บท 635: Essence vs Mana

"I've only seen corpses of dragons on my planet. My father had a bone dragon as a pet and I wondered what they were like when they lived," Drake said. "I can't believe you guys are so strong."

"Of course, we are," Derel said.

"But that was truly quite strong," Ning said. "You killed that lion with a single attack. Why did you struggle so much against the Midnight Phoenix then?"

"I can't bring out my full power in my human form," Derel said. "Only maybe 10% of it."

"Then you could have changed and fought right?" Ning asked. "Is there some problem with transforming?"

"No," Derel said. "I just didn't want to."

"Huh? Why not?" Drake asked.

"Because it was only the 2nd competition. I didn't want to give away all my abilities in the 2nd competition. Who knows what other weird fights I will have to go through before I get that system thing," she said.
