Bab 1404: Shared Misery (Part 2)

"The hunger of an Abomination, the fury of a beast, and the cruelty of a man make you who you are. Be their rider, not their steed. Don't let them rule you but don't discard any of them either. Just keep them in check, make them work for you, and unleash them against whoever killed Mirim.

"Just like I'm going to do with our current enemy first, Mirim's killer second, and Balkor once I have enough power." Scarlet said.

The Scorpicore had never forgiven the Blood Magus for killing her friends nor did she ever forget about her revenge. Scarlett would let her violent emotions simmer, but never grow cold.

"You are right. I need time to calm down and we need Vladion's help." Lith said.

"Exactly. We had an easy time against the altered Emperor Beasts because our opponents were failed prototypes. We can't afford to face the final product with an unstable mind, we need to calm down first." Scarlett gave Lith a strong tea that he accepted before going to rest.
