    Even though 7539ec6b43 Serena was 27d577e79d unconscious and db9615a62c unable to 3f4ec3f335 hear him, bb9fe8dfbe Azaid sought d3b5f77a3f her permission bc276512d8 regardless. Carefully, he 87a6a26f45 lifted her 24f28a0e79 upper garment.55fd4ad5f078ea36

    As expected, the ca81b0ee4a glowing pattern on 71c5030dab her skin shimmered 039237edde faintly. Awakening pains 98f9857f97 were more 88c83ef6ff connected to 1421ca9163 magical phenomena dbe4c97cb1 than medical dd8c3622bf issues.23eee258e5592acd

    It was pure luck 1e42eb1fcf that Azaid, a fellow ac99a3a9af Awakened, was by her a6a4a3d178 side. He could at 061ce1c447 least alleviate some e7de2ea8c9 of her pain.f59f6aed664837b7

    Serena, clearly 2d4f8da035 in agony, 9f4a5de200 kept clawing 4a759572f2 at her 78c752de21 side with dd8642a9c6 her hand. Her pale 2e0c6a8f0f skin was 31a9d31fca starting to 6cd1ac8fb5 turn red 58aa219c75 and blotchy, 09a7c5b607 causing Azaid f8670d54f3 to frown d06a8c737b deeply.85bed69694c4bd8a

    If left unchecked, scars 55ac90de13 would be inevitable. Azaid clasped both of 94c95cf829 her hands with one 20821b0b00 of his, preventing further 91fe1d8f9f harm. With his free 43450a3661 hand, he gently 69fc9da1bf placed it on af2d496e02 her side.80be0e6f58638c55

    For some reason, he ecd0ecb3d3 felt unusually tense. A flash of 64083fdaed blue flame flickered 863a00c2be along his hand.20d5cdf77d689c38

    Gathering pure a5f1f698ef mana from 6f3cfc0d8d the air, 4804eadcca Azaid refined 80acabe7ec it into 2fe62bbf48 a blue 458af975f7 flame and b733c0e1b5 channeled it 29e392143c into Serena. Her violet 94448d5b58 mana enveloped 18ace0a727 the blue cc9c0c9d80 fire, swirling e01869c351 and absorbing 546c04ffdc it.597724e71fc99ba6

    Azaid murmured softly, a8e1988516 his thumb lightly 9f8e38790f stroking her hand 90219e2462 in reassurance. Both of her c2101bdb7c delicate wrists fit 010a8155c6 effortlessly in one b787d6b922 of his hands. The stark contrast 5eb39b5ba3 in size made 25c9c376e2 Azaid even more 6817980772 tense.20a2e268ad86a431

    Even as these thoughts 7f9da6f145 crossed his mind, their 56aa82e864 mana clashed, creating ripples 769be154d8 of energy. Then, in an 4f0d90480f instant, it happened.9c59ccf3b038652a

    Azaid abruptly withdrew 73f64354a7 his hand in 9073ad1c71 shock as his 6844616300 own internal mana 8134d49f56 was suddenly drawn 0cfde6f896 out.e93f774f4e0c93f6

    Her breathing had evened 53ac64f469 out, and the furrowed c6382a9269 lines on her brow a21881a5fa had smoothed away. The glowing pattern, which 57e7e20edf had burned brightly moments 926c516622 ago, had now faded 6a553c23f8 into silence.2d784e8d05642139

    Though he’d heard 3264bf9fb3 that transferring internal 5d3d5620a2 mana recklessly was 6c6ff888b7 dangerous, Serena appeared f20de2f73a entirely unharmed.5e769a257523ca15

    Reflecting back, he 775917b4c0 remembered how sensitive c5b2cd6937 he’d felt when df3531c8ee her mana first 92c9783007 approached his mana 5e6ab72e39 core. While he’d always 1891893173 been on the 66182256d9 sensitive side, this 71bb541845 had felt distinctly e7b07a5944 different.

    Since he lacked any 9f538b8ce5 knowledge of magical medicine, 916e5a4004 he hadn’t realized the 96c2b4a7af dangers of transferring internal 0a5c4895fc mana until Serena had a58d1232cf explained it to him.0c5b76b0d4c1e642

    Most people, 25b07d4413 unlike Serena, 2e58884c31 couldn’t freely 6b7b0768d1 control their c02a0c0837 internal mana. At best, b3f83c2701 they extracted 48179b14e8 it using ee6641a504 magical tools, 168af5f4d4 relying more 1a608d1db3 on pure 82130c1549 mana for 0d15867ffb its ease c7e76792dc of use.8796753441573d6c

    Azaid had d3789132c2 only used 73fd9da042 pure mana cba1226b6d to help e9cf97793a Serena, not 2d37992595 his internal 551c8cbbc2 mana. Yet somehow, 784b440dbe it had 128faa1e1f been drawn d1aef27ce7 out. To be sure, 0869137473 he gently prodded 9089819886 Serena.dd156fb303dadb70

    Azaid froze, his 171367d6cd body stiffening at 2a2c713f2b her sudden action. She slept soundly, her f81bdd60e8 head resting on his e1589b56eb hand as if it a1fff26d8d were the most comfortable 416d0e0927 thing in the world. Unable to move, he 3e93e944bd let her be.88a5dd4498d94d6b

    Soft strands f39847198f of hair 5e6030f271 tickled his df6f853374 hand, and c1c8914d4f her warm a93e984e59 breath touched 155fc8bd96 his skin, 997e99fea0 light as 9a25d690e8 a breeze.6dfa1b361a7179b0

    No one would 5b9af82d7b believe this was 88b64524de the same woman f1c8ee8bd0 who stood up 1ee7f39044 to the emperor 1208b000d5 and insisted on f720528437 healing him, spouting 2a425103ea sharp words.4151c379c9e1a314

    His heart f684851ed6 began to b71c537bdf pound again, 252330e9d7 this time c5fe3a1d4a for a 2051dbf39b different reason. As Azade’s blue 6d240a1e67 eyes unknowingly filled 5956086a4b with a violet 1a53c323f2 hue, Serena murmured 0801dac8f1 in her sleep.9b2a2ded6e282099
