Chapter 323: Sudden Act

"Is everything finally over?" Francis inquired, his voice tinged with a mix of relief and uncertainty.

"Don't ask that, Francis. It's still one monster," Allen replied. "You'll give up easily if you keep saying that."

"Huft, that was quite tough," Akiyama remarked

"I didn't expect the roots to be so agile," Sharik admitted

"From the start, if Francis hadn't been ensnared by those roots, we could have avoided this entire confrontation," Zeena pointed out.

Feeling a flush of embarrassment, Francis retorted with a shout, "You!-" But then he paused, realizing he had no grounds to protest anything.
