Chapter 392: Token No. 3
Liora held the Reincarnation Fruit and immediately had the urge to devour it. She believed that as long as she swallowed it, her soul would take a step forward and leap beyond the Greater Devil stage.
However, despite her instincts urging her to do so, Liora ultimately shook her head with faint reluctance.
"Now is not the time just yet."
"I don’t know how long it will take me to digest its effects fully."
"It’s fine if it only takes a couple of hours, but if days or even weeks pass, I will find myself in danger."
At the same time, Liora had another idea.
She was planning to find a Soul-related Greater Devil Technique.
In that case, the Reincarnation Fruit, a treasure that could enhance one’s soul, would perhaps speed up her practice of the technique, just like elemental resources helped the Four Elements Method.
With that in mind, Liora gritted her teeth and put the Reincarnation Fruit away, no matter how unwilling she might be.
She carefully placed it in one of the Space Orb’s corners, arranging formations around it to ensure that it would not secretly escape while she was not paying attention.
The moment the formations were arranged, Liora’s tense nerves finally relaxed.
Having a valuable treasure in her hands, it would be difficult for her to say that she had not been nervous.
After all, the Reincarnation Fruit had the intention to escape.
If she allowed it to succeed, all the efforts she had gone through would have been for naught.
Recalling her previous actions, Liora subconsciously lowered her head and glanced at the Snake of Time with a tinge of pain in her gaze.
Although she had consumed the corpses of the elderly Devil and the undead creatures to help it recover, the backlash it suffered was greater than expected.
Even though the Snake of Time had not broken apart, some tiny cracks could be seen across its surface, mirroring the small cracks in her own soul.
"Every power requires its user to pay a price. The same holds for the power of time."
"Although the Snake of Time is useful, both in combat and as an auxiliary means, I’m ultimately too weak to really wield it."
"Only when I become an Archdevil, or even reach the peak of that stage, and upgrade the Snake of Time technique a couple more times, will I no longer have to fear suffering backlash.
