Seven days later...
"The challenge has been accepted, the battle's date will be announced soon." Queen Ai notified.
"He sure took his sweet time." Felix glanced at the notification with an emotionless expression.
He already expected that Elder Dragon would delay the battle as much as possible to finish the absorption process.
From his spy's point of view, he had just finished 30% of the amount.
"You think he will absorb everything before the battle?" Asna wondered, "The SG Committee might schedule the battle in fifteen days and he could do nothing about it."
"Yes, he could." Felix shook his head, "He might not be able to order them directly, but they won't reject a request from him to push the battle back a month."
Felix understood that the SG Committee would not refuse Elder Dragon for such a harmless request.
