Want to die... be my guest

After one and half an hour later… Sophie's room…

Phew!

"That was exhausting!" 

Max exhaled deeply as he removed his hands from her abdomen, leaving two red hand prints, and sprawled on the bed, heaving deep breaths.

Sophie was unable to check her condition since she didn't have her mana vision. So, she nervously asked, "How was it? Did you manage to heal it, my foundation?"

"Yeah. It's healed. Now you just need to repair your mana core and you'll be perfectly fine." Max said and before she could ask, he added, 

"You can repair your mana core on your own with the energy I have left in your dantian."

"Oh, okay." She unsurely said, finding it all surreal.

After a while, she sat up, gazed down at him with a suspicious look and asked, "Um, didn't you say you would need to boost your bloodline energy multiple times if you were to do that with a Four Star Mage?"

"Yeah." Max distractingly nodded.
