Chương 574: One Step Closer To Evolution (1)

As the fiery battle came to an end, Anna, Otiga, and Kass rushed towards Ashton, their faces etched with concern. They found him standing amidst the smoke and ashes, his breathing heavy but a triumphant smile on his face.

Kass grinned, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "I must admit, Ashton, you know how to make an entrance. Fire and all."

"Hey, big hero," Anna said, her voice laced with sarcasm. "You think you could've saved some fire for the rest of us? I didn't even get to toast a marshmallow."

Otiga playfully nudged Anna's arm. "Come on, Anna, give the guy a break. He just took down a Drakonian. I don't think anyone has ever killed one before-"

"Two," Ashton mumbled, finally smiling as the danger had been averted. "There was a smaller one in the cave. I had to take care of that as well."

"Jokes aside, are you really fine? That was quite a battle." Anna's tone softened as she looked at Ashton, concern evident in her eyes.
