HOW DARE YOU!!

CAW!!

When Draco heard this, he froze in surprise. He was certain it wasn't the black-gold baby crow that had cawed. Ivy and Lyraea seemed to notice it too. As they pondered the situation, the surroundings gradually darkened, as if the sun had suddenly set.

Startled, they all looked up.

"Oh heavens," Draco muttered involuntarily, his eyes wide with disbelief. Ivy and Lyraea were equally shocked.

Above them hovered a massive black flaming crow. Its size was beyond imagination, its presence suffocating.

CAW!

Its cry rang out louder and more powerful than before, leaving Draco momentarily dizzy. What have we gotten ourselves into? he wondered.

Summoning his appraisal skill, Draco analyzed the creature:

[Hellfire Crow – A descendant of the Netherworld Crow, a god-level Volkoid. Known as the opposite of the three-legged golden sun crow, another god-level Volkoid. It controls ultimate Yin Fire Energy and thrives in Yin Energy.]
