"You bastard..." Alyssa was starting to get annoyed because here she was, kind enough to help Rocky break through to the Supernal Stage and help him fuse with the power on the third layer of the seal, and yet, this guy repaid her kindness like this and put the two of them in danger.
Of course, she also knew that Rocky had no control over what was happening in his body at that moment, so she should not blame him. After all, he was under the influence of evil power, and he was only acting by sheer instinct. Even so, she would still blame their current danger on him.
"You look like you want to kill me in the most painful ways imaginable," she muttered unpleasantly, as she tried her best to suppress the power released from the fourth layer of the seal in Rocky's body.
In this way, she successfully stopped him from doing anything untoward to her, while she was also pulling the power toward the spiritual soul container.
Rocky struggled again when she was so focused on her task, as the power was so close to being absorbed by the spiritual soul container. His sudden movement distracted her, and the power seized that opportunity to make a move. It broke through her suppression and was about to burst out of Rocky's body.
"Damn it!" Alyssa's face grew somber because of the situation that was getting more and more dangerous by the minute.
In the next breath, the power released from the fourth layer of the seal in Rocky's body went berserk again. Unexpectedly, it even slowly devoured Alyssa's power at the Divine Stage.
"How is this possible?" Even Alyssa was startled. She didn't expect that the power of the Holy Dragon Bead could devour others' spiritual power, and it was obvious that there was a gap in power between them.
Not long after that, her power began to decline because of the crazy counterattack of the power released from the fourth layer of the seal, and the latter easily reoccupied his body again.
Just as she was about to fall unconscious, she felt a sharp pain from
uries.
When Alyssa regained consciousness, she slowly opened her eyes that felt too heavy to move. She won the battle with her eyelids that wouldn't budge, and as she lifted them, she found herself lying on the soft grass in an abandoned tree house. She carefully stood up with the help of her surroundings, and as she looked around, she realized that she was alone.
"Where is he?" Alyssa was surprised that Rocky had left, so she immediately got up and looked around. She walked out of the tree house, anxiously looking around for him.
As soon as she walked out of the tree house, she saw a figure that was sitting leisurely on a thick branch beside the tree house. She felt relieved.
"Phew, you are finally awake." When he saw that she had finally awakened, Rocky greeted her with a smirk on his face that promised her that he was probably up to no good.
Seeing the expression on his face, especially at the impish grin on his lips, Alyssa subconsciously remembered what had happened before. She glared fiercely at him and immediately walked back into the tree house.
Rocky just shrugged and smiled.
After a long time, Alyssa came out again. It seemed that she had regained her usual cold and arrogant look, but the expression in her eyes as she looked at Rocky was not murderous. Instead, it seemed almost fond and tender.
