The Mask

"I give up..." Alas muttered as he pushed the plate away, "This is too much."

They went through several stages, and this time they got some raw meat. It might not have been a serious problem for some, but for Alas, it was nothing more difficult than this.

"Ern... Can you eat this for me?" Erza asked, "At this rate, I'm about to throw up. I can't take it anymore."

"Huh, wimps, okay, I'll do it. Give your pieces to me." Ern began to eat.

It was hard for Wain, too, but he wouldn't give up.

'Okay, let's go.' Wain said inwardly as he shoved a piece of meat into his mouth.

He was able to do it, albeit with difficulty. It wasn't a problem for Ern, but he was already full and was eating through effort. Every bite gave him a gag reflex, but he suppressed it.

"Shit! How much more is left? I hope the next portion is the finale!" Ern exclaimed as he swallowed the last bite.

"I agree." Wain nodded.
