The Demon’s Menu

With a crisp sound, the large lizard’s head that Jason had bitten off was directly chewed to pieces in that sharp mouth.

It was like an unseeded sweet melon.

The outer skin was crisp, the flesh was sweet, but inside it was a bit sour.

But the taste was not bad at all.

More importantly, there was a prompt about satiety in front of him.

[You have devoured part of the monster lizard!]

[Physical Strength, energy, and injuries have greatly recovered!]

[Satiety +20!]

[Satiety: 380]

Twenty satiety in one bite!

Jason’s eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth to take another bite of the large lizard, but the headless body of the lizard that had been bitten off was wriggling back and forth like a snake, not only breaking free from Jason’s grasp but also putting distance between them once again.

A full 10 meters away, the large lizard stopped, and then... its bitten-off head ’grew’ back.

That’s right!

It grew back!

Jason watched this scene, the light in his eyes almost turning substantial.

He once had a dream.

To have an endless supply of ’food’!

Not grand, but very down-to-earth.

Yet hard to achieve.

Because Jason knew very well his own appetite.

Ever since he awakened his ’Talent’, he has never felt ’full’.

His stomach seemed to be connected to another dimension, an endless pit.

But now!

The large lizard in front of him reminded Jason once again of his dream.

He stretched his enhanced mouth, corners reaching up to his ears, a mouthful of sharp teeth gleaming coldly in the dark, the crimson tongue sticking out, licking his upper and lower lips, stringing together fine threads of sticky saliva.

He tore off the tattered cloak from his body and tossed it aside.

"This is my battlefield!"

"Everyone, fall back!"

He spoke word by word.

Esther and two mobile squad members retreated without hesitation.

The situation with the transformed large lizard had informed them that the battlefield in front of them was definitely not something they could intervene in, even being onlookers would be a hindrance.

Given this premise, Esther and the two mobile squad members naturally did not insist.

Tap, tap-tap.

The footsteps receded.

The anthropomorphic large lizard paid them no mind at all.

It was intently watching the powerful creature of its own kind in front of it.

In its heart, confusion grew even more.

Why would such a powerful creature of its own kind protect those insect-like beings?

"We are kin!"

"Why betray us?"

"Why protect those humans?"

"Why?"

The voice of the large lizard rumbled from its throat.

"Kin?"

"No!"

"You, you are just food!"

"And I?"

"Am the predator!"

Jason swallowed the saliva that kept secreting and once again activated the Mist Concealment secret technique.

A mist with a radius of 45 meters instantly filled the entire passage, obscuring the figures of both parties.

The large lizard, having suffered a loss once before, instantly activated ’multi-eye’ mode. On its forehead and cheeks, two more pairs of eyes appeared.

Especially the pair of eyes on its forehead which once more shone with a gleaming green light, piercing directly through the mist in front of it.

But...

It was of no use!

The mist was just a simple concealment.

For Jason, the essence of this attack was stealth and hiding.

With the enhancement of [War Pattern. Prus. Griffin. Shadow Concealment Body Forging Technique], Jason normally had a ’stealth, hide’ level adjustment of +4, and at night, with the activation of [Embrace of the Night], he obtained an additional temporary ’stealth, hide’ level adjustment of +2.

The same Mist Concealment had a ’stealth, hide’ level +1 temporary adjustment as well.

From basic, to beginner, to proficient, then to master, expert, master.

Ultimately, Jason’s ’stealth, hide’ level reached beyond that of master level: Unmatched!

Even though the ’Unmatched’ level of ’stealth, hide’ didn’t have a specific textual representation, Jason, while sneaking and hiding his form, could feel that realm of moving as he wished.

The darkness was no longer an unknown to be feared.

It was his shelter.

It was as familiar to him as... breathing.

With every breath, as if by instinct.

He approached the large lizard without making a sound.

The lizard’s six eyes scanned back and forth.

It saw through the mist.

But it couldn’t see Jason’s figure.

Where?

Where?

The lizard searched, and then, it sensed a cold breeze coming from behind its head.

On reflex, it turned around, and saw that familiar mouth full of sharp teeth.

The head of the large lizard was bitten off by Jason again. He chewed greedily, the crunch, the crunching sound continuous, and the taste of melon appeared once more.

Moreover, this time Jason heeded the lesson from before. After chewing twice, he opened his mouth again and bit off the upper half of the lizard’s body.

But the lizard still escaped.

If before it was like a snake, this time it truly became one.

As Jason bit into the upper half of the lizard’s body, the lower half transformed into a strange-looking snake and swiftly slithered away into the depths of the passage.

Jason didn’t pursue.

At that moment, his mouth was stuffed with food, his mouth along with his cheeks swelling immensely, resembling a bobblehead, and he was incapable of moving as usual. He could only chew, swallow, then act.

This didn’t hinder Jason’s taste buds from discerning the ’food.’

If the head of the large lizard tasted like sweet melon, then the upper half of the body was somewhat like crispy-skinned ham.

One just needed to apply a slight force with the teeth to break open the outer layer, and inside was the meat, full of springy texture.
