Chapter 269

The next time he woke up, it was in his bed. The bed he had set up at the corner of the library for days when he pull all nighters and didn't bothered to go back to the Castle for sleeping.

He looked around and found Ygritte sleeping on a chair beside him. Why she didn't simply slept with him was beyond him.

He looked down and noticed that she was holding on to his hand. He couldn't resist massaging her soft hand with his thumb.

Ygritte groaned and blinked a few times before her eyes opened and she looked at him.

"Water" he whispered, still feeling a bit weak and his sore through protested with a good deal of pain.

She nodded groggily and took out a pitcher filled with water from her bottomless bag and helped him with it.

After drinking his fill, he closed his eyes and looked at the residual magic left in his body from the ritual.

There was still a good deal of residual magic. Something that won't go any for a whole decade but it was safe for him to drink the potions now.

"Dittany." He whispered. Ygritte nodded and quickly took out the potion that she had already kept on a table nearby.

He removed the cork from the bottle and emptied the whole potion in one go.

The potion taste and smelled like sewage water and his empty stomach protested in response.

He already knew that he would get a diarrhea from drinking the potion empty stomach but he needed to heal.

He gave a motion to Ygritte and she helped him up in the bed.

He was thankful for her presence. Without her, recovering from this ritual would have been a whole lot harder for him.

He closed his eyes and rested.

A few seconds later, he felt the warmth from the magical potion permeate his body and strength slowly started returning to him.

He clenched his fists and moved the fingers in his legs.

Better.

"Food." He said, his throat still hurt from speaking but the pain had gone down in intensity.

Ygritte nodded and gave him a plate filled with warm food that he had kept in stasis for emergency situations.

This situation was not much of an emergency but he wasn't going to say no to good food.

Unfortunately, his throat was still too raw (from all the screaming) to eat solid food.

He removed the stasis and then transfigured the food into water and drank it down in one go.

Inhaling down the liquid was much easier and the liquid would turn back to the solid food a few minutes later once the transfiguration wore off.

The dittany had done it's job and he could already feel the pain in his body turning into simple soreness. But it also left him both physically and magically tired.

He motioned to Ygritte and she helped him back under the blanket where he closed his eyes…

Ygritte, feeling sleepy herself entered under the blanket and wrapped her hand around him.

He smiled at her, though he doubted she would see it in the darkness and fell asleep,
