Still standing in the middle of the slaughter that they just concluded a while ago, Julian felt his brain throbbing painfully with a splitting headache.
Even as a C Rank Mage now, he didn't have endless stamina.
Spending the entire past night awake and hunting tens of thousands of Qi Beasts for 90% of the day had its toll on him. It was not even the physical weakness, but the mental drain that bothered him.
Though Theodore was trying hard not to show any weakness, which was likely due to her past traumas, Julian could tell that she was also tired.
This was why he made the decision to rest and prepare properly to challenge the 50th realm of Dragon's Tooth.
He wasn't bluffing when he told Theodore that he felt that the 50th realm was going to be different, he just had a hunch that they were going to face a surprise.
Also, there was another worry. 'Will the remaining Qi Beasts in this level of the mountain who survived the slaughter target us in our sleep when we're vulnerable?'
