Greem was awoken with a start by a noisy clamor.
Outside of the cave, a commotion had broken out. Even the Rock Snake, who was supposed to guard the cave entrance, had poked half of its body out and was ferociously attacking something, only blocking off the entrance with its thick tail.
When Greem packed everything and walked out from the cave, the battle outside had ended.
Within the not so spacious cave, seven broken Lava Hound bodies were scattered on the ground and red-hot half-molten lava was running freely everywhere. For the Lava Hounds, if rocks were their body, then the molten lava would be their blood.
Since there was so much of their ‘blood’ flowing everywhere, the chances of their survival were rather slim!
Why were there so many Lava Hounds? Could the small cave Greem occupied be their nest?
A bunch of questions appeared in Greem’s mind, but very soon, he rejected them.
Yesterday, when he was looking for a place as his temporary shelter, Greem had put in quite a lot of effort. He had avoided most of the areas of activity for Fire element creatures. Under such circumstances, why was he still attacked by this pack of Lava Hounds? Also, the order he gave the Rock Snake was to defend and fight back only when it was under attack. This meant that it was the pack of Lava Hounds who had initiated the attack!
