Munina cowered fearfully behind Norton, her eyes full of fear.
For some reason, the aura emanating from Roland instinctively made her feel afraid.
Mr. Norton's surgery was very successful. She survived, and nine of the Lifebound Scales on her right arm remained after severe rejection.
Besides the original seven that belonged to her, there were two from Munina.
Stealing two while returning two, it's quite fair.
The seven scales that belonged to her were clearly visible, while the other two were hidden beneath her skin, known only to herself.
In the eyes of others, she was an exceptional talent in the entire Sea Demon Race, but there had been a few such Seven Scale Level geniuses in each generation, so it wasn't too surprising.
It is said that in the history of the Sea Demon Race, there had been a super genius with eight innate scales, but a Lifebound Nine Scales had never been heard of.
Of course, Munina did not want this to be known by others.
