CH 251

I take the chilly potion bottle and open it.

There’s a lot on my mind, but this might give me clues as to Taula’s whereabouts and the mysterious demons. So even though it’s a dangerous gamble, I decide to save her.

I open the bottle and tilt it, making a sparkling golden liquid start dropping.

This is a special item made with a solution of thickly concentrated magic elements. If Seilook was here to see this, it would be smacking the ground with its tail in excitement.

I pour it all over the charred body of Lily.

As the potion touches the body and spreads, carbonized skin peels and falls. The body below quickly regenerates into a beautiful skin color.

And then, Lily’s body starts convulsing violently. I quickly move to place this body in an horizontal position.

What I feel in my hands almost makes my face twitch. But then I feel frustrated at myself for reacting this way in a situation like this, and hold my expression through sheer force of will.

Then I start hearing a heavy, damp cough.

A sludge that looks like a lump of roots mixed with blood starts oozing out of Lily’s mouth.

I assume it’s what fused Lily and the ‘Third Seat of Immorality’ from the inside. It stopped working due to the death of the ‘Third Seat of Immorality’, and it’s being expelled by the potion as a foreign object.

This discharge isn’t stopping.

In fact, Lily’s body trembles and lets out even more. It’s so much that it feels like the entire inside of the body is coming out. It’s piling up on the ground, and still isn’t stopping.

I grab Lily’s legs and pull her body away from the pile of discharge, that looks like it will collapse at any moment, and sprinkle another bottle of my highest quality potion.

I could make her drink it, but in this state, she’d probably just spit it out right away.

I keep observing for a while, and I guess it reached the peak, because Lily is gradually relaxing. She’s not regaining consciousness though.

I try using a 《Transcribe》 scroll again, but it’s still garbled.

“I don’t think I have any other choice but to carry her. Should I call Hipopo?”

I activate a scroll to manifest Hipopo.

Of course, the dungeon’s rules render me unable to call it normally. But in order to overcome these restrictions, I also take out the bottle of purifying light I put away just now.

“…It’s this bottle, isn’t it?”

I mumble in surprise.

The purifying light inside the bottle has changed a lot in this short amount of time.

It’s still glowing with a pale light, but it’s taken a form that I can only describe as a small person.
