Chapter 1914

After resting for two hours, Vivian walked out of her room and saw Alger sitting in the yard, staring at the negative item she had already dealt with. He absentmindedly stroked his beard, his expression clouded with unspoken questions. Manfred was nowhere in sight. Just as she began walking toward Alger, a nearby door creaked open. Manfred emerged, striding toward her with evident concern. "Are you feeling better?" His eyes searched her face, softening with relief when he saw her complexion had regained some color. "I'm fine now," Vivian replied. Hearing their voices, Alger shifted his attention toward them. "Ah, you're awake? The negative item feels entirely neutral now—no trace of negative energy. Was that your doing?" His eyes gleamed with shock, curiosity, and an almost desperate hunger for understanding. Vivian nodded as she approached him. "Yes, I handled the negative energy on it." Though Alger had suspected as much, hearing it confirmed left him momentarily speechless.
