?[Trait: ??? (Cursed) activated.]

[Party member 'Anuke' has died.]

***

The Blood Sea domain was slowly unravelling while Louie, who was holding Quinn's cold dead body in his arm, was staring at Eshwar with tears in his eyes. Eshwar had suddenly lost consciousness just a minute ago after killing the ranked vampire Kensa Bishop, and he was surrounded by Henry, Arngrim, Core, and Isha, who still had a lost look on her face but held onto Eshwar who was lying on her lap.

Henry and Arngrim stood firm, only tears welling up in their eyes, but Louie and Core had only recently stopped crying from the shock as to why Eshwar had lost consciousness.

Isha was staring at Eshwar with a complicated expression on her face, her heart felt slightly empty because she hadn't expected Quinn to die right in front of her eyes and because her mind couldn't register his death properly, her heart and mind throbbed, but as soon as Eshwar collapsed she snapped back to her senses.

Her mind immediately began to deny that she had ever felt a single ounce of love and care from Quinn, and when Eshwar collapsed, her mind removed every single thought except for him, and her mind accepted the fact that Eshwar was the only one who genuinely loved her, even though it was in their previous life, she didn't even need to think about who is more important, and even if her mind subconsciously compared both Eshwar and Quinn, Quinn's existence itself was too insignificant in front of her Eshwar.

Eshwar had shown her two decades of pure love and care, and compared to the love and care that comes from guilt it was like heaven and literal hell, every thought had left her mind when she saw Eshwar collapse, and before her mind could register anything, she rushed towards Eshwar and supported his head before placing it on her lap.

'Why? Why is his body so exhausted? He is still overexerting himself!!' Isha wanted to throw a fit right then and there, but she somehow managed to hold it in.

"Huuu...." She breathed a sigh of relief and employed her divinity into him, so that he could regain some of his strength, and his body accepted her divinity as his own, which slightly surprised Isha, but her lips curled up into a slight smile because once a divinity is awoken, it will bear their own unique signature in them, which is why it is said to be impossible for two different gods to exchange divinity, she only tried to heal him internally, but discovered something amazing.

"Isha."

'Well, it seems like we won't have any problems if we decide to fight the divine beings now....' Isha thought as she felt a subtle cold sensation on her cheeks.

"Isha!"

"Huh? Yes?" Isha looked at Core, Henry and Arngrim with a surprised expression.

"Are you okay?" Core asked with a worried expression.

"Hm? Yes, of course." Isha answered and slightly tilted her head to the right, perplexed.

"..... Its going to be alright, stay strong." Core said, a tear rolled down on her cheek as she leaned forward and hugged Isha.

'W-why?' Isha was taken aback by Core's unexpected gesture, but she didn't deny it, and something pricked on her cheek; she raised her hand to rub it off, but she felt a cold wet sensation on her cheek, and when she saw what it was, she realized she had cried before, and the tears that had welled up in her eyes had just rolled down....

'There seems to be some kind of misunderstanding here, but....' Isha hugged Core back and calmed her heart and mind.

'I guess, I was a bit sad about his death...' Isha admitted, and another lonely tear rolled down her cheek as if to prove her right.

"Haa.... Thank you, I'm alright now." Isha sighed, thanked Core and patted her back, signalling her to let go.

"Sniffle, I'm not, stay still." Core mumbled with a pout while sniffing.

"Hahaha, yes, yes." Isha chuckled lightly and comforted Core this time around.

Isha believed there was nothing wrong with getting close to Eshwar's friends because he would never allow bad people to get too close to him, let alone become his friends. There would be two types of people he would be close to: 'his' people and those who he thought could be 'useful' to him.

In between Isha and Core was Eshwar, who was breathing slowly while tears continuously streamed off and froze as they approached Isha's thigh, the blood sea which was slowly coming down as the white space cracked was another sight to see for Isha who stared deep into the blood sea domain's horizon where the pure white space and the crimson red blood sea met over Core's shoulder, then suddenly....

SHWOOSH

SWIRL

"!" Isha opened her eyes wide as all the mana in the air trembled and got sucked into Eshwar, who was out cold.

"What!?" Isha exclaimed in surprise, gently pushing back Core and staring at Eshwar's face, whose eyes were wide open and eyeballs had rolled back, revealing a pair of two white sclera with thin red veins. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

'Wh.... What's going on? His whole insides are trembling!' Isha used her divinity that rose from her thighs to completely sense Eshwar's body; unlike his body, which was only trembling slightly from the outside, his insides seemed to be ready to burst at any moment. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

"Wh-why?" Isha looked at Eshwar, worriedly.

"Gra!!" Eshwar suddenly screamed in anguish which left Isha even more worried.

"Healing!?" Isha used her divinity, but because it had no effect, she looked at the others in front of her with a worried and helpless expression while her glare intensified.

"He-here!" Arngrim, Core and Henry instantly opened their subspaces and handed over a volumetric flask with green, slightly thicker, healing potion.

She snatched it from Core's grasp, popped off the volumetric flask's cap, and placed it near his lips with one hand while gently holding his chin with the other and supporting his head to keep it from trembling too much, and poured the potion into his mouth, but the liquid hit her thighs as Eshwar....

Disappeared.
