Chapter 1240: The Original Purpose
"Ah!"
The Primordial Snake bathed in the radiance of [Dawn Seal] immediately let out a miserable scream.
The agony in that cry far exceeded the shadow backlash it had suffered earlier.
After all, one was merely a simple backlash.
But the other?

As Soyedek's body was sent flying by the tremendous blow, [Dandelion's Piercing] stabbed
