Chapter 86: Overpowered Ant
As Asher, Wuthenya, and Malrik discussed, a knock echoed through the door.
"You may come in," Malrik answered calmly.
The door creaked open, and a tall man standing at over six feet entered with a composed demeanor. The moment he stepped in, he bowed in greeting. "I greet the First Sun, Second Moon, and Tenth Sun."
Asher, Malrik, and Wuthenya didn’t reply to his greeting. Instead, Wuthenya simply spoke, "You may proceed. And don’t miss anything."
Hearing this, the man stepped forward, heading toward the sofa where Asher sat. Virelass, who had been playfully engaged in a mock battle with Wuthenya’s soul-bound dagger, instantly disengaged and returned to Asher’s side.
She was curious, she wanted to see if this man could truly find what her master’s siblings believed she had missed.
Seeing the man arrive before him, Asher asked, "Do you need me to stand or lie down for this?"
"You don’t need to bother yourself, Tenth Sun. Being seated is perfectly fine," the man answered. His hands rose over both of Asher’s shoulders. A green glow appeared on his palms and then gently enveloped Asher.
Asher remained silent, watching with rapt attention. After all, this was the first time he was witnessing a healing ability outside of Virelass’. The glow surged through every inch of his body, as though scanning him for anomalies or hidden damage.
The man didn’t dare make eye contact. His eyes and hands remained focused on Asher’s shoulders. Three minutes passed in complete silence. Then, suddenly, the green glow vanished. The man removed his hands and turned toward Asher and his siblings.
"First Sun, Second Moon, the Tenth Sun is perfectly healed. He is merely physically exhausted, and his Astra is almost completely depleted," the man stated formally.
"You may leave," Wuthenya replied. At her words, the man bowed once again and left without another word, closing the door behind him.
