POV Diego
I waited until Satsui's flames consumed everything, allowing Frey to slowly drain me of all of my mana to keep us safe from any underground attacks. I wanted to charge forward towards the source of all of those plants as soon as the flames took care of the plants, but quickly found myself unable to move forward. Frey had consumed a bit more energy than necessary, and now I was forced to stand on one knee as I was taking deep breaths to replace the mana lost.
"Are you okay?" Satsui asked as soon as the flames were cleared.
"Don't worry about me; I'm going to be fine within a minute. For now, just keep marching forward." I responded while trying to get back on my feet.
Frey: I'm sorry; I didn't expect it would be so relentless with its attack. I hoped it would've given up after the first couple of failed attempts. I never imagined I would try so many times.
