonized one at that! That had to be the Mage Demon’s doing. As the demon dragon dropped to the ground with a deafening boom, we turned back to go engage it. With all of us here,
“Keep it together! You are the Magic Knights of Sistina! A demon or two isn’t going to get the best of you!” The loud order of the guild master echoed through the air as several knights were pushed back by a combination of Fire and Earth magic. A wave of earth tore through the surface,

I wearily looked at the fallen form of Saki, who had just recovered from her demonizing state. Recalling that one’s mana could be used to drive the miasma from another like the Thunder Phoenix Clan’s cleansing ritual had suggested, I decided to punch her mana gates, hoping that it would produce some effect.
