'I will show it to you, Teacher Denise… I will win this!'
Bam!
His palm thrust forward with his aura rippling like a shockwave.
Sora braced, his physique absorbing the impact, his aura flaring to shield him.
The blow staggered him, but he held firm… Thanks to his Dragon Blood, his muscles tightened, his bones hardened, and weakened the damage in his internal organs.
