Transforming Is Not A Free Action

The King, Katsuki, Odeta and myself rushed past the dungeons and into the single corridor that led deeper into the demon's base.

On the way, we found even more people that were locked up in cages, though not all of them were nobles and they looked more dishevelled than the ones in the previous cells. That meant this operation has been going on for far longer than we thought.

The surprising thing was that all of them seemed to be unconscious but also unharmed, making me wonder just why the demons even took these people here?

Up ahead, an iron door barred our way to the next room, no doubt locked.

King Justinia did not even slow down as she slashed her sword down in an arc, completely bisecting the door into two halves before kicking it down with a foot.

We rushed past the door, finding ourselves in a sort of chamber big enough to fit a wyvern.
