Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 585

Why should she risk her life for something that ultimately did not involve her?

The big shots who were watching under the stage remained silent. None stepped forward to express their opinions on the matter. Even Jay said nothing.

“Grandpa, will something bad happen?” Christine asked anxiously. “Jonathan’s medical skills are better than yours. If he says his poison has no cure, it must be true.”

Wearing a grim expression, Jay shook his head. “I don’t know.”

Christine suggested, “Shouldn’t we stop this? Things will get out of control if someone actually ends up dying. After all, the whole country… No… The whole world is watching this live.”

Jay wanted to put an end to this farce.

His pride, however, did not let him back down.

Calling an end to the competition was tantamount to admitting defeat. It would mean that he acknowledged Goryeon Medicine as the superior path of medicine. He would be chastised by his countrymen.

Delilah was hesitant.

James shrugged in annoyance. He turned to look at Thea. “Thea, you do it.”

“What?”

Thea froze.

“I… Umm…”

She was afraid to die too.

Although she had faith in James, the Black Dragon, Jonathan had reiterated that the poison would spread throughout the body and kill its host in just three minutes. Could the Black Dragon really find a cure among the tens of thousands of herbs in three minutes?

Not only that, there was supposedly no cure for the poison.

Seeing that Thea was intimidated, James sighed.

Did he seem so incapable that people were not willing to trust him?

Curing this poison was child’s play for him.

“A-Are you really the Black Dragon?” Delilah questioned.

She wanted to know before she commited.

If James truly was the Black Dragon, she was willing to give it a try.

Even if she paid with her life, her sacrifice would be immortalized for generations to come.
