Alex swam away from the Fire Coral, leaving it behind to hopefully heal itself. He took a look at the 3 coral tentacles in his hand with a smile and put them into his Soul Space.
'These 3 tentacles should be enough for a single pill,' Alex thought. 'No point in harming a harmless Coral for more.'
He wanted to make a pill out of it as soon as possible, but creating a Pill Cloud in this place would be one of the easiest ways to let the soldiers know where he was hiding.
The only logical choice remaining here was to return to the Southern Continent now that he was healed and make the pill there. He also needed to see to his sister's poison.
'A week more and then I'll leave,' Alex thought. It would take some time to return, so it was better if he gathered resources for the journey back. Once he made up the plan, he continued on his search for more beasts.
