Chapter 3920: Be Well (Part 1)

"Gods, no. This is way too early." Elina stared at the two toddlers in amazement, and they stared back, waiting for the next letter.

Only Surin showed no interest in the lesson, making Elina sigh in relief.

"Also, just call me Elina." She resumed writing on the sand, and the small children’s learning speed proved to be no worse than their much older classmates.

’This is no big deal.’ Elina thought, hoping to be right. ’It’s not like I’m teaching them magical runes. What’s the worst that could happen?’

By lunchtime, Elina’s classroom had memorized the alphabet, and the Elemental Storage was full except for the Spirit Tanks. Lith had partially filled a second container with mana, but without using Invigoration enough times to affect his prowess.

’I know that Baba Yaga will lead the procedure, but I’m the one bonded with the tower.’ He thought. ’If I become too weak, the burden from using all the pieces of Menadion Set at the same time might cripple me, and in turn it will affect Solus and the tower as well.’

The nutritious food and the vigorous flow of world energy helped Lith recover his strength, while the rest of the Healers used that time to relax and empty their minds from stray thoughts.

"Eat a lot, Zoreth." Baba Yaga said. "You are going to need your strength."

"Sure." The Shadow Dragon nodded, cleaning every one of Elina’s delicious dishes as though it were her last meal.

Once they were done eating, Lith brought everyone to the Infirmary, and Solus connected the various pieces of the Menadion Set to their respective stone pedestals. As the tower’s floor gained access to the artifacts, the group of Healers felt their magical abilities increase and reached a deeper understanding of their role in the procedure.

The Yggdrasill wood stored in the Armory amplified their mental focus, while the connection of the Ears and Skull to the Library allowed the Healers to access the readings of the artifacts with minimal delay.

"I’ll wear the Skull of Bytra." Baba Yaga said. "I mean no disrespect to your work, Ripha, but Bytra’s piece is complete and possesses many enchantments that will help me during the procedure."

"None taken." Menadion nodded, yet Solus seethed when she felt the artifact tainting her tower half with its presence again.

"Are you ready, Zor?" Solus asked.

"Give me one moment alone with Bytra, please." The Shadow Dragon said, and Solus conjured four walls around them. "Byt, I have one thing to give you and one to ask of you."

She took a stack of letters from the breast pocket of her shirt and handed them to the Raiju.

"What should I do with them?" Bytra swallowed, and her face turned ashen.

Each envelope was addressed to a different member of the Organization, and there was one for her as well.

"Deliver them in case something happens to me." Zoreth replied. "They contain my final words and will."

"You’re overreacting." Bytra’s hands trembled as she stored the letters in her dimensional amulet. "This is just the first session of your treatment, and there are still five days left. You still have time."

"Maybe." Zoreth shrugged. "But I have no certainty but the present. Please, don’t read them. Especially yours. It contains everything I would have liked to tell you, but I never found the courage to."

"I won’t." Bytra fought back an insistent tear. "What did you want to ask me?"
