"Brat, I'm going to rip you apart and see how much more treasure you have inside you!" Edison roared, furious that Jacob had swallowed the draconic essence. But Jacob had no time to deal with Edison as he turned to Sierra and asked, "How many Spirit Connecting Fruits are left?"
"Only one," Sierra shouted.
"Hmph. So what if you've already plucked all the Spirit Connecting Fruits? They'll end up in my hands anyway," Edison sneered, charging toward Jacob.
Although Jacob had regained some of his spiritual energy after swallowing the draconic essence, he still stood little chance against Edison. However, he knew that if he backed down now, Sierra would be in danger, and the Spirit Connecting Fruits would fall into Edison's hands.
