Chapter 304: Evolution II
Dave rolled his eyes at Natasha, who was glaring at him with concern.
"I’m helping her," he said calmly. "That black liquid is impurity—being expelled from her body. After this, her body will be much purer... and stronger."
Natasha’s expression softened as she glanced at Meilin, who was still slumped forward on the bed, black liquid continuing to drip from her nose. She had already filled half a bucket.
Dave crossed his arms thoughtfully.
"Why does she release it from her nose, though?" he muttered. "Most fantasy stories have impurities coming out of pores..."
He looked at her with mild disbelief. "Just how many impurities did she have?"
Another few minutes passed as Meilin expelled the last of the foul-smelling dark sludge. Her breath steadied, and a pure white mist slowly rose from her body like the breath of life itself.
Finally, her eyes fluttered open.
"Brother... I think... I saw the stars in my spirit," she whispered.
As she lifted her hand, the White Shore Lily appeared above her palm—but it had changed.
The lily now shimmered with golden veins running through its petals. The base glowed with a deep oceanic light, and its texture sparkled like crystal emerald. A soft mist of silver and pale blue light surrounded it, and every movement of the petals left afterimages of light.
Dave stared in satisfaction and nodded. "It seems your Martial Spirit has evolved."
