Despite the restraining effect on the cage, the taming process hadn't gone as smoothly as Nox had expected.
The Emberhawk still showed signs of defiance. Its gaze was filled with intense anger as it stared at Nox.
Though humans couldn't hear them, beasts could perfectly understand human language. The Emberhawk had long realized the human's intention—to murder it and extract its elemental core.
So it fought with all its might to break out of the hellish steel cage. If only... if only it could break out, the Emberhawk was certain it could burn everyone here to oblivion.
Even if it couldn't, it was almost certain that it could at least escape and return.
Nox felt the hatred and had mixed feelings. Times like this made him realize that even wild creatures had feelings and emotions. They were just like any human being.
