However, the Eternal Emperor Rongka, who was standing off to the side, released a strange glow from his eyes.
Rongka was familiar with Tilian. They had conversed multiple times during past wars. Back then, Rongka had always felt that Tilian harbored some ambition, but he had assumed that Tilian was only interested in the throne of the Black Dragon Empire. It was only now that he realized this young fellow's ambition was even greater!
If anything were to pique Rongka's interest, it would probably be an intelligent individual.
However, not just any intelligent person would do. They had to be extraordinarily smart.
A person competent enough to cause the downfall of the Black Dragon Empire would be a perfect candidate.
Dreadful energy formed in his hand without being unleashed; the fragmented Tilian was completely absorbed into this energy under the influence of some mysterious power.
