They looked like boars, but their skin was scaled and glistening, their tusks dripping with a saliva that smoked where it hit the concrete. Their eyes were milky white, blind but somehow tracking us. Bryan was in his element, launching fireballs and laughing maniacally as he kited three of them around a giant, dead loom. “C’MON, UGLIES! RIGHT HERE!”

Immediately after, harsh light flooded in from the entrance. It seemed the heavy stone doors had been thrown wide open. Accompanied by chaotic voices. It sounded like many pack warriors had rushed into the sacred altar room. I heard countless messy footsteps, hurried and heavy, rushing toward me. Then came the incredibly noisy shouting. There were men and women, voices filled with anxiety and fear.

It spoke. It paralyzed the soldiers." His brow furrowed deeply, his eyes narrowing. “A three-headed snake? That speaks?” I nodded. “And regenerates. We shot at it. Blew its head off. It grew back like it was nothing.”

The soft rustling of leaves accompanied her as she vanished into the night, a lone figure disappearing into the darkness. ~~~~~~~~ The battlefield was a brutal, unending sea of noise and chaos. Alaric's army clashed endlessly with the Reavers, who seemed to rise from the ground itself, their numbers ceaseless. They charged in wave after wave, with an uncanny strength that Alaric could hardly comprehend. It was as if some invisible hand fed them power, ensuring they were never short of men, supplies, or the fierce determination to crush his forces.

Bram sighed. "Something old and terrifying is loose, we might have doomed the world, and the stars are broken. That about sum it up?" Before anyone could answer, a new sound cut through the silence. Hoofbeats. Distant but approaching fast. Rael’s heart leapt to his throat. They had seen no living soul since leaving the ruins, yet someone—or something, was coming for them now.

After Bruce tasted his brother's blood he got a little strength and could stand and walk on his own but, he was still a little bit weak.

As Bruce was doing that Regina began chanting again, Alan and Bruce screamed in pain. But Alan was too strong for the spell as he ran over to her and gripped her neck, the chanting stopped. " I knew your mother, she made a mistake creating your kind- an hybri, you're even worse than your vampire friends, an abomination" she said

They were shaking now, Custard more than Viex. “Oh my! It is starting. This is exciting.” Serena squealed, making me turn to her. “What do you mean? Do you know what’s wrong with them? Did they eat something bad?” “They're becoming the new royal spirits. Finally, the spirits will now be at peace!” My head turned to Nate and Prince Terrence, who both just came out of the magical doorway. Prince Terrence was regarding my two familiars with pride. “It’s the first time that I would see this happening. It’s actually an honor.”

Since a spider has 8 legs, whereas, this monster had 16 legs. The soldiers said that it was a hybrid monster known as Mustang Spider. Its colored dark green skin was as hard as steel. The soldier requested to change the route. Not even they could manage to kill it with ease. They might be able to kill it, but for sure, some of them would fall victim to the monster.. That monster was rank C+. Monsters in this rank are also known as 'Wanderer'. Because they usually wander around the place, hunting for enemies. Every time they kill their prey they become stronger. And they had the ability to summon mobs of the same race as them.

It holds the history of every supernatural being that has ever been here," she explained. "You mean each book holds a record of every monster who’s been here?" I asked, my eyes darting toward the shelves. "Yes," she replied and clicked her tongue. "But can you stop calling us monsters?
