Overwhelming Presence

The group of five froggies continued to traverse the forest, their heads swiveling to take in the astonishing sight of the towering trees around them. Confusion etched across their amphibian features as they struggled to comprehend how these already sizable trees had grown even bigger and longer since their initial encounter.

After a few minutes of walking, the froggies finally caught sight of Shantal. The moment they spotted her, they wasted no time and quickly advanced towards her location. As they entered her zone of influence, Fionna remained poised, biding her time.

With the froggies now within 18 meters of her, Fionna sprung into action, immediately invoking her skill, the "Fire Cemetery Mana Zone." This ability extended over a vast area, measuring 33 meters in length and spanning at least 18 meters in width, forming a formidable barrier of fiery power that threatened to engulf her approaching foes.

The ground beneath them underwent a startling transformation, as it slowly took on the appearance of a lava-filled volcanic terrain, complete with eerie coffins and foreboding cross signs. The sight sent shivers down the spines of the five froggies, prompting them to leap into the air in a desperate attempt to evade what they perceived as a lethal skill.

Shantal couldn't help but smirk at their reaction. "Oh, how the tables have turned, froggies," she taunted. "Afraid? Hahaha, you brought this upon yourselves." Her voice dripped with satisfaction as she reveled in the irony of the situation.

With a swift gesture, she cast another spell, invoking the "Hell Cry Chain." A multitude of dark red chains materialized, and Fionna deftly assumed control over each one. She directed the chains toward the five froggies, ensnaring them and binding them in the form of a cross.

Unable to mount a defense in mid-air, the froggies were left with limited options. The chains securely encircled them, leaving them suspended and bound in the crimson embrace, unable to escape or retaliate.

With a mix of gratitude and finality, Shantal addressed the group of froggies. "Thank you for bringing me to this point," she uttered, her voice resolute. She then unleashed her potent "Bazooka Inferno" spell upon the five froggies.

The moment she cast this formidable spell, a colossal blast ensued, unleashing a devastating wave of force that surged through the area.

Anything caught in its path faced certain ruin, and the powerful impact wreaked havoc upon the surrounding landscape. Even the trees, despite their enhanced size due to Fionna's earth magic, were not spared, further emphasizing the cataclysmic power of this magical onslaught.

In response to the impending danger, Fionna's instincts kicked in, and she rapidly conjured a protective barrier of ice to shield herself from the destructive force.

As the dust settled and the cacophony of the explosion subsided, Fionna realized that her confrontation with the froggies was far from over. Her momentary triumph was short-lived as she discovered that the rest of the frog creatures had closed in on her location. Their numbers had grown to a staggering 33, an overwhelming presence that had surrounded her.

Some of the frogs perched in the trees, while others lurked on the ground. Fionna couldn't help but wonder how they had all congregated so swiftly and efficiently. Was there some innate connection or shared skill among them that facilitated their reunion, rendering her earlier efforts to separate them futile? These questions raced through her mind as she assessed the dire situation she now found herself in.

As the chaotic scene unfolded, it was the tree-dwelling frogs that made the first move. With an astonishing display of coordination, they conjured a colossal bubble and hurled it in my direction before I could react. Simultaneously, some of the ground-dwelling frogs had closed in on me with alarming speed, delivering powerful punches that left me reeling.

In the midst of this dire situation, I instinctively tapped into the depths of my magical abilities. I called upon the Ice Forest Mana Zone, a majestic area spanning an impressive 33 meters in length and a minimum of 18 meters in width. This enchanted space resembled a miniature forest, but every element within it, from the trees to the grass and rocks, was crafted from shimmering ice. With a focused wave of my hand, I froze the aggressive frogs attempting to strike me, turning them into icy statues.

However, my moment of respite was short-lived, as a deafening explosion rocked the vicinity. The enormous bubbles that had been hurtling toward me burst with an incredible force, sending shockwaves rippling through the air.

In the aftermath of this powerful detonation, I found myself in a predicament akin to being buried alive, the sheer strength of this explosion eclipsing even the might of my trusty Bazooka Inferno.

Miraculously, I clung to consciousness after enduring that devastating attack, and I owe my survival to the Ice Forest Mana Zone skill I had summoned. However, despite narrowly escaping death, I found myself utterly immobilized, the agony coursing through my body too excruciating to bear.
