Man, they setup the duo knight-mage perfectly for jobbing to the demon yet they just ended it like that.
I guess it makes sense and kinda setup how cocky those demons are, but eh, I guess the demons at least got a couple extra targets now.
And man, way to kill my hype for the sage in action.
I'm kinda excited to see the power ceiling for "normal" human and how they fare against the demon, and Merlin being badass for once, yet they ended it with mere barrier.
