Chapter 84 - Nascent Soul Realm (1/2)
The whole day was spend helping the grand elder with herbs as he was concocting a pill until it was finally time to call it a day. Jason didn't wait to have a chat with Austin as he was in a hurry to give his mother the pill and knowing how excited he was about being able to heal his mother, Austin just let him go.
It didn't take him much time before he was able to get home.
”Where is mother” asked Jason he saw Hannah coming out of the tent.
”She's inside rest, is there a problem” replied Hannah with a frown.
”Not at all” said Jason with a smile before going in.
The moment he entered the tent, he saw his mother resting with her hand placed on her stomach. Noticing that someone is watching her, she turned her gaze to see who it was only to see that it was Jason.
”You are so early today Jason did the grand elder send you away because you stop going to work” asked Clara since it always gets dark before her son use to come home.
”No mother, it just that there is nothing much for us to do today so I decide to come early” replied Jason with a laugh before going to sit down by her side.
”The grand elder would not let you go home this early either unless you have done something wrong” commented Hannah who rush into the room when she saw the way Jason was acting.
”Actually I came early to give you something” replied Jason as he took out the pouch that was given to him by the grand elder before passing it to his mother.
Taking the pouch from Jason, Clara opened it to peep at what was inside only to see gray pills inside and she turned to look at Jason who still has the smile on his face.
”What is this pill for” asked Clara.
”This pill will surely cure you of your illness” replied Jason.
”A pill that can heal my wound, what a joke” said Clara with a chuckle.
”It true mother, I have to a heavy price just so the grand elder could concoct the pill for you” replied Jason seeing that his mother doubted about the pill healing her.
”What a minute, is this the pill that you and the grand elder were talking about the other day that I went with you” asked Hannah.
”It sure is and as you can see it is finally done now all that is remaining is for mother to take it” replied Jason.
When their mother heard that the grand elder was the one who made the pill, she turn to look at Jason what a painful look on his face as she asked.
”What price do you have to pay for him to waste his time to make the pill because I know you won't be able to pay him if he were to request for money”.
”It not something that will bring us trouble so you don't have to worry mother” reply Jason.
Seeing that Jason was not willing to tell her what the price was, she could only let out a sign before picking a pill from the pouch and threw it into her mouth then closing her eye. About five minutes later, she opened the eye once more before staring at Jason and Hannah.
”So how do you feel now” asked Jason when seeing their mother looking around.
”I still feel the same. See I told you no pill will be able to heal my sickness” replied Clara with a sigh.
”That is not right, it should have healed you so why is it taking so long” said Jason when he heard his mother reply.
”Don't take it to heart son, I know you did all you can…” Replied Clara whose body choke halfway through her words and begin to twitch in pain.
Seeing his mother like this, Jason couldn't help but step forward as he asked worriedly.
”What is wrong mother”.
”I don't know, I just feel my body heating up like a raging volcano” replied Clara as she coils in the bed.
”Hey what is wrong with my mother” asked Jason to the bracelet.
