"That has to be Bil!" Jash shouted.
But Bolton extended his arm to stop Jash from running in close. "Just wait. If Bil voluntarily went in, then he must have a plan to get out… I would guess."
The battlefield around the vein cobra was by far the most devastating, but it had been entirely caused by the boss's spastic tantrum. If it weren't for the beast's twitching belly, the party would be admiring the destructive power of the cobra.
… K-Kch… C-Crunch…
Where the cobra's stomach met its throat, small cracks began to form on the cobra's somewhat metallic scales.
K-Kch… Crunch! Crunch… Thud.
A longsword broke through the scales and slashed the corpse's throat wide open. After struggling, someone was finally able to slip out of the cobra's gullet.
"Bil!" Jash and Nelphy shouted in unison, racing toward the open-bellied carcass.
