"As for the rest..." the prince manifested his second beast.
The wolverine that emerged was massive. Its fur had an earthy tone and its body seemed to partially merge with the ground beneath its paws. Crystals and minerals sprouted from its skin like natural armor, each one catching and reflecting the Qilin's light.
"Watch," Julius commanded his beast.
The wolverine approached the hydra's corpse and, to Ren's surprise, began to devour it systematically. But something was weird, the pieces it swallowed seemed to disappear into some kind of internal space.
"It has a special cavity," the prince explained upon seeing Ren's expression. "It can store objects without digesting them. Quite useful for transporting things... or eliminating evidence."
Ren's mushrooms pulsed with fascination while observing the wolverine methodically consume the hydra's remains. When it finished, the beast simply vanished, returning to Julius's body.
