It felt like an eternity as Ryu, and the others threaded the Coral Drake's lair, yet no sign of the exit. The den was gigantic to house hundreds of Coral Drakes, and the room to maneuver was limited to none.
Whenever their group found themselves stuck with no Coral-free ground to step upon, they used their skill to blink or teleport to a spot they saw were barren.
Ryu didn't have any skills like that, but his beast side gave him enough strength and power to jump and balance his body on a tiny empty ground to the next while the Coral Drake just watched them in amusement.
Maybe Seraphina was just pulling their legs, and the Coral Drakes wouldn't attack even if they destroyed some corals along the way. But none of them was willing to take that risk. Inside the reefs were eggs. The Coral Drakes eggs and some already hatched.
