Killing the Parasite  

The runes formed from my strings and spread into her body. They are going to cover every part of her, leaving not even the slightest gap.

These runes are getting powered by the resources she had brought, and I have also used my own resources. Including a tiny pinch of bubbling tar soil.

Saving is not the only motivation behind spending such rare and precious resources, which value thousands of times more than what she had collected.

I will also get something.

I want crystal, but I am not going to get it. 

It is not only precious resources the parasite had; the whole damn parasite is precious. It is hard to believe it, but it is the truth.

Its blood, bones, and skin are just as precious. Though, unlike crystal, they could not be directly used.

They are extremely poisonous; one needed to refine them before using them.
