Sitting by the base of the spider lily, Alice's body was covered by countless strands of red and black. Flowers and briar thorns.
Even with her resistance, she could feel the energy of the curse coursing through her body as parts of her would mutate before returning back to normal after a short moment.
She could see the red link formed between her and the infected, a cage that spiralled through the capital.
She could see the pulses of energy rippling from the infected to her own body.
It was a strange sensation. A disgusting familiar sensation.
Like the days in the lab as blood was pumped into her body. Yet strangely, it was… warm and soothing after a short while. It was her own blood in the end but Alice disliked this feeling.
Sweat rolled down her face as Alice gritted her teeth.
