Teamwork
A leg with silver fur had first stepped out from the darkness. It was slim at the lower part and on its feet, there were three fingers with inch-long nails.
Next to emerge was the face, it was pointed to a certain extent. Around its black nose, six whiskers were protruding like metallic strands. Its flaxen big eyes, squinted at them like it was peering at its prey.
They noticed when its shut mouth extended into a toothy grin; then blood colored energy was oozing from its body, sending a chill to its prey.
"W-Wanderer?"
Ultima muttered in a trembling voice. It was clear from his voice and face how shocked and afraid he was at the moment. Never would he have imagined to see such a monster in this place.
He glanced at the Rat Slayer's back and thought, "So this is what he meant a while ago."
Maena and Almina also wore unbelievable faces at the moment, and it was clear that both of them were scared.
