Chapter 69 

The scene shifted to the back of a pharmacy , where Elysia was seen brewing medicine in a small pot .

It was clear the had decided to use her self- made concoction to treat Caellan .

 

As speculation buzzed about whether Elysia’s remedies had cured Caellan , he firmly denied it .

 

sof 

“ No , it wasn’t Elysia ” he said with conviction .

“ I remember – the never gave me any medicine to drink .

My recovery was the result of two years o effort from the doctors at Stoneford First Hospital .

If you don’t believe me , go ask them yourself ” 

So that’s it .

She must’ve realized it wasn’t effort and was still misunderstood 

the ris 

right thing to do and decided not to give him the medicine .

Poor Elysia , she went through so 

so much 

[ If she didn’t give it to him , why was she brewing it in the first place ? What a waste of time .

Can we just skip 

part already ? ] 

As if responding to 

g to the comment , the stream jumped ahead , leaving the scene behind and returning to Elysia’s hospital room .

 

Her bedside table was now crowded with strange , vividly colored liquids – greens , reds , blacks – all looking unsentingly unnatural 

[ Those colors are definitely not normal .

Whatever these are , they’re more likely to cause heart problems than cure anything 1 

This sparked a collective realization .

 

[ No wonder she didn’t give it to Carllan .

Even she could see it was too risky .

Poor Elysia , trying her best but still fumbling .

This is both tragic and hilarious .

[ Honestly , I thought her academic brilliance might translate to this , too .

I hoped she’d surprise us and slap everyone in the face with her success .

But no , turns out even she has limits .

As the viewers assumed she had abandoned her attempt , Elysia shocked them by picking up one of the green concoctions and drinking it herself .

 

Within moments , her pale face broke out in red rashes .

Then her pupils turned gray , and she muttered .

“ I think I can’t see anymore … ” 

She waved her hand in front of her face , confirming her loss of sight .

Yet , despite the disorienting side effects , a smile broke across her face .

 

Even as dizziness overtook her , she reached for a small black pill and swallowed it .

 

In 

mere moments , the rashes disappeared , her gray pupils returned to their natural black , and her eyes regained focus .

 

“ Good .

Good .

It works .

Next one .

 

She continued this process , drinking each strange liquid , experiencing a series of side effects – loss of motor control , unfocused eyes – only to cure herself with the same black pill .

 

“ What … what is Elysia doing ? “ Torin’s shocked voice broke the tense silence in the viewing roomTL .

 

Someone quietly answered , “ She’s testing poisons on herself ? 

The words exploded like a thunderclap .

The room fell silent , each person grappling with the weight of the revelation .

 

Even Stellan’s expression darkened , and he muttered , “ Elysia doesn’t know what kind of poison is in Caellan’s body , so she’s trying every possible toxin and counteracting it with her own antidotes ” 

The gravity of her actions sank in , leaving everyone stunned and heavy – hearted .

 

Finally , comments trickled into the chat .

 

[ Testing poisons on herself ? A 16 – year – old ? How is this even real ! ] 

Why doesn’t she value her own life ? What if her antidote fails ? Does she want to die again ! She’s so reckless and heartbreaking .

( What is so special about Caellan that she’s doing all this for him ? All he did was hug her and promise her the moon .

Caellan , what have you done to deserve this ‘ ] 

( Or maybe she knows she can’t die .

Have you forgotten her body’s been altered ! ] 

The Last com 

comment was dismissed as too far – fetched , though it planted a seed of doubt .

 

Torin and Fenwick had already felt a pang of jealousy when they saw E 

saw Elysia holding Caellan .

Now , witnessing the current scene .

Their envy was

evident in their expressions .

 

Elysia had gone to such lengths for Carllan’s Iness – researching treatments , personally gathering herbs , brewing medicine , even testing toxic 

remedies on herself 

‘ Did she ever think about what it would do to us if she died ? Torn thought .

 

Torin’s chest tightened at the thought of the bright , clever , and selfless girl disappearing forever .

