Chapter 540: Demands (2/2)
Aiden shook his head, pushing the heavy thoughts down with another bite he pushed into his mouth, whilst doing his best to ignore the distracting sounds coming from the system. Even without him being constantly reminded, he could feel that whilst the formation of a new ball of light had begun to form inside his Primal Core, it was far from being finished. He could tell even without the hints, that he needed to consume the entire flesh to have a chance at creating this new form.

”I don't care! You three should at least take today off to rest and recuperate! You were at the brink of death just a few hours ago!” Captain Don yelled exasperatedly at the comical sight of the girls standing at attention in front of him.
The trio, Aina and Eina the twin sisters, and their newest partner in crime, the blonde amazon, Naybeah were trying to woo the stonehearted elderly leader to send them out with the rest of the team. Though their sight was rather comical with all the bandages wrapped around them, the fact that they could stand still and present a strong front was undeniable.
'That girl…' The captain lamented, thinking about the black-haired little fairy, Galina. Her miraculous powers were only causing him more headache than ease at this point. 'The trio, feeling the weight of their mistake from yesterday, was adamant in proving themselves.
At first, they wanted to request another go at the chained-up creature but were instantly denied, not just by the old man himself, but by the rest of the team as well. Even Drake, the one that was most agitated just last night to end the life of that hideous abominable mixture of spider, demon, and wolf have since understood and come around.
He was now whistling a different tune, understanding the importance of acquiring information about this unknown world was of the utmost importance. He instantly blocked Naybeah's demands by simply warning her that Aiden wouldn't appreciate such an action.
Although most of the arguments would simply enter one of her ear and exit at the other, the thought of displeasing her chosen mate was an instant shocker, a wake-up call for the spirited girl.
With great difficulty, she eventually managed to calm her boiling blood, and take a step back and acquiesce to the silver-haired prince's request.
However, with their first request being shut down, the trio then turned towards the elderly captain and began their siege to wear down his defenses, demanding to let them go out today as well.
