Zach, Lexi, Visla, Yanael, Alzara, Soara, and Mandra looked at the egg with growing anticipation.
It wasn't enough. The egg didn't hatch even after several minutes.
"You know what this means?" Zach asked Lexi.
"No…?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
"No…?"
"It wants more."
"By more, do you mean…?"
"What else could I mean? Let's go kill that stupid snake now." Zach said decisively.
It was the best way to ruin the Evandiels' and the Seshas' plan to wait for people to die to kill the Hydra. If he killed it first, their efforts would be for naught. It would be a hefty slap in their faces.
Lexi was stunned for a moment as she looked at Zach. She sighed. It was what she had guessed. Zach, the madman, was going to challenge a monster that their family had prepared their entire lives for. The Evandiels had put together an army of elites and trained until they bled to prepare for it.
They had also entered a tacit agreement with the Sesha that the Hydra needed to be killed before anything else.
