บท 1500: A Boon

Hao Xuan swung the heavy blade a couple of times to get used to its weight. It belonged to one of the guards that came with Nae Shin.

He glanced over his shoulder to see Liet already sitting down cross-legged.

"Prepare yourself while I find the breach."

"Un, it won't take long," he replied but still seemed unsure, "Is there anything I can do to help you out there?"

Hao Xuan thought about it for a second but couldn't come up with anything.

"Not really, unless you can turn back time or something and restore my abilities."

He expected a scoff or a chuckle but Liet was eerily quiet.

"What?"

"It's just...I can try to cast a boon and maybe something happens?"

Hao Xuan turned around with a furrowed brow, "Explain, and make it quick."

Liet didn't beat around the bush, "When I receive a new connection and re-create a piece of music from beyond the veil, sometimes it can give those who listen to it a boost of some kind. Be it physical, mental, or otherwise."
