The Monster Domain [19]

BZZZ!

The Night Reaver’s presence spread through the world like a Divine, no, a descent of the Profane.

Silence. Deafening, absolute silence.

They dared not move.

Vaelin Duskwhisper and Garrick the Red were not the best that their various races could offer, but both were battle-hardened warriors, veterans that had soaked their blades in the blood of beasts and monsters.

With their supernatural senses, in one look, they could tell that this towering monster was just a level 15.

And yet, yet… they felt like they were stuck in a quagmire.

The aura of this monster was profane, suffocating.

It seemed to curl around their necks like the body of a Python, crushing their windpipe, taking the breath out of them.

It felt like looking at the Devil himself.

Vaelin and Garrick didn’t speak. They didn’t need to.

Their eyes met, and then…

They moved.

WHOOSH!
