บท 736: Mercy?

"Distant kin... Are you the ones we were told to slaughter?"

Skullius' face turned comical, as he turned to Maxim instinctively, who also turned to him, as if suspecting that he was somehow in league with the Cluster beasts.

Distant kin?

Slaughter?

What was going on?

Within each other's eyes, past the question of what the beast's statement meant, Skullius and Maxim could see the confusion glowing within.

Did this Cluster beast just speak to them in the Known Language?

Skullius had never experienced this before with Cluster beasts, not even with Generals.

But... wait. What about the Great Mane Mountain Ape from the Tremur Forest?

...!

Was this creature using something like [Greater Communication] to communicate with them?

Different from Skullius and Maxim however, Tallo didn't seem quite as surprised by this.

He actively gave a response after walking towards the silver-furred rider.
