Chương 76: I know it's selfish of me, but can you promise that you'll fight to stay with me?

As Lady Shi made her rounds, checking on the volunteers and the compassionate residents of Everkeep who had joined the healer clan, her heart sank at the grim reality that none of them had survived despite the administration of the antidote.

"My Lady," a healer approached with a heavy heart, "unlike the Gamaaloth, whose robust physique and regenerative capabilities as Halfbeasts lineage offer them greater resilience, these are ordinary humans. By the time they received the antidote, irreversible damage had already been done to their organs."

Lady Shi's eyes glistened with unshed tears as she looked upon the fallen, her voice barely a whisper. "Administer a high dose of opium to ease their suffering. Let them find peace in their final moments."

"Yes, My Lady."

The healer nodded solemnly, understanding the weight of Lady Shi's command, and proceeded to carry out her instructions with utmost care and compassion.
