Elf question

[tremorlaine]

Here are the specifics:

Player A is level 9
Player B is level 8 and elf

Player A is fighting a monster with another monster wandered in. She asks for help and player B offers his help because he figures he will win due to getting 2 levels from elf after they defeat both monsters. The monsters were boosted up to a point where Player A played Magic Lamp to poof one of them. They are now winning the combat and I want to smack Player B. Alas we cannot stop the combat so Player A wins.

Does Player B get one level or two since he helped against two monster and technically they were both defeated?

I ruled that he only gets one since Player A single-handedly defeated one of them with the Magic Lamp. What made me shake my head in disgust is that Player A had the Magic Lamp on the table in plain sight.

An Elf gets a Level for every Monster he helps kill. The word "kill" is on the card. Since only one Monster was killed, and the other defeated by being sent away, the Elf only gets one Level.
