They were nothing to loot on living spirit beasts.
The army gathered around the remaining spirit beast, which was the spirit praying mantis. The praying mantis knew it was done for.
"Should we tame the praying mantis, General Alexander?" Mystica asked her general.
"We tamed the other two spirit beasts. Adding one more help should not be a problem. Give it a chance to live."
"Hmmm!!"
Mystica turned to look at the spirit praying mantis and said, "Surrender or die."
The spirit praying mantis who has given up the right to live heard the most wonderful word in its entire lifetime. 'SURRENDER'. The 'die' was instinctively omitted. Damn! Who will choose death when there is an option to live? No-no, I will have to be an idiot to choose the word death.
The spirit praying mantis scans the environment and shakes its antenna. These companions are way better than me. They dropped whatever pride was in them and submitted wholeheartedly. Why will I be different?
