Synopsis

The chapter focuses on the aftermath of a battle where Zeke is gravely wounded and imbued with demonic energy, making holy magic ineffective. The Saint, realizing traditional healing won't work, decides to perform a dangerous surgery, using her own mana to absorb the demonic energy plaguing Zeke. This process drastically alters the Saint’s left hand, turning it entirely black as she successfully removes the demonic energy and begins repairing his internal damage. There is an underlying conflict with those around her who doubt the unconventional methods she uses.
