Drip… Drip… Drip…
The monotonous sound of an electrocardiogram monitor faintly reached his ears.
The air was filled with the scent of disinfectant. The incandescent light was dazzling. Matou Yuu felt his head was fuzzy and slightly frowned.
He struggled to open his heavy eyelids.
The first thing that entered his vision was long, wavy, sea-like blue hair and a cute little face with perfect features.
Tiamat Lily was nestled at the edge of the bed, carefully observing her child. Her bright, clear red eyes — like a cross — clearly reflected the boy's face, which looked extrely pale from magical energy depletion.
This… doesn't seem to be the hotel I was looking for…?
What happened?!
Matou Yuu's mind went blank for an instant. Then, he abruptly sat up and unconsciously threw off the blanket.
"Shhh—"
He felt a slight stinging pain on the back of his hand.
Only then did he notice the dical catheter inserted into the back of his hand, with cold glucose solution being dripped into his body one drop at a ti through the IV line.
When he woke up, Tiamat first exclaid "Ah—" in surprise, then imdiately extended her soft little hands to gently push his shoulders, making him lean back against the hospital bed.
"Please don't move yet… Your body is very weak."
Matou Yuu belatedly regained his senses and looked around the hospital room, muttering quietly, "This is… a hospital?"
After falling into a coma due to magical energy depletion, he had been transported to the hospital.
Tiamat softly humd and, like a child who had made a mistake, slightly lowered her eyes, saying in a sowhat disappointed voice, "I'm sorry. I promised to protect you, but in the end I completely drained you."
Seeing Tiamat's apologetic face, Matou Yuu was first surprised, then burst into loud laughter.
He reached out and gently stroked Tiamat's soft, slightly wavy blue hair. "Magical energy shortage is the Master's dereliction of duty. Why are you apologizing?"
Tiamat seed to feel a bit guilty. She gently took Matou Yuu's hand that wasn't connected to the IV and rubbed it against her soft cheek, saying in a self-reproachful tone, "No matter how I think about it, I failed to control my power properly this ti."
Because of Gilgash's repeated provocations, Tiamat had shown no rcy this ti. As a result, when she used magic, she had simultaneously absorbed the magical energy supplied by Matou Yuu.
She contemptuously glanced at the IV tube connected to Matou Yuu's hand and continued muttering, "Besides, this strange water can't fill Yuu's stomach at all."
Seeing her guilt-filled expression, Matou Yuu's tense nerves completely relaxed.
He used the hand not connected to the IV to gently stroke Tiamat's soft face.
"You really are a reliable Mother."
Tiamat imdiately nodded "Ah" and showed a proud expression, as if this was the most natural thing in the world.
Tiamat's "Mama Power" stat wasn't that high in the Deter's Ranking, but in reality she was trying very hard to fulfill her role as a "mother."
And this clumsy attempt to please her child was inherently very endearing.
"By the way, this is a hospital, right? Did you know what you were doing when you brought here?"
Looking at the obedient Mother Goddess, Matou Yuu suddenly rembered this matter.
Hearing this, Tiamat Lily briefly explained what had happened at the ruins earlier.
After hearing the last part, Matou Yuu was sowhat surprised and muttered quietly, "So that chief arranged it?"
Judging from the opponent's movents, the police chief was clearly also a person pulling strings behind this Holy Grail War.
Had he actually offered to provide a shelter…?
As its na suggested, the Snowfield Central Hospital was the largest, most advanced, and highest-level comprehensive hospital affiliated with the military in Snowfield City. Without Orlando's special arrangents, Matou Yuu — a foreigner with no background or identification — would never have been able to be admitted to the highest-level special treatnt ward in the middle of the night.
He said you need two days of rest and even brought so gifts. After Tiamat finished speaking, she pointed to the beautiful fruit basket on the table and several bottles of high-grade pure milk.
Then she stared at the milk for a while before suddenly having an idea. Her bright red eyes lit up.
A ray of light shone down, and her originally small body gradually returned to its original form. The magically shaped dress had just the right thickness, perfectly accentuating her curvaceous and mature figure. Long, wavy blue hair flowed down, further highlighting her incomparably beautiful and gentle features. However, her red eyes were exceptionally clear and charming, combining the allure unique to a mature woman with the innocent cuteness of a girl.
"What is this…?" Seeing Tiamat return to her original form, Matou Yuu couldn't help but be slightly dazed.
"This strange water can't fill Yuu's stomach at all. You fainted because I completely drained your magical energy. So as long as there's enough magical energy to replenish it, your body will recover quickly."
After Tiamat finished speaking, she naturally nestled beside the boy and lay sideways on the large hospital bed. She gently wrapped her arm around Matou Yuu's shoulder and said in a very soft and beautiful voice, "If I keep giving my magic to Yuu, Yuu will get better soon."
Because of her movent, the distance between the two suddenly beca incredibly close. Just as Matou Yuu was about to open his mouth, she turned his face and buried it in her ample chest.
An indescribable fragrance drifted to his nose. If he got even one centiter closer, he could directly touch the blue-haired goddess's warm skin. His voice suddenly stopped. His heart was pounding violently.
At that mont, icy blue text quietly appeared.
[Severe malnutrition detected in the breeder. Your "Sea Spirit Larva" is dissatisfied with the poor-quality feed provided from the outside world and has fallen into extre maternal anxiety, attempting to give you high-concentration "Deep Sea Nutrient Essence."]
[Currently allowed daily tasks: Cooperate with the larva's "feeding" behavior. Absorb "Deep Sea Sap" from the larva's embrace, calm the larva's emotions, and thereby repair the host's atrophied "Basal Infusion Pathway."]
