Chapter 35: Cavern, III

Elias Ayla POV:

Shock.

It wasn't a word appropriately enough to portray what I was feeling when Soo-Bin charred every bat-spiders' body with Rising Burn.

"How?!" I heard Sean gasp by my side.

"Aaa!" I screamed, startled by him and now sliding down the crater.

"Shit… Sorry, my friend!" He bowed with a mischievous grin.

"Oof!" The back of my head made contact with the solid ground.

"Who's there?" Mai's tone was heard, full of suspicion as she made her way toward me.

"Hello there," I waved elegantly towards her with a wink, not taking the effort to correct my posture, that is to say, still laying upside down on my scalp.

"Elias," She called my name while tilting her head to the side, "Pff… what's with you, what a weird one you are, haha…" She laughed at me.

The next breath, a thud was heard.

"Ah, Soo-Bin!" Haruka called out to the companion that had just awakened earlier.
