Arabel, Esma, and her doppelganger quickly repaired the damage on the barrier. Soon, the Storm Anomaly itself ceased to be a serious threat to them.
However, the main concern was the nurous beasts that were trying to break through the barrier. So of them succeeded, but they were only faced with the inevitable death from the deadly arrows of Rachel, who from the very beginning of the battle did not miss.
While everyone was making efforts, Lucinda, hovering in the center of the do and exuding light, carefully watched what was happening, ready to help in case of ergency.
But, assessing the situation and seeing how events were developing, she ca to the conclusion:
"It seems that my intervention is not required."
When Arabel asked her to open the second Access Portal and co back, Lucinda not only agreed, but also decided to take Aliyah's place.
Firstly, she was interested in seeing with her own eyes what the so-called Anomalies look like, in which the seeds of the law will soon ripen.
Secondly, she wanted to be with her sisters and only help them if absolutely necessary.
Yes, Lucinda intended to help only when it was really needed.
She didn't want to interfere in the process, allowing Arabel and the others to gain experience and grow up.
"Only by facing difficulties can they not only gain strength, but also temper their will and character."
Considering that Arabel and Idan were the Guild leaders, this so-called Disaster presented a great opportunity to test their abilities and leadership qualities.
As for the Anomaly, Lucinda was impressed, but not much.
"The anomaly is not strong enough to pose a threat to creatures of Golden rank and above. But its size is really impressive."
Lucinda was equally impressed by Rachel and Nathan's abilities, analyzing them.
"The Path of the Bow combined with the mysterious Path of cultivation of Earthlings — this woman looks impressive and quite dangerous."
"As for the Giant... Despite his lack of mobility, his body looks sturdy and powerful."
In the form of a Titan, Nathan's prominent muscles beca even more noticeable, and incredible power could be felt in them.
"Obviously, this is so kind of bloodline that combines the sa mysterious Path of cultivation of Earthlings," Lucinda concluded.
Over ti, as the Awakened Ones finished combing the city, starting from its borders, Arabel, Esma, and her doppelganger began to reduce the size of the barrier. As the do grew smaller, their control over it increased, and fewer and fewer beasts found weak spots and could get inside.
Eventually, the barrier beca so strong that no beast could overco it.
As soon as the last residents passed through the portal, Lucinda was the first to return to the Kingdom and imdiately went to Grayvale City to move her portal there and resu the evacuation process.
"I take it you won't stop there and continue helping the remaining cities?" asked Rachel, descending from the sky, spreading her wings and hiding her bow.
"Yes, we're going to help anyone we can reach," Arabel replied without hesitation. Then, looking at Rachel, Nathan, and the mbers of the Titan Guild, she couldn't help but ask:
"And you? What are your plans?"
The help sent by Darkia was truly valuable.
Arabel couldn't imagine how she would have coped with everything they had done without their support.
Knowing that she had to save several more cities from destruction, she hoped that Rachel and the others would continue to help her.
Rachel and Nathan exchanged glances, understanding each other's intentions without words. Then they looked at all their subordinates, noting that they were ready to follow any decision they made.
"Do you still need our help?" Rachel asked Arabel.
She and her husband, along with the mbers of their Guild, ca here not only on Darkia's instructions, but also out of a sincere desire to help the residents of the dood cities.
They had the ans, but there was no way to help the cities that were on the verge of destruction. This circumstance deterred them from active actions.
At the sa ti, the Kingdom Guild had the necessary way to help, but it lacked the hands to do so.
By joining forces, they have already proved that they are capable of saving many lives. Therefore, they were ready to continue their rescue mission together.
"We really need your help!" exclaid Arabel enthusiastically.
Rachel and Nathan smiled and replied:
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to the next city!"
"Wonderful!" exclaid Arabel, hearing their agreent, and a bright smile played on her face. The male half of the Guild, including Nathan, froze, as if srized by her smile, which contrasted sharply with the cold and indifferent gaze.
"Mari," — Arabel called out to Es's doppelganger.
"Rift," ca her command.
Mari, understanding the order, transford into a Snow-white fox under the gaze of those present.
Everyone, including Rachel, froze in place, unable to take their eyes off this miracle. Especially her husband, who was even more shocked when he watched one of the charming Valkyries transform into an equally cute and already familiar fox.
Spinning elegantly, Mari opened a rift, and amid gasps of surprise, it connected to another rift, forming a portal.
"Please enter," Arabel said, stepping through the portal first.
"Hehe," Esma, laughing at the reaction of Rachel, Nathan, and the other mbers of their Guild, followed her.
Mari, in the form of a fox, tilted her head, trying to understand why these people were so surprised.
Still in a state of shock, Rachel, Nathan, and the rest of the Titan Guild mbers stepped through the portal one by one before the ice barrier collapsed and found themselves in the next flooded city.
"Nice work Whitey," — they heard Arabel's voice as they exited the portal. She was gently scratching the fur of another Snow-white fox, which was happily chirping, enjoying the attention.
When everyone went through the portal, Marie ca out last, and the portal closed behind her.
After completing her task, Mari took on Esma's form again and stood next to her.
"How?" Rachel and Nathan were surprised, unable to take their eyes off Mari, trying to figure out who she was.
Then they turned their eyes to Whitey, as if waiting to see who she would transform into.
But to their disappointnt, Whitey didn't have the ability to take on other forms.
After receiving enough attention, Whitey opened the rift and jumped inside, heading to the next city on the list.
"Well, shall we get started?" — Arabel asked, turning to the others, and began organizing the evacuation of the next city.
