"What's it to you? Just drive the damn car!" Beichen said coldly as he kicked the car door shut and helped me onto the sidewalk.
I was staggering, the world turning black and white before my eyes.
My heart was in agony, and I could hardly breathe.
The black cat on my shoulder leaned close to my cheek and sniffed, "I'm low on mana right now, I can't heal your internal injuries."
"No need, no need, I'm fine. Don't waste your mana, Beichen. Are you okay?" I doubled over, clutching my chest, while the other hand still held the ruined Thunder Summoning Garment.
Beichen's voice was hoarse but much steadier, "I recited a charm, and it helped me hold on. I'll teach it to you."
"I think I... I probably can't learn it anymore..." I could feel the dizziness encompassing my mind, about to strip away all my consciousness. Then I knew nothing.
Drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip...
My ears were full of the sound of water droplets falling into a still lake.
