Hugo didn't quite understand what William meant by living off his looks.
The number of wild beasts gathering around them was increasing, including a giant ape that stood 60 feet tall. Strangely, these creatures were eerily quiet, making no sounds other than the vibrations caused by their movements.
Normally, such a diverse group of wild beasts together would be roaring and growling.
The current silence was downright eerie!
Hugo looked around, took a deep breath, and felt a sense of foreboding.
This bizarre silence was even more terrifying than if the beasts had been loudly attacking.
"Are you an idiot?" Hugo cursed at William. His battle armor ejected two streams of air, and he flew up into the sky, trying to break through the encirclement.
In this situation, Hugo wasn't in the mood to accompany William to fulfill the bet any longer.
It was crucial to break free and save his life.
