"And I, too, benefited from this and recovered some of my power."
"So, what's the good news?" Encouraged by Yara's confident tone, Su Zhou couldn't help but feel invigorated. He leaned over the table and met the smug Snake Spirit's gaze, asking with anticipation, "How much power did you recover? What's changed?"
Yara answered without hesitation, "I need even more blood!"
Su Zhou: "...?"
"What are you thinking, Su Zhou? At the end of the day, I'm just a snake barely thicker than your pinky. What did you expect me to do?"
Seeing Su Zhou turn his head with an expression that screamed 'a giant question mark is materializing over my head,' Yara couldn't help but shake its head. "For a long time to come, I won't have any power other than providing commentary and giving you necessary hints. And if it's a Trial I think you need to face, I won't even give you hints. All of this is for your own growth."
