Chapter 320: Battle II

Alex looked around at the massive beasts that had appeared and surrounded them at all sides. Then he looked at Layla who was also looking at him with the gaze that meant 'What should we do?'

After processing hundreds of thoughts in his head in almost an instant, he decided to keep Layla away from harm. Or her being around him would greatly limit him in the battle that's about to ensue since he would want to look out for her too to protect her from the attacks of the beasts.

Then since he understood that he could now surprisingly speak underwater, he said to her "I will keep you away from harm. I don't want you to be injured. And don't worry about me. Now, a force that would envelop your body would appear very soon. When it does, do not try to resist it"

Layla who was surprised by what Alex said nodded her head. She had understood not to get in Alex's way since he was strong enough to handle things thrown at him.

"Alright." She said.
