Chapter 323: Weird
The Hungering Maw had reared its head once more.
Arwin stared at the ground of the Infernal Armory, a burning pain building in his gut calling for his attention but not yet strong enough to summon it.
He’d let himself forget about the hunger that lurked within him. He’d hoped that the problem had been as good as solved. Lillia’s cooking had been able to keep it satiated for so long that he’d figured that, along with the occasional supplemental snack of a more powerful item, would be more than enough to ignore it.
It hadn’t been.
He could feel the curse in his gut now, throbbing stronger with every second that passed. It would be hours before it got strong enough to pose him a real threat, but the Hungering Maw had made itself known once more and would not be silenced again so easily.
Arwin’s ears rang as he fought to process everything that had just happened.
The news wasn’t all bad. He’d gotten more than just the return of his curse. He’d gotten the final step he needed to take to cure it. The third step of his challenge — not counting the hidden one that he’d gotten by eating Twelve’s sword — had made itself known to him.
