Chapter 201: Travel (7)
TL/ED – Miso
“Are you saying this robe is alive?”
Dersia’s Laboratory.
I had questions to ask about Elysia, but as luck would have it, after suddenly saying “I think I finally get it now!” back in the carriage, only to try rejecting my Deep Sea and fall right back asleep. So I had no choice but to show the robe first.
Dersia came close and examined my robe from every angle before saying flatly,
“For now, I can’t sense any trace of life whatsoever. You say it comes alive when it drinks blood?”
“Yes. The problem is, it uses the blood of the Fallen.”
The Empire did keep the Fallen gathered in one place, but drawing their blood was… setting aside whether it was possible or not, an extremely unpleasant affair.
Then again, it wasn’t as if I could storm into the Crimson Circle and kidnap a few of them either, so while I was mulling it over, Dersia said something unexpected.
