Chapter 85: Cooking A Monster Alive (1/2)
”W-Woah!”
Lawrend still hadn't gotten used to being lifted like this. Aezel lifted him several meters off the ground before she slowly accelerated forward.
The trees passed by Lawrend's vision like a blur. It only took a while before he heard a monster roar from the front.
”Is that a monkey!?”
Lawrend looked in shock at the enormous-sized monkey far in front of them. It was thumping its chest as it roared. It was like King K*ng from his past life's memories.
”That's a monkey! I won't eat that!”
Lawrend shouted at Aezel. He wouldn't be able to stomach it if he ate it.
”You said you'll eat anything?”
Aezel looked at Lawrend like he was some sort of an idiot.
”I'm taking it back!”
Lawrend shouted in reply. That monkey is humanoid in shape. If he ate it, he would always have nightmares about it.
”Well, whatever.”
Aezel shrugged her shoulders, and they passed the enormous monkey. They flew for a dozen seconds before an enormous lion with three heads appeared before them.
”Will you eat that?”
Aezel asked him as they continued flying towards it.
”Yes. That's much better.”
Lawrend nodded his head. Even though it was a lion, it was much better than eating a humanoid creature.
”Fufufu. Eat well. I need you well-fed.”
Aezel dropped Lawrend to the ground carefully.
As for the three-headed lion, it turned one of its heads toward her. That head immediately widened its eyes in shock when it saw her. Without looking back, the lion turned around and ran.
”You're not escaping me!”
Aezel shouted as she pointed her finger at the lion. An arc of red lightning as thick as her finger shot towards it.
BOOM!
The red lightning crawled through the whole body of the lion and cooked it inside out. When it finally reached its brain, it fried it. The lion's body stood still for a few seconds before it gave out with a thud.
'S-Sh*t! It was a good idea I stopped Olgar and Elena.'
Lawrend thought to himself in alarm. That lion looked like it was as powerful as a High Mage, but it was easily taken down by her. Not to mention, she was even injured!
”Fufufu. Impressed already?”
Aezel laughed seeing Lawrend looking at her in disbelief.
Lawrend nodded his head repeatedly. That was awesome! He can't wait for the time when he can do it too.
”A-Actually, I'm also a Lightning Mage.”
Lawrend said to her with a stutter.
”Do you want me to teach you?”
Aezel asked Lawrend with an amused smile on her face. She guessed what he wanted from the way he's looking at her.
”Y-Yes, please!”
Lawrend bowed to her nervously. After all, she was a demon. He didn't know if she would agree to teach a human like him.
”Fufu. Why not? It will make our journey interesting while it lasts.”
Aezel laughed and agreed. She thinks that it's better than just walking monotonously.
”Thank you!”
