The remaining four bears hesitated, their primitive intelligence recognising the threat despite their rage.
Moon didn't give them time to regroup.
He slammed his staff into the ground. Earth magic surged through the pavement, and multiple constructs erupted from beneath.
Stone pillars that rose and curved inward like grasping fingers, restricting the bears' movements and pinning them in place.
Moon then raised his staff, fire gathering at its tip, preparing to finish them, before a guttural noise interrupted him.
ROAR!!!
A powerful beast bellowed with rage. Its roar shook the earth itself, ripping across the air through the street like thunder, stunning everyone who heard it.
The sound was different from the others. It was deeper, more primal, carrying a menace that made Moon's instincts scream danger.
The sound reverberated through his chest, making his heart skip a beat for a brief moment.
Moon's eyes darted toward the source.
