115 – Mana Deficiency
“Have you calmed down now?”
“..Yes…”
Sniff sniff-
Illyana sniffed her nose, covering her eyes with her hand to hide her red eyes. Seeing that there are no more tears, it seems that he has calmed down.
“…Gaon…Can’t leave me…”
“Who is leaving?”
As I stroked her head, Illyana, who had her uneasy eyes, closed her eyes and began to enjoy my hand in hers.
“…Once upon a time… My brother also stroked my hair like Gaon… Often.”
“Really?”
“Yeah…”
“Oh come to think of it…”
Then, at that time, she remembered a memory she had momentarily forgotten.
That’s right…
“Claudia.”
“.. Huh?”
Claudia tilted her head as if she didn’t understand why she was suddenly called.
“This.”
“Isn’t this… a magical plant?”
When I took out her magic candle from her arms and handed it to Claudia, she thanked me with a trembling expression.
“Thank you, the amount of magic vinegar I gave you last time was enough to last for several years, but this is all…”
“It’s still too early to say thank you.”
“…?”
When I turned her head to look at Illyana again, Claudia and Illyana both floated? Above her head and stared blankly at me.
It was as if he wanted to say “What is it?”
“Actually, I think I’ve found a way to cure your sister.”
“What?! Is that true?!”
Oops.
In an instant, Claudia grabbed me by the collar with great force, and I almost fell.
She almost tripped me after training her body to the limit for a month… In fact, wouldn’t Claudia have a natural talent for her warrior?
“What is it? What, what, what?!”
“I’ll tell you, so let go…”
“Tell me quickly! I will do anything!”
“No, let go of the f*ck..”
“Ah…”
Claudia let go of my collar and bowed her head, her face dyed red like a carrot, as if she had noticed her own mistake only then.
“Sorry…I got excited at the moment…”
“…I understand your feelings, so from now on, listen to people first.”
“Yeah…”
Seeing Claudia, who is taller than a normal human woman because she is a half-orc and has a s*xy style, looks so depressed, she has a considerable gap. If she was Korean, she would definitely have become very popular through social media.
Of course, in reality, he is an orc village shaman.
“…So what is that method…?”
“Simple. You can use Illyana.”
“”???””
Claudia and Illyana both looked at each other at the same time.
What was Claudia’s sister’s disease? Isn’t that just magical deficiency?
Then, on the other hand, what was Illyana’s innate problem? That’s right…
“Uselessly large amount of mana, cure Clara’s disease with Illyana’s problem.”
“…Is that possible?”
“It is possible.”
This is a fact that has already been proven numerous times. How?
There are many people on our side who excel in mana-related fields.
“Mana deficiency is a very simple disease.”
“..?”
At that moment, Celeste, who was standing quietly next to me, took off her hooded cloak and opened her mouth.
Claudia was shocked by the beauty of Celeste’s face, but she listened to the fact that she was able to save her sister.
“It is a disease in which the mana generated within the chamber is automatically drained. It is a very simple but incurable disease that has no cure.”
“That…Then there is no cure…”
“Right. However, there is one case in history where mana deficiency has been cured.”
Celeste looked at Illyana gently and continued her words.
“Legendary Archmage Bathory Elizabeth. She was the only one who could cure mana deficiency.”
A person suffering from mana deficiency has a characteristic in which the body rejects mana.
In the distant past, Bathory Erzebet found a way to cure this characteristic while researching on this mana deficiency.
That’s right…..
“Just ignorantly pour mana into her and change her constitution.”
“To…?”
Claudia let out a bewildered voice with her momentary bewildered expression.
It would be absurd. Because it seems like it was me too. However, I heard from Celeste that there is no other way to cure mana deficiency.
“That…What kind of dog sh*t…!”
“If you’re worried about anything, you don’t have to. Instead, she will lose her brother. And you will regret it. It has nothing to do with me anyway, so take care of it…”
“…….”
