Chrysalis

Chapter 852

"Have you seriously been running this entire time?"

"Yep-Yep! I don't feel right unless my legs are moving. You feel the same, yeah? You have to move! Standing still is like dying, I can't stand it! Being still is just - "

"Enough! No matter how fast you talk, I don't have enough time to sit around and get chattered to death!"

I shake my head slowly. Vibrant has been evolving into more and more of a speed demon to the point where it's getting hard to interact with her in a normal way. When every inch of her has been mutated with speed in mind, including her brain, it’s only to be expected I suppose. It just goes to show how extreme a monster can get if they allow one aspect or concept to completely take over their evolutionary path. I have no idea how fast she'll get before she's done, but I imagine it's going to be pretty damn fast. If she keeps going like this all the way to tier eight or something, I doubt most monsters would even be able to see her. Especially since her Dash Skill reached rank six.

"So, you've done your job then? No reinforcements have reached the city, none have left?"

"That's right! I've been sure to check that no demons have been able to climb up the pillar and none have climbed down! No prob!"

"What about those flying disc things? Have any of those left, any of them arrived?"

"Oh sure-sure! Heaps! But there's nothing I can do about those, right?"

"No, there isn't. You were supposed to keep track of where they went and where they came from though…"

"Whoops! Haha! I forgot about that!"

"Vibrant!"

"If you don't mind me breaking in, Eldest, I have kept track of the information that you are asking about," a nearby general spoke up.

"Yay! Thanks Emilia. I know I could count on you to keep track of this stuff. I don't have the patience, or the time. Hah! Isn't that hilarious, you'd think I'd have more time than anyone due to being so fast but I'm always thinking about going fast or running which means that I guess I'm always going fast either in my brain or with my legs or both! I suppose I'm just not thinking about anything that’s all that important. Ha! Hey Crin-Crin!"
