Back in Muya City, Bartlett still felt a faint feverish sensation in his body.
It felt like a cluster of embers, with red threads seeping through the dark ash, hiding deep within his body, slowly providing him with warmth. To be honest, this sensation was not bad during winter, at least it kept the cold at bay.
Bartlett lay on the bed, touched his forehead and found nothing unusual, as if the feverish sensation was just an illusion of his body.
But Bartlett knew it must not be an illusion. Old Phil told him that the feverish sensation was a normal reaction after drinking the 'potion'.
