A dark vortex appeared in Liora's palm.
Thin crimson threads like tentacles extended from its center and drilled into the Nine-Headed Hydra's body.
As though they were its veins, they began spreading like a dense network.
The Nine-Headed Hydra could do nothing but watch powerlessly throughout the process.
It was unable to recover from the mental damage it had sustained, much less offer any resistance in the face of Liora's actions.
It could only roar helplessly as Liora activated Predation.
The crimson tentacles began to shake violently.
Yet for the first time, this Unknown-Ranked talent failed to drain her opponent of all its strength.
Liora faced a significant amount of resistance.
Something deep within her opponent was awakening and trying to stop Predation's advance.
Her eyes narrowed.
She urged the World of Heart even further, making the deity's screams even more intense.
The resistance faced by Predation weakened.
However, it didn't fully disappear.
