A woman named Vivian visits Adrian in the Mana Crystal Prison, a death row facility, to offer him compensation, including a vast sum of gold, a legendary curse orb, and a bottle of dragon blood elixir. Her guard, Brandon, is stopped from attacking Adrian, and Vivian reminds Adrian of his lowly status. Adrian defiantly rejects all the treasures, calling them trash and useless. Furious, Vivian leaves the valuable items behind as charity for 'a dog' and departs. Alone, Adrian reveals his true power by dismissing the elixir as a diluted failure, and an urgent letter arrives concerning a woman named Corinne, which immediately enrages him.
