章節 106: Mana's Test

Feeling the man's sharp, grey gaze scanning his body, evidently perceiving it, Adam looked back into Shepard's eyes with unconcealed panic. 

Despite his dread, he couldn't help but speculate about the man's ability to perceive him. After all, even Vikram, a tier-four mage, could only vaguely sense something when Adam used mana. Did this imply that Shepard was even stronger? Was he one of the rare elite who had reached the fifth tier?

His breathing became ragged after theorising this terrifying scenario. He could almost envision the man raising his staff, ready to obliterate him as effortlessly as he had done with the dragons during the show.

Subsequently, Adam closed his eyes as Shepard raised his staff, fearing the worst. Despite his unyielding nature, he knew that trying to resist such an expert was pointless. It would take Shepard two seconds at most to end him.
