The crystal felt mixed emotions upon hearing Leon's words.
'You're too naive… the day you regain the memories of your past life will be the funniest and happiest day of my existence. I wonder how you'll react… you might puke out blood remembering this moment. Because I know what it cost you… I shared your pain back then.'
It also knew the life-saving elixir wouldn't run out anytime soon, since Ileus — the former Leon — had stored many of them.
This was the crystal's personal thought, and Leon was not meant to hear it.
Meanwhile, still unaware of the crystal's inner thoughts, Leon stored the elixir from the store and opened the bottle he had gotten before in order to drink its contents.
He slowly and carefully drank a single drop of the colorless liquid, trying to take as little as possible from the bottle.
The moment a drop touched his tongue, a burning pain accompanied by a bitter taste assaulted him, starting from his tongue and spreading through his body.
