Monke and the Rundown

"Yo, congrats on the win, even if it was a disappointment on your opponent's side." I was greeted by the lamia, whose name I remembered to be Prixais, slithering towards me.

"Hah, at least I won." I sighed and facepalmed at the same time. Seriously, how big an ego could you have to charge an enemy with full force without any prior information?

"True that!" The lamia chuckled slightly as she slithered around me, inspecting me from top to bottom. "So, you know magic, huh? For a brute-looking monster like you, I never would've thought that you could magic adeptly."

"Heh, what can I say? I love breaking down expectations placed on me." I jokingly said to her, but in my mind, I was cursing myself for showing one of my hands so early. 'I didn't think they would be watching our fight, but I dug this grave myself when I decided to show one of my magic by adding more fire to an already raging firestorm.'
