Chapter 800: Number Two

Ryu watched on coldly as the griffin's approached, his body not moving in the slightest. He didn't feel like he needed to. Or, more accurately, he just didn't want to. Giving an enemy any sort of leg up, even if it was just a superficial psychological win, wasn't like Ryu in the slightest. In fact, he would rather suffer than allow such a thing when it came to himself, let alone when it came to someone he wanted to protect. 

In truth, Ryu didn't know what the purpose of the Griffins were for coming here. However, he didn't think it was a coincidence at all. The place he was in now was completely uninhabited and was no less barren than the original land he had come across the first time he came to the Moon World in this life. There was no way they would come here without a purpose.
