Level 10!

It took one of the trapped birds to create cracks in the ice walls to get Garan to pull back. 

He frowned, wanting to end the birds for disturbing their kisses. But then he felt his wife tap his shoulders, pulling back his attention. 

"I'm ready," she said, and he could only sigh and follow her wishes. 

The monster that had first gotten out of his coralle was naturally the strongest. It was a level 10 monster and judging from how it got out of its hold—in stark contrast to the other two who were still snugly trapped—showed how much stronger it was. 

"I will need to weaken this one a lot," he said and Althea nodded, not arrogant enough to think she knew better than her husband on this. 

And thus, Garan weakened it a bit more than others. Eh, no, it was so weakened that Garan left a pitiful 20% in its life. 

Despite this handicap though, it was in no way weak—not against a human a level lower than it was.
