"Fuck!"
I cursed as I slumped on the ground with drenched clothes; the Tide had been really something far more dangerous than I had expected, no wonder lots of people died by it.
I had not expected the Tide to be something like it, something this dangerous with my current strength.
I do not underestimate myself; I know I am powerful, and there are only a limited number of Emperors that could pose a threat to me; with such power and my envious control, I had not thought Tide would affect me much, but it did.
Not only affected me, but it had also let me see the reality of control to which I had been so proud, and to be honest, I am not sad; I am quite happy instead.
I had thought my control had reached a very high level that now I will have to progress very slowly.
My mentality had made my progress slow, thinking I had reached close to the peak, but now, seeing the real state of my control, I am sure I will improve quickly if I worked hard.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
