Disappointment

The sustained energy needed to fortify the defense against the relentless barrage of these powerful creatures could exhaust even the most proficient magic users. Unless the demi-humans had meticulously stored an ample reserve of mana over the years within their isolation, the barrier's ability to withstand the storm dragons' assaults could have been in jeopardy.

"They should know that the dragon god attacked me, so they should know that the dragon god is ignoring them," Rain thought. "This one is different from the one that pushed away thousands of years ago… the question is, do they know that?"

In the end, Rain moved away from the area and then decided to sleep until night came. He didn't have much time to rest in the last few days, after all, so that pause was welcomed.
