As a non-human being that had awakened the Vitality Primordial, suddenly catching a cold was very unusual.
But the probability was not zero.
As beings who had only taken the first step in transcending humanity, non-humans still retained some human characteristics. Therefore, although the chance of getting sick was small, it still existed!
The mechanical tutor thought this was just a minor accident, probably due to a problem with the alchemy potion he had taken in the morning, resulting in a weakened resistance.
He had already identified his enemy: a Shadowless One of the 'Shadow' pathway, someone with the same primordial nature as him, but not an unbeatable opponent.
Thus, after a brief moment of surprise, his hand moved to his heart. He had transformed his heart into a magical item with both healing and defensive capabilities; all he had to do was activate it...
Thunk!
