Jonathan clenched his fist as he stared at the skull-headed monster with a deep frown.
The creature stood directly in front of the portal like an executioner guarding the only exit from a death row.
Things had just become a lot more difficult.
If they wanted to reach the portal, they had to get past that monster first. Even with his mech-suit, Jonathan had barely managed to scratch its surface.
Now that the suit was gone, he was little more than a sheep waiting to be butchered.
Biting his lip, he turned towards his only friend.
"Can you... solo it?"
After all, Aether had moved faster than anything Jonathan had ever seen. The young man had even managed to save him from that monster earlier. If someone had a chance of fighting it head-on, it would probably be him.
At least that was what Jonathan hoped.
"Bro, I barely saved your ass with a couple of tricks, and now look at that thing," Young Aether replied while pointing towards the monster.
