Kapitel 404: Hastened Withering (Part 1)

Although she knew the Jade Dynasty owning a proud history of making a joke out of the world's talents, until today, Ilkaalt had never experienced the depth of that truth. In the past, she may have been able to run amok before Else, but on this occasion, she absolutely couldn't find that confidence again.

Floundering, she stepped back and looked left and right, seeking an escape road. Alas, only the sprawling corpses of the vanquished queens laid in the vicinity. In despair, Ilkaalt teetered.

"What a disappointment. You don't even have the will to fight. Konrad was right, before setbacks, you have no backbones."

Else berated with slumping interest. And seeing how those feline, sapphire eyes chastised her, Ilkaalt felt a wave of ire fuel her veins and suppress her cowardice.

"What did you just say?"

She questioned in a trembling voice. Her reaction failed to trigger any interest in Else who merely shook her head.
