And the roots of the "Underworld Flame" had entered from that point, spreading throughout both soul and body.
If she failed in the Duel Ritual, those roots would strip away every last trace of the power the "Underworld Flame" had bestowed upon her, along with all related memories.
What remained to be seen was whether, as "Cofagrigus" absorbed this final portion of the "Underworld Flame," it would slurp all those roots into its mouth in one go like noodles while leaving the broth behind; suck away only the portion at the entrance, leaving both roots and broth intact; or gulp down the broth as well?
Those three possibilities would determine the final effect of "Cofagrigus"!
"Mm..."
A familiar sensation soon swept over her.
After keeping her eyes open for three or four minutes, Nana finally closed them.
In that instant, her senses became extraordinarily sharp!
Every change in every corner of her body was reflected in her mind.
From here on, she had to focus completely!
Meanwhile, outside.
Dark and Josie sat down beside her and waited patiently.
Waiting was all they could do.
Though "Cofagrigus" was Dark's Magic Spirit, there was little he could do beyond reminding it to be careful.
"About how long will it take?" Dark suddenly asked.
Josie thought for a moment. "One or two hours if it's quick. Three or four hours if it's slow...?"
"That long?" Dark took a deep breath and straightened his back.
The longer wait actually helped him relax.
He really was not used to others taking risks for the sake of his experiments.
What, DemiDevimon?
That definitely did not count as someone else.
Of course, DemiDevimon was a Familiar. Not only was it, like a Magic Spirit, not easily damaged, but it was also even more resilient than one.
