857 The end of the legend

"If you're saving someone, do it properly!"

SPLASH!

Stefan heard Kristina's annoyed voice before he landed in the water along with the severed tentacle. Her Mace was strong enough to sever the tentacle. Fortunately, Stefan dodged the tentacle before it could land on him underwater. 

Stefan immediately resurfaced, floating in the water. As soon as he did, the Kraken unleashed another piercing shriek. Stefan and everyone who heard of it winced in pain. 

"Ugh… damn it!" Kristina covered her ears, gazing at the monster just right beside Stefan. She could almost see the sound waves as the ground she was standing on shook. If this hurt her from this distance, she could imagine the damage Stefan had been enduring since the beginning.
