Chaos persisted – tufts of feathers flying as fangs ripped into the crow’s frame, and it was forced to tactfully retreat, or be lost to Belial’s fervent zeal. It dropped the pumpkin as well, fleeing the scene with less plumage, and the peryton proudly snagged at the dispersed gourd pieces, bringing it back over to the Sword. He crouched to pat the companion and scratch the top of his head, finding a treat in his pocket as Asta explained – snorting all the while. “Fair enough.”
As far as the deviant nature of the new gourds went, he could only shrug. “Much. They seemed to be void infected as well.” The purplish denizens gave off those clues anyway. “Have you seen any other flora or fauna variants around?” He knew Danta had ensured some portions of the Grounds were fully protected from the monstrous proportions, but it didn’t mean the whole of the region was free of them. Nor did the Sword, as the Monster Hunters Guildmaster, want to miss anything that could be potentially journaled and shared.
Rising back into his former height and stature, he watched as the Ancient had no need of protection from the molten heat. “Do you need help?”
