Erin lifted her hand from the Eternal Lake, stepped back half a pace, and handed the battlefield over to Wu Chang.
The Hel in front of her, in terms of raw strength, was close to what Erin had been when she had just ascended to a Powerful Angel. She knew Wu Chang's strength—he might have a hard time winning, but he wouldn't suffer a major loss—so she stayed to the side to support.
Erin was calm about Wu Chang stepping in, but He Yi beside them was watching with a deep frown.
Even though he hadn't grasped any Divinity and hadn't undergone Awakening of the Power of Root, by combat intuition alone he could tell that the Hel before them was nothing like Garm, who'd been blocking the doorway.
Facing Garm, all he'd felt was pressure—he'd judged that Garm had the Ability to threaten his Life, and if he went all out, relying on the Tyrant's performance, he might not be unable to fight it.
