Two of them for him to deal with huh? This wasn't looking good. Four were fighting with Kasus and Serene and three were on Jared. This wasn't looking good at all. Sure Elim could handle himself, but the others maybe not so much. Well, maybe not Kasus anyway. As Jared fought his three, getting aid from a reindeer, a man with a pick axe, and the small Frost Golem Elim was fighting two of them by himself. The Spear did indeed seem to be the best weapon to use on four legged beasts, but now two were around him, one behind and one in front. It took a couple of moments to transform his weapon as he thought of trying for a weapon that could deal with flanking opponents, precious moments he didn't want to waste whilst surrounded by two opponents, wolves especially. So instead he tried for a different approach. With an arcane word chanted, flames suddenly burst to life around his spear, licking and moving about the surface. After that, Elim began to spin the spear quickly, in a few moments having what appeared to be a ring of fire in his hands as he span the spear quickly, the wolves seemed to back up at first. Unfortunately these were not normal beasts and thus not afraid of fire. They were more likely just looking for an opening as soon both of them lunged. Just what Elim was waiting for. He ducked low, spinning the spear above his head. The flame covered spear-head slashed one wolf as the other was slammed by the end of it as he ducked beneath their lunges, essentially focusing on counterattacks for now as both wolves fell backwards. He took this moment and, with his own lunge, stabbed the wolf that got slashed by the flaming spear head first, plunging the spear deep in as it vanished in the same eldritch, as Elim didn't know what it was, mist that the other Heartless vanished in. There was a neat benefit to not having to worry about a corpse. While yes, no meat or pelts could be salvaged, in combat he didn't have to worry about pulling his spear from the carcass, which was useful as the other wolf had quickly regained its balance and tried to lunge for Elim's throat now. Unfortunately it did not work. Elim held up his spear to parry, the creature biting upon it now, but being forced back as the fire on his spear burned the creature when it bit. A swift kick to the side of its head knocked it backwards a small bit and let Elim use the momentum of the kick to spin and plant the kicking foot on the ground behind him. This gave the blue magus enough distance that, with a shout, allowed him to plunge the spear straight into the creature's head at a diagonal angle, the spear sticking right through it and into the ground. It had been a close call, Elim nearly getting hit, but he had a good amount of experience fighting wolves before, as they were pretty common in the wilds of his world. He wondered though, if they went to other worlds, how long he could use that card with things being like his own world. Well... he could cross that bridge when they came to it. For now, there were six more wolves to deal with.
