Cressida took notice that Fionn seemed to be in some form of pain, all this time at the back of her mind she thought it was just repercussions of his healing ability. However, an alternative line of thought presented itself as she felt incredibly guilty. It was her decision that brought that upon herself, she didn't enjoy the thought of someone else enduring her pain. However given the reaction, she assumed he was not taking all of it as he was still standing. Cressida listened to him sympathize with her, knowing full well he still wants something.
However, Cressida was asked a question she was not totally sure of the answer no matter how hard she thought, in which she responded with what she knew. Catching her breath, she knew she was exhausting her capabilities as she realized she had one last chance. Taking a moment to check inside as she closed her eyes, she felt most of the spiritual dead spots gone. She felt her reiatsu flow more naturally as she was almost done. "Well, the connection between soul and body is strengthening slowly, that's a good sign. Means we got most of it out. However one last charge should do the trick. In all my calculations I surmised that I would survive the first two even without a healer, but no way could I get to third."
Cressida's memories drifted back to the days she spent trying to keep busy, during pregnancy she couldn't practice swordplay on a daily basis during the second and third trimester, so she tried filling the void with hobbies. She psycho-analyzed the notebook she took from a dead shinigami, she tried knitting but got bored after a load of scarves, she tried online gaming but being a supernatural human made almost all of them feel redundant. So she spent her time doing research and came to the conclusion that this was arguably not the best way to do it, but the way she had to perform such a deed. She wanted to feel every moment, let her sins catch up with her once more so she can move forward. All her mistakes, all that pain, she discarded all the feeling. If she didn't feel it now, it would be pointless to move forward.
"Allow me to explain what's been going on as you probably been following the damage specifically. I use Blut Arterie, but instead of flowing, I send it crashing through my veins collecting the toxin. Which gets expelled out. The first time was just to memorize the sensation, second was to get the majority, third is to get the rest, however even healed it's still where I risk everything and potentially go into limbo. So if you were wondering why I was so afraid to tell my daughter anything of this-"
Cressida's head was downward facing, but two tear drops could be seen as Cressida could feel her emotions get out of control. Everything was heightened as anxiety and withdrawal was getting the best of her. "- I just can't stand having my last memory of her being afraid for me. I want her to remember me happily. Oh dear lord would she remember anything of me? The mere thought is more terrifying than a Menos Grande."
Cressida felt she was going into full blown panic as she didn't know what to react with, her breathing gotten shaky as she was losing rationality for a second. Emotions were starting to get the best of her as she was hitting rock bottom in from of a complete stranger. She felt shame for showing weakness, she felt embarrassed for crying at a mere thought after all she's seen and done, and she felt guilty for putting herself and by extension her daughter in this situation. She hit the floor with her fist and tears as she cursed herself.
"Damn it! I got clean for my pregnancy, well as clean as I could've gotten as I was still carrying around half a decade of toxins. Yet one man leaves my life and I fall back? What's wrong with me!"
