With the addition of humans joining the fray, the already chaotic battle of beasts became far more hectic.
The timing was absolutely the worst for the beasts that were already embroiled with each other, and Evelyn had just used her gravity field to slow them all down. Under the added pressure of her magic, it became much harder for them to evade of block the humans' attacks.
And to make matters even worse, as the humans were coming from above the increased gravity actually strengthened their heavier attacks by quite a bit.
Evelyn watched as dozens of beasts were hit by the spells cast by humans. This was her first time seeing so many humans attack at once, and it was clear why they were feared.
Their coordination was impeccable, with multiple spells targeting one opponent and focusing on weaknesses that the beasts had.
'Damn it! They had to show up right now.'
Faced with a new threat, Evelyn had to make a difficult decision and cut off her gravity magic.
While the other beasts were certainly not her friends, and many had been trying to kill her. The humans were far greater enemies in Evelyn's eyes, and she would rather not be inhibiting the other beasts in this situation.
Once her magic was shut off the other beasts were able to regain their bearings quickly, and the majority of hostilities amongst each other ceased to deal with the humans.
Pretty much all beasts that lived in the wilds had a hate for humans. They would constantly come into their homes and kill them. And while other beasts may do the same, the cruelty that humans showed often had them loathed by any beasts that knew of them.
Magic continued to fly all around, and now that she was no longer the center of attention Evelyn tried to slip away.
She certainly had no love for humans. Not after all they had taken form her in both her lives. But she was not going to throw herself into an unnecessary fight when she was already exhausted from everything that had happened.
Yet as she was leaving, one of the humans caught her attention.
Out of the corner of her eye she spotted a spell that she could never forget.
Two large hands made of stone had popped out of the side of the gorge's wall and were crushing one of the flying dolphins.
At first Evelyn figured it was just another human using the same spell. She knew that humans had created standardized magic to use amongst themselves to increase their power.
But still she could not help the knocking in her chest and the fire in her mind that compelled her to make sure.
Surely, she figured that the man who had taken down her parents was dead. The group of other humans that had attacked clearly won the battle in the research facility.
Slowly and carefully as to not draw attention to herself, Evelyn approached and attempted to look under the man's cloak. And as he moved around the area manipulating the earth in the around him that Evelyn caught a glimpse of his face.
It was now horribly scarred unlike before, and his left leg was actually made of stone. But she could never forget his face.
'So, he managed to survive after all. I already killed the researcher, but of them all, he was the second highest on my list.'
Immediately any thoughts of escape left Evelyn's mind. With blind rage overtaking her.
Not only was this man here, but all the other people with him were part of the same organization which had been the cause of her new family's death.
'I do not know how he lived but it is time I rectify that.'
Without any care for stealth or how much magical energy she had, Evelyn burst into a blaze with her heavenly flame and charged towards Uriah, the man that had crushed her mother and father.
"Stone circle."
Uriah seeing the incoming ball of flame, cast a defensive spell and molded the wall of rock around him into a thick barrier.
However, Evelyn, in her fury did not even bother to try and stop her charge. Plowing right through the stone headfirst.
Her heavenly flames easily melted through it, and the bulwark of wind she had conjured in front of her cushioned the blow.
"Obsidian Lance."
When she broke through Evelyn found herself immediately begin attacked by Uriah's next spell.
'Extreme Press.'
To counter it Evelyn brought out her gravity field and hit the lance made of earth with the maximum amount of gravity she could.
The mass of rock could not maintain its trajectory under such pressure and plummeted into the side of the gorge. Where it caved in deeply before crumpling away.
'Die!'
Having caught the man off guard, Evelyn gave him no time to cast another spell. She opened up her mouth where she had coalesced her heavenly flame and fired it out in a beam.
To protect himself, Uriah who did not have enough time to cast a spell activated the wristband he had on his left arm and created a gleaming silver shield in front of him.
The beam of Evelyn's crimson fire hit it with enough force to blow the man back against the wall of the gorge, and his shield that should have been able to block even the attacks from peak awakened rank beasts began to melt.
His skin started to flack away and turn to ash. The flames were quickly consuming him, and it seemed that Evelyn would be able to successfully kill the man she held responsible for her parent's death.
However, before she turned the man into nothing but a charred corpse, a large sphere of water crashed down on him and protected him.
A huge eruption of steam followed and covered the area in a dense layer of fog that made it difficult to see.
'Out of the way.'
Whipping up a gust of wind Evelyn blew the fog away and looked towards the man she wanted to kill.
'He is still alive.'
Grinding her peak, Evelyn was frustrated that her vengeance was blocked. All that currently filled her mind was taking out the man that had ruined the happiness she had achieved in her second life after living through hell in her first.
Unfortunately, the one that had protected him was now standing in Evelyn's way, and it was clear he was no pushover.
Floating in the air was a large jellyfish made of water and standing on top of it was a man with long azure hair and a stupidly handsome face.
He had positioned himself in front of Evelyn and was wearing a confident smile.
"Uriah, it looks like you managed to gain the ire of a pretty strong beast. What did you do to get on this inexplicably power low tier awakened beast's bad side?" The azure haired man said while smirking down at the fallen and injured Uriah.
"Sir, I did nothing to it. It just attacked me out of the blue. But I felt it. The unknown power from the reports. That is the owl that has our divine item."
