However, as both women were about to make a scene, something happened.
The Octopus meat, blood and bones suddenly had a life of its own as it moved as of to heal itself.
Lenny saw this and looked on in surprise.
He could not imagine that the mutated creature that had be chopped up into a thousand pieces was actually mending itself back.
Surprisingly, this action did not stop Either Agnes nor Lady Vinegar from proceeding with their bickering moment.
The the octopus practically did not exist at this moment.
Lenny watched on as the octopus formed itself piece by piece.
Before Lenny's eyes, it had become Whole again.
The instant that it's body was fully formed, it ROARED loudly at the women.
However, they still paid no mind to it.
It was as if a child was throwing a tantrum to mothers that rather engaged in argument that pay attention to it.
Instantly it attacked. It's long tendrils and tentacles rushed for the women.
And then it happened. Lenny had seen it clear as day.
Agnes had only moved her eyes from Lady Vinegar a bit to the Octopus and back.
*BOOM!*
Once more, it had become minced meat.
It was just a slight shift of her gaze but Agnes had relegated the octopus to it's former form
"Riff, the core!"
"Yes, Sister Agnes."
Riff moved. This was action so fast Lenny had not been able to follow with his eyes.
Riff dug through the remains of the octopus and pulled out an oval orb.
It was yellow in color.
Even as he picked it up, the Octopus still tried to form itself about the core once more.
Riff applied a little pressure and the core cracked like glass.
Now, the octopus was truly dead.
Till this moment, the two women still glared at each other.
Just then, they was a rush of people that formed about them.
Some were with weapons and some others were in their Werewolf forms.
All of them had aggressive stares at the uninvited guests.
From the looks of it, they were going to attack any time soon.
"WAIT! WAIT!! WAIT!!!" A voice called out and a person rushed over.
The moment they saw him, these Werewolves opened up a path for him to pass.
After all, he was a very influencial figure in the city.
It was Curtin, a famous scorn of the Alpha family, and potential Alpha of the Pack.
The moment he stepped forward, he gave a shallow laugh in an attempt to ease the ever growing tension between both women
He bowed a bit, "welcome Lady Agnes, I didn't expect that you would arrive so early. I would have come myself to pick you up!"
It was only now that Agnes turned away from Lady Vinegar.
"Hmmm, so you are the useless scorn that wants my brother to fight for him!"
"Yes, that would be me." Curtain gave a flattery laugh.
"Please, if you don't mind, I will love to invite you and Mr Riff into the City of Milk and Honey as humble guests of mine."
Almost as quickly as he said this, another voice was heard.
This one was more hoarse, and it was backed with a little more confidence and command.
"Into which city!?"
Once more the crowd opened up, and a group of elderly men stepped forward.
Just from their extravagant robes, one could tell how important they were.
These were the Elders of the Pack.
In front was Elder Isaiah.
"Curtin, you may be a potential candidate for Alpha of this pack, but until you manage to become one, I'll advice that you keep to our rules and traditions. Demons are not allowed into the City of Milk and Honey.
There are a million reasons for this rule. One of them, I'm sure you are aware of.
But you want to invite a demon into our city and even participate in the Tournament?"
Elder Isaiah gave a meaningful look at Curtin as he intentionally held back his tongue.
Curtain chuckled a bit with a smug expression on his face, "actually, I am well aware of this Elder Isaiah. And that is why i think you should know this. These are not Demons. Although they do have a relation to demons, they are actually HALF-BORNS."
"And so what! They are the Damned abominations of Demons."
"Old your tongue old man," Agnes immediately interrupted.
Calling her a 'Damned abomination' had instantly roused her anger.
Elder Isaiah turned to her with a brow raised, "oh! And what will you do if I don't?"
Agnes frowned, "How about I make sure you never suck on your wife's titties again." She stepped forward.
Surprisingly, so did Elder Isaiah.
As he did, an ancient oppressive aura seemed to envelope the air.
This oppressive aura was obviously not from the old elder, but it was clear that it was in support of him.
It applied significant pressure to Agnes and she had no choice but to grit her teeth harshly as she took a step back.
After all, this aura and pressure was from none other than the Primordial Beast.
Even Agnes although strong, knew her limits.
She was strong but against a Primordial beast, she was nothing worthy of a toothpick.
After all, primordial beasts were known to the connected to the core of the world itself.
That was an existence that was of the peak of the great Demon rank.
Even her father, the Feared Mr Augustus would not challenge the Primordial Beast of the City of Milk and Honey.
If she were to do that, it would be an expression of foolishness.
Her fist tightened about her umbrella, and her anger was evident on her face.
However, Lenny could not help but frown a bit.
Something about this aura and pressure did not feel right.
Lenny was not sure what it was, but it felt wrong, and if it felt wrong, then something was definitely off somewhere.
"Young miss, it seems that, just because you managed to defeat a little squid, you have forgotten the land you now stand. Do you need me to remind you?" Elder Isaiah asked.
