I’m Someone Else

Thomas refused to waste a single moment. If he could, he would have willed his body to get back to top condition, but alas, it wasn’t possible. He must have patience. The meds he brewed required concentration. If the heat was too high or too low, it would affect the meds’ efficacy.

It took him more than an hour to finish brewing. He poured the meds into a bowl and waited until the steam was no longer billowing, then he picked the bowl up and gulped everything down.

He felt a burst of flames charging down his throat and his digestive tract, finally settling in his belly. The heat coursed through his veins, boiling his body up, but Thomas didn’t feel any agony. Instead, he felt a wave of comfort traveling through his body. The meds were warm in nature, and what he had to do now was meditate a little so his body could absorb the meds.

Quickly, he sat down cross-legged, and he closed his eyes to feel the changes in his body. Time passed, and half an hour had gone by eventually. Thomas’ shirt was drenched, and beads of sweat poured forth from his whole face and dripped to the ground. A layer of fog had filled up the room thanks to the evaporation of Thomas’ sweat. If someone were to come in, they would probably think they were in a sauna.

Thomas could regain all of his strength if he were to absorb all the herbs he bought, but that was if nothing were to happen to him during the process. For example, if he was disturbed during this session, the remaining efficacy would go to waste.

Another half an hour went by, and a long rush of air escaped Thomas’ lips. His eyes snapped open, and two bolts of lightning jumped into the air. Alright, hard work pays off. That was a good session. Not a drop went to waste. Thomas felt a lot better than he used to. Still, all the sweating took a lot out of him.
