He reacted in that manner because he realized the girl resembled Renee. They looked so similar that Jared even reckoned they weren't just alike and that the girl was, indeed, Renee.
“Renee! Renee...”
Jared dashed forward as if he had lost his mind. Renee was encased in the Ice Seal because she wanted to save me.
He had always felt guilty for the fate that befell her, so he yearned to rescue her.
Unexpectedly, Renee had shown up right in front of him at that place.
Still, no matter how Jared shouted, she didn't react because no one could see him.
A few moments later, she suddenly scanned her surroundings as if she had heard him calling her.
Overjoyed, Jared continued yelling her name at the top of his lungs, but right after he began to do so, a deafening sound originated from outside.
Immediately afterward, the entire palace shook.
Everyone's facial expression tensed. All of them, including Renee, withdrew their weapons while rearranging their facial features into a determined look as if they knew what was about to happen.
Under the intense quake, the two dragons circling the two pillars on the side of the palace came to life and started hovering in the air.
Jared widened his eyes at the two dragons in midair.
“A-Are they the Ice Dragon and Flame Dragon?”
He identified the two colossal dragons in a glance.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, a thunderous rumble reverberated in the air, and the palace shook even more violently.
While everyone rushed out of the palace, Jared's body floated upward to the sky.
He had gained an aerial view of the war that was about to begin.
“Renee! Renee...”
Screaming hysterically, Jared wanted to rush over, but he noticed there was no way he could approach the palace beneath him after he was elevated to midair.
The entire palace seemed to be encapsulated by an invisible force.
There were countless cadavers and demon beast carcasses all over the place. The merman wearing a crown appeared to have sustained severe injuries as he slowly walked into the palace.
He mustered all his strength to seat himself on the throne. However, when his skin made contact with the throne, his body became instantaneously petrified.
A crack formed in the middle of the small island, causing Bliss City to sink deep into the sea before the island resealed and trapped Bliss City beneath it.
Ice Dragon and Flame Dragon, both gravely wounded, let out a mighty dragon roar before plummeting toward the small island.
As the Ice Dragon plunged, it disintegrated into innumerable frost, and its draconic essence fell into a deep pool.
The place where Flame Dragon crashed into began to rise in temperature and became unbearably hot. Soon, a half-freezing and half-scorching phenomenon became of the small island, and that was how Dragon Island came to be.
