Anastasia, not ready at all for this sudden development, cowered behind Myrtle. Myrtle herself, on the other hand, was scrambling to turn herself back to Weather Mage. Thankfully, Agaue had the insight to draw the aggro of the hobgoblins to herself, buying her precious time.

"There!"

Myrtle's shirt, apron, and skirt disappeared for a short moment before being replaced by her jacket and one piece. Her ladle vanished as well, exchanged for her staff.

"I'm ready now! Agaue! Brace yourself!"

Now, she could unleash her most powerful spells right then and there but there was a chance friendly fire was now a thing, unlike in the game. And she certainly didn't want to hurt her!

And so, she opted for the least harmful spell she had.

"Flash Freeze!"

A sudden gust of cold wind enveloped both the paladin and the hobgoblins. Not enough to kill but enough to slow or even immobilize.
