章節 2040: Her Wishes

"She's finally awake..."

"Her body's immunity to drugs is remarkable. I had to use three times the usual doses."

"Understandable... She's been exposed to so many drugs since she was little."

As Shinta slowly regained consciousness, she heard murmurs around her, voices of Magus Annara and Master Bob discussing her condition. Groggily, she opened her eyes to find them by her side. Her head was still spinning, but she attempted to focus.

"What happened... Auntie... Shura... Where is Shura?" she asked, her voice tinged with confusion and concern.

Annara patiently waited for Shinta to sit down and gather her bearings. As Shinta glanced around, she realized she was in a spaceship, its metallic interior gleaming under the dim lights. Annara proceeded to explain the situation briefly: the revelation that the serpent emperor sought to claim her, prompting their clandestine switch with Shura to ensure her safety and allow her to enter the Magus Academy.
