Apart from Lilith, no one could have foreseen the sudden shift of the fourth bounty.
“Huh? Why?” Erica looked at the three Holy Dragon’s Hearts in her hands and the distant golden light pillar.
“Why did I become the target when I had just three, but not now?” she asked with a perplexed look on her face.
