Supreme Magus novel Chapter 617

"What?" Kamila was flabbergasted.

"The mana crystal is small but powerful and I bought the silver ingot at market price. The healing only took me some mana, so dinner will suffice." Lith explained.

"It’s too little money! I can’t accept that." She said.

"Sorry, miss. Healers make their own fares." Vastor and Quylla nodded at those words.

"Besides, you should worry more about Zinya’s accommodation. Your apartment is good for two people but cramped for three. Also, we’re both often away for work and your sister needs guidance." Lith said. _{frёeωebɳovel.com}

Kamila bit her lower lip in stress. Zinya could indeed move into her home, but there was only one bedroom, so either she had to take a break from their relationship or they would be forced to go to a hotel every time.

Changing the apartment wasn’t possible. With a debt on her shoulders, Kamila couldn’t afford a new one with just her savings. The one she lived in was provided by the army for a reduced fee, but they wouldn’t help her pay for a bigger house since she was officially single and without any family member.

To make matters worse, Belius was a horrible city for someone as inexperienced as Zinya was. Public transportation required to be able to read, there was almost no green area, and people were paranoid of newcomers.

To not leave Zinya alone all day, Kamila would need to hire a caregiver to keep her company and teach her everything she might need.

"Don’t worry, Kami. You’ve already done too much. I can’t let you give up on your life for my sake. I’m still Fallmug’s wife, I have a home and duties to attend to. Maybe now that I’m not blind anymore, he might change his ways.

"He hasn’t always been a bad man." Zinya’s smile trembled just as her whole body did. Despite all of her efforts, she was terrified at the idea of seeing her husband or even hearing his voice again.

"No way! It’s too dangerous." Kamila, Lith, and Vastor said at once.

"Lady Sarta, according to my experience, things can only get worse now that you aren’t helpless anymore." Vastor said. "On top of that, in your condition, a single blow to the head could ruin everything we did today. Your body needs time to heal and adapt."

"I have an idea." Lith said. "Zinya could stay in Lutia with my parents until the end of my leave. They have plenty of free space and could use a hand with the kids. I can Warp you there whenever you want and when I have to go back to work, she can move into your apartment."

Kamila couldn’t decide what to do. Lutia was much better than Belius for her sister’s recovery, but she felt like she was once again relying too much on Lith.

"Zinya has only experienced an abusive relationship. Maybe seeing how the marriage of my parents and sister work could help her to make up her mind about the divorce." Lith whispered in her ear.

"Lutia it’s a perfect solution." She sighed. Her pride was a bit wounded, but Zinya’s well-being came first.

***

Fallmug had just recently started to walk again after being unconscious for several days. Lith had been true to his word. Ever since Fallmug had woken up, Lith would kidnap him, blind him, and beat the crap out of him until his body collapsed.

Fallmug Sarta had been living in terror the whole time. There was no place he could hide where the demon wouldn’t be able to find him. He used the unexpected respite Zinya’s intervention had given him to run to the authorities and expose the evil mage.
