Chapter 2554: Awakening and Fainting Again

~7 min read 1,385 words

Tower of Time, Stasis Chamber.

As Xia Duo's spell gradually took shape, stagnant rays of light appeared bit by bit around the body of Aipusi, who was within the Time Deceleration zone; these rays had no direct effect on the healing itself.

Instead, they were used to measure the state of the Magic Net and assist in Spellcasting. Manual Spellcasting inevitably required considering the possibility of a Spellcaster's error, but even with Time Deceleration, it was inappropriate to temporarily craft a Magic Artifact for healing.

Although Aipusi was under Time Deceleration, there was ultimately still a Flow of time. Crafting a Magic Artifact might not take long, but its very existence would be a negation of an immediate surgery.

While manual Spellcasting carried the possibility of error, it was also the most adaptable method of Spellcasting. After all, Time Deceleration was not Eternal Stasis, and the Soul fluctuations of Aipusi could not be suppressed.

The decider of whether this surgery would succeed or not seemed to be only Xia Duo, but in reality, it also had a great deal to do with Aipusi; if he suddenly produced unexpected Soul fluctuations at the moment Xia Duo's spell descended.

Then this surgery might fail.

Under normal circumstances, if there were no Time Deceleration, Xia Duo would absolutely not perform this kind of surgery. Time Deceleration was like an anesthetic, but anesthetics were not one hundred percent effective.

"It all depends on your luck. I hope you don't let Niya down."

Soon, the spell was completed, and everything would be set in stone. Even though Xia Duo and Aipusi had a distant relationship, because of Niya, he couldn't help but feel his heart tighten at this moment.

To me, being cursed was something that had just happened a short while ago; the subsequent hurried arrangements and entering the Stasis Chamber all took place within a few days.

The missing parts before can mostly be judged as locations, but what exactly was discovered? And behind that first Cloud Pattern Announcement, it was very difficult to interpret—

My daughter told me that more than seven years had passed, and then the curse on my body was suddenly lifted, which made Saville unable to help but doubt reality.

This time it was not a meticulous examination from beginning to end, from body to Soul. Xia Duo quickly confirmed the result: the surgery was a perfect success. His spell had incomparably precisely separated Saville's infected Soul from his main Soul.

"Is the curse lifted?" Saville was still somewhat incredulous, but he had to believe his daughter's words; all of this was simply too dreamlike.

□□□□, Yierlan, □□□□□, □□□□, □□□ discovered □□□.

"What's wrong? Why are you all looking at me like that?"

……

Hearing Xia Duo's voice, Niya gradually came back to her senses, and still with a trace of bewilderment, she murmured: "Mm, right, let's go back and rest first."

The next moment, the spell was triggered, and Aipusi did not undergo any changes.

Then, the most dreamlike part came: in my Perception, my daughter was saying goodbye to me as I was about to enter the state of Eternal Stasis, when suddenly everything changed.

"Curse successfully lifted!"

This was the earliest event information interpreted from the Future Announcement Cloud Pattern, and also the only complete and unambiguous one, but unfortunately, this information had no meaning at all to Xia Duo.

"Father, do you feel better?" Niya asked in a trembling voice.

Saville subconsciously replied, and the next moment he reacted, his expression changing drastically, "You, are you saying the curse on my body has been lifted? Just now?"

He fainted!

Over this period of time, although he had been unable to interpret all the possible information, he could more or less sort out a series of events that roughly corresponded correctly.

Saying this, Xia Duo once again performed a spell to check. Due to the Time Deceleration, even if the surgery had failed, from the surface, Saville would not have any obvious changes.

"I need to check it first before I can be sure."

……

But he trusted Niya one hundred percent. This sense of confusion between reality and his own cognition left Saville somewhat at a loss for a time, and with his aged body not yet recovered, under the drastic change in his mental state—

"Knowing he is fine is enough. Besides, the person he most wants to see when he wakes up should be his daughter, not me, a grandfather who never appeared during his growth process. I don't want to make him faint again."

Without waiting for Xia Duo to speak, Niya asked impatiently, "How is it? Is the curse lifted?"

In the past, he often heard Niya tell stories about Aipusi, and Aipusi truly admired Aipusi! If Aipusi knew about this, he would probably be so happy his mouth would stretch to his ears.

"Mm, just now Xia Duo already lifted the curse on your body, Father, you don't have to stay in the Stasis Chamber anymore!" Niya excitedly stepped forward to support Saville's arm.

"Father?!"

Afterward, it was only necessary to peel off that part of the Soul Fragment carrying the curse. Xia Duo had previously peeled off his own Soul Fragment; this was not a high-difficulty operation.

Because in the Main Plane, it would be October in less than a month. If there were no accidents, the Cultural and Arts Festival would also begin at that time. With Xia Duo's current grasp of reality, at least the October Art Festival would not be unable to be held due to any accidents.

Afterward, he persuaded Niya, "Your father is fine, he was just a bit emotionally agitated for a moment and fainted. Let's take him back to rest first!"

However, Xia Duo would not tell him that; he was still prepared to properly enjoy the scene of the grandfather and granddaughter reuniting!

How it specifically turned out would still depend on the examination results.

At this moment, Saville's psychological state was still stuck at the moment Aipusi urged Xia Duo to act. He heard Xia Duo say "there is still time," but he hadn't seen Xia Duo act, while Niya was looking at him with incomparable excitement, which made him feel somewhat puzzled.

After doing all this, he began to adjust the Flow of time within the Jieti bit by bit, making it transition smoothly to normal space-time.

Afterward, Xia Duo sent Saville back to his original bedroom in the Tower of Time. Over these years, Xia Duo and Niya had never moved anything there. Earlier, Niya would often go over to clean, but later she went less often, and it was inevitable that dust would accumulate.

He told Niya and Aipusi, "There is still the final bit of finishing work; very soon Saville will be able to meet with you."

Next, Xia Duo peeled off the infected Soul Fragment that Saville had already separated, wiped away the excess Negative Energy around his Soul, and finally thoughtfully combed through the Connection Nodes between Saville's body and Soul, repairing some connections that had been severed due to the surgery.

Seeing this scene, Niya's mind went almost blank. Fortunately, Xia Duo quickly stepped forward to support Saville, whose body was falling downward, otherwise his father-in-law would have ended up lying on the ground.

"How is it? How are the examination results?" Aipusi also couldn't help but lean over to ask.

Outside Saville's bedroom.

Fortunately, this was a world of Magic; one Cleaning Spell later, it was at least presentable. As for the rest, he would wait for Saville to wake up before dealing with it.

Aipusi pretended to be indifferent, but Xia Duo knew this guy was saying the opposite of what he felt, so he couldn't help but tease him, "If you are so insincere, Saville will be sad if he finds out."

Nese Li 839 Nian, October, the Great Xia Territory Cultural and Arts Festival began.

"Me? Isn't it still the same?"

Xia Duo asked curiously to Aipusi, who was leaving with him, "Why aren't you waiting inside for Saville to wake up?"

Because of the emergency of treating Saville, Xia Duo had interrupted the work of interpreting the Future Announcement Cloud Pattern. Now that Saville had been rescued, he continued that work again.
