Wait— where did u read the part that says Octo is not the big one from the start? I thought Octo was that thing, because Octo can shrink or getting bigger.
It's theorized that Dr. Yu gave birth to octo. It said in one of the mini stories that they didn't tell Dr. Yu how octo was born because he's gonna be shocked.
Ch 16 when they went to the tree monster ML said "unlike that adult monster you encountered before this one is mild(?)" Since octo was with them and spoke about the first adult monster as a separate entity..
Ohhh is the mini stories in the manhwa or in a novel? Thanks for clarification btw!
Check last page of chapter 17. It says Octo's conception is kept secret to protect Doha's (Dr. Yu) mental health. He's not aware how octo came to be but it's only a theory that it happened when he got caught by the adult tentacle monster.
Can someone explain..if octo is not the big one from the start, did he give birth or the monster give birth? Cuz they never explained how octo even found the dr. To imprint on him..
