118. In The Face Of Despair

"Haa! Haa!" Panting heavily and trying to keep his pain-stricken body floating in the air, Sam activated his [Neither Manipulation] ability. 

Although on the outside, Sam's body was in optimal condition. But continuous use of his abilities was putting a heavy toll on his mind. 

He was exhausted- both mentally and physically. 

Although his stamina kept on regenerating, Sam knew his body would reach its limit sooner or later. 

While on the other hand, Starsuper continued to fight without any signs of stopping anytime soon.

Yes, his superhero costume was in rags. 

Yes, his body was constantly being covered in scars and burns as soon as they healed because of the onslaught of dragons on him.

Yes, he was suffering. 

But that was not nearly enough for Sam. 

42 of his dragons had already fallen. 7 remaining ones were still fighting Starsuper while Sam was recovering from his exhausted state.
