"Stay back, your wound would only get worse. Let me handle this." Aria said, stretching her hand towards the beast.
Whoosh!
'Light arrows.' Almost immediately, three radiant arrows appeared in front of her before shooting at the dog with great speed.
Bark!
The dog barked at the incoming arrows, instinctively pausing its steps.
