A Rather Skilled Artist

"Mr. Linsey?"

Kona, who was on the ground, also saw Linsey on the balcony.

Despite the excruciating pain throughout her body, she somehow found strength and struggled to say:

"I know I'm beyond saving. In my bedside table are some jewelry pieces, all genuine items that I bought without Will's knowledge. After I die, please give these things to him."

Kona finished speaking.

These words seemed to have exhausted all her strength.

Her body relaxed completely, and she lay face down on the floor, motionless.

"..."

"Madam? Lady? Miss Kona?"

Linsey immediately rushed forward and helped the other person up.

Kona is no longer able to respond to the outside world.

At this point, the Decryption Game will also reveal the other person's physical condition.

[Human female – An unstable state of awakening, stimulated by powerful Essence, is damaging her body and leading to complications.]

"Linsey?"

At that moment, Ala Song struggled to climb in from the balcony.

He was initially puzzled as to why Linsey had trespassed on private property.

The painter only realized what was happening when he saw Linsey pick up Kona.

"How did you find out? Never mind, what's wrong with this woman? The way she's acting... her Essence state is very disordered, it's not the state a normal awakened person should be in, what exactly is this thing?"

"She is the wife of a friend of mine. She had health problems when she had an awakening."

Linsey gave a brief explanation.

At the same time, his eyes searched through his luggage.

Unfortunately.

The medicines Linsey prepared herself were all for healing injuries or boosting morale—the kind of things that are very useful during adventures.

He had never made medicines for such difficult and complicated diseases.

At this moment, it seemed as if they were encouraging something.

An inappropriate line of text also appeared on the Task Bar.

[Inheritance Commission]

The seriously ill wife felt there was no cure. Unable to persuade her husband to give up treatment, she secretly saved some jewelry, hoping that after her death, it would improve the life of her beloved.

Now that she is critically ill, she needs someone to help her inform her husband about this inheritance.

[Task Rewards: A small amount of gold coins, attribute/ Skill Experience Points.]

"..."

Linsey almost laughed in exasperation at the sudden assignment.

But then he turned his gaze and suddenly found something in his bag, and immediately felt that everything was not so regrettable.

"I never expected this..."

Linsey pulled out the [Steel Vine Vitality Potion] and the [Wild Ginger Supplement], and directly pinched Kona's chin to force-feed them.

One of these two medications enhances the body's recovery ability, while the other enhances its disease resistance.

It is impossible to cure Kona.

However, after drinking it, Kona's complexion visibly improved.

He finally withstood the immense pressure from the powerful Essence within the city, and his breathing rhythm, which had been rising and falling, calmed down.

"Are you alright?"

Linsey checked it again.

After confirming that the other party had no issues with the description of the skills, he then carried Kona to the bed in the bedroom to rest.

Ala Song asked curiously:

"Linsey, what did you give this lady to drink?"

Linsey explained, "A potion that enhances the body's recovery ability."

"This works really well," Ala Song asked. "Where did you buy it?"

"You can't buy this here." Linsey shook her head slightly. "I injured my left hand before. A friend in the Courtyard in the Forest World gave me this potion. I never thought it would actually work."

[Steel Vine Vitality Potion] and [Wild Ginger Supplement].

It was a long time ago, when Linsey first traded with Ailini in the Courtyard in the Forest World.

For Linsey, who possesses the Life Source Material.

These two medications are not very effective.

But when used on someone like Kona, it becomes a life-saving medicine.

A potion from a remote world travels across countless worlds to save a lady in World Main City.

The twists of fate involved are truly amusing.

Having casually saved a life, Linsey decided to continue her journey with Ala Song.

Just then, Kona behind her got out of bed.

The failure to awaken brought her physical burden, but also gave her an extra talent compared to ordinary people.

Kona woke up just in time and saw Linsey about to leave.

"Mr. Linsey! You saved me, didn't you?"

Linsey waved her hand:

"I just happened to be passing by, don't worry about it."

"You get some rest, I have something urgent to attend to..."

Linsey didn't really care about the help she gave, but Kona was grateful and wanted to do something for Linsey.

She strained to lean against the door and called to Linsey, "Will, Will has the sketches ready, they're on the table in the studio!"

"..."

Linsey paused in her steps.

Thank you.

He glanced at the desk as he walked by.

Sure enough, there were more than 10 pages of messy drafts on it.

In just a few days, Will completed the first draft of the design with enthusiasm and hard work in order to save his wife.

In the design industry, this is just the beginning of the work.

But for Linsey's shop...

This level of design is sufficient to serve as blueprints for future upgrades.

Linsey accepted the manuscript papers directly.

He placed a few gold coins on the table as the final payment.

After thinking about it, I put the old, useless chair here again.

"Ms. Kona, this chair is something Will told me before. I'll give it to him as part of the final payment."

"Huh?" Kona looked puzzled; she had never heard her husband mention this before.

But this time Linsey didn't wait.

While the designer's wife was still puzzled.

He and Ala Song had already left through the main entrance and continued towards the Blue District, disappearing into the streets of the Orange District in the blink of an eye.

On the way, Ala Song, unaware of the truth, was still teasing Linsey: "Linsey, this is the first time I've ever seen someone include the chair in the final payment."

Linsey smiled mysteriously, "That chair was made by a rather talented artist; it's quite a nice antique."

Ala Song asked curiously:

"A great artist? Which important figure in the city is he?"

Linsey responded tactfully:

"She is no longer in this world."

"..."

The two talked as they walked, and soon arrived at the Stone Fort corresponding to the Hallucination Dream.

There is no theater located near this Hallucination Dream; instead, it is situated below a memorial square.

In the center of the square stands a striking statue.

Every detail of the statue is depicted with lifelike realism, and the flowing robes are powerful and vigorous, perfectly showcasing the grandeur of the actor's performance.

But strangely enough, no facial features are depicted on the face of the stone statue.

Upon closer inspection, it seems capable of replacing any face, perfectly reflecting the essence of actors portraying countless roles.

Without a doubt, this is the statue of Fenna.

The entrance to the Hallucination Dream created by this Eighth Stage actor is located right below the statue.

This place was originally never open to the public.

It was only because of the special circumstances in the city that this dangerous and Hallucination Dream suddenly spread its influence.
