Chapter 200 200 One loved by Mana
She had normal-looking short brown eyes and a normal air around her, however, someone with a good enough Mana sensitivity could tell at one glance that she possessed an abnormal amount of Mana to be just a normal human.
The Mana was concealed with a good artifact that absorbed her Mana constantly however, it did not stop one from perceiving her high Mana accumulation rate.
[ "She is in a worse state than I imagined." ]
[ "Will she be alright?" ]
[ "It\'s up to him…" ]
El glanced back at him right after the lady asked us who we were and, I bowed to her with an apology for what we were about to do to her.
[ "Do it then. And let\'s pray he succeeds." ]
She nodded at me, a strange seriousness present her her usually joyous eyes.
[[ "Do it Cary. And I dare you to mess up this time! A blunder like this morning will get you killed this time!" ]]
[[ Yes! Yes! I have said it many times already but what happened this morning was not my fault! This world has different standards! I did not know that! ]]
[[ "But you know it now, right? Then do it correctly!" ]]
[[ Of course! what do you take me for, master?! ]]
The two of them were always like this when they talked through their bond but, her anger this time was something I shared with her.
He made a mistake this morning and it cost us our kitchen, I don\'t want to lose a King card as well.
\'There was no replacement available for this one either so, he had to get this right.\'
[[ "Alright then! Do it!" ]]
The woman before us was something the humans called \'one loved by Mana\', one of the few unfortunate ones that were blessed with a high Mana affinity.
Now having a good Mana affinity wasn\'t a bad thing, it was very beneficial.
It gave her a lifespan ten times what normal humans have, resistance against many natural and magical things, good health, and the possibility to become a great mage… however, this person before us was no great mage.
\'She was just a normal human, someone who had certainly lived for a long time, however, her constitution wasn\'t suited to possess the amount of Mana she had in her body.\'
The story of one of the greatest assassins that only killed for vengeance has been made into children\'s books but, his truth is something as simple as any novel plot one can think about.
\'He was the last surviving member of an elvan tribe killed by a bunch of hungry aristocrats and people of high position. He was young and his heart was clouded by revenge. He was gifted with a unique ability to handle, create, and cute curses, medicine, and poison from a young age, and, he used this ability unlike any human could have ever imagined.\'
In Central Bureau of Security (CBS), he, or at least who he used to be, is one of the most wanted criminals to ever exist since there are charges against him for assassinating countless high-profile individuals, but, his methods were something that were nothing less than horror stories all in themselves.
\'A fortress of a powerful criminal organization becomes a graveyard full of zombies; the head of a political leader suddenly explodes in the middle of a public speech; an army of \'undead like\' creatures massacres everything in a military outpost in broad daylight; a marquis of Barnacle empire is poisoned by an incurable disease that though affects an entire assembly but, kills only him.\'
What he had done in his younger days is some of the most unforgettable and iconic crimes that criminals of today try to copy, however, even the CBS knows the once infamous ghost, has long retired after finishing what he had started.
They certainly figured out the connection between all the killings and linked it all to one person, however, they could never figure out where he went, who he was, or why he stopped when he possessed such remarkable abilities.
There were stories, and rumors of him after his disappearance that he still took on contracts of assassinations for a few years however, one day, he just suddenly… disappeared.
And, the reason for his disappearance.
[[ Alright master. I have done as you asked me but controlling her Mana will do nothing if someone doesn\'t introduce the necessary materials into her body and artificially create a Mana core inside her. She will die of Mana suppression if someone doesn\'t act quickly. ]]
[[ "Why were you telling me that bastard? Who do you take me for? I am someone that will invent the treatment methods for BRATS." ]]
[[ Hmmm? Hahaha, master. You are quite funny sometimes. Hahaha. ]]
He was laughing at her, lol.
He was laughing at someone who would be the pillar of the Medical filed in the entire Worldline in the future.
What do I tell him now?
[[ Ohhh! One is going to invent the cure for something that has existed since the dawn of the Worldline~?! One will be verrrrrrrry happy to help with anything related to it! ]]
[[ "Of course Anna! You are the best~! And you are useless Cary!" ]]
Anna was amazing to have believed her absurd words, but that\'s what has made our favorite. She was cute and amazing.
"H-hey! Why aren\'t you saying anything!? What did you do to her?!"
"Ah, apologies. We were distracted-"
"What did you do to her?!"
The sole reason a cold-hearted assassin that had killed hundreds of thousands in cold blood had become a simple bartender of a normal tavern… his wife, his love, his everything.
"We are helping her with her."
"This doesn\'t look like help to me though!"
She was on the ground, her body covered with glowing blue patterns all over her places that resembled tree roots.
Her eyes were blank, glowing with a similar blue color, and, and, she wasn\'t moving, at all.
"Nír Amań, the sole survivor of a prosperous tribe of talented elf folks that became a legend through his great works… you are a master of curses and meds. You should obviously know what is happening to your wife, no?" She said in a heavy voice and as soon as he heard that name, his normal green eyes flashed with a deep purple light.
[ "There is no need to do anything, mister. Please, focus on your wife. She doesn\'t have a very long time, you see." ]
He was going to throw something at her, something very threatening if I am not wrong. However, the pressure behind my Mana voice was more than enough to freeze him in his place.
"Yes, you should focus on her… now, tell me. What do you think is happening?"
She went up to him and crouched down right before him on the other side of his wife.
The hoods we were using were special high-level artifacts so there was no way he was going to know our identities however, he could see her smile clearly.
And, when he saw her caress the freezing cheeks of his wife, he also knew he had gotten himself into a fucked up situation.
"Did you somehow block her Mana accumulation?"
"Correct~! I knew-"
"Absurd! That\'s humanly impossible!"
"Of course, mister. It\'s \'humanly\' impossible." She answered his exclamation with a chuckle of her own which, surprised the worried apothecary even more.
Blocking the Mana accumulation of someone who was blessed with Mana was something not even the absolutes of this world could do, especially when it came to a unique case like his wife.
\'She was blessed by Mana however, she somehow did not possess a Mana heart that could store, pump, and circulate all the mana that she received from all areas of her skin.
She could absorb Mana but she couldn\'t store it, which meant the accumulated mana would be released in the atmosphere right after it finishes traveling through her body… now there should be something wrong with this whole process and she should die in this circulation process happening throughout her body simultaneously, however, her constitution has adapted this process.\'
She could survive even with a constant circulation of Mana happening throughout her body, however, the constant pain she might be feeling every now and then through her body was not something even some of the strongest humans in this world could endure.
She was a unique person herself to be able to endure the impossible, and, the main reason she could do so, is this pretty elf beside her.
A pretty and pitiful elf that does not know we have a dragonlord and Lord of Mana as a helper.
