Chapter 225: The root

As the monstrous creature roared with fury, its massive form loomed over Nikol and Zenda, threatening to unleash its destructive power. Nikol's eyes burned with determination as he stepped forward, his heart pounding with a mixture of powerfulness and adrenaline.

"Nikol, be careful!" Zenda cried out, her voice laced with concern.

Nikol turned to face her, his face set with resolve. "Zenda, take the girls and get to safety. I'll handle this. We can't let it harm anyone else."

Zenda hesitated for a moment, torn between her instinct to protect Nikol and her responsibility to keep the girls safe. But seeing the determination in his eyes, she knew she had to trust in his abilities.

"Alright," she said, her voice quivering with worry. "But please, be careful, Nikol."

Nikol nodded, offering her a reassuring smile. "I will. Just get the girls to safety, and I'll join you soon."
