"Lucky?" he echoed, thinking his thoughts aloud.
"You think dragging a Mutant Beast across the Beast Domain, across hundreds of kilometres and strolling in through the front gate, not just with the corpse still intact, but with not a single sign of injury either, can be explained by luck?"
Krug's grin froze on his face.
"I-I just mean…"
Beast Slayer's glare shut him up.
In actuality, he could see where Krug's reasoning came from — after all, Nick being completely unscathed and uninjured would make anyone think he couldn't have possibly obtained that Mutant Beast corpse through his own effort.
'Something about this situation doesn't add up…' Beast Slayer thought.
'There's no way that waste could have done something only veterans and talented people could do, hunting a Mutant Beast alone — unless he received external help!'
He felt like he was coming closer and closer to the real answer for this unexpected situation.
