"Lucas? What is it?"

Amelia also came to an abrupt stop beside me, while Nero and Anastasia continued forward.

They were conversing about something among themselves, paying us no attention. Meanwhile, a frown wrinkled Amelia's doll-like face.

"Lucas, is something wrong?" she asked, sounding a bit more concerned this time.

However, I didn't reply.

My mind was elsewhere, making it difficult for me to give her a clear answer. Instead, I vaguely pointed in the direction of the serpent and said:

"It wasn't his whole body."

Amelia couldn't understand my words. She slightly tilted her head in confusion as the frown on her face deepened. "What?"

Without responding, I took a few steps toward the deep crater and squinted my eyes to inspect the cyan serpent's carcass.

Yeah, just as I suspected.
