That aberration had one unmistakable feature: an crimson chain wreathed in flames was bound around its body.
Like a snake, the chain slowly slithered across its skin.
Just as Monchi declared that he would use Words of Power to break through the restraints, the crimson chain seemed to sense something. It suddenly raised its "snake head," lashed its tail, and stretched dozens of meters through thin air, instantly arriving at the center of the field.
