Master Blair's Fiery Pursuit

"Vortex!"

Mable plopped into the chair, stunned.

'Blair has been poisoned by Vortex!'

Mable had heard about the poison long ago.

Some organizations would use it on traitors or captives to force confessions.

Those poisoned would be in excruciating pain even if they were pricked by a needle. The worst part was that once they had a wound, they would bleed so much that it would be difficult for the wound to heal.

As far as Mable knew, Vortex had been developed many years ago. Still, there had been no antidote.

'Blair, how did you get poisoned by it?!'

Mable recalled the look on Blair's face last night when he hugged her and said he was in pain. Her heart throbbed.

He was not faking it.

When she touched his wound and treated him with acupuncture, he was in immense pain.

The pain was not inferior to that of the Necro Poison's attack.

Furthermore, painkillers were useless.

Even so, Blair still held her tightly, refusing to let go.

"Mabes, my wound hurts...

"My wound hurts, so be good and let me hug you..."

Remembering what Blair said, Mable could not help but cry.

Blair was really in pain.

She thought he was pretending so that she would stay.

Afraid she would worry, he still forced a smile to comfort her despite being in so much pain.

'You fool!

'Idiot!

'Why did you keep saying that you're fine? If you're fine even after being poisoned by Vortex, what is considered not fine?!'Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Mable wiped her tears away and hurried back to the bedroom.

As soon as she went in, she saw Blair getting out of bed, seemingly ready to go out.

"Blair, lie down!" Mable almost immediately pointed at him and shouted.

Blair froze. He did not know why she was suddenly so angry.

"Mabes-"

"What are you doing? Are you not aware of your condition?!"

Mable ran up and helped him sit on the bed.

Blair stared at her. "I was afraid you'd left."

Mable felt as though her heart was pricked. She could not help but cry again.

Blair panicked when he saw her cry. "Mabes, what's the matter? Who bullied you?" "Blair, you bastard!"

"Mabes..."

"Why didn't you tell me?! Are you trying to die from pain?!"

Mable lifted her hand to punch him

Blair stared at her and said, "Mabes, you-"

"If I hadn't found out on my own, were you planning to hide it from me forever? Were you not going to tell me you've been poisoned byo Vortex?" ,

Blair was speechless.

He had underestimated Mable. He did not expect her to find out after just one night.

Blair sighed and gently wiped her tears away. "Mabes, I'm sorry. I just didn't want you to worry about me."

Mable wanted to cry again. She took

a few steps back and said seriously,

"Blair, from now on, you're not allowed to lie to me. Otherwise, I'll never see you again!"

Blair nodded in agreement. "Okay."

"How do you feel now?"

Blair answered, "The gunshot wound hurts, and the spot you needled earlier hurts too."

In fact, his whole body was in excruciating pain at the moment.
