Dread
The battle began. But Liam didn't make the first move and held back to see which of the snakes went physical.
It was Viper. Not the weakest, not the strongest.
Cobra and Python began to emit dense fumes of toxic miasma from their bodies. It spread rapidly in all directions, and not even mental energy could go through them.
Viper didn't approach him, her hands turning into sharp, fang-like claws dripping with thick green poison. She smiled and waited for Liam to make his move.
Liam knew what she was doing – waiting for the clouds of miasma to overtake the entire battlefield before engaging him in battle.
Unfortunately for them, Liam had a few tricks of his own. Six different Shadow Bombs formed in his hands, which he threw a short distance away from the trio.
They exploded into dark flames and met the spread of miasma, but instead of overwhelmingly pushing it back, it simply delayed its advance.
