(Maria's POV)
With the help of Emeraldine's Alchemy and the assistance of Partner's lower-level Alchemy, alongside all of my Alchemy Skills and our combined knowledge and experience, we managed to create a cure for the Miasmic Mold infecting the villagers, it took us almost half a day, and we didn't rest until we finally got it right.
It was tiring, but once we finished, the people slowly felt better, the effects were almost instantaneous, the mold was cleansed from their bodies, and their bodies slowly regained their vitality. The people still had to rest, so we left them sleeping through the rest of the day.
Emeraldine wanted to go back to the forest and remake it right away, but we stopped her and told her to eat and sleep, she was too exhausted, and overusing her powers would only do her more bad than good.
"Zzzzz…"
And just as I told her, she was indeed just sleeping right now, the moment she sat over the bed, she fell asleep instantly! Geez, she was really exhausted.
"Sleep well, dear."
I gave her a little kiss in her cheek, and covered her in warm bedsheets before leaving downstairs, as I joined everyone else on continuing our small dinner.
As for Ash, he was also sleeping in another room, he seemed healthy, but we didn't knew when he would wake up now.
He felt different, however, the Demonite core on his chest had been purified, as if I had accidentally drained all the miasma when I ate the Evil God Fragment in there.
It was now glowing with a transparent, silver color, and instead of holding Miasmic or Dark powers… it seemed to have absorbed whatever was left of the Ancient Spirit Tree's powers, maybe even the tree's soul.
"Ash seems to be stable, and Emeraldine's sleeping peacefully." I sighed in relief, sitting down and drinking some tea. "Finally, there's peace…"
"Yeah, it was rather rough." Lucifer sighed. "At least, the child's fine now. At the end, he was indeed victim of that fragment, and probably of whatever vampire was chasing him around and forced him to do this."
"If he wakes up, we'll have a lot of questions to ask to that brat!" Partner said.
"Hahaha, well, it would be better if we go easy on him. He must be someone similar to Laura and Takeshi." Said Jonathan.
"I pity him… He reminds me of myself, when I was controlled to do things I didn't wanted to do by that crown…" Sighed Tear. "He's healthy, right?"
"Yeah, don't worry." I nodded, Nyx sitting on my lap the second I arrived.
"Mama, can we play with Ash when he wakes up?" She wondered innocently.
"Hehehe, maybe?" I wondered. "But for now, just let him rest, he's very tired."
"Aww… Oway." Nyx nodded, eating a big sandwich her father prepared for her. "Nom, nom, nom…"
"Should we stay longer here?" Wondered Lucifer. "Or…?"
"I.. I would love to stay longer, but I'm worried about my brother…" I sighed. "For now, let's just stay another day for tomorrow, and depart past tomorrow, so Emeraldine can spend the rest of the day with them. In fact, if she really wants to… I wouldn't mind leaving her behind for a while, so she can connect back with her family."
"R-Really? But without Emeraldine around…" Partner got a bit sad.
"Partner, don't be selfish." Lucifer sighed. "Emeraldine can do as she pleases. She's not chained to anybody. We've freed her from such a thing long ago…"
"It all depends on her anyways! Not like she'll disappear or something, we can come visit her or something." I smiled. "I just want her to be happy."
"I guess you're right…" Partner sighed.
"I know its hard but… Let's keep moving forwards." I sighed. "Even after all that has happened… Let's enjoy the little things too. Tomorrow's a new day and all!" I tried to cheer everyone up.
It worked only a little bit, but hey, that's everything I could do right now…
Later, as dinner ended, I helped Nyx go to sleep, and then I decided to take a warm bath while glancing at the moon from the window of the bathroom.
And finally, I decided to check on my annoying System Notifications, which I've ignored because I was too concentrated with everything else.

Ahhh! I'm getting much closer to Max Level, well, that's nice. Though I wonder what I would even evolve into if that time comes… Maybe just another type of Titan?

Once the next morning came, I woke up early in the morning, finding that Emeraldine was already awake, preparing breakfast for us and his uncle who had woken up all energized.
When I walked downstairs, I found everyone there too. It seemed this morning was rather beautiful as well, without the miasma contaminating everything, the sky looked so clean and nice.
"Good morning, Maria!" Emeraldine said with a gentle smile. "I'm preparing pancakes! Do you want some?"
"Sure!" I smiled. "Hello everyone- Oh, August!"
"Maria." August smiled. "Thank you for everything… I've just woken up, but now I feel like I was born anew! And the skies are finally no longer darkened… I heard what happened from Emeraldine… Again, thank you so much…"
"Oh, no problem about that. We were just doing what we could…" I nodded. "More importantly, about Ash…"
"Yeah, we already explained to him about that." Lucifer smiled.
"Hey, stop interrupting when people speak!" Partner said, bonking Lucifer's head.
"E-Eh? You do that all the time!" Lucifer angrily said.
"Nuh-huh, I never do that." Partner crossed her arms.
"You have terrible memory…" Lucifer sighed.
"Ahahahah… Well, yes, I did heard about Ash as well! He's still sleeping, but he seems quite healthy and fine!" August smiled. "I'm glad he's alright… That boy didn't deserved what happened to him."
"Yeah…" I sighed.
Suddenly, Nyx came flying from the second floor.
"Mama! Papa! Ash woke up!"