Claudia was greatly troubled by Celeste’s insensitive words. Seeing Celeste’s serious expression, she recognized that it wasn’t a lie.
“Choose. Whether to gamble with her brother’s life, or to somehow forcefully prolong the lifespan of an ant’s eye and keep him in bed for the rest of his life.”
“……”
Claudia clenched her fists and bit her lips.
You will be troubled. Isn’t she betting with her precious brother’s life, not even her own? Anyone will worry
But if you think about it a little, you’ll have no choice but to come up with an answer.
“..Good. Please. Heal Clara.”
***
Inside Claudia’s barracks. A total of 5…No 6 people are gathered there.
Claudia, the owner of the barracks, her sister Clara, Illyana, Celeste, me, and Veronica hiding in the shadows, a total of 6 people.
“Uh..How do you..?”
“What you do is easy. You just have to put all that nasty mana into this child’s body.”
“Ha..But then…Clara will die…”
“I will not die. Because I am going to take separate action.”
Celeste looked at Illyana with an expression that she couldn’t even feel at all.
It’s an expression I’ve never seen before in the past month. To be honest, the atmosphere is so cold that it’s hard to say anything.
-Hey, that’s the real face of that fox girl, my king. In fact, in the distant past, she was also called the Ice Princess, an unreasonable nickname. It’s ice, but it’s a princess… I don’t know who made it, but I think the naming sense is really poor.
‘Ah…really? I’m surprised I thought he was a person with a lot of laughs.’
-It’s all smoke. It’s because I have a thick face.
From noble mtl dot com
“Could you tell me to shut up when I see the bat woman over there?”
Ah, come to think of it, I forgot, but Celeste can steal me and Veronica’s telepathy. When she was at the top of the rocky mountain she asked how she did it and she said she had communication related control skills..?
-Who is telling someone to shut up, you dirty b*tch?
“Oh, how many animals are as dirty as bats? If you go into the bat cave, it’s full of excrement, gigguk…”
-… Close your eyes for a moment. Slit that b*tch’s throat in 10 seconds…
‘Just keep quiet, both of you..!’
Now we’re here to heal Clara, not to fight.
Oh sh*t, back goal…..Damn it, my head hurts already. As long as Mars isn’t there, I’ll have to mediate between the two of them… I’m not confident. Confidence to stop the runaway of these crazy b*tches.
“…Are there any problems..?”
“..No, a nasty bat just passed by.”
– This year…!
“Then let’s start treatment right away.”
Ignoring Veronica’s cries lightly, Celeste walked towards the sleeping Clara.
Then she motioned for Illyana to come to her side.
“From now on, you just need to inject mana into this child. And that too with the strongest possible output.”
“….Greetings…That’s okay…”
“Shut up and do it. I will take responsibility.”
“Sir…”
Illyana trembled at the momentary burst of Celeste’s momentum. It was very brief, but I realized it. She bridged the gap between herself and Celeste.
“…Okay.”
The only option left for her is to follow her Celeste’s orders. It seems that Celeste Ti also targeted this and released some of her own aura.
Since they’re a party that has to stay together anyway, they’re probably trying to sort things out.
Me? Of course I’m in last place. No, since Illyana is there, is she second from the back?
“…But what if I use up all my mana…”
“Use your abilities. You know?”
“……”
Celestie refuted Illyana’s words with the eyes of a predator as if she were chewing on an herbivore.
“[Unlimited], Use it.”
“Using that…that ability…!”
“No matter how rampant you are, there are three people here who can stop you. Shut up and do it.”
“…..”
In the end, Illyana put her palm on Clara’s chest, who was sleeping in resignation.
And she muttered quietly.
“…[Unlimited]…”
Quaaang-!!!
“?! My…my barracks…!”
With Illyana’s murmur, a huge amount of mana began to gather around her.
Claudia was startled by her mana, which had suddenly started to amplify, but opened her eyes to make sure her brother was safe.
