Chapter 184: The One Who Started It All [8]
Kyle’s eyelids fluttered open, slow and heavy. His vision was blurry at first. Just shapes, colors, light.
And then slowly. It all began to clear.
A white ceiling above. The soft beep of nearby machines. The clean, sharp scent of antiseptic.
And then. Golden light.
It glowed softly, pulsing like a heartbeat.
Warmth spread through his chest. Threading into his bones, his skin, his very being. He looked down slowly.
Vice Principal Seris Voidcrest was leaning over him. Her silver-white hair falling gently over her shoulders like threads of moonlight.
Her hands hovered above his chest. The golden light flowing from her palms and into him. Her sharp, glowing eyes were focused on her work.
It wasn’t just normal healing.
[Soul Heal].
A ability Seris had gained from the System’s Trials. It didn’t just heal wounds.
It mended the soul itself.
