"I'll handle this."
The Leader went ahead alone, warily watching the depths of the tomb passage.
The sound of flapping wings grew closer, and a completely black insect suddenly flew into the illuminated area.
Immediately after, a dense swarm of beetles, like a black cloud, surged forward. But the Leader's expression only shifted slightly before he raised his hand, a black rune flying from his palm.
When the black rune first flew out, it was a thin sheet. Upon hitting the air, it rapidly expanded, and an inky phantom suddenly pierced through the rune and emerged.
It was a giant eagle that was still growing. The tomb passage couldn't even contain its body; it could only huddle in the center with its wings curled.
However, it seemed to understand that it couldn't keep getting bigger, so after blocking the passage, it stopped growing.
The black eagle looked at the oncoming swarm and simply opened its beak slightly, a powerful gust of wind swirling out from its mouth.
