As much as Gladius wanted to entertain himself at the Dark Shore to quench the thirst and bitterness caused by his lateness to the main show, he could not move on.
Could he attack Menis?
Sure, but that wasn't the kind of battle he was looking for. Moreover, to fight against someone so dangerous, he needed a better reason than just wanting to kill his boredom.
Step. Step. Step.
Menis plunged into the bloody river, disappearing into the depths of her lands with a lonely splash. Soon, other regenerative monsters would arrive, some born directly into lakes or trees, but to Menis, it was of little interest.
All she needed was for no one to disturb her. Only someone as strong as Gladius was worthy of her attention, who could take over her lands, she wouldn't waste her time on others.
"Well, well... It wasn't what I expected, but at least I got something interesting."
Gladius ran a hand through his hair, glancing around.
