"Oh!" Alex stared blankly. "You mean they won't become sick or lose their minds anymore?"
"Yup." Liam assured her. "So basically everyone who didn't stay idle and sit at home cowering in fear would be safe."
"Levelling up is also not the only way. They just need to do something. Either kill the beasts or at least obtain beast meat in some other way like trading for other items."
"If enough beast meat is consumed, the chances of being affected by mana are greatly reduced." Liam explained.
"This is just natural selection. We cannot do anything about it. Those who can adapt will survive, and those who cannot will die. This is just how it is."
Alex nodded in understanding. Everyone else standing around also overheard the conversation. They couldn't help but be grateful to Liam.
