It wasn’t exactly what they expected to hear from it, but they could tell that the monster’s deep, hoarse and bone-chilling tone is mocking them. Everyone was shaking and froze for few seconds before they snapped. There was a clear boundary of strength between it and them in regards to everything they had.
Most of them thought that they finally trapped the enemy, with its inactivity, they thought that the monster had come to the realization that it is useless to protest, but that wasn’t the case. It is too late to judge the result as the monster resigns from stationary and began to move. The cement crackles and their magics were easily extinguished. In a single swing, the flames vanquished. It was unlike any strength they had seen before.
