"This is Serina, my daughter. Can you take a look at her?" spoke the Queen, Kirsi, as she looked at me with a melancholic yet hopeful look.

Examining Serina carefully, I saw that she looked really thin and pale, and her eyes looked disoriented to a degree, which made me wonder if…

"Can you see me?" I asked as I gazed at her, but she didn't respond to me and just stood there without much movement.

"Can you hear me?" I asked and still I got no response before her mother, Queen Kirsi, moved forward and reached her.

It somewhat surprised me that even when she touched her, she still didn't respond to it and only after Kirsi applied some ice magic on her body did she respond by turning towards her ever so slightly.

'So her senses have dulled down for some reason, huh? Well, that is really… really… problematic, I suppose,' I thought before sighing and moving towards her.

"If it is not too much, then can I see her vines?" I asked as I observed that girl and Kirsi, though a bit reluctant, still nodded at me and then began undressing her as she turned her back towards me.

Vines, here, are a part of the blue coloured plant-like tattoo that all the Royals of the Luna clan have. It represents their power and lineage and is connected to the Branch of the Moon Tree, Hoddmímis Holt, present on Planet Vermilion.

The more the vines reach up, the more power you can utilise from the moon through the tree branch. A Luna who doesn't have these vines, in general, is not related to the Royal Lineage in any way. The reason that person is still a Luna is probably because either they are blessed by the Luna Goddess or perhaps they are the young ones of the blessed ones who have awakened their hidden powers of Luna within them.

"So… what do you think?" Snapping me out of my thoughts, Kirsi spoke as she looked at me with a hopeful gaze and I turned to her daughter's back, observing the pattern of the vines on her back.

From the tip of the coccyx, a blue-coloured vine was flowing up the spine. It spread up to the abdominal region and stopped around the back near the heart. It had 13 small leaves, 4 big leaves and 2 flowers on each side, with the tip containing a bud.

The next thing I saw was the red-coloured vines or branches that stemmed from the centre of her back and reached almost everywhere, covering almost everything, including the blue vines.

Though, a few seconds later, I saw the red vines turning black and that girl, Serina, started shivering before her mother, Queen Kirsi, covered her once again.

"Sorry… when exposed the vine starts reacting and turning black, which is… quite painful, to say the least." There was visible agony on Kirsi's face before she sighed and put up a brave front and then spoke again.

"Reaper, can you cure her?"

"I will need a few items… rare items," I spoke with a serious face and she nodded at me as she spoke,

"Tell me what you need?"

"These…" I handed her a list of things and when she saw the whole thing, she got confused at the items I asked to fetch her. Even still she nodded and spoke,"I can bring these by the following evening. While they may be rare for you, for us these things are sold in common households… but…"

Her voice lowered as she reached the end and I smiled at her before speaking,"I guess I can count on you then."

After speaking that, I turned to Serena and touched her neck before speaking,"Blood Assimilation: Purify"

I spoke, connecting her blood with mine, immediately and then letting my blood filter her's. With blood assimilation, I can control her blood flow and with my spirit magic and blood magic, I can more or less filter out her blood with mine and let her blood flow into mine.

Using Blood Magic, I then enhanced her blood producing capacity so that healthy detoxified blood flows into her veins in the place of the toxic blood.

Her disease, the curse, which I just took in, travelled inside of me, almost killing me, but before it could do so my body automatically started healing itself, reverting the curse's effects.

I then removed my hand from her neck and saw that the red vein was almost all gone now, however, it still left its marks on her skin.

Which was clearly visible on the side of her neck. Then…

She fell due to exhaustion as I had used most of her mana as well and her mother just dumbfoundedly looked at me, wondering what I had just done.

All this process of removal and purification actually took less than 10 seconds.

"What are you doing to my daughter?!!!" Kirsi, still not being able to process what just happened, suddenly turned to me and I saw Elle coming in between us but before anything could happen…

"Mother?" She woke up and spoke with a dumbfounded and disoriented look. Serina first looked at me, then at her mother, before she turned to Elle.

"Serina?!" Her mother, who was in a state of slight shock, couldn't really comprehend what just happened and was looking with an inconceivable expression for answers.

Her gaze was so intense that I felt like if I didn't tell her… she would kill me ten times over before shuffling me into my grave… Scary.

I could only chuckle a little dryly before pointing my finger at Serina and speaking,

"Ummm… wouldn't it be better… if we took care of her first before getting to the explanation of what I just did?"

At my words, Kirsi, who was a bit reluctant (which she should not be), turned to her daughter and then nodded before threatening me,

"You won't move over 5 metres away from me, you understand?"

I could only give a small smile as I raised my hand in defeat before she nodded and then hurriedly helped her daughter to bed.
