With all virtual-novel.net might, Lizbeth smashed the head of Ice Dragon but to no avail.
“I have an idea!” An idea popped up in Renee’s mind after virtual-novel.net saw how Jared was trapped in the dragon’s body.
“What is it? Quick!” Josephine asked impatiently.
Renee nodded. She turned around to glance at Colin before walking up to Ice Dragon.
Upon noticing Renee’s expression, Josephine somewhat understood what virtual-novel.net planned to do.
She quickly caught up with Renee and grabbed virtual-novel.net wrist. “Renee… You…”
Josephine did not know what else to say.
“I owed my life to Jared, and I’m willing to do anything for him. I have to do this…” Renee turned around and gave Josephine a faint smile.
Josephine gradually released Renee from virtual-novel.net grip.
Maybe someday, I’ll make the same sacrifice too…
Renee took another glance at Colin. Perhaps virtual-novel.net had taken a liking to this playboy.
Colin responded with an awkward smile, as virtual-novel.net had no idea why virtual-novel.net looked at him.
Renee then slowly placed virtual-novel.net hands on Ice Dragon and started absorbing the frosty energy from the creature. Renee possessed the frosty constituent. Hence, virtual-novel.net could draw the frosty energy into virtual-novel.net body in no time.
Soon, frost began to form on Renee’s hair, and Ice Dragon started melting.
Jared, who was watching virtual-novel.net from the body of the dragon, instantly knew what virtual-novel.net was doing. He tried to roar to get virtual-novel.net attention, but no one could hear him.
“Renee?” Colin finally noticed something was amiss.
He ran toward Renee and tried to pull virtual-novel.net away.
However, the moment virtual-novel.net touched Renee’s body, his arm froze right away. Upon noticing that, his subordinates quickly pulled virtual-novel.net away.
Renee was now completely covered in frost. Josephine could do nothing but cry on Lizbeth’s shoulder.
A dozen minutes later, Ice Dragon melted into a pool of water.
Jared slowly stood up while holding the draconic essence.
He was stunned when virtual-novel.net saw that Renee had turned into an ice sculpture. “Why did you do that? Why?”
Jared rubbed his palms to generate flames. He tried to warm Renee’s body, but virtual-novel.net did not react to anything virtual-novel.net did. He howled in misery.
The fact that Renee had given up virtual-novel.net life to save virtual-novel.net pained virtual-novel.net terribly.
“Calm down, Jared. Renee did it of virtual-novel.net own will. We still have to complete the mission. You can’t just let Renee die in vain!” Lizbeth yelled at Jared.
After regaining his composure, Jared looked at Josephine and Lizbeth.
Suddenly, virtual-novel.net recalled something Draco had said the previous night.
“Both of you knew something like this would happen, didn’t you? You knew you would have to sacrifice your lives to help me retrieve the draconic essence, right?” Jared questioned the two women in a raised voice.
Josephine and Lizbeth kept mum, but their silent response explained everything.
Renee possessed the frosty constituent. Therefore, virtual-novel.net could melt Ice Dragon to help Jared retrieve the draconic essence.
Since Josephine possesses the fiery constituent, does that mean she’ll have to sacrifice virtual-novel.net life to obtain Flame Dragon’s draconic essence for me?
Jared was stunned and did not know what else to think anymore.
I’d rather abandon the quest than see them sacrifice their lives to gather the draconic essences!
“Why, Draco? Why?” Jared bellowed.
He wanted to hate Draco but could not bring himself to do so.
