As time passed, Sylvio quickly made the medicine he needed.
Then, he sat cross-legged and started to recover from the injuries that his soul suffered.
An Overlordâs soul was no joke.
If David had not retracted most of his force in time, a partial Heavenly Overlord like Sylvio might have been killed in seconds.
Even though there was only half a step between partial Heavenly Overlord Rank and Heavenly Overlord Rank, the difference was miles apart.
2 Just like how Sylvio could not offer any resistance against Lufian, it was the same against Davidâs Heavenly Overlord Rank soul.
There would be no difference.
However, only Davidâs soul was at Heavenly Overlord Rank.
In reality, he was still a partial Heavenly Overlord rank.
If they were to fight in reality, David could use his Heavenly Overlord Rank soul power to defeat Sylvio easily.
However, it would be hard if he wanted to kill Sylvio.
After all, his combat power was on the same level as Sylvioâs.
Of course, the result would be obvious if David used his clones.
The pressure of facing dozens of Davidâs clones would not be inferior to facing Lufian, a real Heavenly Overlord.
While Sylvio was recovering, he started to guess who David was.
He wanted to know this young man named David.
He also wanted to know who could cultivate someone so outstanding.
However, Sylvio knew this was not the time.
After he restored Eloraâs soul, he would ask all three of them to sit down for a nice chat.
It would be good if David could defeat Lufian, but if he could not, it would be up to Elora.
It was uncertain if Elora would be willing to see Lufian.
As Sylvio recovered his soul in the secret room, David and Pebbles waited outside silently.
David was clearly at a loss with what he should do with Pebbles.
She had grown up all of a sudden and had matured.
He still preferred Pebbles when she was a child.
Even though she was clingy, at least awkward scenarios like this would not happen.
He wanted to be more affectionate with her, but she had matured into a grown woman.
As the saying goes, a son needs to keep away from his mother, while a daughter needs to keep away from her father.
Whatâs more, they were not even related by blood.
So, they should keep a distance.
Pebbles could see the changes in David, so she asked with a pout, â Davey, whatâs wrong? I just recovered a little and grew up.
Donât you know me? Iâm still your Pebbles.â âHow is that possible? Of course, I know you.
You will always be my little Pebbles,â David answered affirmatively.
âNo, youâre acting differently.
Iâm not an idiot.
Ican see.â The little girl puffed her cheeks and showed dissatisfaction on her face.
âA-Am I? Iâm still the same.
Y-Youâre too sensitive.â David smiled awkwardly.
âNo way! You talk and act completely differently than before.
Back then, you would caress my head immediately, but today, you hesitated.
Davey, do you not like me anymore?â The girl looked as if she was about to burst into tears.
âPebbles, please, stop overthinking.
Iâm just not used to this.â David tried to comfort her.
