Amon had remained behind, and it was only of course that he did—he was responsible for dealing with that terror.
It wasn't a being the others could see without dying.
The monster's mere presence was enough to squash them all into a paste.
Even the ground it walked on became no more.
Each step reduced everything in its surroundings to nearly nothing, slowly, deliberately so, becoming worse the closer it got to him.
Its every breath felt like guttural roars, so powerful that it seemed to come from the very Earth itself.
Whatever this being was, Emir knew not of it.
He only knew that it was a Behemoth, his knowledge from the 'novel' half complete as always.
Amon didn't know either.
His documented fights were limited to monsters in the Tyrant rank.
While he had definitely fought Behemoths before, it hadn't been on Earth.
It must have been somewhere else in the vast universe.
