From a distance, Mia, unable to contain herself, screamed upon seeing Ethan on the verge of being crushed.
She immediately charged towards him. Pale Wolf, Sherry, Eluna, and the others also rushed forward, standing in front of Ethan.
Their faces may not have shown the despair evident in Mia's, but their actions spoke volumes.
Even Komait, who was notorious for fleeing, transformed into a black dragon and took to the skies to harass the monster.
"Hey, ugly! Come chase me if you dare!" Komait taunted.
He clearly underestimated the monster's strength.
It leapt into the air, its tentacles twisting into a whip-like form, and struck Komait down, plummeting him into a large crater on the ground.
In the midst of the chaos, the often-overlooked Luke surreptitiously made his way to Komait, grabbed a large vial of Dragon Blood, and retreated to a safe distance to observe the ongoing mayhem.
