Chapter 240: I'll Stall It For You

Jim glanced at that gigantic monster that had a cylindrical body. In this darkness he couldn't spot all of its features quite well.

However he was certain that it shifted its gaze towards him the moment he activated his spell.

"He... noticed me," Jim said.

'Of course it did,' the old man cursed again before adding, 'fairies killed most of its kind. It has a deep grudge against you.'

"Then what?" Jim turned to the distant cave opening, "should I lure it out?"

'It won't follow you that much,' the old man sighed, 'it's tentacles are all inside that pit. Those disciples... they just are unlucky.'

"All of them?" Jim was shocked.

'They won't see what's coming to hit them... That Hector must have recognized this monster in some way. So he didn't say anything about it.'

"It's weird," Jim muttered.

'He is just trying to protect his friends, that's not weird.'
