"Wise!" Freya screamed, standing at the edge of the ship as she watched Wise get launched into the sky.
He had been hit by the spiked tentacles with so much force that they could feel the tremor of the impact from where they stood.
Daphne had launched her shadow, but at this distance, the shadow was not strong enough to stop the beast.
Now, Daphne was staring at the scene, wide eyed with her teeth gritted, while Esme's hand was tightened on the railings, as she looked on with a worried look on her face.
Only Aofie seemed unconcerned; instead, she watched the fight as though she were at the arena.
Now that Wise was out of the way, the Kraken fixed its eyes on their ship, and then it let out a guttural sound oddly similar to laughter.
The sea guard captain was still out of it, curled up into a ball at the other end of the ship while his subordinates seemed far too terrified to face the beast.
