50 Arias dream (2/2)

The dream became a distant blur and harder to recall after she was awake. It was also like a jumbled puzzle that was hard to follow but she at least understood the tragedy of the girl's life. She did want to become like that.

To live without regrets…

With that thought she wanted to bury herself into Leon's arms tightly and not let go, but her arms grabbed at nothing and realized she was alone in bed. Leon was already gone, and the sun was shining brightly in the sky outside.

...

Crawford campus, training field. The students gathered early again. The awakened students have recovered from their fatigue, but the ordinary students were not. They felt sore all over their body and their legs felt like jelly. Their bodies weren't well trained and would take up to 2 weeks to recover from aching muscles naturally. Unfortunately, the instructor wouldn't give them that much time. If continuously pushed beyond their limit, they may have a chance at natural awakening.

”Looks like I'm the last one to the party.” Leon walked over to the group with a smile.

Fatty Ben, Rachel and Lynne were all present.

”Hmm? What's wrong with you, Lynne?” Leon immediately noticed something was wrong with Lynne. She had tried to hide it, but it did not escape Leon's sharp eyes.

Her face was pale, and she was feeling lethargic and fragile like a stalk of grass that sways at the slightest blow of the wind.

”I-I'm fine.” Lynne said weakly and panicked, while taking a step back. With Leon's medical expertise, he could easily discover something was wrong with her. However, she did not want her problem to be known by her rival in front of her. Her step back lacked strength and made her fall backwards.

Leon swiftly took a step forward and grabbed her wrist and pull her back up before she could hit the ground. He felt her pulse and his expression turn grave. Her hand felt very cold. In fact, it was bone chilling cold. Even without fully checking her condition, he could guess why she had become like this. She had overdosed on the awakening pills, but since Leon was unfamiliar with the aftereffects of awakening pill overdose. He could not come up with a cure on the spot.

It was a miracle that she was alive until now. If Lynne didn't breakthrough to the 3rd step, she would have died without a doubt. She was left unconscious overnight after all. The body strengthening benefits brought be breakthroughs allowed her to last until now. But it came with a strange mutation. She was originally burning up when she took the pills, but all she could feel now is icy cold. Her water seed had gone out of control and became frozen. The cold energy leaked to the rest of her body.

”Your body is in such critical condition and you say you are fine?” Leon tone was harsh and stern. She was nominally his fiancée. How would he answer to her grandpa if something happens to her?

Being rebuked by Leon, tears welled up in her eyes.

Seeing her expression, he softens up and sighed. ”You are too impatient and reckless for success.”

”Mmm.” Lynne lowered her head.

”Is it that serious? How do you know? Can you treat her?” Rachel bombarded him with questions, but she was genuinely concern. She did not know about Leon's medical expertise, but she chooses not to doubt his words. Leon wouldn't talk nonsense when he is serious. However, the more she learns, the less she understood him.

Lynne was touched by her concern and thought there was no point in being rivals. Someone as excellent as Leon was bound to have more than one woman by his side.

”Yes and no. I can treat the symptoms but not the root.” Leon answered after some thought. It was not a problem to expel the cold energy in her body, but the core problem was her frozen water seed. If it was not treated then cold energy would continue to spread in her body.

But it was too close to Lynne's soul core and anything that involved the soul core had to be treated with utmost care. If he was careless and cause irreparable damage to her soul, it'll be too late for regrets.

”Please help her.”

Leon nodded. It goes without saying. He was about to begin treatment, but his hands paused briefly by a loud voice.

”ATTENTION! Line up neatly for your roll call!” Instructor Eugene arrived on the field and roared in a volume that everyone could hear.
