บท 234: What else (8)

            Luke wanted to fiddle with the red crystal for a while longer and think about what tamed monster he should sacrifice. Still, he couldn't ask his dad or mom to summon them whenever possible and then repeat the process, it was quite the gruesome thing to do and while his father was military and knew that he shouldn't treat monsters like pets, his mother was different. The red crystal also only allowed the owner to do that, so he had to wait until he returned.

"Our hometown was destroyed a long time ago and became a nest of monsters, so I don't think that even Sylah would be stupid enough to head there," Shalia explained. "... Trying to understand how idiots think is difficult, so I really can't tell."

"Well, you probably can sense his mana if we get close, so let's get going," Luke said.
