Okay.
This was a lot of people.
Akiol wasn't a stranger to fighting massively outnumbered. His adventure in A World's Legacy was proof of this. However, this was Third Stage enemies. Many with strange and powerful abilities. Considering the west's usage of items to give them an advantage, Akiol was positive he was about to get hit with a wave of debuffs.
However, this was also a fantastic outcome. With this many Third Stage players coming to hunt him specifically there should be no one targeting Mira or Givale.
Unsheathing Stars Akiol pointed it upwards while carrying his voice with mana, "All this effort, for one!"
The sky rippled and split apart into a direct portal to outer space. Through this ripped piece of sky a meteor began to descend, flames on its surface. A lot of the players were suddenly taken aback. Your Guiding Hand's confident tone wavered slightly, but he remained steadfast for the sake of the players, "Defensive Skills, now!"
