The tower crashed onto the shield and the dirt pillar supporting the shield.

�Ugh.�

�Ugh.�

All of the mages that had cast the shield let out groans. Only the high-grade mages let out lighter groans.

Hearing them groan made them all recall what had just happened.

Cale had been standing firm without letting out a single groan. Their gazes could not help but turn back toward Cale.

�Cough!�

Cale covered his mouth with both hands as he coughed. That cough was so strong that his entire body staggered forward.

�Young master Cale!�

Daltaro called out to him in shock.

He could see blood in Cale�s hands.

However, Cale�s body did not fall to the ground.

�Cale, are you okay?�

Alberu supported Cale and prevented him from falling. His gaze was focused on Cale whose head was looking down.

Cale started to think with his head down.

�So refreshing.�

His palms were tingling more than last time due to the longer duration, however, his body felt better after a single cough.

�The Vitality of the Heart really is the best.�

Cale was thinking that the Vitality of the Heart was the best ancient power he had obtained. He heard a voice in his head at that moment.

� Why do you not sacrifice yourself?

He quivered after hearing the Super Rock�s voice. He then flinched after hearing what came next.

� � I just wanted to destroy the Empire.

It was the Black Dragon, Raon.

� However, I will hold back since you seem to be in a better condition than when you used the fiery thunderbolt. JrNovels.com
