Chapter 252: Probing × high praise × toying
After completing Time Reversal, the Guardian Nen Beast disappeared, then condensed into being again.
Something that should have inspired even greater despair instead made Joey's eyes light up.
The Guardian Nen Beast's disappearance after activating its ability meant that Joey's earlier guess had been correct.
King Nasubi's Guardian Nen Beast did indeed need a recovery period after activating its ability, which could also be viewed as a skill cooldown time.
Now, the reconstituted Guardian Nen Beast was covered in pitch-black resentment. Clearly, the resentment Nasubi had suddenly absorbed had changed his ability, giving the Guardian Nen Beast a chance to reconstitute itself and continue being used.
But this reconstitution had to consume resentment!
Although Joey could not confirm how much resentment Nasubi had absorbed, judging by what had surged toward the Central Area earlier, it had not reached a terrifying level. In other words, it could be exhausted.
That was right: exhausted.
After all, as things stood, there was no getting around that monster capable of Time Reversal if he wanted to kill Nasubi.
However, Joey had also reached another conclusion from the monster's ability.
