Chapitre 1098: Elvarion

"Hmm?" Liam's action paused. 

It was apparent to him that the elf standing opposite held a power level far beyond his own. The aura that the elf exuded was not just strong, but it held a depth and complexity that suggested years of cultivation and mastery. 

Yet, here the elf was, asking him to wait, even going so far as to negotiate his own worth.

Liam mulled over this scenario. He could glean a rough idea of the events that had transpired. 

Perhaps the elf had observed his control over the soul beasts, their eventual dissolution and made certain assumptions about his abilities. Maybe he had mistaken Liam's power level.

But there was a puzzle piece that didn't fit. Shouldn't the elf be able to determine his level of strength?

If an individual held a much higher level than another, they could use the basic skill [Inspect] to view the other's status. It was a fundamental function that allowed one to gauge the power and abilities of another.
