>>6065548"That Dagger had enough power at a strike to pierce a Grandmaster through the face of his sword. Even YunYue the Hunchback would have been hard pressed to turn one blow aside. I gave you something so easy to use, so powerful, but you used it all up, entirely exhausted the Paragon Core beyond recovery, in one. Careless. Blow..." The contemplating look is on his face again. Now he's looking at you.
"Tudi. Come here."
You...shake your head. You try to inch back more, make your legs stand just wide enough to turn and sprint...but you can't. Eh?
Seafood's hand is on the ground, on his wrigglies. You've smudged some of it after all, and now it's holding you fast. Not really "hold", like glue, but your body's gone stupid. Or your brain. You can't tell anything to move. Or nothing knows how to move.
"Come. Here!" Seafood slaps the ground with a bloody hand, and you are dragged through the air into his grasp. All his fingernails are black.
What does your Seafood say? [REWARD]
