Reason [Bonus chapter]
[Bonus Chapter for 350 golden tickets]
Day after day, Ailsa worked on what remained of Ryu with everything she had.
Even though their intimacy had deepened, she could still only maintain her true form for an hour a day. In the end, this left her with very little time, and often, she wasted much of that period ensuring Ryu would survive long enough for her next hour to come.
These unfortunate circumstances led to Ryu's vitality ticking violently upward and downward in twenty-four hour increments.
Ailsa focused on finding all of the Body Realm Spiritual Herbs she could. If Ryu had no hope of experiencing Rebirth, his only chance was the overwhelming vitality of his four Ancestral Beast bloodlines.
Suddenly, it became a blessing that Ryu had chosen to complete his Ice Phoenix Bloodline first over his Lightning Qilin Bloodline. Had he chosen the latter… He wouldn't have stood a chance.
