Chapter 5

"Advantages of Knowing"

*I started sighing out of disappointment

"Honestly, if that's what you see in this, then good for you. I am not obligated to tell you my reason, and i do not bear responsibility for you to see me in a different light, if you view me as a bad person then thats that, end of argument."

He got irritated, "Hah, so you agree that you're a bad person then?"

"No, i just think it's irrelevant to explain something when one won't even care to listen properly."

I can't lie. I am mad, but i can't be fully mad at him because what he said was right. The original Cynthia was a cruel, heartless woman, but it pissed me off knowing im not her anymore. The soul inside this body is different, so stop accusing me of what she did.

The area went silent, and both of them just continued walking as if the conversation hadn't happened.

As they finally arrived, thats where i saw it.

All this back mist, is this what Miasma looks like? reading this in the novel, i just thought it would be something like thin smoke floating in the air since the author didn't described it properly, but i can't believe it's this bad.

Suddenly, I spotted a young boy struggling to breathe because there was black smoke coming out of his mouth.

I immediately placed down the food that I was carrying and scurried to the boy. As i was about to touch him, Jullios quickly pulled my left arm, saying.

"Are you crazy! Just because you're protected by a blessing doesn't mean you won't be affected by the miasma."

I pulled back, replying, "I am completely sane, and i am confident that I won't be harmed by this. He is a boy who needs help, and i am capable of doing such thing, so stop with your nonsense."

Truthfully, the only reason why im acting on this is because the novel already confirmed that the grand ducal bloodline won't be hurt no matter how powerful the miasma is.

I immediately knelt down and placed the young boy's body in my dress. He was already suffocating, so i calmed myself down in order for me to think properly.

Now, how did they heal the infected again... Ah yes! I almost forgot.

Jullios looked at her as if he was confused, just what in the world is this woman thinking?

"Do you have a dagger?"

"What for?", the man replied.

"Just give me the dagger, since lifes at stake here!"

Instantly, with no hesitation, Jullios used his magic to let his dagger appear. As i saw it, i grabbed it as fast as i could and sliced a small cut in my index finger.

Clearly, everyone was shocked, including Jullios as to why I did such a thing. When he was about to come closer to give me some aid, i poured the blood that was leaking in my finger to the young's boy's mouth.

Then, a light so bright glowed around the young boy, removing all the miasma that was inside him.

Everyone was amazed to see what was happening, until Jullios asked, "Just how did you do that? i thought Holy Power was the only one who could purify a miasma?"

Actually, he is not wrong. Holy power was believed to be the only solution to that problem until an unforgettable moment in the novel happened when the miasma became too powerful enough that even holy power alone couldn't destroy it.

In that scenario, the female lead was bedridden because the miasma was consuming her body, and when he thought that he was gonna loose her, the male lead tried an experiment where since he knew that his family was blessed by a god.

Mybe, the blessing was running inside him, so he bit his lips as hard as he could until it started bleeding and kissed the bedridden maiden, and just like what happened here a light emerged and healed the heroine.
