Ouroboros cackled even louder. The poison lake surged creating mayhem. Everything in here was his to command.The entire area was his domain and it was clear that he held the advantage right now.
Elina continued attacking him with everything she had but the snake was completely overpowered. The poison fumes were slowly starting to get to her.
Ellora was in no better state. She blocked every single attack from the vicious monstrous creature but the poisonous atmosphere was wearing her out as well.
Kaelthorn did not even bother to stand and fight anymore. Before his energy completely ran out, he decided to get the hell out of there. He overcharged himself and burst with speed as he hurriedly used two of the crumbling rocks to make it back to the other side.
"Little lord, I hope to see you back on the outside." He smirked before he disappeared from the floor, quickly climbing back up the dungeon layers to get the hell out of here.
Ouroboros tried his best to stop him by lashing out at him but it was of no use. Kaelthorn’s skill level was simply superior. Perhaps if he had used that to actually put up a fight and worked as a team with Ellora, they wouldn’t be in this position in the first place.
Ouroboros screeched in rage at this. "COWARD!" the monster bellowed, his voice thick with venom and wrath. His tendrils lashed wildly, slamming into the walls and floor, sending chunks of corrupted stone flying. "You dare flee in the middle of my ascension?! I will find you and dissolve you even if you run to the ends of this world!"
But Kaelthorn was already long gone. The fury of Ouroboros turned blistering. His bloated form pulsed with erratic energy, the tumors along his spine throbbing violently, leaking more of that glowing sludge into the poison lake. The entire chamber shook.
While the mad hideous creature was still distracted, Damon made a decision and sent a message to Ellora. "Get out now."
Ellora stared at him in shock. "My lord, we cannot teleport in here. He will not let the both of us-"
"You don’t have to worry about me. I am only talking about you. Get out of here right now." Damon urged her once again.
Ellora froze. Her blood barrier flickered as her concentration wavered, but her eyes never left Damon’s. "But—" she tried again. "You’ll die if I leave you now. I can still fight. I can—"
"Ellora." Damon commanded this time. "Leave. Right now. This is an order."
The blood witch’s heart clenched. She looked around, the walls collapsing, Elina barely standing, the lake rising higher with every breath the monster took.
Ellora’s jaw trembled. For a moment, she looked like she might disobey. But then she bit her lip, hard enough to draw blood, and closed her eyes. Her hand moved in a sharp rune, faster than thought, and her form began to glow with a deep crimson light.
