Cautiousness 1

The moment Seiya dodges her claws, he dashes straight for Elulu, snatching her up while still running. After creating some distance between himself andthe Great Mother, he comes to an abrupt stop, kicking up a cloud of dust.

“Wh-what?!”

Elulu panics, unable to process what’s going on. I’m also confused, but it isn’t long before I figure out why Seiya grabbed Elulu and ran. I look over to the spot where  she’d  been  standing  a  moment  ago  and  see  a  huge  engraving  of  the queen’s claws.

There is a glow of admiration in the Great Mother’s eyes.

“Oh?  I  was  planning  to  gore  her  with  my  claws  while  pretending  to  attack you...but it seems you figured it out. Very impressive.”
