Bab 276: No Wonder the Crystal Coffin Glows—There's an Old Demon Inside!

Rita knew that Jameson definitely had a way to sense her actions. After all, if he could deduce things through the blood curse on Sanchez, he was far from ordinary. Yet, Jameson still didn't react. So, Rita opened another food container and placed it beside the crystal coffin. "According to our pact, I've brought Miyaas's remains. I'll count down from ten. If you don't give me the Dragon Ancestor's reverse scale, you're dead. Ten, nine, eight…"

The coffin quickly began to glow—faster than a phone booting up. As it lit up, the first thing Jameson saw upon waking was a big face of a goblin staring down at him. He also sensed the binding power of the oath, confirming that Miyaas's remains had indeed been brought to him.

Jameson asked, "How long has it been?"

It felt like he'd just closed his eyes! The Half Dream skill hadn't even given him a full second of wakefulness. That meant he had only been asleep for less than 10 natural days.
