Ascension

One of the three healing potions popped up and fell to the ground. 

Varian's eyes were still closed, but he heard the sound of its landing and felt it press against his arm.

There was a problem, however. 

It wasn't open.

'Just move once…' He tried to move his arm and break open the healing potion. 

His body refused. It was like someone else's body. He had no control over it. Meanwhile, his lower abdomen was also going cold. 

'I need to hurry up!' He urged himself. 

'Wait!'

His mana continued to rise during his fall. He used every bit of new mana right after gaining it to block against the lightning bolts.

However, the mana increased after the final lightning hit wasn't used and he crashed to the ground the next moment.
