Mariposa knew that the enemy that is now facing her is at the level of a normal mid boss if she likens it to a dungeon boss. Psy was incredibly big and might be an easy target due to her size but the power that she holds and mastery over mental magic was too formidable. There were other guild alliance army members around her, but they were currently battling against the Foliage Soldiers that the dryad has brought with her.

"This should be of no problem as long as we are careful, right? Summon the entire hive to kill her." Mariposa stated as she also summoned two more soulbounds.

She summoned her beetle soulbound that is now in a more humanoid form as well. The beetle soulbound looked like those superheroes that children watch when they transform using a gadget. Another soulbound that Mariposa summoned is her mantis soulbound that is now in a humanoid form as well. She managed to evolve all of them to a humanoid form which helped them gain greater intelligence and battle might.

"Children, Attack Order!" The queen bee commanded as thousands of bees suddenly came out of a magic circle behind her as she is connected to the hive that is currently placed near the world tree.

The bees that the queen bee summoned had powerful stingers on each of their arms. Each of these stingers are laced with powerful poison that will cause severe paralysis that could even stop another being's heart. Each of these bees mean business as they are powerful soldier bees that guard the hive and deal with intruders should the queen command them. The queen bee also summoned some bees that could continuously fire off their stingers as projectiles.

All of these attackers charged towards Psy but the enemy dryad did not seem to be fazed. She fired off a powerful beam of mental energy that slightly disrupted the flight patterns of the soldier bees. She then created a large wall of bramble that caught the flying soldier bees while blocking the launched stingers with a psychic barrier. She even managed to find a way to counterattack by sending some of the stingers towards Mariposa.

The stingers did not reach Mariposa though as her beetle soulbound stood in front of her and created a barrier using its own energy. All the stingers turned to dust as the barrier that was created is made of a powerful electric current that the muscles of the beetle soulbound has generated. Mariposa then used a spell that summoned a flurry of spectral butterflies to try and deal damage to Psy but she was able to block them as well.

Psy's attitude of being haughty has ended when the mantis soulbound almost severed her head if not for the constant mental barrier around her. The mantis soulbound's sharp claws almost reached but it did not have the capability to destroy barriers. This, however, made an opening that Mariposa used to spread pollen all over that decreased the stats and gave random status ailments to Psy

Psy might have put up a mental barrier that protect her from direct attacks, but indirect attacks proved to be more effective. The pollen that Mariposa scattered managed to poison Psy and even lower her stats. Unlike ordinary magic that does not diminish in power when it is already cast, mental magic is heavily reliant on the intelligence stat of the user. The sudden drop of her stats made the mental barriers weaker as a result which made Mariposa smile.

"Did you really think that I have not encountered beings like you? There are incredibly powerful mental magic users even in the Insectoid Race. Unlike them, your body is not immune to the poisonous pollen that my wings can scatter. I have been scattering it ever since the fight started and it is only now taking effect. Is it because you are part plant which is why it is effective?" Mariposa stated as her invisible butterfly wings can now be clearly seen as it sparkled in the light.

On the other side of the battlefield, Ain along with Lycan have reached the position where it was reported that the team was wiped out. They did not see anything in the area except for fallen trees and branches which is why both of them have entered danger mode immediately. Their battle instincts made them face each other back-to-back as an almost silent vibration passed them.

Ain followed his battle instincts and created a powerful chi wall in front of him that shattered in an instant. Ain and Lycan were knocked back, but the latter were able to soften the blow. Lycan suddenly sensed this intense bloodlust directed at them and immediately slashed his claws forward. One would think that he would only be hitting air, but he clearly saw a being that resembled an insectoid.

"Were you able to see it?" Ain asked as he was only able to take a glimpse of their opponent.

"I saw a head that looked like a dragonfly but that was it. It suddenly turned invisible or something." Lycan replied as both of them went back-to-back again as it proved to be effective against their opponent.

"It might not be invisible. It might just be incredibly fast to the point that our eyes could not easily follow it. We can sense it in the area, but we cannot see it which is a testament that it is indeed speed incarnate. At least, we can be sure about one thing." Ain stated.

"Its defense must be trash, and its attack power is normal. If it was incredible powerful, then it would have already killed us the moment we stepped inside of its area." Lycan stated.

"Correct. Still, knowing will not really help us defeat it." Ain stated.

"I can become faster but that would need the moon to be full and I do not know if I can match its speed. Also, you might be in danger if it becomes dark as the Fae can easily see even in the dark." Lycan stated.

"I have a technique that will let me match its speed, but you need to protect me for ten minutes. Can you do that?" Ain asked.

"Can you do it a bit faster?" Lycan asked as he is not entirely sure that he can do so as the opponent might become more powerful as the fight goes on.

"I can shorten it to five but that will also cut its duration by half." Ain stated.

"Done. All we need to do is catch it or incapacitate it and then we can easily kill it." Lycan stated as he transformed his body to his werewolf form.

"Alright. Protect me." Ain stated as he suddenly went into a meditative state and a mandala briefly appeared behind him.

The enemy that they were facing suddenly sensed that something is amiss as all the bloodlust is now directed towards Ain. The enemy felt a dangerous power that is getting collected by Ain and aims to kill him before he finishes. The bloodlust emitted by the enemy was so thick that Lycan easily perceived it as he is more sensitive to such things in his werewolf form.

"Got you!" Lycan shouted as he once again slashed at air, but a faint silhouette of the enemy could now be seen.

Lycan thought that his attack would only stop the advance of the enemy, but he did not think that it would actually connect. He felt a slight resistance from his claws as if he only scratched something, but the sensation was like scratching a tree. He looked at his claws and there seems to be wood shavings on them. The attack connecting briefly showed the enemy that he was facing, and it was leshy that fused with a body of a dragonfly monster.

The Leshy Dragonfly Hybrid looked twisted, but Lycan could feel its power and twisted personality. The enemy vanished once again as it went to a state of hyper speed once again. Lycan clearly felt it as the enemy has weak defenses. He might not have seen it, but he could deduce that the enemy twisted its body to evade his claws. The enemy knew that it would get significantly damaged if it gets hit by the claws that Lycan used.

"I might be able to kill it without waiting for Ain, but I must not get too conceited." Lycan thought as he once again sensed the movement of the enemy.

Lycan stretched his claws once again to try and kill the enemy, but he did not get any resistance. The thing that Lycan touched was not the body of their enemy but a powerful sound wave that dealt damage to his hand. He felt a tingling sensation as if sound itself became blades that slashed away at his claws. One could see that his claws were now full of cuts as if it was slashed by numerous blades in different angles.
