บท 1933: A Strong Poison

Alex flew up to the Elders in the sky when his name was called. When he arrived, he spoke up before the Elder could hand him poison.

"I would like the Gold Song Decaying poison, please."

The Elder looked at him for a moment and nodded, bringing out an opaque vial with the poison inside of it. He said nothing and simply handed it over to Alex. Dead or alive, the result mattered not to him.

Alex took the vial and opened it.

"Be quick," the Elder said.

Alex nodded. It wasn't like he was taking any time to begin with, but he didn't question the Elder. He took the vial and downed its content in one go.

As the poison touched his tongue, Alex felt a numbing sensation from it. The sensation continued as it slid down his throat, leaving behind an area of numbness.

However, the numbness didn't last very long before a frigid cold aura overwhelmed the section where the poison passed through.
