Chapter 45: Recovery
The Z-Eyes hovered over their heads as they went about preparing a meal and then quietly feasting on the end result.
After the tension from earlier, and the pain biting at their bodies, the soft and succulent taste of meat had never been more welcoming to their tongues.
This was the most they had eaten ever since entering the Z-Tower. The group had almost gone through their entire stock of meat, as the sweet savoriness of the meat made having enough an uphill battle.
Everyone feasted, even Dok-su, who ate his outside. Each of them ignoring the fact that they were gorging themselves with meat gotten from a monster.
Such things needn’t be said or thought about. The Spectors were the best source of food in the Z-Tower, and they weren’t going to pass it up because of stupid moral dilemmas or anything like that.
Once they had finally made the decision to stop eating and save what they had left, Im-hee had returned all the cooking items back to her Inventory. The stains and debris covering those items falling to the ground as they faded to smoke.
That was one way to wash the dishes.
Though they were now full and given the energy they needed to carry on, there was just one problem left.
Min-ho was the first to summon the potion Blood Burner into his hand.
It was in a narrow vial with a cork on its tip. The liquid inside was red and shimmering with a strange light reminiscent of the embers of a dying flame.
Everyone held their Blood Burner in their hands, hesitation a gross understatement of what they felt looking at the potion.
