"But—"
"If you lose control of it, then you're as likely to take out the fortress as the enemy army. You're still tired from the demonic invasion. Plus, there are two Champions in the enemy army, and an enemy sorcerer. They'll detect your spell and may counter it. Don't waste time on high rank spells until you're more talented." August bonked her on the head. "Or else you'll end up like this sorcerer is going to."
Sen grumbled and cast a supercharged fourth rank spell. A meteor shot down from the sky within seconds.
The sorcerer reacted quickly, dropping his own spell. The magic users behind him weren't as fast. While the Federation sorcerer threw up a glowing barrier, his subordinates stared at him like idiots.
