Kristoff and Kenneth sensed something was wrong when they saw Leviathan's expression, which only served to amplify their desire to obtain the draconic essence for themselves.
Jared took two apprehensive steps back from the intensity of Leviathan's gaze.
“Is that true? Did you consume it?” Leviathan asked.
Jared nodded without a word.
“They’re my friends, Dad,” Colin
cried. “Jared only-”
“Silence!” Leviathan roared at his son before turning to one of his men. “Take him away.”
Two masters from the Shadow Estate fell out of formation and practically marched Colin away by pinning him from either side.
After Colin had been taken away, Leviathan stretched out his hand toward Jared. “Surrender the draconic essence, boy, and I'll let you walk away safely.”
“The draconic essence has been swallowed by this kid hours ago, Mr.
Zare,” Kristoff reported. “It's most likely digested by now.”
“Ignorance,” Leviathan snorted coldly without even sparing Kristoff a glance, keeping both his eyes fixed on Jared. An invisible hand of forceful coercion enveloped Jared and pushed his spine into a half-bow.
Jared felt the weight of a mountain pressing down on his back. His legs began to tremble slightly.
Leviathan was a little surprised at the strength of Jared’s resolve.
He only has the strength of the Seventh Level Grandmaster. How could he have withstood it?
