Chapter 99: Buggy vessel
‘Everything ok?’ the main body asked.
He was holding a half-formed sickle made of teal mana in one hand. Clearly, he hadn’t remained idle, practicing the affinity fusion while waiting.
‘I will be, as soon as you get Micky off me.’ the clone replied.
A moment later the bird lifted its talon, letting the bug move about, getting a better feel of his body.
‘It’s a little on the smaller side…’ he couldn’t help but notice.
Naturally, this wasn’t his first time possessing a beast at Orange, or even Red. Since their size was often correlated with their grade, some of his past incarnations must’ve been tinier. That said, he’d never had an adult from Remior available for comparison before. Standing up, his new vessel struggled to reach the main body’s knees. Even the crow was larger than he was.
As for his limbs – Percy was already accustomed to having an extra pair. A cursory buzz of his wings revealed they still worked too, which was a welcome bonus. It was a miracle they’d survived the rough handling.
‘How long have I been out anyway?’ he asked the original.
‘All night. The sun should be up soon.’ the main body replied.
