This was a strange hall. Its four walls, ceiling, and floor had all been cast from pure mithril. Though Verus was an ignorant good-for-nothing, a thoroughbred dandy, even he knew that pure mithril had powerful effects against all manner of germs and toxins. The laboratories of the finest apothecaries were all made of mithril.
Within this room of gleaming silver, the lamps on the walls burned with golden-green flames. Verus's eyelids twitched wildly. Golden-green flames—within those gentle fires lay immense life force. This was the Life Goddess's primordial divine flame. Even within the Ashir Divine Clan, the Life Goddess's primordial divine flame was an exceedingly rare treasure.
A fist-sized ball of life divine flame could very likely save a gravely wounded, dying god on the battlefield. It was a precious strategic resource.

If an ordinary mortal were here, merely drawing one breath of the air would extend their lifespan by at least three hundred years.
