"Julien!" Alice screamed, rushing forward and grabbing his arm.
Chris bolted upright in the bed, his eyes wide with panic.
"Fucker, what are you doing?" Chris shouted, his rough voice echoing in the small room.
"Are you using your soul or something to heal me? Stop it right now!"
Julien stayed hunched over for a second.
He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and slowly stood back up. He gave them a weak smile, revealing blood staining his teeth.
"No," Julien coughed, shaking his head.
"I am not burning my soul. It is just a lack of mana."
He sold his skills just an hour ago. The system literally ripped those abilities out of his body.
Doing that lowered his overall capacity and left him incredibly weak.
And Master Yin's ancient healing technique demanded a massive amount of energy to run. He just pushed his body way past its absolute limit.
'My core is empty,' Julien thought, feeling his legs shaking.
'If I push anymore, I am going to pass out.'
