Yiren and Lisa didn't know what exactly what going on. Even when they asked, Mona was in too much pain to answer. All they could do is wait, hoping for the Detoxifying Pill to work.
Thankfully, within a few seconds, Mona stopped shivering, her body slowly recovering. The black lines coming from her heart went away as well as if sucked inside.
"Mona, are you okay? What was that?" Yiren questioned worriedly, helping Mona stand up on her own.
"I'm sorry…" Mona replied weakly, finally recovering completely. "I didn't expect to be hit by it so soon… Can I have a few of those pills? They seem to be working well to stop it."
"Sure, I have a whole vial of them, but what was that? Are you poisoned?" Lisa asked as she passed Mona the pills.
"I am not. It's more complicated," Mona replied softly, not going into details but Yiren pressured, "Mona, we saw it already. If something is hurting you, we need to know. We will help you fight it back. Trust us."
