Shivren resisted fiercely as doubt crept into his mind.

    He had to escape, no matter what.

    But with the crimson moon rising and the Abyssal Claws restraining him, there was no way out.

    Kwaaaaaa—!!!

    A crimson flash rained down, baptizing Shivren from head to toe.

    The Abyssal Claws clamped down harder on him as he struggled, refusing to let go.

    The impact was inescapable. His mind grew hazy. But just as the Abyssal Claws began to retreat into the abyss once more, he timed his move and broke free.

    As he moved away, a thought crossed his mind.

    "I can escape."

    At first, he had doubted whether it was even possible to break through such overwhelming force.

    "Kiiiiyaaaaaaa!!!"

    Shivren opened his massive jaws wide and prepared to unleash his breath once more.

    The witch who had sewn his mouth shut was gone, and his stitched-up mouth had returned to normal.

    Just as he was about to release a tidal wave of venom—

    From within the sewers, Noctrynium, Serpina, and Helena strolled out leisurely.

    Their determination to never let him go was clear.

    Shivren narrowed his eyes, contemplating who to strike.

    Instead of targeting the three who had calmly stepped forward, he spewed a torrent of venom toward Valtar.

    Fiora was nowhere to be seen, and those three had already withstood his venom before.

    Just as he could use his skill again, so could they have the means to defend against it.

    Valtar, however, was an annoyance that stuck too close.
