Multiple spells were cast in rapid succession, each one heading straight toward the enemies with overwhelming force.
The hobgoblins reacted immediately, fear flashing across their faces once again.
But before the attacks could reach them—
THUMP!
The boss moved. With a single step forward, the [Hellish Hobgoblin] intercepted everything.
It blocked the fireball head-on, raised its body to shield the others from the lightning, and swung its massive bat to shatter the incoming ice spikes before they could make contact.
Leon's eyes narrowed.
'Damn… it's protecting them.'
He had expected to thin out the weaker enemies first while dealing with the boss separately.
The boss seemed to be arrogant, but it wasn't going to let them die easily.
Leon shifted his stance slightly, preparing to engage directly.
But then—
RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
The ground began to shake again. This time though, it wasn't from his skill.
