Pristina is handling both Basil and Pana quite well, but the addition of Ark made her have some difficulty. Compared to Ark, she is inferior in controlling the light element as Ark could easily block any low-level light spells. She had to tell her subordinates to deal with Ark separately as she cannot capture Basil if Ark is present.
Basil's dragons are already low in health but she uses her own health to actually heal them. The most broken thing about the Mother of Dragons is that the dragons that are under her command become more powerful with more damage that they take. All the dragons under her command will also have a chance to deal critical strikes.
She is also not an easy foe to deal with as she can use all the skills of the dragons that are under her. The dragons Pyro and Shock are linked to her soul which means she can use both of their dragon breaths. Basil would use Lava Dragon Breath when the angels get near and use Lightning Dragon breath when they are far.
Pana is also not laying low as he would use his trap arrows to make sure that the angels do not come near. Fortunately for Pana, he learned dark elemental skills as he is a dark elf and they could either use death elemental magic or darkness attribute magic depending on their path. Pana made sure to also have some mastery over the darkness attribute as he can use Shadow Invisibility when in darkness.
Pana's most effective skill in the fight is the use of the Darkness Net skill. All the angels that are caught by this enhanced arrow will get wrapped in a net made of darkness that weakens them. Since the angels are beings of light, they are very susceptible to any attacks that uses darkness.
The battle is not easy for Pana though as he needed to stay balanced since he is only flying using Shock's back. Shock also moves at a very quick pace which makes anyone that rides him get dizzy, but Pana has high dexterity. He could easily follow the quick movements that Shock uses in the air. They also practiced this when they are in a party which is why he is already used to it.
The combo of the lightning dragon and dark elf is a fearsome duo. The reason why the angels are not easily able to subdue them is due to Pana having full control of the surroundings. He also uses death energy when he knows that he can surely land a hit to his opponents.
Unlike the arrows enhanced with the darkness element, the arrows enhanced by the death elemental energy fly faster. These arrows also have an illusory effect which makes them uneasy to see. The angels that are not fully focused on their surroundings would get hit and receive a powerful curse.
Pana made sure that all of his arrows that are coated with death elemental energy would have the Lesser Death Curse. The Lesser Death Curse is a basic curse that are thought to dark elves that drains the life of their opponent. The maximum health it could decrease would be 5% of the maximum health but the danger is its secondary effect.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe secondary effect of the Lesser Death Curse is the fact that one cannot heal the missing five percent health instantly. One would need to cleanse the curse first before the target hit could be healed. This curse can also stack up to five times and it will then trigger the Greater Death Curse.
The Greater Death Curse instantly deals 10% of the target's maximum health. It also places the target into a state where they will get healing reduction by up to 40%. This is what made the Dark Elves be feared by others and it allowed them to survive the harshness of a judgmental society. All forests that are occupied by dark elves were usually called Cursed Forests not because the forest is cursed but due to the fact that they live there.
Pristina had to use numerous cleanses and heals to make sure that her subordinates do not fall victim to the curse. She now regrets her decision to not fully exterminate the dark elves as they are now proliferating at a vast pace. She knows that death energy is tricky to deal with as it is a higher-level energy compared to light.
"Prison of Light!" Pristina stated as she finally felt that she should not hold herself back.
Ark tried to counter the light elemental spell that Pristina did but is shocked that he cannot. It was not due to him being weak, but the other angels were also using the skill. Pristina did not cast the skill alone as her subordinates also offered their mana in the process.
The next thing that the three friends knew is that they are trapped inside a prism that is made of light. The other guild members that were helping them were isolated outside of the prism which means they cannot help them. The three of them started to panic as the space inside the prism is not big which means the dragons have limited flying space.
"This is bad." Pana stated.
"I know. Can you do something about this predicament, Ark?" Basil added.
"I can try something but I will not be able to move for five minutes once I used that skill." Ark replied and the other two knew what he was talking about.
Lilith saw them being trapped inside the prism and suddenly felt nervous at what would happen to Ark and his friends. She wanted to help them but Gabriel is getting increasingly difficult to deal with. She did not want to use excess energy to deal with Gabriel because she would fall asleep longer if she does so. If she is asleep when something happens to Ark then her revival would be for nothing.
The other guild members tried to destroy the prism but they cannot even scratch it permanently. They are able to break some part of it as it cracks like glass, but they can never fully destroy the prism walls. The prism walls will regenerate back to their original look after a few seconds.
Just as the guild members thought that they will lose, a powerful flame suddenly erupted from below. This powerful flame suddenly manifested into a large lion as it tried to swallow the light prism. A huge shock hit the light prism and the angels that created it felt the impact as they got hurt.
The angels were able to keep the prism functioning, but they could feel the backlash. They never felt something like that before as heat is closely related to the light element so they should have some immunity. The fact that the angels were heavily damaged by the flames meant that it is a pure flame that is not tainted by any type of light.
When the gigantic flaming lion vanished, a petite figure appeared next to the light prism. Soleil suddenly returned back to the fight as she is now incredibly mad. Soleil is usually seen wearing a red dress that makes her look like red riding hood but she is now wearing a fully flaming outfit.
Soleil's hooded cloak turned into an orange flaming hooded cloak. Her red goth attire turned into a crimson flaming variant while the white undershirt became white flames. Even her hair became flames as it flowed and billowed like fire.
The most notable change in Soleil is the fact that Regulus is now behind her. Regulus is no longer a red and orange flaming lion as he suddenly transformed into a flaming lion humanoid giant but only the upper half could be seen. The most notable thing is that Regulus' mane is made with deep blue flames while the rest of the body is made with white flames.
Regulus looked like a powerful avatar of flame that Soleil summoned. Soleil is currently using a special skill that she has received when she got the blessing of the Fire Elemental King which is Fire Elemental King Transformation.

Soleil has yet to fully master this skill which is why she can only maintain this form for five minutes at most but that is enough for her. Soleil made a fist using her hands and the Regulus avatar mirrored her movements. The angels could see a gigantic flaming fist coming down towards their light prism.
