"He treats the brush like a sacred relic, which means he absolutely won't allow anyone else to claim it," Felix said, his voice firm.
With that, he grabbed the brush in his hand. Instantly, a roar erupted from far away, by Alfie's alarmed shout.

"Damn it! The creature's turning back!"
Selmer instinctively wanted to flee, but seeing Felix remain motionless, he did not dare move either. Disobeying his master in such a moment would be nothing short of betrayal.
"Step back," Felix said, his tone steely. "At this point, I have no choice but to take a gamble!"
As the creature rushed back toward them, Felix's suspicions seemed increasingly accurate. If they did not solve this now, Nala would not be the only one dead. In fact, everyone who had come into contact with the brush-himself included-would eventually be hunted down.
If this also involved its presence, that might mean Luna and the others were not safe, either.
"Mr. Zeller, just... be careful!" Selmer shouted, his voice heavy. Deep down, he had already prepared himself for death.
Felix's demise would likely trigger his own, as well as the deaths of others bound to him by the Soul Sealing Needle.
Within moments, a wave of force swept through the area, the product of the creature's relentless charge. It was so intense that even an elephant would have been tossed into the air like a rag doll.
To say Felix was not afraid would have been a lie. Yet, with no other options, he stood his ground, steeling himself for what lay ahead.
This was not mere desperation-it was a calculated risk. The first time Felix held the brush, it had stopped trembling altogether, becoming inert, like any ordinary object.
Nala had noticed it, too. When she held the brush, it appeared still on the surface, but she could still sense a faint vibration.

Only in Felix's grip did the brush fall completely silent. He did not know what this meant, he was willing to bet everything on it.

Suddenly, the creature came into view, stopping about 16 feet away. Selmer's heart was in his throat as he braced for an attack.
However, something strange happened. The creature did not move closer or strike. Instead, it seemed to hesitate, studying Felix intently.
As Felix's pulse quickened, he felt something shift within him. Six distinct streams of energy began to flow out from his body, coiling around the brush in his hand.

"This... Is this the energy from the six Dragonspines?" Felix murmured to himself, realizing the source of the power.
The creature recoiled, stumbling backward several steps, as though startled. Then, without warning, it dropped to its knees.
"My liege! My liege!" it cried out, its voice trembling with reverence.
Alfie and Nala arrived just in time to witness the scene, their jaws dropping. Moments ago, this creature had been an unstoppable force, yet now, it knelt before Felix, calling him "my liege"?
Felix stood frozen, his mind racing. He did not understand what was happening, but the fact that the creature had ceased its attack was a victory in itself.
"Are you... talking to me?" Eelix asked, his voice uncertain.
The creature continued bowing, its forehead repeatedly hitting the ground. "My liege! My liege!"
Everyone knew that term was an archaic way to address a ruler, a phrase long buried with the age of monarchs. In modern times, one might see it in a fantasy movie or online roleplay, but to hear it spoken aloud in such a way was downright surreal. And yet, here it was.
Before Felix could even respond, the creature raised its right hand. With a swift motion, it cut away its matted hair, letting it fall to the ground. Then, it slammed its he
once more.
"General Benjamin Stone, awaiting your judgment, my liege!"
