Chapter 25: Suspended Animation



Chapter 25: Suspended Animation

Ely wrote a letter before she quietly left the scene for emergency reasons. The wind spirit took her away without anyone noticing it, and she returned to her hotel room.

[Warning! Please find a safe place to rest!]

[Warning! Please find a safe place to rest!]

[Warning! Please find a safe place to rest!]

A red warning window popped out every three seconds due to an emergency.

Ely\'s body temperature rose drastically; her blood was like boiling water. It was a terrible fever. Her vision was blurry, and she staggered down. She rested her head on the bed as she had no more strength to move.

Her consciousness then left her as she could not help it. She didn\'t even have the chance to complain. Her body was forced to \'rest\' after the sudden warning notifications. She tried her best to resist the urge to pass out before she got to safety.

The Demon God of Necromancy was declared dead seconds ago, three hours after the ultimate combined attack of over a hundred holy artifacts.

Because her stats increased so much at one time, the after-effect was expected to cause overheating. A temporary shutdown was required to protect her spirit and soul from harm. It was like a device with recently upgraded components. A compatibility setting had to be done to make things work properly.

"!!!" The wind spirit was in a panic when the holy saintess suddenly fell unconscious beside the bed. It tried to help her, but its elemental wind body heated into hot air instead.

Her body was so hot! In terms of temperature, not something else, of course.

The increasing air pressure and room temperature could be dangerous for the holy saintess. Therefore, the wind spirit blew a gentle cool breeze to cool down the room temperature.

A few moments later, the door was opened. Gabriella and Rafaela went inside because they wanted to report.

Somehow, they felt a strange elemental phenomenon was happening in the bedroom. They rushed there and found their master collapsed in a sitting position beside the bed.

The air pressure was stifling because the hot temperature and cold air were trying to neutralize each other. It was easy to tell the wind spirit was nearby, even though they couldn\'t see it.

However, their master\'s condition and situation were the priority.

Gabriella came closer, but her finger skin burned when she made contact with her master. "Ouch."

At that moment, she realized that the entire room might have been burnt down had it not been for the wind spirit\'s efforts.

"What exactly happened? Master, our master is fine, right? Why is master\'s body so hot? She, she- Gab... Why isn\'t master breathing?" Rafaela checked her master\'s condition as she spoke with a trembling tone. Her eyes soon filled with tears because she didn\'t want to believe what her mind told her.

Gabriella also had her own wild guess. Her master just released an ultimate attack that he strengthened by the Annihilation Star Formation to kill the Demon God.

Heavenly Demon... Her master also received a heavenly curse, just like what happened to the Gods and Immortals, known as heroes, long ago. And currently, her master was between life and death because her master\'s body was fighting that curse.

"We\'re going to do something about this." Gabriella moved her vulnerable master to a supine position.

She took out a life-saving holy treasure to eliminate the heavenly curse. Unfortunately, the magic circle broke the moment it manifested. She just realized that she couldn\'t use her qi or mana here! If so, how could she save her master!?

Rafaela noticed the panic on Gabriella\'s face. She also tried casting high-level healing magic, but her spell collapsed when it emerged.

She checked her master\'s pulse and breathed one more time. At that moment, she remembered that her master had the skill to nullify any qi or mana manifestation.

"Please make it work, please make it work, please make it work..." Rafaela knelt and then performed thirty compressions on her master\'s chest.

That was her first time doing CPR, but her master was still not breathing.

Therefore, she immediately tilted her master\'s head and pinched her master\'s nose shut. She took a normal breath and made a complete seal over her master\'s mouth with her mouth.

She made sure each breath lasted about a second and made his master\'s chest rise, then let the air out before giving the next two-rescue breath.

Rafaela knelt beside her master and performed thirty compressions on her master\'s chest.

That was her first time doing CPR, but her master was still not breathing.

Therefore, she immediately tilted her master\'s head and pinched her master\'s nose shut. She took a normal breath and made a complete seal over her master\'s mouth with her mouth.

She made sure each breath lasted about a second and made his master\'s chest rise, then let the air out before giving the next rescue breath.

