Becoming Their Guiding Spirit

Hellagur left without any hesitation. Shining and the others also quickly went out. They were now extremely curious as to how these two young ladies would treat this little Infected girl who seemed to have no hope of rescue.

The door closed.

FrostNova quickly went to draw the curtains.

At this moment, the little girl was too weak, so weak that she was barely conscious. Lucas promptly left Alina’s body and entered the little girl’s. Her soul within was in a terrible state.

During the acute phase of Oripathy, the Originium fragments were like countless needles, constantly stabbing the little girl’s internal organs. Lucas didn’t hesitate and immediately used his ability. With the injection of a special power, the incredibly violent Originium crystals slowly, slowly became docile.

This process lasted for a full half hour.

During this half hour, Lucas continuously used his ability to pacify the Originium crystals in the little girl’s body, putting them into a temporary dormant state, as if coaxing a child. Due to his full concentration, even as a soul, Lucas was exhausted.

Finally...

After another twenty minutes.

The Originium crystals in the little girl’s body finally settled down and entered a state of slumber.

At this point.

After the Originium crystals in her body were brought under Lucas’s control, the intense pain inside the little girl finally stopped. Lucas quickly exited the girl’s body, returned to Alina’s, and cast [Mirror Flower, Water Moon] to create a different memory of the treatment for the little girl.

Phew...

Lucas breathed a sigh of relief.

To an outsider, it might not seem like much. However, after entering the little girl’s body, Lucas was truly exhausted. If not for his own soul power being inherently strong, if he had the soul strength of when he first awakened, he would probably be so tired he’d want to sleep immediately.

At this moment.

Hellagur was waiting anxiously outside the door.

Finally.

The door to the hospital room opened.

Hellagur, Shining’s group of three, and many of the children praying nearby all crowded around, their eyes wide as they waited for Lucas’s answer.

”Miss Alina... how is the child’s condition....”

Hellagur asked slowly.

In reality, he had already given up all hope and just wanted a clear answer from Lucas.

”She’s fine now. You can go in.”

Lucas said casually, as if he had just done something very minor.

Sigh~

A long sigh escaped Hellagur’s lips. In that instant, he seemed to age even more. The surrounding children were now sobbing.

”Thank you, Miss Alina, Miss FrostNova, for coming all this way. I’m sure the child would be incredibly grateful to you....”

”???”

Huh?

At this moment.

Lucas, standing by the door, felt his eye twitch. A million question marks flashed over his head.

”Are you guys... crying for the wrong reason?”

Lucas retorted.

”Sigh... Miss Alina, everyone has their own fate. Over the years, we’ve already...”

”Huh?!!!”

Hellagur hadn’t even finished his sentence when he suddenly realized that what Lucas had just said wasn’t ’my condolences’, but ’she’s fine now’!!

”Huh! Huh!!!”

Hellagur’s eyes widened in disbelief. His usually golden and sharp gaze instantly turned from a hawk’s to an owl’s.

”I’m sorry... Miss Alina, I’d like to go in and see for myself...”

With that said.

Lucas stepped aside, clearing a path for Hellagur. Hellagur rushed in, and not just him; Shining’s group of three anxiously followed behind. The group of children waiting outside also eagerly rushed in.

When Hellagur saw the little girl lying on the bed, though still a bit weak, but otherwise fine, he was too moved to speak.

”Grandpa Hellagur!”

The little girl waved at Hellagur. He quickly walked over, held the little girl in his arms, and gently ruffled her hair.

Really...

She was really saved!!!

At that moment.

The children in [Azazel] erupted in excited cheers. The intense psychological whiplash was like being sentenced to death one second and then being saved the next. Even though the little girl was now sitting by his side behaving as if nothing had happened, Hellagur still felt it was somewhat unreal.

Or rather.

He had never imagined.

That in this world, there was truly a way to suppress Oripathy!!

It wasn’t just Hellagur.

At this moment.

Shining, Liz, and Nearl, who were standing to the side, also had their eyes wide open.
