He did not disturb Yelai. Silently, he followed Yelai back to the table, quietly eating from his own bowl, waiting for Yelai to make a decision.
Hurry up.
The Knife-Cut Noodles were finished. Yelai set down his empty bowl and chopsticks, and in an instant, they mysteriously became transparent before vanishing completely, even the remnants of soup on the table disappeared. However, he paid little attention to this and lifted his head to look around.
The Tongue Sequence Creature sensed something and raised its head to meet his gaze.
Although I haven't decided which amusement ride to go to yet, I can tell you in advance that I don't mind teaming up with you, but there is one prerequisite.
Yelai said, raising a finger.
What exactly do you want by teaming up with me?
His tone was deep, and as he spoke, his profound gaze burned like the sun.
The Anomalous Entity was not in harmony with the other Anomalous Entities; there was a more severe survival of the fittest at play. Helping Yelai in public made it seem like he was siding with humans in the eyes of other Anomalous Entities.
Without a doubt, this would definitely bring him considerable trouble.
Because of this, Yelai understood that he was expressing his attitude or sincerity about wanting to team up with him.
If you don’t answer, I won’t team up with you. I value my life; I have no fondness for beings like you.
Yelai once again asked firmly in a low voice. He was also making his own stance clear: no answer meant no team-up.
Immediately after, Yelai touched the Eyeballs in his pocket and continued.
Don’t think that if I refuse you, you can just follow me around waiting for me to finish at the amusement rides before joining me. I have plenty of ways to avoid you and make sure you can’t find me.
Of course, even if you manage to find me, I won’t give you a chance to enjoy the rides with me.
As long as you don’t answer, even if it means I’ll spend hours not enjoying the rides, I won’t let you have the opportunity to join me.
It seemed he realized Yelai's determination.
The Tongue Sequence Creature tilted its head slightly, revealing a pair of piercingly large eyes. It was unclear whether it was contemplating Yelai's words, weighing its options, or intimidating Yelai for daring to speak to it in such a manner.
Yet, Yelai remained unafraid. After all, there was still plenty of time before the hour grew late; he had all the time in the world to wait.
For a moment, the two sat in the shop, staring at each other, while several passing Anomalous Entities and Sequences glanced over curiously before moving on.
After more than a minute had passed, the Tongue Sequence Creature finally stood up and stepped outside the shop. It extended a slender arm with five fingers, beckoning for Yelai to follow.
Yelai furrowed his brow for a moment, considering his options before deciding to rise and follow.
Soon after, the Tongue Sequence Creature led Yelai through the snack street, arriving at a narrow alleyway between two shops.
"You’re quite sincere," Yelai remarked.
This area was part of the snack street, designated as a no-fighting zone. Therefore, even though the Tongue Sequence Creature had brought him here, there was no need for him to fear an ambush in this secluded spot.
The Tongue Sequence Creature did not respond to Yelai's teasing. Instead, it opened its wide mouth filled with sharp teeth and unfurled its long, curled tongue, revealing what it had wrapped within.
What is this?!
As Yelai recognized the object presented before him, a spark of light seemed to ignite deep within his eyes.
An eyeball!
The sclera was completely bloodshot, appearing a vivid crimson that was unsettling to behold. The pupil was an eerie pitch black, as if it were an abyss that swallowed any light that dared to shine upon it.
Yelai felt a surge of surprise; his hand instinctively tightened around the Eyeballs he had kept in his pocket for emergencies.
He was all too familiar with this eyeball!
Wasn't this one of the Eyeballs?
Feeling the texture of the Eyeballs in his pocket, he knew that the Eyeballs taken out by the Tongue Sequence Creature were not the same as the Eyeballs in his hand. It was another Eyeball.
