Eric stood up from his chair and approached Sylvia, taking a few strands of her long silky silver hair, which currently looked as lifeless as the rest of her body.
The old mage clutched her hair in his hands, his lips curling upwards at the sight of the unconscious woman, and went back to the table full of potions.
He then sat back down, his gaze once again returning to linger on her body. "Heh… What an alluring woman! I would be hard-pressed to find any human so beautiful…"
He ran his fingers through his beard and absentmindedly muttered as his other hand busily added the few strands of Sylvia's hair to the clear liquid for the test.
He sighed lightly with a yearning that he didn't know he had and tilted his head down to take a look at the results, when suddenly…
BOOM!
Eric was blasted off his chair and since he was completely caught off guard, he fell down, landing on his behind.
