Its been eight days since Seiji began his intensive efforts to remove the curse from the nobleman's wife. Despite his tireless use of healing, purifying, curing, and cleansing skills, the curse remained stubbornly lodged within her, and her body was still very weak. Seiji's determination had not waned, but his frustration grew with each passing day as the dark mist inside her persisted.
He spent long hours in the small house, administering his skills and observing every change in her condition. Each day brought incremental improvements in her physical health, but the curse proved resistant. The dark mist, which Seiji had identified as the source of her affliction, lingered within her, defying his attempts to eradicate it.
