Conditions to Reviving a Phoenix
The identity of the weird presence that Yinuo detected while setting up camp was actually a five-meter tall, three-headed dog—a Cerberus!
However, for some unknown reason, it was lying on its back, all four legs raised in the air, exposing its belly in a submission pose. "... Did you subdue it, Master?" Yinuo asked curiously.
"What? No, I didn't." But Xaga shook his head immediately. "I was merely strolling when this mutt attempted to bite me. As such, I taught it some manners for starters."
"..."
Looking closer, there were a few spots on its body that seemed to have "caved in," looking painful and all that—in the shape of a large fist. The large mutt, Cerberus, definitely took a good beating!
"But Cerberus should be living in warmer areas, like a volcanic region, and not a forest." Yinuo whispered while trying to recall things about this beast's living environment.
