Chrysalis

Chapter 857

[I am really sorry about that.]

[Hey, don't worry about it. You've apologised already, I'm fine, you're fine, we're all fine.]

[I mean. Sure, but I still feel bad. Is there anything I can do?]

[No, seriously, it's already healing. There's no issue here.]

Calming down the rampaging Asura bear turned out to be easier than I thought. She might be an unstoppable killing machine when she gets going, but she's still limited to the strength of her tier. Between Tiny, Crinis and myself, we manage to slow her down enough that she eventually came back to herself. I mean, I did get bitten in the process, but it's not too bad. My legs grow back fast and I'm pretty nimble on five anyway. It was the deep grooves she managed to cut into my carapace that I found more frightening. That's just with her jaws, imagine if she got a full swing with her claws?! Scary…

Once we managed to subdue the bear and she calmed down, it was time to harvest our gains, consume the Biomass and decide what to do with the grudge demon.

[They are an interesting type of demon,] Al remarked. [They aren't exactly impossible to destroy, but it is extremely difficult and involves spending far more effort than is usually considered worthwhile.]

[When I bit it I felt like I'd chomped nothing at all, then I got hit with a curse that made me feel super weak!]

[Yes, that's right. The grudge demon is quite weak, but if you 'destroy' it, then you will be hit with a sapping curse that drains your strength for a time.]

[The ultimate sacrifice play…]

[Well we may as well send this creature on its way.]

So saying, Al enveloped the little demon in a pillar of flame before detonating it and dispersing the grudge.
