Chapter 280: Warming Up Body
Asteraxa’s soft sigh echoed gently in response, tinged with subtle regret.
[I’m a Blood Dragon, Orion, not a Darkness Dragon. This field of study is outside my expertise. But what I can sense clearly is that the curse originates from this world. To fully comprehend it, you only have three options—find the one who placed the curse on her, or look for a master of curses who hopefully can pinpoint her curse, or the last option is to use a powerful treasure that can analyze the curse. None of the paths are easy.]
Orion exhaled softly, his resolve only solidifying further rather than weakening at the difficulty of the task ahead. ’Then I’ll find whatever or whoever is necessary, regardless of the challenge. She’s suffered enough already.’
Asteraxa’s gentle voice responded softly, a hint of approval evident in her tone.
[That’s precisely the kind of determination I’d expect from you. However, tread carefully, this curse might originate from someone very powerful from the Elven lands.]
Orion nodded softly, fully accepting her words of caution. His gaze softened once more as he watched Seraph’s calm, sleeping form, a fire to break her curse began blazing quietly within his dual-colored eyes.
His voice emerged again in his mind, quiet yet unyielding. ’Whatever the risks, I will find the cure for her.’
Orion stood quietly beside Seraph’s bed for a few lingering moments, the gentle rise and fall of her breathing reassuring him of her safety.
Warm afternoon sunlight spilled softly into the room, creating gentle patterns across her pristine features, now relaxed in sleep. Orion gently brushed her emerald hair one final time, offering her a silent promise, his eyes firm with quiet resolve.
With a reluctant sigh, Orion turned away, stepping softly toward the door. He exited quietly, closing the door carefully behind him, leaving Seraph to rest peacefully.
The hallway outside felt calmer now, the earlier excitement having settled into a quiet stillness. Orion’s mind, however, remained active, determinedly sorting through the newfound challenges regarding Seraph’s curse.
