Regrouping With Lizella

Damien moved swiftly, his boots barely making a sound as he re-entered the underground base.

The scent of blood and burnt metal still lingered in the air, a reminder of the slaughter he had left behind.

As he descended deeper, he extended his hand and canceled the summon on Luton. "Cancel Luton's summon."

The Stellar Slime had been with Aquila, guarding the group of people he had saved earlier with Lizella. But now, he needed it here.

"Summon Luton." With a faint pulse of Essence, a blue portal shimmered above Damien's head, and from it—Luton dropped down.

The red, gelatinous creature plopped onto his head immediately, its round, amorphous body adjusting slightly as if it had never left.

Damien let out a small sigh. "Comfortable?"

Luton jiggled in response.
