The Sealed Battlefield
"I'm losing my patience."
Although his face remained calm, Victor could already feel the violent mana inside his body becoming unstable.
The power he had gained by consuming the young dragon's heart would not last forever.
The backlash was approaching.
He wanted this battle finished before that happened.
Alibaba carefully studied Victor's expression.
For centuries he had observed countless humans.
Reading expressions had become second nature to him.
Victor looked impatient.
But beneath that impatience...
There was urgency.
Alibaba suddenly understood.
A dry laugh escaped his mouth.
"Hehehe..."
"So that's how it is..."
"When we fought months ago..."
"You were nowhere near this powerful."
"You forced your strength to increase."
His finger slowly pointed toward Victor.
"You consumed the young dragon's heart."
"The dungeon core."
"Power like that always comes with a price."
"There must be side effects."
"You have a time limit."
