Chapter 2029 - Hope (2/2)
”This is an important place, Patrick,” Old woman said while casting a glance at me; the old man just nodded without saying anything.
”Grand Tower Mistress, thank you for saving our son; without your help, he would not have been standing with us,” Mother said.
”We have paid huge prize to do that, little girl; I hope your son understands it,” Old woman said without messing up her words. Mother seeds to understand what she meant as her eyes shot up in shock; the same reaction comes across the old man who came with her.
”You mean?” Mother asked with a slightly shaking voice, and old women just nodded. ”I will make sure Micheal understands that Grand Tower Mistress,” Mother said. I am quite curious about what they are talking about, but I did not ask; it is not the time.
”Micheal, I had readied the top floor of the infirmary,” Teacher said as we finished with the small talk. ”There is no need for an infirmary teacher; my home would be enough,” I said with a smile, surprising quite a lot of people.
The surprise on the people's faces hadn't worn off when we disappeared from my spot and appeared on the patio of my house.
”Mom, it is time to destroy the curse from your body,” I said as I took her hands into mine.
She visibly shook hearing it, and I could only guess what effects my words might have been having on her right now.
While I have the same curse as she has, and mine was even more dangerous due to it being sentient, it did not trouble me much, except for giving me constant fear of it consuming me, but a mother is different.
Th curse has sealed her powers and made her weak as a knight; if not for her constantly fighting with the curse and numerous sealing methods employed in her body that kept the curse at bay, she would have been consumed by it already.
”It is not easy to destroy that curse, young man. The greatest healers of the world have tried decades ago and were powerless again it.” The old man that came with my mother said
”Now, the curse had spread into the very essence of your monther, bonded with her very life itself; it is very hard, near impossible to cure this curse,” He added.
”Lord Patric is right; the curse had merged with my very being,” Mom said with a tear dripping out from her left eye.
I know the curse of a mother is dangerous and spread to her deepest. Teacher had tried it, but she was not able to reach much deeper due to the power of the curse being too great, always repelling any efforts to heal her.
Still, I have some confidence, the curse is the most heavies subject Ive ever researched, and thanks to some of the books I have read in the Hermes library, I have devised a method, which gives me some confidence in healing my mother's curse, not to mention I now have a secrete weapon.
”Would you at least let me try?” I had asked her.. ”Of course, if there is anyone in the world who has a hope to heal my curse then, its you, my son,” She said as she placed her hand on my cheeks.
