Chapter 123: Beast 2

Digging into the gut of the beast? No gem.

The chest? Still, no gem.

Axel and Loki exchanged a silent glance, their breath visible in the cold air as they continued their gruesome task. The ground beneath them was slick with dark, sticky blood, and the metallic scent hung thick in the air, almost suffocating. Both of them had been searching the Panther beast's body with methodical precision, cutting through its flesh and bone as Commander Asher's watches had instructed. The watches indicated three possible locations for the elusive beast gem: the gut, the chest, or the skull.

So far, they'd found nothing but the beast's lifeless organs, and their patience was running thin.

Loki grunted in frustration as he tossed aside another blood-soaked organ, its rubbery texture slipping from his fingers. "This is pointless," he muttered, shaking his head.
