GREED: ALL FOR WHAT? Chapter 1175 Food For Thought

?1175 Food For Thought.

He is not sure how bad the flesh of an uncooked slug would be but he is certain that it will be slimy thanks to the mucus that its previous owner produced in copious amounts due to fear at the mont of death.

He chuckled to himself. "There is probably no amount of seasoning that can make that taste good."

Then he returned to eating his delicious food. He thought that would be the end of the tantrum but he was wrong. Their guide didn't ignore the hatchling. Instead, the Sovereign of law went over to the hatchling and placated him.

"Is it that bad?"

The hatchling nodded while sniffling pitifully. He managed to speak through his tears, "It tastes very bad. Very bad. Do I still have to eat it?"

The guide used his divine sense to bring so napkins. Then he used the napkins to wipe away the tears of the snorty hatchlings as he said, "Don't worry, you don't have to eat this one if you don't like it. You can have another livestock. You can have as many as you want and as much as you want before your test. Don't worry, we have an endless source of livestock from our breeding program so you can have anything."

The hatchling cald down then. He stopped crying and looked around. Then he pointed at his cook, "Can I have her?" He asked hopefully.

That drew Legion-5's attention. He paid attention to what the answer would be. The cook is different from the livestock. She is talented and within the employ of the Supre Alliance. That ought to count for sothing.

The guide answered without hesitation, "Of course, you can have her. You can have anyone that is not part of your race. It is your right."

The hatchling beca happy imdiately. He smiled and clapped cheerfully. His reaction was the opposite of the cook's. She is a humanoid being with marine features. She has fins and gills but possesses two legs and no tail. Her eyes widened in fright and those fins of hers trembled.

She fell to her knees imdiately, "Please, spare , young master. I will make better food."

Glee appeared on the face of the hatchling as he watched the cook grovel. This is soone that amused the hatchlings a few minutes ago with knife juggling but she is to beco the target of those very knives.

The guide asked the hatchling, "What do you say? Do you want to eat her or do you want her to make better als?"

The hatchling answered with excitent and anticipation, "I want to eat her."

It is not an answer made out of malice. The hatchling made the decision to eat her because she amused him earlier.

The hatchling thought to himself, "If she is talented and can juggle knives, then she must taste good."

That innocent answer sealed the fate of the cook. Her neck was broken by the solidified divine sense of the Sovereign guide.

The guide then ordered, "Bring another cook to prepare this one for him to eat."

Legion-5 watched in disbelief as another cook was brought up. This cook got to work on preparing the previous cook as food.

He thought inwardly, "So this can happen too?"

He is not the only hatchling in disbelief. The other hatchlings didn't know that what just happened was possible. Now that they have seen it happen, they began to have their own ideas. So of them began to complain about their food too. They also demanded to eat their cooks.

Legion-5's disbelief turned into shock as he watched the cooks that slaughtered livestock a few minutes ago get slaughtered one by one. It didn't end there. A hatchling complained up to five tis and demanded to eat the cooks five tis in a row. He only tasted a little part of the prepared cooks or didn't even bother to taste it before he complained and requested for another cook to be killed.

Their guide didn't rebuke them. He gave them whatever they wanted. He did say to them, "You can have anything you want as long as it is not a mber of our race."

That emboldened the hatchlings. They wanted to see the limit of the generosity but the guide just smiled at them as he ordered for the deaths of cooks and warriors that usually fight in the arena.

Legion-5 expected the other shoe to drop at any ti. He expected so negative backlash from the excessive demands of the hatchlings but they never ca. He couldn't fathom why because he didn't know that this was a tradition.

The guides will give every hatchling whatever they want just as they too were given whatever they wanted as hatchlings. It is a tradition that must be upheld for every mber of the supre race. The fact that they are above every other race is drilled into them at this point with this tradition.

Legion-5 thought to himself in wonder, "So servants and livestock are the sa thing to supre beasts."

At one point, the hatchings demanded to kill and cook their als themselves. Their guide held down the cooks and any livestock they wanted so that the hatchlings could try to kill them.

The hatchlings could kill mortal-level beings with the blades they have access to. They are weak but the knives are very sharp. Even then, the kill was bloody. They couldn't cut through bones so they stripped the livestock of their flesh until they died of blood loss.

However, they couldn't kill mana entities no matter how hard they tried. They were just too weak. All they managed to do was torture the mana entities with several cuts which healed quickly.

That didn't surprise Legion-5. A mana entity can regenerate their whole body as long as the soul space in their head is still intact. The ti it will take depends on the power of the focal point in their mana core.
