Matthew woke up with Faralynn scrolling on her phone by his side. He was out for a bit more than one hour. His mouth was dry and his head was killing him. But he was no longer in pain or with a fever.
"Faralynn?" Matthew asked as soon as he opened his eye. "What happened?"
Faralynn hid a smile behind her hand pretending to think. She didn't want to show him she was happy for him waking up.
"You fainted after Professor Claude tried to purify your demonic mana." She said after returning to her stoic face.
"It hurt a lot." Matthew said pressing his heart. "And now? I'm clean?" He asked hopeful.
Faralynn didn't hide the sadness in her face and just looked at him not knowing how to answer that.
"What's wrong with me?" He asked looking her in her eyes.
"We don't know. Neither father nor Professor Claude ever seen this before."
Matthew felt that like a slap on his face. He didn't even know how to process that.
