The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 975 Stalling for Time

"Damian, what's going on? The treatment you gave didn't just not help my stomach; it made it hurt even more!" Aaron felt panic rising in his chest as he clutched his stomach, writhing in pain. Damian realized things were getting out of hand. He started to panic a little, but quickly put on a calm front, trying to appear confident as ever. "Aaron, don't worry. I've got everything under control." "Under control? It feels like my stomach is completely out of control! It's like those parasites are eating me alive! I can't take this anymore! Are you seriously saying everything is okay?"

"Aaron, you're just feeling worse because my treatment is working," Damian replied, trying to sound reassuring. "The pain is a sign that those parasites are sensing danger. They know they're in trouble, so they're struggling and fighting back. They're going all out to survive, which is why it hurts so much. But don't worry! Once I continue the treatment, those parasites will stop attacking. They'll die off, I promise."

"Hang on, Aaron! The parasites are reacting to the treatment I already gave. I need to give them a little more time to fight before I can proceed with the next round. If I jump into another treatment now, it could be too much for your body to handle. We have to be careful; this kind of situation is dangerous!"

Hearing this, Aaron felt the weight of desperation pressing down on him. "Damian, you need to treat me right now!"
