บท 195: Three Void Beasts (1)

It didn't take long for the mana to wear down Joshua's body, and Joshua collapsed on the ground like a marionette with its strings cut. After Joshua fell down unconscious, the maelstrom of mana slowly dispersed as Joshua could no longer sustain his magic and mana absorption.

Joan shrieked and rushed to catch Joshua, but Toz was faster. Joan had been biting her nails ever since Joshua's body began trembling and deteriorating, and she wanted to stop him immediately. But she knew that it would only end with the void beasts catching up to them, so she trusted her son.

Toz handed over Joshua to Joan, who carried him in a tight embrace back to the house while crying softly.
