Her eyes snapped in my direction and a myriad of emotions flickered in her eyes. Surprise, shock, fear, anger and at last, shame.

I myself was feeling a lot of different emotions at once. Fear, disgust, apprehension, understanding, acceptance and at last, a bit of happiness.

Fear because of the giant mutant alligator in front of her.

It must be more than 10 meter in length and 2 meter in height.

And she had killed it.

And not only had she killed it, she was feasting on it.

Meaning that she was like me. A fiend.

Except her teeth and claws seemed much sharper to me.

At first, I felt fear when I saw her halfway inside the alligator's body as she ate while making a lot of noise.

It was a bit disgusting as well.

If this was how I looked when I ate then I really needed to commend Raka for his loyalty for sticking together with me.

But I doubt I made such a mess when I ate my food.

Then I realized the important part.

She was just like me.

Sure, she might be a stranger to me, but at this moment I felt rather close to her.

After all, I had never seen any one else who had evolved into a 'Fiend' like me. Not even in the B&S Worldwide.

I was afraid that I would never see anyone who was like me and would be discriminated against in the future because of that.

But to find someone who is like me.

It made me very happy.

On the other hand, I had no idea what she was afraid of. Nor why she was feeling shameful all of a sudden.

She had no need to be afraid of me. If the mutant beast she was eating was killed by herself and not by someone else, then she was obviously more powerful than me.

After all, even I would lose my life if I had to face a 4th tier mutant alligator. A beast like that would definitely be far more powerful than a 4th tier abnormal.

She wiped her blood from her face with a cloth and looked apprehensively at me.

"Umm… You woke up…" she said in a nervous and timid manner and I failed to understand how such a strong person could have such a weak personality.

She started squirming on her feet and I realized that I had been staring at her for a long moment so I cleared my throat in an embarrassing manner and said "Yeah… I woke up just now."

Then I bowed in front of her "Thank you for taking care of me. I owe you my life."

"I… it's nothing." She said and I wondered if this really was the girl who saved my life back then.

'She didn't seemed so nervous earlier. What's up with her.' I thought.

'Maybe she's nervous because you caught her while eating a mutant beast. Maybe she thinks that you'll be disgusted by her because of that.'

'Is that so.' I thought and decided that it made sense.

'Perhaps the people who she lived with earlier rejected her because of this evolution.' I thought and decided that I should do something that would put her mind at ease.

I walked forward, ignoring the way she tensed and went up to the mutant alligator and bent down with some effort.

"May I join in?" I asked and before she could reply, I opened my jaw wide and took out a large chunk of the meat.

I chewed on it a few times and turned to look at her to find her eyes had become as wide as saucers and her jaw had dropped open, which looked rather scary considering her hundreds of sharp canine teeth.

'Do I look so scary as well?' I thought with some amusement.

"You… you are like me?" she asked with a dazed expression and I nodded my head.

"As far as I can tell." I said and gave a 'toothy' grin.

"You… but…" she stuttered, trying to find the right words to say but not finding it. In the end, her eyes begin to tear up, and to my horror, she sat down and started bawling like a child.

'Oh nononono… what did I do now?' I thought with fear. I was really not good at consoling girls.

'You idiot. Go pat her back and ask her what happened to her.' Lily said in my mind.

I grimaced at her words but followed her advice nonetheless.

"Are you alright?" I asked as I approached her patted her back gently.

She sobbed for a bit but slowly her sobs subsided and she nodded her head.

"I'm fine now." She said as she took out a napkin from her spatial ring and wiped her tears. "It's just that. It was the first time I've ever seen someone else beside me who has the same evolution as mine."

"Really?" I asked and she nodded in return.

"The condition to being a 'Fiend' is to defeat a high tier abnormal in the Battle Simulator. And as you can already guess, not many people truly use their mouth to do it."

"Hmm…" I nodded my head. I had already guess about the 'condition' to achieving a 'Fiend' evolution. But I had no idea about how rare a 'Fiend' must be. "Surely there other people beside you who have achieved the same evolution?" I asked and her grimace told me everything I needed to know.

'It seems like you're are a rarity huh. Who would have thought.' Lily giggled and I ignored her words.

"I've only seen two 'Fiend' in the B&S Worldwide in my entire. But both of them live in different parts of the world. You're the first ever person who…" she said and then broke down into sobs once again.

I had a feeling that for some reason, she was treated rather badly for being a 'Fiend.'

And I did not like that fact one bit.

The reason was simple.

If people treat her badly because of her being a 'Fiend', then they might treat me badly in the future as well.

It was not a good news for me.
