Jefferson was confused. He couldn't even utter a word. Normally, when a beast died, it's crystal would surely be intact until it was taken. There was now way anyone could bypass his senses and steal the crystal! No, none was powerful enough to do so.
"Except..." He hesitated, his voice stiff as if he couldn't even believe what he was about saying "Except it was removed before the fight!"
"Removed before the fight?!.... Have you gone nuts Jefferson!" Marcus retorted. "If the crystal was removed, then what we'd have is just an ordinary beast but surely, an ordinary beast wouldn't cause this much havoc." He pointed at the destroyed buildings that were reconstructing themselves already.
"Master! You said this thing wasn't as strong as it was before right?" Jefferson turned to Hercules.
"Yea, just as you say! It's power is lacking a lot!" Hercules dropped his club on the ground as he spoke.
