The moment the three monster guards saw us approaching, they immediately sauntered forward to attack.
"Let me handle this. You two go in first. I will follow after I kill these monsters," Lancelot said before he touched the stone near him and made a long and huge axe out of it.
"You sure?" Lucia asked.
Lancelot smirked. "Don't underestimate me, young princess."
Lucia's eyes widened. "Young princess? How did you—"
"Go now," Lancelot cut her off before he leaped to face the monsters head on.
I didn't waste any time and pulled Lucia towards the entrance of Nerissa's den. As expected, it was the part of the River of Flames with the most fire. A norma person would surely not take it. But because I can manipulate fire and I'm protecting Lucia, we are able to successfully infiltrate it.
"Do you feel hot or burning?" I asked Lucia to make sure.
