224 Moving On (2)

As soon as Phloria fell asleep, Lith got out of the bed and used Accumulation. This was the second time that a battle to the death had pushed him to the verge of a breakthrough. If not for his debilitated state, it would have already happened.

The process was even more painful than the last time. Not only his bones, but also his flesh kept being destroyed and regenerated almost at the same time to force the impurities out of his body.

Lith had enveloped himself inside the Hush spell, to prevent anyone from hearing his screams, but not before checking the room for listening or recording magical devices.

He had the feeling that there was very little Jirni Ernas wouldn't do to reach her goals. After finding none, Lith could afford to relax. He tasked Solus with getting rid of the impurities as soon as they appeared, in case he didn't make it back to bed.

Leaving any kind of proof behind wasn't an option.
