Chapter 138: Logic and Empathy
Riyala slowly picked the egg up with the fork, and Jason watched curiously as she took half of it in her mouth and tore it with her sharp, jagged teeth.
For a moment, there was no reaction and Jason wondered if he hadn’t made it properly, but then Riyala’s eyes brightened and she turned to Jason with a starry gaze.
"This is amazing. T-Thank you!"
Jason smiled at that. Jason knew that Riyala’s palate would be different from a human’s, so he added a shitton of pepper to the food to try and make it hotter than normal. Thankfully, he hadn’t messed up and Riyala actually liked it.
Jason waited calmly as Riyala basically tore through the omelet. She hadn’t eaten anything for more than two days, so he could understand she was really hungry. Once she was finished, she drank down the juice and put the plate to the side respectfully. Even while eating, both Jason and Gina couldn’t help but notice how regal Riyala’s movements were. There was no doubt they were watching a princess from the way she acted.
Jason spoke once Riyala was done.
"I might be able to help you get to the world you were aiming for initially, but to do that, I’ll need to know the world’s name and the exact location where you wanted to create the dimensional tear."
Riyala frowned at that as she looked at the ground in thought. She stayed silent for a few seconds before she finally spoke.
"I’m sorry, but I don’t know the world’s name. My father just told me that I had to make it to the Cave of Broken Fangs located in the Geth Valley. It’s a sacred place for my family and we would normally go there to offer prayers to our ancestors. But I never knew there were Dimensional Tears located nearby."
