"You can't eat them."
Sharena shrugged, showing a very regretful look.
Apollo nodded. "Is that so? That's true, you have a deep relationship with them..."
"It's not so."
Sharena frowned and explained.
"First of all, they have a physical body. My tattoo is actually a portal to another dimension. I don't know where they usually stay. When I need them, I can call them out from the dimension."
"If they die, I will retrieve their carcasses. Even if they are torn into pieces, they can still reforge their bodies."
"Anyway they can be eaten, but only for once."
"They will enter your stomach and be digested by you. Their bodies will become a part of your body, such as the wounds you heal, the new hair you grow, the increase in your height and weight, and so on."
"And if I choose to retrieve the carcasses, I will extract the parts that originally belonged to them from your body."
