[center]It seemed to become a fight solely between Battler against the duo of Erika and Dlanor, and maybe Robin included in Erika's side if he decided to jump in once more. Knowing Erika, she was going to try every single possible Truth to see if she could stop Battler's attempt in pulling this game into a draw.

[color=LightBlue]"Dlanor, now!"[/color]

With the combination of Erika and Robin's words, Dlanor was already on the move, a short distance away from Battler as she was ready to land merciless strikes onto him.
