"A mere human dares to come here alone? Don't worry, my King. We will handle this insolence. I will ensure this fool's head is presented to you on a platter."
The shaman's rage matched the King's, his body trembling with anger and bloodlust.
The Monkey King's ignored the shaman's statement and with a deep breath, he unleashed a deafening roar that echoed across the forest.
The sound was primal, powerful, and charged with energy, shaking the ground and reverberating through the trees.
Every monkey in the vicinity froze for a moment, their ears twitching and their fur standing on end.
Even Alex, still positioned near the base of the hill, heard the roar.
He glanced upward, wondering what it was about, but before he could fully process it, multiple fireballs hurtled toward him.
Reacting instantly, Alex leaped away, the flames crashing into the spot where he had been standing moments before.
