The moment mud flooded her mouth and nose, Su An'an heard a piercing shriek.
It was so far away, as if from across a bottomless abyss.
And yet so close, as if right beside her ear.
"SPLASH!"
A small, black-and-white body broke through the surface of the swamp.
Seville's Wings were seared black by the venom, the edges even beginning to char and peel away.
"Stupid woman!"
He gritted his teeth, hooking her collar with his claws, his three-and-a-half-year-old body bobbing in the mud.
He could barely keep himself afloat, but he refused to let go no matter what.
"Don't you even know how to dodge?"
Su An'an wanted to curse back at him, but she was choking on the muddy water and couldn't make a sound.
The base of the Toad King's tongue suddenly contracted, and the pulling force intensified drastically!
"CRACK."
A sickening cracking sound came from Seville's wings.
