Things see to plan for the first few minutes until the second chimera broke loose Then the third and a fourth…and a fifth

The chie serpent reached e of swipes, sweeps and strikes, each of which created divots and splintered the ground

Hardened battle instincts and decades of fighting knowledge th and control I had over this body I ducked, rolled and weaved through the spiked whip, but I was just barely holding on even before the other two chiis did his best to occupy the boielding and shotgun-wielding chi onto chimeras as soon as their strikes round fro their aetheric essence to regenerate the wounds accrued throughout this little ga

Every so often, the rooun fired off so his part

“Watch out!” Regis suddenly called

My gaze immediately landed on the bow chimera poised to launch three arrows before I whirled around and dove toward the sword chied to avoid the sword just as I heard the deadly howls of the arrows Following the swing’s ripped the chimera’s sword arm and tossed the chimera over my shoulder in line with the three arrows

I watched in excite of hope manifested in me, a blur whizzed by and the blunt end of the other chiuard the bloith s

“Arthur!” I heard Regis yell as I flew back and hit the ith such force that I felt so more than just the wall crack behindunderneath

Both ainst the blow andmy body, I pried the broken arrow I had saved withthe aetheric essence

My right arm was shattered beyond use but I was now able to ed to pull myself up off the floor

The rooo back grew stronger I weighed ure out the best way for me to survive when a beastly roar captured my attention

The sword chiainst each other

The whip and spear chimera realized that I was still alive and raced toward o, I would’ve accepted this as my death, but now, a plan had solidified in my head

My eyes locked onto the whip chi friend and with a sharp breath, I dashed toward it

The chi its skeletal whip as it continued its charge toward e, I turned sharply toin the process—and headed toward the spear chimera

I only have one shot at this

Not wanting its prey to get away, the first chimera struck its whip at me with a sharp ‘crack’

Now!

I raisedthe bone shaft and blocked the tail end of the whip before it spun around the bone arrow

Corasp, I dove down just below the spear chi and used the whip as a tripwire

The spear chimera toppled forward and crashed into the wall in a thunderous crash

Unfortunately forered roar, the chi blow as its foot pressed down my chest when another bellow echoed just beside us

Success!

Speary charged relentlessly and lunged its spear into its ielding friend’s shoulder Soon, the two chist thee of un chiun but each attack made a crater in the wall or floor of the hallway I was just thankful that Regis was able to blind it enough so it wouldn’t be too e of that threat

“Regis! Keep its eyes covered but steer its gun towardaway from Speary and Whippy’s scuffle

Unlike before, my companion didn’t question the coun chih to keep its vision un at Regis as zipping around its face

“Now!” I roared

This ti it up until the very last moment, I leaped out of the way just as the chi the bullets rain down on Whippy and Speary

I gritted through the pain that shot up ht before h both the spear and whip chi limp

The plan had worked better than I expected

A feral roar ripped out fro the attention of the arrow and sword chiarded each other for a moment before their beady eyes landed on me

The sword chimera was less than ten feet away by the time we reached the door and I had activated the aether runes to allow our escape

“No!” I roared, watching the spear chih the portal as the sword chimera pulled it back

“We need to close the door!” Regis shouted, shooting out ofup and shutting the large metal door close
