Nicholas and Lyle braced themselves as a large, shadowy figure emerged from the dense foliage. It was a creature unlike any they had seen before, with long, razor-sharp claws and glowing red eyes that seemed to pierce through the darkness.
The creature let out a guttural roar, its breath reeking of decay and death. Nicholas and Lyle knew they were facing a formidable opponent, one that would not be easily defeated.
The monster was obviously a Purple Core monster, and with the very forest out to get them, they had to deal with this powerful opponent quickly, lest they end up in a precarious situation.
Without hesitation, Nicholas charged at the creature, his sword flashing in the dim light. He aimed for its legs, trying to immobilize it, but the creature was quick, dodging his attacks with ease. Lyle joined the fray, his daggers slashing at the creature's sides, but its thick hide seemed impervious to their attacks.
