Syl and the other two returned with a small group of fortified rank beasts, followed by a bigger mob of toughened stage beasts. Overall, there were probably a combined number of about a hundred monsters, 10 fortified and 90 toughened.
"Whoa…"
The three gave them awkward smiles as they entered the barrier.
Judging by the three's reactions, they didn't really mean for the mob to get this big (they had no idea what they did), but they didn't look injured, nor did they get too panicked, so it was safe to assume this amount could be handled. Maybe.
Normally, this number of monsters would've intimidated the heck out of him. However, Finn smirked and stretched his arms, and the others also sparkled.
With the protection and the buff—the reassurance—given by the barrier alone gave an injection of bravery. Not carelessness, but courage.
