Mage taskforce VS Killer Mantis!
The Mantis let out a high-pitched scream as it was pushed back by the mages' combined attacks. The initiative belonged to them now, and Toku focused on the breeze blowing in their faces and willed it to gain strength and turn against their enemy, to weaken it further. Wind Slash seemed to be more effective than the previous attacks, and was made even stronger by Guy's spell. With speed on his side, Toku prepared to unleash a repeat performance on the Mantis.
He had just finished when the beast screamed again and sent a Shock Wave towards the group, pushing them back in turn. Pain flared across Toku's nerves—thankfully, not nearly as severe as he had experienced in other battles—and he looked around himself to check that the other members of the taskforce were not injured.
