Their fight caused quite a commotion, startling the birds.
Weaving through the forest, an eagle curiously flew into the tree crowns upon seeing flocks of birds take flight flusteredly.
Unexpectedly, he saw a familiar face.
Screech—!
The giant eagle let out a screech and dove towards the two beasts entangled in a fight.
Attacked from the front and the back, added to the fact that his capabilities were inferior to the merman, the snake beastman instantly fell into a disadvantageous position. After casting one last reluctant look at the female held in a tight embrace, he found a chance to escape into the river.
Bluepool first stroked An'an's head to soothe her nerves, before covering her face properly. Only then did he look warily towards the eagle beastman who had just helped him.
"Thanks."
However, he wouldn't agree to let the eagle beastman pursue An'an simply because of this.
