Happy Days That Would No Longer Return [Part 2]

"Fate has allowed you to live, so you must live."

Those were the words that he said to me back then, and without even caring that I was a Monster, he treated my injury.

There were many times when I wished that he had just killed me and taken my Beast Core. The war that happened that night haunted me to the present day, always making me wonder why I lived when my entire colony perished.

The first thing I did the day after I recovered was to scavenge the battlefield, looking for Beast Cores to eat.

My Natural Instinct urged me to rummage through the countless dead, looking for the cores that would allow me to become stronger. Although tens of thousands of corpses were all over the place, I was only able to get over a hundred cores in total.

Whenever we killed a monster, the first thing we target is our opponent's Beast Core, so we can eat it.
