As soon as those words left Lyrian's lips, all of his creatures got amped up.
Garmr was ready to prove himself as his master's greatest beast, while Zuuc wanted to prove badly that he was the strongest!
Tao, on the other hand, was a bit more difficult to figure out for the average person, but since Lyrian could read Tao's mind, that wasn't much of a problem.
'You want to be the strongest as well... but not just to show that you're the strongest, but to earn the title, huh?' Lyrian mused, reading exactly what the Duskwing Pheon was thinking through its eyes.
Tao nodded in response, as Lyrian smirked. "Sure... if that's what helps you slay the beast."
Lyrian faced the Hydro Serpent, which was still itching to fight. "Go," he said calmly, as all of his beasts immediately darted forward with pure determination in their eyes.
