Chapter 822: 822 Explaining Humanity Pt2

The Tinnar leader looked confused, with his flat nasal opening that extended up his face fluttering open and closed as he tilted his head and seemed to lose focus on the room. 

Max could tell he was deep in thought about the possibility that humans and the Knife Ears weren't actually working together. But he couldn't determine why the region's second great evil hadn't attacked them. 

Then, he had a moment of inspiration. "You said they were like your species nanny in a way if they had actually raised humanity through your early development. Is it possible that they're just indulging your urge to attack their enemies? If they're really treating humans as children in some twisted way, they might be willing to indulge them until their curiosity is sated." 

The Koleska actually looked more horrified about that than the chances that the two species were working together.
