'What should I ask of master this time?'
Nyxia the owl, one of Alex's subordinates, was right now wondering about her reward. She didn't know when Alex was going to arrive, but she knew that he was probably on his way.
Yes, beasts are capable of thinking once they reach a certain level, and Nyxia, just like the other three beasts under Alex's command, was pretty strong.
She still couldn't speak because she needed to be stronger than she was right now to do so, but her words were understood by Alex—all that she needed. She served under Alex and Alex only, after all.
'Should I ask for that thing called cake again? Maybe ask for 50 of them?!' She giggled on the inside as she imagined herself lying in a pool of cakes. Just how wonderful would that be?
