"Ngh-?!"
Thud-!
Falling forwards off my chair and to one knee on the ground, my hands instinctively shot out to support me, one pressing against the floor while the other grabbed my throbbing head.
At the same time, my heart palpitated wildly, sending pain that surged throughout my entire body like I had never experienced.
"En-Enki...!"
Barely hearing the Librarian urgently cry out, her small steps pattered against the floor as she rushed over.
"Li-- Hk-?!"
"O-oh, goodness...! Enki... Ahh..."
Attempting to call her, my lungs suddenly seized up, causing me to sharply inhale and freeze, my eyes naturally widening while my whole body felt like it was on fire.
As if the blood coursing through me had been replaced with flowing lava, the internal agony was such that I couldn't even think to muster my divine energy to try and reduce the heat.
