The World of Beasts: She's Got Their Hearts novel Chapter 156

"This is such a hassle. Sean is much easier to control." Benjamin rubbed his slightly swollen head, his consciousness in his mind tearing at him.

"Is there nothing else I can do but temporarily take control of Finlay's body?" He covered one of his eyes and glared at the black circle in the mirror.

"If it weren't for you wasting a lot of my energy, there's no way I'd be unable to control this body now." Ophir's voice paused.

"What does it have to do with me? It wasn't my fault that Analise's bow hit us, forcing us to separate from Sean," Benjamin shot back.

He shook his slightly dizzy head and began scanning the nearby starships.

The nearby starships had become denser since earlier. Fortunately, their starship was currently hidden, or it would have been troublesome.

The black circle above Benjamin's head flickered but did not respond to Benjamin's words.

After a short while, Ophir spoke again, "Pay attention and avoid these starships. If Analise is on one of them, we won't be able to hide for long. It's already hard enough to find a suitable body, and I don't want to keep dragging you through interstellar space!"

"Got it," Benjamin responded impatiently.

He had to control the starship while also suppressing Finlay's consciousness. It was exhausting.

The useless Ophir was floating here, doing nothing except concealing the starship. And if they ran into Analise and Echo, it would be over.

"So, it turns out Ophir is really here. Host, we can earn big points this time!" a slightly cheerful electronic voice sounded, startling both Benjamin and Ophir.

"Alright. Let's greet them first and then contact Analise and the new system," a lazy female voice came through the starship's control panel, clearly audible to both Benjamin and Ophir.
