Chapitre 361: Hunting (2)

"But don't beasts attack indiscriminately? They aren't just normal predators."

Alex looked over to her at this point, making sure she could hear him clearly.

"They will attack us since we are human, regardless of strength — because they are compelled to by a higher force, but when it comes to other beasts it is different. It's just like any predator-prey relationship in nature."

"The stronger one is the predator, the weaker one is prey."

Mira listened to Alex's explanation intently, but she had almost entirely blanked out everything he said about predator-prey blah blah blah…

Because there was one thing that stuck in her mind since she heard it.

"Compelled by a higher force to attack us!??"

Alex could only look at her helplessly and redirect her focus back onto the actual task at hand.

"I'll tell you about it in more detail later, right now we need to focus!"

Minutes turned into hours as the tension grew heavier.
