Chapter 820: It Did Not Feel Right to Simply Watch

"You do know that your mana cores are very important, right?" Raymond reminded Alwin.
Under his elders’ scrutinizing gaze, Alwin replied, "I know. But I just used this spell since it felt like she would die if I didn’t. It didn’t feel right to just watch her die there when I could still do something to save her."
Zion and Raymond glanced at Emily.
[She would die indeed since this poison is especially lethal to magicians which is why it’s usually used against the long-lived races.]
[Since they are our allies, it is only right to try to save her. But not at the cost of his mana cores.]
Using mana cores to save someone had become a target to fool and use the long-lived races for their cores. Many had fallen prey to such tricks only to realize they were not truly loved but simply used.
Thus, using one’s mana core to save people was prohibited and was limited to one’s mate, family, or very important people in the caster’s life.
{Alwin knows about His Majesty using mana cores to save him when he was a child. He must have been reminded about it.} Rendell said to Zion and Raymond.
{Ah, I see. Then, that must be it.}
{This was exactly why Alwin was not supposed to know about that.}
