The Floating Bubble Monsters

William's top priority right now was to reach the set of long stairs, climb them fast, and arrive at the safe zone at the top. He recalled how that despicable merchant spoke freely up there, only shushing him when they were walking in the city. That meant till reaching the stairs, every other place here was dangerous.

*Screech!* *Screech!* *Screech!*

Just before he'd use his technique fully for five times, William had to abruptly stop. In front of him, and next to the stairs that weren't far away from him, he saw weird shadows taking shape there.

"F*ck it! It's the Floating Bubble monsters!!!"

William instantly recognised the enemies that kept appearing in increasing numbers up front, blocking his path towards the stairs. These weren't spirits as everyone thought, they were just monsters.
