"Our time's nearly up, Leo," Morgana reminded him. "I can't stretch this moment any longer…"
"One minute," Leo said, raising a finger for emphasis.
He'd just finished consuming a vial of minor healing potion to combat the intoxication that came with absorbing Maleagant's will seed. It was quite effective.
"Man, if I could ship this off to the mortal plane, we'd make a killing with all the alcoholics in the world," Leo chuckled.
Leo rose to his feet and brushed himself off before giving Morgana the thumbs up.
"Anytime you're ready," he said.
Morgana stepped down to the bottom step where Leo was and made sure he was within her shadow before she snapped her fingers and unfroze time.
And like a wave crashing on the shore, sound and color returned. Then came the screams of players who were just beginning to realize that they'd defeated the raid's final boss. The cheering soon followed.
Greetings, fellow reapers!
So, lots of new items to distribute among these players... ;P I'll add that in later. :D
Next chapter, a celebration for our heroes... and Leo deals with the remnants of Deathman's Wonderland and the mechanics of a repeatable raid.
No big news today... I'm planning another double chapter release this weekend. Fingers cross that the stars align.
Don't forget to drop some stones if you enjoy the chapter! :D