[Task Reward: "Basic Infusion Tube" painless blockage removal & expansion package, "Deep Sea Storage Baby Care Bag" ×1]
Drip… Drip… Drip…
The previous casual conversation in the room had disappeared. Only the sound of the monitoring equipnt could be clearly heard.
He didn't know what rewards completing the task would bring, but there was nothing particularly to say, right?
Matou Yuu took a deep breath, slowly buried his face in Tiamat's arms, and surrendered to that incredibly soft sensation. He felt the reassuring warmth and occasionally gently rubbed against her, his expression exceptionally calm and gentle.
In his heart, he couldn't help but recall the wonderful scene in the Reality Marble that day. Thereupon, he unconsciously turned his gaze toward Tiamat.
Tiamat simply held the boy tightly, lowered her eyes, and gently looked at his face.
"Of course, Yuu." She gently stroked the boy's soft hair, her voice as gentle and calm as a heavenly lody.
To give him the purest and most concentrated form of her magic, Tiamat's slender fingers moved to the front of her dress. With a faint shimr of blue light the fabric parted and slid down her shoulder, fully exposing one of her full, heavy breasts.
The pale, flawless skin glowed faintly under the hospital lights, the large, soft mound rising and falling with her gentle breathing. Her nipple, a delicate pastel pink, was already stiff and glistening with a single thick droplet of pearlescent milk that carried the faint scent of the deep ocean and night-blooming flowers.
She cupped the back of his head with tender care and slowly guided his face forward until his lips brushed against the warm, velvety skin of her breast.
"Drink, Yuu… Take everything you need from ," she whispered, her red eyes half-lidded with gentle affection.
Matou Yuu's breath hitched against her skin. Then, almost instinctively, he parted his lips and took the swollen nipple into his mouth. The mont he sealed his lips around it and gave the first tentative suck, a warm, thick stream of sweet milk flooded his tongue.
The taste was overwhelming — rich, creamy, slightly sweet with a clean oceanic saltiness, and so potent with magic that it felt like liquid starlight sliding down his throat. Every swallow sent a powerful surge of energy straight into his core, flooding his atrophied pathways and making his entire body tingle with heat.
He sucked harder, cheeks hollowing rhythmically as he nursed. Each pull drew another generous spurt of milk from Tiamat's breast. So of it overflowed the corner of his mouth, trickling down his chin in warm rivulets. He didn't stop. He couldn't. The more he drank, the more the "Deep Sea Sap" filled him, thick and nourishing, calming the anxious Sea Spirit Larva inside him with every greedy gulp.
Tiamat held him close, one hand gently cradling his head while the other stroked his hair in slow, soothing motions. A soft, maternal sigh escaped her lips as she watched him suckle so earnestly from her. Her breast felt warm and heavy in his mouth, the nipple pulsing gently with each swallow as more of her magical milk flowed into him.
"…"
"…"
Beautiful yet intense, and at the sa ti gentle magic continuously flowed into his body with every wet, rhythmic pull of his lips.
It was unknown how long this continued, but an unprecedentedly powerful magical energy filled his entire body.
"Burp."
Matou Yuu let out a long, satisfied burp, a thin trail of white milk still glistening on his lower lip and chin. His face had regained a healthy color, and his eyes looked clearer than they had in days.
Seeing the boy's face regain its color, Tiamat also happily exclaid "Ah—."
She gently wiped the milk from his mouth with her thumb, then brought the sa thumb to her own lips and licked it clean with a soft, pleased smile.
Just then, system text appeared before their eyes once again.
[Beep! Host's basic magical energy has reached 1/10 (Rank: D), eting the minimum allowable threshold for "Deep Sea Essence." Beginning reconstruction…]
[Your magic circuits have been upgraded. In the current state, you can perfectly store high-concentration magic without being affected by the sanity reduction of the primordial sea.]
[Current Magical Energy: D → C]
You have acquired a special ability: Imaginary Treasury (Neo-Babylon)
[Using black mud as an entrance, connecting to an imaginary space. Everything swallowed by the Sea of Life will be branded as "contaminated" and automatically added to this mountain of treasures.]
[Opening the imaginary gate at any ti will allow these black mud weapons to be unleashed like a torrential rain.]

[Ding! Multiple high-level mythical weapons detected.]
(Note: All inventory listed above is from last night's stock.)
(Sponsored by a wealthy upstart, the entire file has been converted to "Black Mud" format and is ready for imdiate use.)
Matou Yuu's heart skipped a beat.
Holy shit!
Gilgash had just launched a fierce attack with the Gate of Babylon last night, and the Sea of Life had already taken and absorbed all those treasures?!
They swallowed other people's Noble Phantasms, contaminated them with black mud, and unleashed them as their own exclusive Noble Phantasms…
If Gilgash saw his next opponent using a degraded version of his own armory, wouldn't he be so angry he'd have a stroke on the spot?
Imagining that truly interesting scene, Matou Yuu couldn't help but grin.
While he was lost in thought, suddenly, along with Tiamat's gentle embrace, drowsiness attacked him without any warning.
Matou Yuu's eyelids felt as heavy as lead, constantly being pressed down.
And finally, he fell into a deep sleep.
The hospital room was warm and quiet.
Drip… Drip… Drip…
The monotonous sound of the machine testing equipnt rang in his ears, but his consciousness was hazy, as if he had wandered into a strange gray-white dream.
…
Deep within this central hospital building, in a special intensive care unit.
A pale white mist symbolizing plague and nothingness spread silently through the cold ventilation ducts like it had its own consciousness, reaching every corner of the hospital…
