Alaric handed the second jar of cordyceps to Voss and grabbed Blaze by the shoulders.
"Try saying something, anything!" he yelled, shaking Blaze's shoulders.
"Gosh… you're annoying," Blaze replied.
It wasn't his voice. Well, it was his voice, but it sounded nothing like him. Instead, it was hoarse. Almost as if someone had rubbed his vocal cords with sandpaper.
Still, it was better than nothing.
However, not for Blaze. He was unconscious, and when he woke up, he could speak, but how?
He touched his throat as it began to heal on its own. Either the cordycep had unblocked his throat from something, or Marrow's had worked her magic.
Blaze wanted to get to the bottom of it right then and there. After all, he didn't want to use such a hoarse voice, but then his eyes fell on the jars Voss was holding.
