Chapter 47: Might is Right
The Poison Dragon fell on the ground, lying motionless nearby.
Eren's heart raced with adrenaline as he realized the magnitude of his triumph. He had just managed to kill a Dragon!
Although it was just the weakest species of the Dragons, he had still achieved the impossible before the effects of Talisman ran out.
Just a single attack had exhausted him to the point that he couldn't even pull out the sword from the Dragon.
Although it was shameless to steal someone else's kill, it didn't matter for now.
"You!"
The Woman had already gathered all her strength. But before she was about to attack, someone else came and took the kill?
What was worse was that she didn't know how strong this person was. Was he going to kill her next?
She couldn't confirm. She knew that if she stopped her attack now, she couldn't gather her strength again. She was going to be overwhelmed by the poison.
The man could do anything to her. This was the last attack she could conjure. Stopping it in the middle was more harmful to her.
Worried about the man's intention, she didn't stop the attack. Her figure rushed forward as she punched with all her might, her fist aiming at Eren.
It was a fist that had shattered the Poison Dragon's scales. Eren, as a reader, knew a lot about the strength of this fist. Rêađ latest cha/p/ters at novelhall.com
But still, seeing her fist coming towards him, he only had a smile on his face.
That was because of the screen that appeared before him.
A second pendant appeared around his neck.
[You have received the Pendant of Strength]
[Pendant of Strength]
[Tier: Rare]
[Description: Once used, can temporarily increase your strength for five minutes]
Eren grabbed the spike, taking it off her hand.
As the woman felt his hands touch her hands, she felt a current course through the body. The poison was making her go crazy.
Eren didn't remember her trying to kill herself in the novel. Then again, Ye Liang hadn't killed a Poison Dragon and appeared as a threat to her.
Instead, the boy simply remained hidden until the end of the battle.
In the eyes of the woman, he was just a boy who had accidentally entered this place. So instead of dying, she decided to live, even if it meant letting the Poison control her.
This time, it was different. She hated the man who was dangerous. She didn't know what the man's intentions were.
In the novel, she didn't feel threatened because Ye Liang was weak. She had thought that she would kill him after she got rid of the poison to bury her shameful past with Ye Liang. Hence, she did it with him.
It was only in the morning that she decided to let him live, granting mercy on him.
Eren was different in her eyes. He was stronger than her. She couldn't kill him. She couldn't control him. Hence, she preferred to die.
"Are you really that desperate to die?"
Eren asked the girl while opening his inventory. He didn't know why, but he felt slightly frustrated at her reaction.
He didn't plan to sleep with her in the first place. He had Celeste in his pocket and it wasn't a scene he wanted to show her.
Hence, he had prepared some specific antidotes for the Aphrodisiac. He wanted to help her and gain her favor.
That's why he came here. But the options made the situation develop in a strange direction.
Even in this situation, he wanted to help her get rid of the poison with the antidote, but her reaction was frustrating.
She was willing to do it with Ye Liang, but she preferred to die than to think about sleeping with him? It felt slightly insulting.
'Whatever, I can still help her and change her perception. I believe I can remove the misunderstanding.'
Eren opened the system inventory where he kept the Aphrodisiac Antidote that he bought in the Sect.
He was about to bring out the antidote to give the Woman when the screen suddenly changed.
The System Inventory disappeared and four options appeared before him.
