The cracking intensified, and everyone's attention was fixed on the emerging creature. Suddenly, a spray of egg juices erupted, catching Maro, Garnt, and Gundo off guard. Slimy and stinky, they exchanged surprised glances. Unami, having dodged the unexpected shower, smirked, "Luck was on my side this time!"
Gundo was on the verge of gagging, but she managed to stay calm for a second imagining Garnt's face and his naked body.
Ignoring the mess, they redirected their focus to the cracked egg. A reptilian eye peeked through, casting an eerie sensation. Rona, having returned with a container of insects, exclaimed, "Look! It's definitely the type of animal we fought inside that cave!"
Even Garnt was convinced at this point, that nothing was abnormal and this egg indeed belonged to that reptile they killed in the cave. He felt regret but he knew that's just how things worked, so instead of being sad he decided to take care of it.