[Unlimited], A rare fraudulent ability that removes mana restrictions.
Celestie is using this ability to cure Clara’s mana deficiency.
“Ughhh…!!”
“Calm down. For now, I just have to focus the mana in her palm.”
“Haaa!”
If there is one problem… Illiana who used [Unlimited] Is unable to control her own mana.
However, that problem was also solved simply beyond my expectations…
[Magic tower lord Iliana’s condition is unstable.]
[Activate remote system #9125.]
With the system window suddenly appearing in front of my eyes, the mana around Illyana began to stabilize. However, this wasn’t Illyana’s direct manipulation of mana… It seemed that a mysterious third party was controlling mana.
According to the system window, the third person in question is probably the system itself.
“…What the heck…”
-It seems that Elizabeth is invisible. Because I was a person who worried a lot about the original body. Wouldn’t this situation be expected?
“Then why didn’t it activate last time…?”
-At that time, I wasn’t the owner of the Magic Tower.
Ah…Come to think of it, it was after I cleared the Sorcery Test that Illyana was appointed as the Master of the Magic Tower.
Does that mean you couldn’t get help from the system before?
“Haa…Haa…”
“Concentrate. It is to spread mana throughout this child’s body.”
“Ugh… Ha ha…”
“Go…Is it okay…?”
Claudia watched her sister forcibly pump her mana with her hands shaking and her eyes wide open.
It seems like she wants to stop right now… Her rationality seemed to stop her from doing so. If you intervene here, not only Clara but also Illyana could be in danger.
“Good. Raise the output of mana as it is.”
“Ha..But…now the limit…”
“There are no limits to you. Nothing is impossible to one with an infinite heart.”
“Ha…Ha…Ha…”
Geeeing-!!
The mana emanating from Illyana’s body became more and more intense. At this rate, it seems that millions of mana are being consumed almost every second.
Only the concentration of mana around there is about 10 times higher than the top of the rocky mountain. If you’re a normal human being, you’ll be torn apart just by going around.
That said, it wouldn’t be strange if Clara, an ordinary person, died instantly… It was Celeste who was blocking that.
Now, Celeste is showing a miracle by pouring Illyana’s mana only into Clara’s mana channel.
If mana touches Clara’s body by even the slightest mistake… Her body will probably be torn to shreds to such an extent that it is difficult to recognize her shape.
But what about Claudia?
“Just stand behind me.”
“Oh…Are you okay?”
“No problem.”
No. There are so many f*cking problems.
First of all, thanks to the distance from Illyana, the mana concentration isn’t very high, but it’s still too much for me to handle.
I’m still trying to pretend I’m okay, but inside I feel like I’m going to go crazy. But now, if I get out of here, Claudia will have to bear all this monstrous mana, so she has to endure as much as possible.
“Ughhh…!”
“Hold on just a little longer.”
“Cool! Cool!”
At that moment, Clara opened her eyes, vomiting her own blood.
“Clara!!”
“Almost done.”
Looking closely, Clara noticed that the color of the blood she spit out was strange.
Usually, the normal color of blood is red or crimson. But the blood she spit out was black. She was a deep, deep black that could not be compared to being pitch black.
“I have removed the impurities inside her body that block mana rotation.. Now I just need to change her constitution.”
“Haa..Haa…Haa..Haa..!”
“Hold on for a while, Erzebe….No, Illyana.”
Geeeing-!!
10 Seconds is short, but for some, it is a long time. Illyana, who was exhausted because her body couldn’t stand it, lost her mind and collapsed.
Celestie also seemed normal on the outside, but if you looked closely, you could see clear sweat running down her cheeks. That’s why her treatment process was difficult.
And most importantly, Clara…
“Quiet…Quick…”
“…The treatment seems to have been successful.”
An incurable disease called mana deficiency that is said to be incurable.
It was a historic moment when the worst incurable disease was cured.
