"Attack from both sides, aim for the concentration of the stripes. That's his weak spot. Ready?"
"Yes." Wain nodded, and a sword appeared in his hand.
The lizard looked menacingly at them and opened its mouth wide.
"Attack!" Osvald shouted, and they jumped aside.
Boom.
A massive beam of energy rained down on where they stood, a deafening explosion. A wide crater was left of it, with Wain and Osvald standing on the edge.
"Is this normal? A few more of these, and it will destroy half the forest." Wain eyed the crater warily. The size and power of the attack were a surprise to him.
"I warned you. Even though he didn't absorb Soul Pearl, he found a clean source of energy emanating from Soul Pearl somewhere. Though he won't be hard to defeat, he is faster, stronger, and has more energy than any other creature in the same Chronicle. Let's go!" Osvald uttered and ran at the monster.
Wain nodded and followed him.
