"They're just up ahead," she murmured. "About fourteen thousand Frog Fiends. Less than five hundred are old ones… the rest are hungry babies. But they're strong. And vicious."
Shin arched a brow. "Fourteen thousand? How's that even biologically possible? The Ant Beasts I fought numbered under a thousand, and ants usually reproduce faster than frogs. So why the hell—"
"It's their hatching season, Master!" Yuki cut in. "Their eggs must've hatched recently… and these bastards are born hungry for flesh. Unlike real frogs where most eggs never make it, these survive together in the swamp. One wrong move, and they'll snare you with their tongues and rip chunks of meat right off your body!"
Rip chunks of meat? Shin mused. Don't most frogs just swallow their food whole?
