"Clatter, clatter, clatter!"
The rapid hoofbeats drew nearer and nearer to Tyler, accompanied by a bright light.
The source of the light was none other than Moto-chan, the warhorse, holding a luminous magic stone in its mouth!
"Come on——! Moto-chan——!"
Tyler pushed himself to run towards Moto-chan, but the Crimson Serpent King was hot on his heels!
Just as the Crimson Serpent King was about to launch another attack, Moto-chan arrived in the nick of time. Tyler leaped onto the horse, and Moto-chan galloped away at full speed, narrowly evading the serpent's enormous maw!
"Moto-chan! You're alive!"
Tyler emotionally embraced the warhorse's neck, and Moto-chan responded with a spirited neigh.
Tyler could hardly believe he had the chance to fight alongside Moto-chan again.
Now that Moto-chan had appeared, it meant that the horse had managed to shake off the Poison Blade Rat King, opening up the possibility for a new tactic.
"Moto-chan! To the left!"
