"Hmmm? You are telling me that the divine temple is behind these attacks? They are orchestrating these waves of apocalypse just to get back at you?" The draconian princess stared at Liam with her eyes narrowed.


    Liam sighed and nodded. Of course, there were many things that he could start from but he decided to start with this.


    Mainly because this was a w in his very foundation that was eating him up from the inside and also because right now, in this current situation, this was the most urgent issue that had to be dealt with.


    Also, since he had already talked about this before with the dragondy, he did not have to worry about any other repercussions.


    "Myher affinity is high," Liam exined. "It is as high as my affinity for mana and I have no way to bnce the both of them."


    "Huh? If you can''t bnce them both if you do not have a method to bnce them both, then why go behind both of them in the first ce?"


    "As a human being, you cannot withstandher alone without mana so just give up on theher and grow your mana core. When it concernsher, you can simply keep using the basic skills if you please."


    Liam shook his head. "It''s not that simple. I needher."


    "Hmmm? Why? I have seen your party tricks. You don''t needher for that." The draconian princess was confused for a moment and then it dawned on her. "Do you mean that you don''t have a choice?"


    Liam remained silent.


    "Wait. Just how high is your affinity forher?"


    "It''s high."


    "Brat. Stop it. There is no point in hiding something so basic from me. What did you think about me? A royal princess with the draconian lineage can''t even figure out something like this?"


    "Even without you telling me-"


    With a contemptuous nce, she grabbed Liam''s hand abruptly, and the next moment the woman''s eyes widened in shock.


    "You have… You have… How is this possible?"


    Liam gave a rueful smile.


    Still staring at him, the dragon woman gasped in realization. "So this is why you were asking me about the limit breaker fruit! Without that fruit… you would be as good as dead if you let this situation continue any further!"


    "Oh!" She then once again gasped.


    "Right now, there isher in this world along with mana which means… you have already run out of time!"


    "Your soul strength is high enough, and your mana core is established. Now you only have to be in the presence ofher before it starts to take root in your body and slowly mold it ording to its will."


    "You will be strong and powerful with two main energy cores in your body but at your strongest point, you will also be weak as your body is not built to handle this!"


    "You will inevitably be a cripple and lose everything or worse, you will simply die."


    Liam nodded. That was pretty much his hypothesis as well. The two of them then became quiet, each engrossed in their own thoughts. A heavy silence filled the air.


    But a couple of minutester, the draconian princess clicked her tongue loudly, shaking her head. "No. It''s not possible. Even if all of this is valid, it is still not possible for that divine bitch to screw around with you so much."


    "Why?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    "It''s because she is too visible. She cannot manipte something so huge, affecting the fate of an entire world."


    Liam did not look convinced.


    "Look here. I don''t think you even understand what is happening to your world at the moment. What did you call these? Trials of the apocalypse? Waves of the apocalypse?"


    "Yes?"


    "Hur. Hur. Brat. You are unnecessarilyplicating something simple." The draconian princessughed. "What did you think? There is a grand scheme to test your world or something like that?"


    "No! Who the heck do you think even has the time for that?" The woman continuedughing.


    "Everyone in these myriad realms has their own shit to deal with! Why would someone care about a backwater lower realm? The only idiots who would care are other lower realms. Do you understand it now?"


    Liam shook his head. All of this waspletely out of his depth.


    "Listen, brat. This big sister will make some basic things clear to you. When mana is infused into a lower realm for the first time, the entirety of that world will change."


    "This change will give birth to several treasures and also several powerhouses."


    "Mind you, these treasures and powerhouses are only something in the eyes of the lower realm dwellers. Even the lowest grade mid realm experts wouldn''t look at these insignificant things."


    "However, the lower realm dwellers wouldn''t be that casual about it. Every single lower realm would have their own powerhouses who are dying to reach the next stage."


    "These guys are the ones who want to gobble up your world and ess all the newly formed treasures."


    "And these waves or trials as you call them, are really invasions by these other lower realm dwellers wanting your resources."


    "Your world is actively being invaded!"


    Liam nodded. Even though he was shocked to see that there was this whole other perspective to how he or rather everyone in his previous life understood everything, he wasn''t too shaken up about it. After all, there were too many things that he did not understand.


    And for the first time, he had someone who could give him all the exnations. This was something that he sorely needed.


    Liam clenched his fist and asked, "Okay. In that case, couldn''t the divine temple high priestess be behind this invasion?"


    "No. That would be rather difficult. If I am correct, currently you are being invaded by one of theher type lower realms."


    "Nether type lower realms?"


    "Yes. Just like how your world is most attuned with mana and received mana infusion, some other worlds are attuned with other energies and are infused with their respective choice."


    "Among these are theher type worlds. And that bitch would never lower herself to take their help. She is a very proud cunt."


    "Oh?" Liam raised a brow. What she said was logical but she did not have the full story. "I think you are wrong. She already took the help of someone like that."


    "What do you mean?"


    Liam then told the draconian princess about his whole encounter with the vampires and about the blood effigy that had almost killed him.
