Chapter 164

I pressed my palm against June’s forehead, the movement practiced and smooth. Activate Siphon, I commanded in my head.

Flash!

The familiar system prompt popped up right in front of my eyes.

[Siphonable ability detected: Level 3 Plant–type. One–year cooldown. Yes/No?]

Josie hit Yes.

A second later.

A pale green glow seeped out from June’s forehead, slowly drifting into Josie.

A surge of raw, life–giving energy instantly flooded Josie’s limbs.

Nobody dared to leave until she said so.
