Harper kept throwing the pills into her mouth. Whenever she picked a pill, popped it into her mouth and munched it, the beast followed her action, then flung its head against the barrier and opened its mouth as if it hoped that the pills would be thrown into its mouth.

Harper was rather amused by this gesture. Out of curiosity, Harper wrapped the pill with her spiritual energy and flung it out of the barrier. The beast chased after the pill and swallowed it in one gulp. When it came back to the barrier, there was a remarkable change in its demeanor.

Diana was petrified to be treated like that by a small beast. She was the princess of the South Kingdom after all! What the hell was wrong with this world? First, Harper bullied her. And now, even the little beast picked by Harper was bullying her!
