Elaru sat down cross-legged on the rug before taking out a pillbox from her backpack She opened the box which contained three candy-like pills As she picked one up, she felt a faers So this is what happened to that Feather of a Firebird I got for uncle Ixos

Initially, she had thought that plucking a feather fro candy froiven her unexpected trouble It wasn’t that finding a firebird was hard for her, it wasn’t that she couldn’t approach it or sneak attack it No, the problem was quite peculiar:

A firebird didn’t have any feathers

Where normal birds would have feathers, firebird was covered with flames instead She lost count of how many times she cursed whoever named the item as the “Feather of a Firebird”

Elaru shook her head Misleading Totally !Then, without hesitation, she popped the pill into her mouth and sed it down

As soon as the candy reached her stomach, it h the walls of the sto directly into her bloodstream

Through her blood, it quickly spread to every nook and cranny of her body

It was as if a flame had been lit up inside her The war her up Her skin turned reddish and hot to the touch Sweat started pouring down her forehead like a waterfall

The war her fro feels like

Searing pain assaulted her senses She closed her eyes and took long breaths, her body posture shi+fted to that of h her body ached, her face was the definition of cal neither pain nor worry

Te medicine was the kind of le glance for her to be able to tell that this particular pill was a quasi-te medicine

Quasi-te medicine didn’t actually teed the body in a beneficial way that would ultimately result in improved mana resistance and tolerance

This pill tried to make the composition of one’s body closer to the body of a firebird Not only was its flesh resistant to fire, but it also had a better el and elibu

The firebird was always on fire, and its body consumed a lot of mana to sustain the flames This increased consuel and elibu, caused its body to excel in channeling mana

This pill used the flame of the firebird to burn away all impurities within the body Afterwards, itthe flesh of a firebird as a reference

The ie ofthese useless particles was desirable It was a si useless iold be able to shi+ne resplendently

The burning pain persisted for several hours before starting to subside By that ti with her clothes on She looked down at her sorry state, sighed and then proceeded to cast a cleansing

After she was sparkling clean again, she got up frohter, and her skin was even more radiant than before It was so sive a baby a run for its money (If babies had money)

This should have removed the last bit of iht This is indeed a miracle medicine

After all the i pills she’d consumed, her body had almost no impurities left It had reached the point in which no other medicine could ied to remove the left over impurities that all others couldn’t was a testament to its extraordinary value

She wanted to test how much her mana resistance and tolerance improved, but she needed to let her body recover to its best state first She wanted to take another pill, but that also had to wait for her body to completely recover

She looked at Kiel, as still soundlessly sleeping Technically, he wasn’t unconscious anymore Because he was exhausted fro, his lack of consciousness had somehow turned into deep sleep He would probably wake up in the y

She looked back at the pill box she was holding in her hand, and then looked back at Kiel

Say…Isn’t that ice block over there in a need of te pills? What a coincidence!

Elaru chuckled softly No When it coht not be any coincidences at all…

She didn’t think about it for long before concluding: I’ll leave one of the pills for him He is my soulmate now I should treat him with more sincerity

These types of pills that per returns when consu on the type of the pill and the body of the person consu it, the second pill would at most reach 40 effectiveness of the first pill The third pill would at most reach 15, and the fourth would barely reach 3

Therefore, even the rich nobles wouldn’t squander money to make their heirs take the fourth pill At most, if the person in question was extreive them three pills

This was exactly the reason why uncle Ixos gave her only three pills

Elaru grinned widely as she looked at Kiel’s peaceful face It’s your lucky day le strand of hair burned by the blasted firebird and you still get to enjoy a priceless treasure of a medicine

Tsk…tsk…and you were even co how horrible it is to be stuck with me…
