Chapter 144: B2: C44: Found You
“I think that should do it,” Zarian said, shutting the grimoire with an echoing thunk, the spectral chains rattling.
“I’m hungry,” Para said, this time speaking from Zarian’s stomach. She had formed a wide, sharp-tooth mouth there.
Zarian blinked down at the mouth on his stomach. “Huh, that’s honestly one of the freakiest flesh transmutations I’ve seen from you. I guess we should feed the beast.”
“I thought you would find this impressive,” Para said through the mouth-stomach.
Looking over himself, Zarian noticed he’d lost some muscle mass. This usually happened when they’d gone days without eating. He wasn’t exactly sure if it was because of his own ravenous hunger or if a small portion of Para was eating him alive to maintain herself.
Unlike most people who would find that horrifying, Zarian took it all in stride. In fact, they should show this trick off to the others, especially Gilbert.
Para stitched his stomach back to normal and dropped piles of food for them both from the pocket dimension. Zarian tore apart his boxed meals, especially the meaty ones. They were hot, steamy, and decently tasty. The cooks from the top gourmet kitchen were quite excellent as a temporary measure.
Para used tentacles and clawing arms covered in mouths to ravage corpse after corpse of beasts, spies, and monsters. She enjoyed the spies the most, taking her time with the human flesh and bones.
Zarian should find more high-quality humans to feed her. He sensed Para was still a little sad that she hadn’t gotten to gorge on the terrorist paladins as much as she wanted.
