Bab 195: Is it the truth?

The whole area was almost flattened after the explosion. Linius shook his head a couple of times before the ringing in his ear stopped and vision cleared. When he looked up, he saw a red barrier surrounding him and in front of him was Cygnus. His gaze then wandered around and what he saw made him close his eyes.

"That's how greedy people end up. I just told him that consuming mana cores can extend one's life, he went ahead and consumed more than he can bear. What a stupid person." Cygnus chuckled while shaking his head.
