'Just great, as if the situation wasn't bad enough.' Jett thought as he watched in irritation while the octopus coated its entire body with a thick layer of Aura. The glow pulsed in the water like a heartbeat, distorting the currents around it. Rey's face showed the same disbelief.
They both knew what this meant. In WARBOUND, monsters using Aura wasn't new, but it only happened much later in the game. Mid-bosses in the early stages barely had the intelligence to form Aura shells, let alone maintain one this stable. Seeing it now felt completely out of place.
Rey:- "Snap out of it, Rey." Jett's tone turned sharp as he analyzed the faint hue of the octopus's Aura. "Judging from the color, it just broke into Master rank. Early Master, to be precise. What rank are you in?"
Rey grit his teeth. "Late Intermediate. What about you?"
Jett gave an awkward grin.
Jett:- "Late Master."
Rey froze.
Rey:- "What!? Since when? Is that why you sucked at mana control?"
