The underground dimension was deadly silent. The lights of the Nightly Pearls, like snow, fell on his body.
He felt a bit cold and suddenly, he felt very tired. He knew whatever he was going to do was simply a waste of time, so he stopped trying to stand up, and even stopped thinking what would happen next. He raised his head, looked at the terrifying mountain-like dragon’s head with a calm and relieved composure.
“It seems that my master is right, I am truly unfortunate.”
He did not know if this black dragon could understand the human language or not but he thought, such a noble creature, even if it could understand, it would feel shameful to listen. Because of this, Chen Chang Sheng spoke the words that he never told anyone before to the black dragon.
“I have an incurable disease.”
“I can’t live past twenty.”
“Master is the best doctor in the continent and my medical skill is not bad but, we both can’t cure it.”
“This disease is more fatal than any fatal disease. It’s not a disease, but fate.”
“I am unfortunate.”
