The art of tagging your tail between your legs
Unlike the other beasts that he had faced that far in Panthalassa, it looked at his dagger, like it was curious about it, something only the Black Corbal had done, but it was obviously scared of it. Unlike it, this beast only seemed curious and not afraid of it at all.
Its actions did not board well with Nolamine and instantly feared what they could mean.
'Does it possess some kind of intellect?'
The words only made him think less favorably about the situation he was facing. Fighting the Black Cobral was more than troublesome in itself as it formulated a strategy to fight him while keeping him away from his dagger when he fought it and facing something with such lethal weapons and more intellect was not a good idea at the least.
Since Nolamine was waiting for it to make a move and it was observing him, it got tired of waiting and lifted its tail in his direction and fired something at him.
