48. Rebuilding

"Potion!" Mira shouted.

Carlos heard her shout and wanted her to calm down. If only he could speak.

His body still refused to move, but the inventory responded to his thoughts. He forced it open and released a Medium Recovery Potion.

The bottle appeared above his chest and Mira caught it before it fell.

"Carlos, you need to swallow." She said and tried giving some to him. But it was a struggle.

He could not tell her that he was trying too with how he was currently.

She poured only a few drops between his burned lips and rubbed his throat until his body swallowed them. Warmth entered his chest right away.

It was weak compared to the fire that had cooked him from the inside, but it was enough to remind his body that it was still alive.

Carlos's fingers twitched and seeing that, Mira released a broken breath.
