Chapter 2174: Empty

Those watching felt completely numb as they experienced Dyon treating a Dragon as though he was nothing more than a ragdoll. The difference was so large that there was no question about who was superior. It was only now they realized that the Dragon King's confident words were something both he and Dyon knew he couldn't have been so sure of before the battle began. 

He had said those words not because he believed them, but because he had his own pride to protect. He knew how this day would go, how his life would actually end… but he came here anyway. That was his Dao. 

Guild Head Zabel had some of the most complex emotions of them all. He knew that with Dyon's intelligence, it was impossible that he didn't know that he had been targeted.
