"Master!" Heidi exclaimed in alarm, then extended a tentacle to search over him for a few moments before pulling out the "Introduction to Luxurious Arts." She poured Magic Power into it, casting Cure Wounds on him as if it cost nothing!
However, poisoning is a condition that, if not relieved, would continue to drain his life until he perished completely!
In fact, at this very moment, his internal organs, including the heart, liver, kidneys, and lungs, had already shown clear signs of failure due to Cuivis' deadly poison, and this damage was permanent!
"Master instructed, go to Andinie's room!" Yuta said, her petite form erupting with immense strength. She hoisted both Hawthorne and Cuivis, carrying them on her shoulders like feathers. With a light push off the ground, she shot toward Andinie's room like an arrow.
Heidi quickly retracted her tentacles and followed along. The convent was not large, and within seconds, Yuta kicked open the door to Andinie's room, revealing its current state.
In the past, this room had always been dim, damp, and filthy, with various kinds of bugs crawling in the crevices from top to bottom, including the walls.
Even those without a fear of creepy crawlies would find their skin crawling upon entering, and anyone with a slight aversion to uncleanliness would find themselves retching!
But now, all of that was dispelled clean by the purifying white light, leaving the entire room spotless and in a perfectly sterile environment.
In all four corners and the central ceiling of the room stood high-powered lamps, ensuring there were no shadows anywhere.
In the center of the room was an operating table, indicating the room could only accommodate one patient at a time. Next to it was a small table holding tweezers, scalpels, hemostats, scissors, and other medical tools, with shelves beneath stocked full of iodine, alcohol, cotton balls, and gauze, all within easy reach.
On the far wall stood a huge cabinet filled with infrequently used medical supplies, meant to meet all a doctor's needs.
Yuta tossed the unconscious Cuivis onto the floor, then gently placed Hawthorne on the operating table. Turning around, she looked anxiously at the array of unfamiliar medical equipment. "How do we use these? How are we supposed to treat Master?"
Heidi looked just as troubled. She understood nothing of medicine; the buildings Hawthorne had created were always operable only by him. All she could do was watch.
But now Hawthorne was unconscious, how could they restore his consciousness...
"I have an idea!" she suddenly exclaimed, then took the Grimoire, walked over to Cuivis, and held her head, casting Cure Wounds!
In the healing white light, Cuivis slowly opened her bewildered eyes, but before she could realize where she was, Heidi's questioning came down on her like a storm: "Cuivis, how do we cure your poison?"
Cuivis suddenly became alert; having been fully purified, her body and mind were now completely loyal to Hawthorne. Realizing what she had done before, her face immediately turned pale with distress: "Master—!"
Calling out like this, she ignored the dirt on her body, quickly stood up, and struggled to move to the side of the operating table. Her face was full of heartache as she looked at Hawthorne, unable to speak.
"Calm down, Cuivis!" Heidi said quietly. "Master isn't dead, but he's been poisoned by you and is now unconscious!"
"This building can help Master remove the toxin, but the problem now is how to wake Master up!"
"Cuivis, do you have a way?"
Cuivis' movements halted, then she painfully shook her head. Heidi's desperation had led to asking Cuivis—a witch who delighted in torturing humans with poison—how she might concoct an antidote to save someone.
However, if it came to it and they had to save someone poisoned by her, she did have a way.
"This is all because of me," she suddenly said, her tone resolute, a look of self-sacrificial determination in her eyes. "So, I must give up everything of mine to make amends!"
Beside the operating table, Yuta suddenly looked up, astonished: "Cuivis, you want to..."
"Yes!" Cuivis nodded. "I am ready to offer some of my 'Essence' to Master!"
"Master would never agree to that!" Yuta interjected. "I once suggested the same, but Master refused. He couldn't bear to see your foundation harmed!"
"Cuivis, think again. Is there any other way to detoxify him?"
Cuivis shook her head, smiling bitterly: "Perhaps there is, but do we have that much time?"
Yuta was speechless, and as she spoke, Cuivis turned her head to look at Heidi, who also wore a solemn expression, and said, "When I make my sacrifice, continue using Cure Wounds to heal Master. Perhaps that will bring Master a moment of clarity."
Heidi nodded seriously, "I understand!"
At this moment, she also realized that without some sacrifice, they might never be able to recover their faith, their Master!
Cuivis also nodded gently, then without delay, she turned around, gazing lovingly at Hawthorne lying on the operating table. She took a deep breath, her slender hands forming a set of complex symbols. Then, she leaned down, closed her eyes, and kissed him on the lips.
Tiny specks of emerald green light floated from her mouth into Hawthorne's body.
This was the witch's "Essence," a primordial substance drawn from the roots of the material world at the time of their creation. Its total amount was often incredibly minute, and once damaged, it might take many years to recover!
The importance of "Essence" to witches is akin to the marrow for humans; it's the most fundamental energy and the foundation of all their abilities.
And now, Cuivis was offering all of her most precious Essence without hesitation!
The surging energy washed over Hawthorne's body, repairing his poison-damaged internal organs. But more importantly, it merged with his soul, mending the injuries from his interdimensional journey that had yet to fully heal.
Behind her, Heidi quickly pulled out the Grimoire, infused it with Magic Power, casting "Cure Wounds" on Hawthorne as if it were free.
Thus, the healing light combined with the primordial substance to restore his body and soul. Under this lavish treatment, his paralyzed brain slowly began to regain awareness, and his consciousness returned for a brief moment of clarity.
