Chapter 9: Sword, Magic, and Despair
The Troll King's body began to emit a thick, black aura, his eyes glowing a blood-red as if consumed by pure rage. His appearance was terrifying, enough to inflict a fear status on anyone who looked at him.
"Ugh, what is this? I... I can't move." I struggled to will my body into action, but I was frozen in place.
Glancing over, I saw Lyra and Freya rooted to the ground as well. Lyra clutched an unconscious Freya, her face pale with terror.
And then, something completely unexpected happened.

A notification appeared, explaining the transformation of the Troll King.
"Th-this can't be happening!" Envi's voice was filled with disbelief.