She repeated the thirty chest compressions and two rescue breaths until her hands and lips burned from her master\'s boiling hot temperature.

"Why isn\'t it working?" Rafaela muttered incoherently because of her burned lips. Her tears clouded her vision, but she couldn\'t give up because she didn\'t want to lose her master.

What did her master teach her and the disciples with healing aptitude came to mind. Healing skill was a sacrificial technique to save someone\'s life with one\'s vitality. Unless the caster had a method to recover the lost vitality, it was bound as a suicide skill that eroded lifespan.

Rafaela then sealed her master\'s mouth once again, sending her vitality directly into her master\'s body because she currently couldn\'t use her mana or qi.

"Rafaela, what are you doing? You have exhausted more than half of your vitality. We will find a way to heal our master. Please don\'t be reckless!" Gabriella tried to stop Rafaela.

However, Rafaela brushed her hand away and responded with a desperate gaze.

It was like Rafaela wanted to tell her senior that dying was okay if her master survived.

\'Stop.\'

Ely\'s whisper sounded straight into Rafaela\'s mind.

Rafaela heard it clearly, but she didn\'t stop. She still supplied a large amount of vitality to her master\'s body.

\'Silly child, I said stop! I fall into suspended animation. My spirit is forced to wake up because of your vitality, but you will die at this rate, and I will cry. I\'ll be fine in an hour or two. Do not worry.\'

\'Master, is it really you? Are you okay?\'

\'Yes, please heal your burns first. I will help you when I wake up.\'

Hearing that, Rafaela stopped her desperate effort. Her complexion was already so pale, resembling someone with a terminal illness with not much longer to live.

"You are so reckless! How can I explain to master if you die?" Gabriella immediately dragged Rafela away from their master.

Once outside the nullification zone, she used her life-saving treasure to treat Rafaela\'s burns.

"I\'m sorry, I don\'t know what to do if our master leaves us. However, master told me about her situation just now." Rafaela apologized. She fell into Gabriella\'s embrace as she felt so weak right now.

"I don\'t want to hear your apology, but wait, master spoke to you? Was that via telepathy? What did she say?" Gabriella was surprised, realizing what Rafaela was talking about.

Rafaela then told her sister about her master\'s condition, and they both waited for an hour there.

"..." Ely opened her purplish-blue eyes in a daze. She wondered why she was staring at the unfamiliar ceiling and lying on the floor?

The surrounding phenomenon had vanished into thin air, and the wind spirit finally felt relieved because the holy saintess was fine. Or else, not even Heaven would grant forgiveness.

"Master!" Gabriella and Rafaela hugged their master. They were terrified that their master would leave them, but the relief of finding their master was alive made them emotional.

"Silly child..." Ely touched Rafaela\'s forehead. She returned all the vitality this reckless disciple sent to her body.

Rafaela\'s complexion gradually returned to normal.

Ely breathed a sigh of relief after ensuring that Rafaela\'s condition was satisfactory.

She always reminded her disciples with healing skills to take care of themselves and restrain them from using that skill unless it was essential. There were healing treasures, life-saving artifacts, and many more to replace the use of that skill.

And yet! Rafaela chose to make unnecessary sacrifices to help her. She received the sentiment, but if she was too late to stop Rafaela, she would cry in sorrow if she woke up and found her 2nd disciple\'s cold body.

*Snap*

Ely flicked Rafaela\'s forehead.

"Owie." Rafaela held her forehead.

"Don\'t be reckless next time. Your master is not easy to die." Ely was angy, but her angelic face didn\'t match it. Her relieved smile also betrayed her tone.

"En, disciple understand." Raphael nodded in understanding. She could only do such a thing only for her master.

"Is it hurt?" Ely checked Rafaela\'s condition to ensure everything was healing correctly. She reassured her disciples with some details. Then, Gabriella and Rafaela reported the incident about the Lumina Family.

"How do you feel, Raf-chan?" Ely sat on the bed next to Rafaela.

"Strangely, nothing, master... It\'s as if they are no longer a part of my life." Rafaela pressed her hand to her chest. She felt as if she was truly liberated and relieved from the burden of the past.
