The Almighty Dragon General Chapter 4537-James and Lief continued chatting for quite some time. Eventually, they decided to head back to the saintess’ spiritual mountains and left the restaurant together.
Inside a quiet manor located among the spiritual mountains belonging to the saintess, Saachi was training inside a room.
She was glowing in a pure, white light from head to toe. The colors of her eyes took on a mysterious, dreamy shade. It was as if one could see the enchanting view of the galaxies in within them.
All of a sudden, a burst of Sword Energy seemed to materialize before Saachi’s eyes, and it abruptly stopped Saachi from using her powers. The magnificent colors faded from Saachi’s eyes almost instantaneously. Blood oozed from the corners of her eyes as her irises appeared to turn dull and murky.
As Saachi coughed up some blood, she lost her balance and fell onto the floor.
On the other hand, Leif had been waiting patiently outside since he sensed that Saachi was in the middle of her training session. Upon hearing the noises, Leif hurriedly entered the room.
“Your Holiness, are you alright?” Leif asked anxiously.
Saachi wiped the blood off her lips with the back of her hand. Then, she slowly got to her feet. The lady seemed like a celestial being who had fallen to the lands of the mortals as she had lost her usual radiance and vitality at that moment.
Saachi nodded. “I’m fine.”
Leif did not dwell on the matter since he was well aware of her current struggles. He tactfully changed the topic.
“I just met James Caden, and had a chat with him. The man is still wary of us since he hasn’t shared anything of note about himself with me. However, I can tell that he probably has an impressive background.”
Leif knew that James had not been completely truthful since he was probably being cautious. Still, after the conversation with James, Leif had a rough idea about his circumstances.
“It seems he truly hasn’t heard about you or your name, Ms. Saachi. My guess is that he’s probably a member of a mysterious, hidden clan or organization from one of the other districts. Perhaps he hasn’t heard of you since these organizations tend to limit their contact with the outside world. Judging by that, James most likely isn’t associated with those from the Aeternus District.”
Saachi nodded. “Hm. In that case, you can just leave him be. However, we must stay cautious at all times. If you catch him doing something that might put our universe in jeopardy, arrest him immediately.”
“Understood.”
“Alright. You may leave now.” Saachi waved her hand lightly.
As Leif exited the room and closed the door behind him, Saachi’s face hardened into a serious grimace. She lifted her hand and conjured a book with a black cover on her palm. There were no words printed on its cover.
While Saachi stared at the book, the past memories of a conversation she had with an elderly cultivator flashed across her mind.
‘The wielders of the Dobro Eyes would grow to become matchless and unparalleled powerhouses. However, the heavens have always been envious of those who are gifted with the Dobro Eyes. Throughout this time, none of the owners of the Dobro Eyes have managed to unlock the full potential and cultivation of their abilities. All of them have failed one way or another during their process of learning and training.”
“If the powers of your Dobro Eyes are somehow destroyed someday, you may choose to turn the Dobro Eyes into Damon Eyes. However, you’ll inevitably turn everyone against you, and you’ll be alienated by the others for the rest of your life.”
‘Take this book with you. The choice is yours.”
Those words still seemed to ring in Saachi’s ears.
She had a torn expression on her face.
‘What would happen if I choose to wield the Damon Eyes?’ Saachi pondered.
