Chapter 600: Recovery (1/2)

”Well, that should do it.” Raven murmured as he placed the unconscious War Gods at their respective tents while making sure that the Cleansing Rune remained in effect.

At first he was worried after seeing them lose consciousness all of a sudden but after another inspection, he found out that there's nothing wrong with them and them losing consciousness is actually a good sign.

Raven analyzed the poison that invaded their systems and managed to find out that except for the fact that it could wither their vitalities from within, fueled with Poison Laws, the poison also managed to penetrate their nervous system and take control of their minds, effectively making them no less than mindless puppets. This is why the War Gods weren't responding to him.

The reason why they didn't attack them is because the poison hasn't penetrated that deep enough to their nervous system therefore it wasn't fully in control yet. As the War Gods saw Raven as an ally, of course they wouldn't attack him.

That being said though, had Raven been one step late on figuring out that they were poisoned, the worst might've happened. Raven wasn't afraid of stopping all four of them since he was confident that he could do that, what he feared is that there might be another layer of poison that will be trigger once they fight.

The War Gods were already sufficiently weakened, their bodies won't be able to endure another poison and in result, they might die from that...

Thankfully, everything was over. With Cleansing Rune working overtime in addition to the natural immunity of their bodies, the Poison Laws should be flushed out of their system in no time.

”Now, I truly wonder what happened inside.” Raven murmured to himself. ”Of course it's a given that they encountered something or someone that's blessed with high-tiered Poison Laws, but what is it exactly? How come all of them were affected? Questions for later I guess.”

Indeed, these are questions for later. Right now, he had to make sure that the War Gods are safe and could rest nice and easy. For that, of course he had something prepared.

He created another set of Incense Sticks which could release a relaxing smoke. The smoke didn't need to be inhaled to take effect, it just needs to be in the close proximity with a person.

Raven lit up the incense sticks and placed them inside their tents, allowing the smoke to be enclosed within and take full effect on them. This will allow them to relax and fall to an even deeper sleep where their injuries will recover much faster.

From what he observed earlier, the Poison Laws did mess up their bodies from the inside. Although their external injuries already healed, it will take an even longer time for them to recover from their internal ones, specially since it was afflicted by Poison Laws. The Cleansing Rune wouldn't cure that nor would the smoke. Their natural recoveries will work but it will take them years if they were to rely on that alone.

Therefore, Raven decided to cook some more nutritious meals. This time, he didn't hold back. He made sure to fill each plate with a highly nutritious meal that, when digested, will boost their natural recovery to an absurd degree without any side-effects.

Although he could do other roundabout ways to do this, he believed that this is the best approach since it's the most satisfying one. Eating a meal to recover sounds more attractive than having them sit with backs faced against him as he cured them manually.

Of course, there's no way that Raven would sacrifice the taste of the food he makes. His pride wouldn't allow him to do that.

A couple of days passed before the War Gods woke up after another. As soon as they got out of their tents, they immediately seduced by the enticing smell of food. Their stomachs rumbled at the scent of food, looking a bit further, they saw Raven preparing meals for them while gesturing them to come over to the table.

Eating his delicious meals for quite some time now, there's no way that the War Gods would refuse this invitation. All of them wordlessly sat down on the table and waited for Raven to finish up serving the food.

Seeing mountains of scrumptious food in front of them, the War Gods couldn't help but swallow hard. Raven chuckled and gestured for them to help themselves. Again without saying a word, the War Gods began stuffing their mouths, eating like there was no tomorrow.

”So good!!”

”This is the best.”

*Nom* *Nom* *Nom*

”You'll make a good husband...”

The War Gods commented as they devoured the food in front of them. Raven casually smiled at the sight of the food mountain shrinking at a pace visible to the naked eye. Raven already anticipated the intensity of their hunger so he prepared more food than usual.

Of course he didn't miss the chance to observe their conditions while they're at it. If he didn't, then he's completely missing the point of feeding them this highly nutritious food.

With his ocular technique active, and the War Gods not raising their guards up, he managed to inspect their internal conditions from where he stood. He sighed in relief as he saw his food turning into pure forms of energies that healed their internal injuries at a visible pace.
