The Empress didn\'t respond to Eren, only whispering something. The ground beneath her trembled as she called forth a wave of water from the earth, twisting it into a snake-like form that coiled around her like a spirit.

With a flick of her wrist, the water dragon lunged at Eren, its jaws wide open and ready to devour.

Eren simply raised an eyebrow, the faintest smirk playing at the corners of his mouth. As the water dragon closed in, he reached out with a hand, and the air trembled around him. The dragon halted, frozen mid-attack, as if caught in an invisible net.

"Not bad," Eren acknowledged, his voice smooth and calm. "However, are you sure you want to fight instead of running away? I\'m sure you realize that I\'m not the only person of interest in this city, right?"

The Sea Dragon Empress gritted her teeth, frustration mixed with her anger. "Are you talking about the Holy Priestess? It is fine. I can still kill you, still leave before she comes."

"Urgh." Eren scratched the back of his head, as if unsure how to respond. "I believe your words would have been meaningful before I came here. Let me ask you another question in that case."

"Enough of your delaying tactics!" The Sea Dragon Empress rose up in the sky, flying straight toward Eren.

Eren simply smiled in response, not even moving an inch from his original place. As she already hated him, he knew he couldn\'t win over her as the person who killed her brother. He didn\'t plan to do that either.

Still, he continued his question that he had talked about, "Did you think I was the one who stopped that water snake you created using Dragon Tongue?"

"Hmm?" The Sea Dragon Empress was halfway when her eyes narrowed at Eren\'s words. He wasn\'t the one who blocked her snake to protect her herself? In that case, wasn\'t it...?

The moment she thought about it, her expressions darkened. She had thought that she might be able to leave if she was able to kill Eren fast enough. She didn\'t realize that it was already useless the moment Eren appeared here, especially since he wasn\'t alone.

The moment she realized it, a holy aura descended over her body, forcefully pulling her back to the ground, her body slamming on the hard floor.

At the same time, the Holy Domain appeared around her body, entrapping the entire space within the domain of the Holy Priestess which weakened every other living being except the Holy Priestess.

Eren watched from above like a spectacle that was playing out. Even though she had crashed hard, the Holy Priestess was still unharmed because of her firm physique. Still, the situation was as bad as it could be for her.

Behind the Sea Dragon Empress, the Holy Priestess had appeared, her long golden robe fluttering with the wind, untouched by even a single speck of dust.

\'At this rate, can she even make her bleed?\' Up on the roof, Eren sighed at the scene below.

He had even made it clear to the Sea Dragon Empress that he wasn\'t alone, giving her various hints. It was all in an attempt to lead her into attacking the Holy Priestess to at least make her bleed.

Unfortunately, he had underestimated her hatred towards him. In her anger, the Sea Dragon Empress stopped thinking rationally, only justifying her actions.

If she was truly rational, she would have realized that she can\'t fight him and still escape before the Holy Priestess arrived. If she was rational, she would have preferred to run away at the sight of him, especially since she already knew that he met the Holy Priestess.

\'Love and hatred truly makes people blind. She already has hatred... I wonder if love will work as effectively. I suppose I can only test later. If it doesn\'t work, all my plans would go to waste.\'

Silently, Eren watched the battle if it could even be called that. It was more like the Sea Dragon Empress was being toyed with.

Firstly, the Sea Dragon Empress was already under the effect of a Sealed Bloodline which made her weaker than an Overlord in terms of absolute strength.

Secondly, she was in the Domain of the Holy Priestess which further weakened her while strengthening the Holy Priestess.

And lastly, there was no ocean in sight. As the Sea Dragon Empress, she could only display her true strength in the Ocean which was her home. In the land, she had lost that privilege.

Everything that could go wrong had gone wrong.

While fighting, the Sea Dragon Empress always looked at a disadvantage. Eren felt slightly bad for her, especially from the moment he realized why she was actually being hunted.

It was only after he had talked to the Holy Priestess that he found out how it all started. Only then did he realize that the Holy Priestess had taken the blame for his actions without even realizing it.

\'I am truly the bane for your existence.\' Eren rubbed his forehead, watching the battle drawing to an end.

From the beginning to the end, the Sea Dragon Empress didn\'t even manage to leave a single scratch on the Priestess\' body which was disappointing for Eren. Still, it wasn\'t a complete loss.

He had no one to teach him how to use the Dragon Tongue. He had learned everything himself by analyzing some of the spells. Now that he watched the Sea Dragon Empress use it, his understanding of the Dragon Tongue had only increased.

Another thing he noticed was that the Sea Dragon Empress had a better understanding of the Dragon Tongue but she wasn\'t able to draw out as much strength as he could, even though she was stronger than him.

He wondered if it was because of the seal which he didn\'t have.
