Chapter 41: Here, Let Me Teach You How to Train Your Ice Dragon

Soon after Madam Zhao's departure, a group of short, strange things wiggled out from a dark patch of farm soil.

"Has the snake left?"

"Most probably."

"Thank goodness."

"Screw your thank goodness! I told you to not simply eat those low-level workers. Before this, we ate a few supervisors in the farm in the span of months, which we would then disguise as themselves and resign after. No one came to investigate! Once you started eating these workers, the suspicion came almost immediately. Pretending to resign doesn't even work here; someone's going to come and check once no one is working here."

"We nearly finished the supervisors, though. Couldn't we eat anyone anymore in the future?"

"How are we going to grow fast by not eating humans? We have to continue, but we need to leave this place. There was something as terrifying as a snake demon right here! It doesn't seem to be suitable for us to stay here anymore."
