An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

Aurora’s eyes widened in shock. She touched the blood on her face and looked over at Alicia on the bed, who was coughing up blood.

Kenan and Brian were equally shocked by the sudden turn of events. No one anticipated that after drinking the Enigma Mist, Alicia’s condition would deteriorate.

“Dr. Quake! What… What’s going on?” Brian asked anxiously.

“Dr. Quake! You assured us that the Enigma Mist would bring my sister back from the brink. Why is she coughing up blood now?” Aurora was frantic.

“Don’t worry. It’s just a minor setback. Let me check her again,” Kenan reassured them.

He quickly approached Alicia to take her pulse and frowned. “This is unexpected. Her pulse is weak, and her blood circulation is poor.

“These symptoms suggest poisoning. The Enigma Mist should have detoxified her. But why isn’t it working?

The Enigma Mist was supposed to cure any poison and extend life. Just a sip should have stabilized Alicia’s condition. But this unforeseen reaction left him perplexed.

“Dr. Quake, what’s going on with my sister? Do you truly have the ability to cure her?” Aurora’s expression was a mix of anxiety and fear.

A moment ago, Alicia was fine. But after Kenan removed the silver needles and fed her the medicine, her condition worsened. It raised Aurora’s doubts about Kenan’s medical skills.

“Of course. I can.” Kenan took a deep breath and said calmly, “Although the Enigma Mist didn’t have the desired effect, I have other methods to remove the toxins from her body.”

“Whatever it takes, just cure my sister first!” Aurora urged.
