She destroyed the God of the South Wind by kissing him. She unmade the Goddess of Mercy by weeping on her statue—the tears turned to acid that ate through divine marble.

And she could extract it just by touching them.

To reach the Sun Mother, Akane had to swallow the last, largest drop of the dragon’s original heart—the . It was pure, undiluted god-essence from before the chaining. As soon as it touched her tongue, the dragon’s spirit burst free from her flesh. Dragon Blood - Ryuu no Noroi to Seieki de Kami ...

Ryūjin no Mikoto was not a willing benefactor. He was chained beneath the capital, his wings pinned by seven celestial spears, his mouth forced open by a golden bit. The "Dragon's Blessing" was a lie. It was a curse—a slow, agonized leaching of a god’s life.
