The moment its tissue was sliced, the Serpent of Misfortune tensed its fist, but then quickly realized that it had dedicated its soul and shouldn't show disrespect to Ange. Thus, it immediately turned furiously toward Negris, redirecting its anger.
After glaring at Negris, it felt that this was also not quite right since it was not Negris who had sliced its tissue. Hence, it squeezed out an awkward smile.
This caused its facial expression to become very weird, a mix of anger, laughter, and embarrassment. Negris was utterly confused and thought it was frightened, quickly starting to explain:
"The tissue has not continued to grow, probably lacking growth factors. Merely Holy Essence Liquid is no longer sufficient; we need to find what it specifically requires for growth. Ange is preparing to use a comparative method to try, and you? What do you usually eat to grow so big?"
