Chapter 690: Side Story 3. Stellar Blossom - 25
Zein, as if leading the most dangerous and difficult raid in his life, faced the audience with sharp eyes full of warning. A screen was hovering by his side, showing a transparent drawing of a human anatomy--courtesy of his talented husband.
"You need to be very, very precise while doing this," Zein started with a stern warning.
The audience was already in full concentration, but they straightened their back even more. Even the Eastern Sun couldn’t help but turn tense in this atmosphere. At any rate, she wasn’t so heartless to be languid in front of desperate, nervous faces.
Radia did not even bow or beg when asking for her cooperation during Operation Fallen Star. Hell--the man didn’t even feign a soft tone, confidently asking to trade her skills with a healing artifact. She could tell that even without her cooperation, Radia would be able to find another way somehow.
How desperate must this man be, if he thought the only way he could save his husband was by kneeling in public? Even to the point of pressing his head on the cold, wet ground?
There was no way she could do things half-heartedly after seeing such a display.
Well...even if she did, Bassena Vaski would probably shred her to bits after the new Saint-class healer dismantled her mental power. What a terrifying combination.
Ah, she should listened well to the explanation.
"What we’re going to do, essentially, was letting the cold energy be eaten by the sentient flame," Zein continued, pointing at the white lantern. "But at the same time, we can’t let the flame become overwhelming and rampaging inside his body instead."
"So, that’s why you need me?" the Eastern Sun asked, glancing at the swirling flame energetically flickering inside the white lantern. "To control the flame?"
"Yes," Zein nodded, glancing briefly at the screen. There, a simulation was played, where a small flame entered the human’s mouth and struck the mana core in the solar plexus. "We will send the sentient flame through Joon’s mouth, and you’ll control it to destroy his core."
