Running is not cowardice!

The Kraken's massive tentacles slammed into the ocean with tremendous force, sending a deafening roar across the waves and causing an enormous wall of water to rise, crashing down with violent intensity.

BAAAMMM! WHAAAAMMM! BAAAAAAMMM!!!

Snowflake hissed sharply, her serpentine body slithering frantically to avoid the incoming waves of water that shot toward her like razor-sharp blades.

Each wave sliced through the air, threatening to cut through anything in its path!!

Aether stood firmly on her head, his piercing gaze fixed on the Kraken—no, on Mortimer, who now seemed fully capable of controlling the monstrous creature. The Kraken moved toward them with a terrifying grace, gliding over the water's surface as if it were an extension of its being.

The beast unleashed continuous waves of ocean fury at them, its attacks relentless.

SssssssHHHH!!
