Empress Carolina did not anticipate the sneak attack coming from Leon, she was only able to realize it when Leon hastily poured the jar of cure potion into the last spirit fragment.
The sparkling liquid splashed all over the spirit fragment and a large portion of it was also able to reach the unguarded Empress Carolina.
"AAAAAAH!!!" Empress Carolina let out a pained howl as she waved her hand to ward off everyone near her proximity.
"Ahhhh… Curse you, the third prince!! Curse all of you!" Empress Carolina looked at her body which seemed to be melted by the cure potion. The potion worked like acid on her body and brought her extreme pain.
Since it contained Eli's holy power, the wounds on her flesh were visibly slow to heal. It was so slow that Kayden estimated that it would take her a full minute to recover her wounds completely.
On the other hand, the significant effect of the cure potion was in the last spirit fragment.
