Just as she did so, from behind the downed soldiers, Amaris saw as one of the remaining soldiers pointed towards her with a loaded arbalest. There was little time for Amaris to even think on what to do. Instead, she instinctively used the third chain that was just being formed from the blood the others absorbed to block the incoming bolt, with a quick swipe, immediately stopping her dash as she jumped backwards surprised, only for her to see a musketeer among the remaining soldiers, about to press the trigger. This time, there wouldn't be enough time to react. Fortunately, before she could feel the impact of the projectile, a loud bang suddenly echoed as the soldier aiming at her fell to the ground after Carmen shot at him. Alerted by Carmen's shout regarding the remaining two Musketeers, Amaris immediately turned her attention towards them. The musketeers would soon start shooting again and with only one way for them to escape the inferno the garrison was quickly turning into, they had little options besides standing their ground and fighting their way to the exit. Fortunately, before the remaining two musketeers could take aim, Linceleste charged towards them with her horse, swinging her sword at one of them, using the momentum of her charge. Taking advantage of Linceleste's brutal charge, which would likely leave the remaining musketeer distracted, Amaris immediately sent one of her chains towards the remaining musketeer, aiming to pierce his chest before it quickly returned to her. [color=silver]"Thank you, Linceleste~ Let me have the group behind, I'll prevent them from rushing towards the exit and blocking our way."[/color] Amaris shouted to Linceleste with an amused smile, her attention focused almost entirely on the group of soldiers even as Linceleste dashed past the musketeers with her horse. As soon as she finished speaking, she crouched, touching the ground and making all three of her chains burrow into the ground. Not even a second after they disappeared, a giant obelisk, made of black iron and bound by chains erupted right in the middle of the group of soldiers, impaling those who were unfortunate enough to be on the center and knocking back the others who were nearby, likely avoiding any of them from attacking Linceleste in retaliation. Using the opening her Obelisk would likely buy for her, Amaris immediately ran towards the group, summoning a single chain as she ran towards the group of soldiers, shooting her chain to impale whoever was the nearest soldier who wasn't knocked down or impaled by her obelisk.
