The Blue Dragon Wyrmling Abel finally gave out, flopping sideways onto the grass and panting nonstop.
"N-no... I can't... I can't go on... I can't run anymore... Xiluo... let's... take a break..."
"Useless! Giving up already? Looks like your body is nowhere near as strong as your mouth!
"And you dare compare yourself to Xiluo? You're not even worth one of his claws!"
Gordon mocked him again.
His chest and belly were heaving from time to time too. Clearly, he was exhausted as well.
Still, it had to be said that this dragon hatchling really did have astonishing stamina.
He had clearly spent so long fighting two level-eight druids earlier.
In terms of stamina alone, even Xiluo might not have been his match.
"Damn you... Gordon..."
The Blue Dragon Wyrmling looked unwilling to accept it.
"Huff... huff..."
Xiluo glanced at the Red Dragon Whelp and Abel.
"Huff... now isn't the time to stop and rest. We're not completely safe yet. We have to run farther."
Xiluo answered between pants.
"But... I really... can't... I really can't..." Abel looked pained.
"In that case, I'll carry you."
Xiluo looked at Abel, then hoisted him onto his back.
"Xiluo, you..."
Abel's voice trembled slightly. Clearly, he had not expected Xiluo to do this.
Even Gordon furrowed his brow plates.
"You already ran out of stamina carrying Allen for so long earlier. What's the point of pushing yourself now?"
"Heh! Who said I was out of stamina?"
Xiluo smiled slightly.
He focused his awareness on the Vitality Orb in his stomach.
Threads of mana gathered around it.
The next moment.
Xiluo felt the energy contained within the Vitality Orb release.
Like a pool of warm water, it instantly washed through his entire body.
"Mm..."
The extraordinary comfort made him sigh involuntarily.
The exhaustion throughout
