A one-star difficulty hunt

It never expected that a flock of crows would come to help this human.

A strong sense of danger surged again.

Sensing that the situation was turning bad, the giant rat decided it was time to leave. It quickly tried to make its escape, preparing to leap into the sewer.

But before it could, the sound of rushing wind filled the air. Several crows dove down, surrounding it. One of them slammed heavily into the rat, sending it flying dozens of feet away.

Ethan glanced over, his eyes narrowing. He knew this was his chance.

"These crows are the real deal. When it matters, they really show up..." he muttered.

He leapt into the air, pushing his Absolute Domain to its limit. Every rat caught within its range exploded into pieces.

The rat king, now panicked, tried to flee. But suddenly, it felt an overwhelming pressure bearing down on it.

Its body froze.

It couldn't move at all.
