[Chapter 295 Comments.]

Inside the castle, the Darkness Witch, Theo, and his students were standing inside the room, staring at the lying patient.

Another witch was checking her condition before standing up.

"How is it?" The Darkness Witch asked.

"Her condition is stable right now, Your Majesty. But as we discussed before, her left leg and left arm will be extremely weak. Because she is a formidable witch herself, she might be able to recover to a certain extent, but I believe she needs a cane for the rest of her life."

The Darkness Witch looked worried and relieved at the same time. Even the doctor seemed to be shocked that someone could recover from that possession.

"It won't suddenly endanger her life anymore, right?" The Darkness Witch asked for confirmation.

"Yes. Her power is stable. She will need some time to recover to her peak, but there's nothing to worry about." She nodded.

"I see." The Darkness Witch then turned to Theo.

Theo calmly nodded. He sat down next to the bed and placed his fingers on the Crimson Witch's forehead.

The Darkness Witch and the doctor were looking at him anxiously. The twins seemed to have little interest, but Aurora was praying that the treatment would work.

"Valentine."

"Her mind is steady. I'll stimulate his brain, while Master can use the technique to turn me into a familiar on her. But instead of pulling her soul out, you just have to drag her soul all over her body, especially the left part of her body. Start with gentle stimulation and gradually increase the pace."

"Should I use my illusion?"

"You can try. I'll observe her mind. If there's discomfort, you might want to stop it right away."

"Alright. Let's begin." Theo closed his eyes and started circulating his energy.

He followed Valentine's explanation and started infusing his energy into her body. Once they were in harmony, Theo activated his ability, which pulled her soul from her body.

After that, he began to circulate it from the right hand to the left hand, from the right foot to the left foot. He needed her to remember that her body was whole again because the corrupted energy that took half of her body was already gone.

At the same time, he started influencing her with his illusion.

"…" The Crimson Witch felt like she was sinking in the bottomless ocean. It was what she had been feeling for the last couple of months.

She couldn't help but recall what happened even before that.

"Ha… Ha…" The Crimson Witch was panting while clutching her left chest. Her other hand was still writing something in her notebook. "I can't lose yet. I need to finish this research as quickly as possible so that no more people have to suffer because of this mysterious corruption." Explore hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire

'That's right. I should have been researching this corruption… It appeared I wasn't able to finish my research. If only I had a bit more time, I might be able to figure out something else.'

The Crimson Witch felt immense regret in her chest. Her mind didn't realize that it was becoming more active. In the past, she didn't have a single active thought. What she had in mind was to preserve her soul for as long as possible.

But this time, she ended up questioning a lot of things.

Eventually, her back touched the bottom.

"Huh?" The Crimson Witch was confused. 'What is this? The chilling atmosphere has become warmer. There seems to be a light trying to enter my eyes in this bottomless ocean…'

"When are you going to wake up?" A female's voice echoed in her ears.

'Your Majesty? Am I hallucinating?'

"You're not. I've done all I can to bring you back. Are you going to waste my efforts by not waking up?"

'I want to wake up. I want to reply to Your Majesty. But how can I do this? What should I do?' The Crimson Witch panicked.

"It's simple. Open your eyes."

'Open my eyes…' The Crimson Witch felt like, in her dream, she was about to open her eyes. But what truly happened was that her real body actually opened its eyes.

Her eyes twitched as if they were about to close again. Noticing the discomfort, Theo waved his hand.

"Your… Ma…jes…ty…" The Crimson Witch opened her mouth. Her voice was so small, but all the people in the room could hear it.

"!!!" The Darkness Witch hurriedly came over. "I'm here. Are you awake? You…"

The Darkness Witch couldn't think of any words to say. She was just glad that the Crimson Witch finally woke up.

Theo stood up and said, "Now that she has woken up, my job is done."

"T-Thank you!" The Darkness Witch lowered her head.

"Your Majesty?" The doctor was stunned since the queen never lowered her head to anyone. Even the Crimson Witch seemed to want to say something, but she was too weak to do so.

Theo simply waved his hand, treating it as not a big deal. "I merely fulfill my part of the agreement. If you want to thank someone, you should thank her." Theo placed his hand on top of Aurora's head.

"Eh?" Aurora looked shocked while raising her vision. "Teacher?"

"I didn't really plan to save her if not for this dear student of mine." Theo smiled.

Aurora's eyes glistened as if she were about to cry. Theo directly confirmed that he did it for her sake. He didn't want others to experience the same thing that happened to her uncle.

Her uncle was unlucky or too late at that time. As if to make up for it, Theo helped her.

Theo continued, "In any case, I'll not disturb you any longer,' while turning around.

He had one more thing to do. Since he couldn't escape from the plot, it was better for him to learn about the identity of the corruption. The Crimson Witch was too weak to share her experience, so that left him with the book. Yes, he was planning to read the notebook.
