Fleeing The Drake

 "This guy is relentless!" Alros yelled, dodging another vine heading his way. Normally, he would have outspeed the monster, but with his wings screaming in pain, he could not hope to fly faster than his current pace.

 'Still,' he turned around for a brief moment before firing a large Fireball, infused with demonic mana.

 The attack seem to cause the monster to hesitate before dodging. Apparently, it's instinct told him that such attack could harm him.

 'This is good, but hitting it would be hard, not to mention my objective is to flee, not fight,' he thought to himself before dodging another green beam.

As try to fly faster, the pain in his intensified, forcing him to slowly descend.

 'I should go into the system space, but who knows what will happen if the monster get it?' the best case scenario would be the monster leaving after failing to sense him. The worst case would be the destruction of the crystal, which will lead to his demise.
