Xinya was the last to make it back to the boathouse after being metally scarred by John the butcher shop owner. He had just spent the last couple of hours arms deep in monster guts and was completely numb to everything now.
When they first started and John gave him another demonstration on what to do, Xinya was sure he could deal with it, but that was before he actually had to handle the monster himself. The action of cutting a monster open, watching the blood ooze from it, feeling a monster's insides with his own hands, was disturbing.
The first five times, made Xinya shiver just thinking about having to do it again, but on his seventh one it became second nature to him. He stopped associating the monsters as living things but as things that could be eaten. It was a coping mechanism, but with these realistic graphics nobody could fault him for having one.