 

The idea was suffocating , like a heavy weight pressing against his lungs .

When he caught sight of Carllan’s dumbfounded expression , his simmering anger erupted like a volcano 

“ Callan , don’t you understand yer ” Torin shouted , his voice trembling with fury .

“ If Elysia had been the one to poison you , why would she go to such insane lengths to save you ? ” 

Fenwick , urable to hold back , added , “ She’s risking her life to save you … ” 

After a brief ; 

pause , he mumbled under his breath .

“ Why doesn’t she care for me like that … 

At that moment .

Torin felt an overwhelming urge to throule Caellan .

If Elysia hadn’t stopped him from drinking that cup of milk back then , who knows he might have already lost everything .

 

Finally , Elysia reached the List poisonous ingredient for testing 

But this time , she couldn’t endure it .

Almost immediately after ingesting the substance , her body gave out collapsing to the ground with a loud shud 

Everyone’s hearts stopped for a moment , only to remind themselves that she was still alive in th 

the present .

Theorins began circulating .

 

Was it because she passed out that the doctors managed to treat her , and that’s how Callan got better ? 

Too coincidental .

I’m sticking to the theory that Elysia gave him the medicine , and he just forgot .

Elysisis for ly 15 

d , drenched in sweat , her complexion a sickly blue .

Caellan , experiencing her pain through the immersive VR , let out an 

convulsed .

anguished scream .

 

Hours passed before Elysia’s fingers twitched , and her eyes fluttered open 

The doctor rushed in , horrified by her state .

Her bloodshot eyes , veined with crimson , were unerring enough to make him pause .

 

“ What’s wrong with you , Elysia ? Why are you like this ? ” he asked urgently .

 

Elysia finally opened her eyes again .

Those eyes were entirely veined with crimson , the bloodshot appearance stretching across the whites of her eyes in a chilling pattern .

The sight was so unnerving that even the doctor , who had been reaching out to weady her , instinctively froze for a 

momxnt 

Callan , consumed by guilt and anguish , could no longer hear to watch .

 

He would rather Elysia had never done any of this for him – rather that she had never accompanied him , never led him out of the shadows that lingered in his heart .

 

At least then , the pain he was feeling now wouldn’t be as unbearable as the agony of realizing he might have misjudged her all along 

Surprisingly , when the doctor examined Elysia’s body , all her metrics appeared completely normal .

 

“ Could it be a relapse of her injuries ? Or maybe conjunctivitis causing the pain ? ” the doctor speculated aloud .

 

Elysia , still regaining her strength , heard this and feeling guilty , quickly apologized .

Tim sorry .

I shouldn’t have been moving around so much .

It must have aggravated the wound .

” 

This response seemed to confirm the doctor’s theory , and his tone turned sharp with frustration .

“ Where’s your mother ! How could she leave you alone in the wand like thi 

Elysia frowned in confusion .

 

The doctor , now equally puzzled , continued , “ I called your father earlier , and your mother answered .

She said she’d come to take care of you .

Didn’t she show up ? ” 

“ And these past two days – eating , washing up – you’ve been doing everything by yourself ? ” 

Chapter 69 

Before Elysia could respond , the livestream that burst into action : 

Of course , Elysia’s been doing it all herself ! And not just eating and washing : he’s been helping take care of your

Her voice was calm as she replied , “ I did see my mother .

As the blood merged with the pills , she thought back to the medicines she had just com

This could only mean one thing : her body wasn’t just healing , wounds .

It was also neutralizing toxins .

 

“ Maybe my blood isn’t just an antidote for snake venom .

” Elysia umurnaited softly .

 

She had witnessed her resistance in snake venost firaband in the Lib – while the toxin caused her brief pain , it didn’t affect her beyond that .

But the flower toxin was entirely unexpected .

 

At that moment , her emotions were indescribadile .

 

Elysia thought , “ Is it joy ? Belief that Caellan’s eyes might finally be saved ? Che sorrow ? What have become Ami Lieven aan zynere ?
