"So, do you have anything else for me?" I asked with a smile, extremely careful to let not a single speck of my aura spread out of the shields. I am burning my essence, and if the old snake got to know about it, then it would be a game over for me.
I would have no fear if it had been outside, but we were in the domain of the old snake, a very powerful domain that could inform it of the slightest fluctuation; I have to be extremely careful with everything I do.
"Humph!"
It hmphed and disappeared; not melded into the domain, just disappeared, and in a couple of seconds, the domain too vanished, absorbed by the old snake, who had finally left.
I wish I could take a sigh of relief, but those expressions I had seen in the old snake's eyes before it disappeared wouldn't let me.
The greed in the Grimm's eyes seemed to have increased, and so is madness to get what it wants, and now, the old snake won't stop until it gets what it wants.
