"I'm sorry for not coming back earlier… In the chaos that ensued back then… My mate got gravely injured and I had to put all my efforts into saving her alone. Anyway, it's nice to see you again, Pengu."
After getting my fill of my friend's softness, I moved a bit to the side, taxing its entire body with an anxious look. Considering how his previous advancement required me to suck the energy that bloated him to his former size, I was quite worried that I would have to do it again. Obviously, it wasn't that I would say no to free attribute points but with part of Eve's soul inside me, I couldn't make any reckless decisions!
Yet before my worries could turn into real anxiety, with a sudden poof, Pengu's entire body turned into a mist, out of which a human-sized penguin came out.
"Dear friend, whom I met in the past,
I hope, this meeting won't be our last."
