After the Capital fell; first at the hands of the Dragons, then to the might of an unstoppable beast, the denizens fell into despair.
Humanity was reminded of its place—they were nothing but weak at waiting to be harvested.
The destruction of the largest city in the Alliance caused many to lose hope. The failing economy was the least of their worries, as security and stability beca what everyone desired.
Those who had so ans desired to move South, while the impoverished majority had nowhere else to go… but they were bound to try anyway.
In this cesspool of horrors and uncertainty, a beacon of hope was necessary.
Which was why the Alliance finally made their move and announced the arrival of the Otherworlders.
They revealed how the Otherworlders were the ones who stopped the Dragons, and also that the strongest of them all had defeated the Divine Beast.
That public announcent, with the remnant Otherworlders standing on stage in front of the Capital's denizens, shook the populace.
It was able to rekindle the dying flas of hope that humanity had in their survival.
All hope… was not yet lost.
********
In a blank, vast room, a girl lay on a bed.
She was covered in a thick blanket, and the bed she was in seed to swallow her while with its sheer size.
What seed to be a veil of thin-layered fabric covered her from all sides, all dangling from the ceiling of her bed.
Sparkles of energy danced around her, like miniature stars, and her complete white attire made her almost seem like a lucky bride on her wedding day.
She even had a ring on her finger, displayed thanks to her posture; with both hands on her stomach as she lay peacefully.
This girl was no bride, though, neither was she lucky.
Her long brown hair was scattered all over the bed, and her eyes were tightly shut due to her slumber. With how she barely moved her body, though, one would think she was dead.
But no.
She was very much alive; the fact that she was still breathing, albeit very slowly, proved it.
Alicia White had only fallen into an eternal slumber.
"I'm sorry…"
The voice that echoed within the room ca from the boy who knelt next to her bed.
His right eye rested keenly on her as the other one was covered by a black eyepatch.
Sothing moist ford, glinted within his eyes, but that was all that happened. No tears flowed, even as he tightly held the white blanket atop the bed.
"I know saying this changes nothing. You probably can't even hear . I just…"
He forced his heart not to race, and he used all his strength to ensure none of his physiological reactions passed the breaking point.
Rey feared what would happen if he allowed it.
'I'm so sad, but… I can't allow myself to be.' He so badly wanted to cry, but he already knew the tears wouldn't co.
Rey, at this mont, was in agony.
"If I hadn't been so cowardly, you wouldn't have been forced to do this."
After Ater told him everything, Rey had to analyze everything by himself.
After their discussion, he asked for so alone ti and decided to finally visit Alicia.
Just as Ater said… she was still asleep.
Her body still looked perfect. She had immaculate skin, and incredible beauty. Rey couldn't see her amber-colored eyes, but he already knew they were guaranteed to be amazing too.
His vision trailed all over her body until he spotted the ring on her finger—the very ring he gave her back in the Library.
'I… fuck…'
Rey tightened his face as he squeezed his his hands eveb tighter on the sheets. His heart felt like it would burst, but he kept everything under control.
'What were you thinking about when it all happened, I wonder…' He sniffed, looking at her with a teary eye.
'When I was declared dead, when Snow died, when the Capital went up in flas… what was going on in your mind?'
All the guesses Rey made just caused him to feel all the worse.
'I didn't want things to end this way. You might even hate now. But…' With a single blink of his eye, all the signs of tears vanished, and a determined gaze appeared in its stead.
"I'll fix this. I'll bring you back."
With both [Perfect Divine Magic] and [Divine Magic Supremacy], Rey had access to any and all kinds of Magic.
For Magic that were previously assigned as Skills to him, he could now use them even without their corresponding Skills.
However, for new and unknown Magic, he would have to learn about them—at least, to so degree.
However, there was sothing else.
Based on his pre-existing knowledge of Magic, his experience witnessing its use, and the powers at his disposal, Rey was not only capable of using Magic without chants or delay… he could also sowhat create his own Magic.
'All I have to do is visualize its effect… to do what I want it to do.'
Rey already practiced this in his room, by creating all sorts of models with Wind Magic despite having no knowledge of the Spell prior to activation.
By visualizing the effects he desired, he could mold his Mana into the desired result and practically make a Magic Spell from scratch.
And now…
'I'm going to make a Healing Spell that will cure you of this ailnt.'
Since his Magic was on the Divine Level, there was pretty much nothing that could resist it. Perhaps another Divine Tier could, but [Perfect Divine Magic] would still have so effect for sure.
As a result, Rey was at least confidence of systematic progress even if he couldn't heal her all at once.
'Visualize what you want…' He removed his eyepatch and allowed his full vision in Light Mode to take over.
With this, he could see everything in the room at full capacity.
Mana Flow, Patterns, their Origin, Destination, and the excess particles—even the ones invisible to him before.
Perceiving all of these allowed him to look at Alicia in a completely different light.
Her entire body was shrouded in so kind of darkness: it looked dreadful and horrid.
'Why would Ater give Adonis sothing that could potentially lead to this result?'
Rey was tempted to bla his Familiar, but he desisted from it. Adonis was incredibly resistant to curses, so using the Item would have had no downsides for the Hero.
'Enough about that.' He narrowed his eyes as he sighed shallowly.
