Yukimura only muttered another apology and his thanks, moving to hold her gently.
Food was difficult to get, ever since Megohime had been broken out of Cochlea and her body returned to normal, she never fully regained the feeling of normalcy. Her body felt weak and foreign to her, almost like she had turned human. She could tell without even fighting that she had weakened a great deal, and had discovered even after devouring dozens of weak Ghouls, he kagune has ceased to mutate like it had been before, halting the process of her becoming a kakuja. She could still feel the small barbed spine that had started to develop from her kagune; it hadn’t changed at all. It was devastating, why had everything stopped? Had she undergone too much physical trauma, was her body at its limit?
Regardless, she needed to hunt for food, she couldn’t rely on Masamune for her meals. She knew that with her capture fame the alienation from her family and associates, as well as the inevitable loss of her hunting grounds, but she would still use them to feed. She knew them like the back of her hand, and if she laid low enough, and hid her identity, it shouldn’t be an issue.
