Ryan had already made his decision.
He had to save Beatrice.
It didn't matter what would happen next. For the moment, it was the only thing he could do.
But Mirian's arrows were already in flight.
Even if she knew who the demon in front of Ryan was... she simply had no reason to want to help.
I mean, she is a demon after all. The logical thing for any adventurer is to finish one off as soon as they encounter it. And that same logic applies to demons.
Those were the thoughts Ryan was processing as quickly as he possibly could.
But the arrows were not aimed at him; they were aimed at Beatrice.
Just as Ryan was about to activate his defensive skill.
A barrier appeared, surrounding both him and Beatrice.
No one present could understand what was happening.
Or who had made the barrier appear.
The last thing the other adventurers noticed was the heroines entering the fray with that attack.
