The Drowned King roared.
The sound shook the remaining ruins violently while waves exploded outward across the flooded battlefield.
Its anger had clearly reached the limit.
The Boss Monster immediately raised one massive foot and stomped downward toward Eleanor, intending to crush her before she could recover.
But Avery moved first.
Water burst beneath her feet as she appeared beside Eleanor instantly and pulled her away from the impact zone. The stomp landed a split second later, causing the ground to collapse inward while shattered stone and water erupted high into the air.
Avery quickly brought Eleanor toward Alice.
"Heal her immediately," Avery said.
Alice wasted no time. Serene mana wrapped around Eleanor's body as healing energy surged into her wounds.
The Drowned King immediately turned toward them and started advancing.
But before it could reach them, Stoneward intercepted it.
