Chapter 152: Ash's Death

The small swamp lizard, no bigger than a wolf pup, seemed unassuming at first glance. Its muddy brown scales blended perfectly with the murky surroundings, and its small, beady eyes darted cautiously around. Its stubby legs and rounded body gave it a simple, almost harmless appearance.
