My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer

365 Breakdown



However, the solution to this problem should be something else, that was something the old wizard had already concluded. He then asked Adrian to give the two books to Megan.

“The answer to solving this problem is going to be a little more complicated than simply a healing artifact. I had already found a solution, but how to turn that into an artifact is going to be a slightly more complicated task.” Zhanid said.

When Megan picked up one of the two books, the girl’s eyes widened with surprise.

“When I stabilized the boy, I realized that his mana that is intensifying the effects of the curse.” Zhanid said.

Megan soon understood the point, but was left with a doubt in her mind.

‘But these side effects have only been showing up when he uses a gene.’ She thought.

What happened was this: when Luke uses a Gene, the mana inside him is reorganized, so that it ends up activating and intensifying the curse. Zhanid was considering this possibility, since the boy showed no problems when using spells, after all, any feat connected with the magical arts only requires an expenditure of mana.

But the old wizard knew that if Luke didn’t tell him that he was a Genes user. Most likely he had a reason, in fact, just being in Melki was more than enough reason to keep it a secret.

The book Megan was holding was one of the new contents Zhanid had picked up on his last trip. It was a rare book that she had not yet read. It was a grimoire that did not appear to be Melki’s. The cover was made of red leather, with a red border. Its cover was of red leather, with gold details. In front of the cover was a title engraved with a golden material. The name of the book in question was:

“Magic principles of internal mana manipulation.” Megan said aloud.

Leafing through the many pages of the book, one could find hundreds of concepts about just that. How to reorganize a person’s internal mana, after all, mana collapses are one of the possible causes of the intensification of a curse.

The second book appeared to be from Broteforge. It was exactly what Megan needed, the name of the book was “Index of casualties and symptoms of curses”. As Megan looked closely at the two books, Zhanid chose to start explaining his theory to the three young mages.

“The solution I imagine we can look for is an artifact to reorganize the boy’s mana. The Third chapter of the curse grimoire comments on just that. Mana Breakdowns directly affect the bearer, intensifying effects of curses and curses.”

Alice listened intently, and began to jot down some ideas with the few notions she had regarding circles that managed mana. If reorganizing mana was even remotely similar to creating a magic circle that requires mana, she already knew more or less how to start the process.

Adrian stood next to Megan, both watching the two books, they were commenting on what could be done. With a certain enthusiasm, they both felt compelled to be able to help their new friend in trouble.

Zhanid was watching the two from a distance, giving his observations and answering questions from the two young magicians. Sometimes Alice stood up and went to ask them about their magic circles. The whole group was involved with starting the project of Luke’s recovery.

However, it was getting late and staying in the medical center was not the best possible decision at the moment. Because of this and other factors, the group started to go to their lodgings. Adrian and Alice left first. Before leaving, Zhanid checked Luke’s condition once more, apparently he was already well, he just remained unconscious.

The old wizard then left, leaving only Megan and Meredith in the room.

The half-fox was upset, she felt so helpless in that situation. Her previous knowledge was of no use in the midst of this mess, all her experience was of little value. After all, she never had much interest in genes, magic, skills or mana. In Megan’s case, however, as much as her concern continued, she was now more relaxed about how to help Luke, which lessened some of the weight she was feeling.

Both were sitting, each on one side of the bed. Megan was flipping through the two grimoires of magic, while Meredith was just taking up various thoughts that were flying through her head. Several hours passed, dawn had finally arrived.

It was well into the night when Luke began to cough uncontrollably.

Megan and Meredith jumped out of their chairs, both extremely worried and ready to call for help. Both girls’ faces were pained; they exchanged glances, knowing exactly what the other was thinking.

However, to the surprise of both girls, when the coughing stopped. Luke opened his eyes and lifted his chest. He then placed one of his hands in front of his head, while with the other he supported himself to stand up.

“What happened? I feel like I’ve been asleep for days.” Said the half-wolf, in a trembling voice.

Luke’s Body was still weakened, mostly by intense fatigue. Even though the curse was now under control. He still felt tired from all the symptoms that had occurred in his body, even though none of them had caused any marks, they left a severe post-traumatic-stress.

“Welcome back Luke.” Meredith said, with a big smile on her face.

“I thought I was going to lose my new assistant.” Said Megan, letting out a sigh of relief.

[Welcome back, big boy.]

‘You put me to sleep?’

[I told you you wouldn’t like it, but it was better to just wake up when everything was resolved than to remain trapped for hours in your own consciousness].

‘Still, what would happen if they hadn’t been able to heal me.’

[You would never wake up again, though, if you remained inside your own head, if that happened…]

‘What would occur?’

[If you were trapped inside your consciousness, and your body died. I have a certain doubt whether your soul would go to the second plane, or be abandoned forever within an infinite time-break].

‘I see. In the end there was no other better option. Thanks for that Balance, at least I wasn’t left for hours thinking the worst.’

Luke let out a small laugh. Soon after, the two girls began to explain everything that had happened. Megan began by telling what had happened to Luke’s body, then explained how she had brought him to the medical center.

How her sister and she were now going to work on the artifact to help Luke, and how Adrian and Zhanid were willing to help as well. Luke listened to everything intently, with a gigantic gratitude for the two girls who remained by his side. He was extremely grateful for all the new allies he had met at the academy.

Meredith had a lot to talk about with Luke, in particular, she had discovered some extremely disturbing news within the academy. However, with the half-wolf’s condition, this was certainly not the best time to create more problems in his head.

So for this reason, she opted to hold on for a few more days to a piece of information that could completely change how the two of them were living in the academy. Perhaps it was necessary to take precautionary measures against this.

Megan then began to explain what she, Adrian, Alice and Zhanid had talked about. Luke now possessed a much clearer sense of how magic worked, so what had previously been a bit more abstract to understand now made a bit more sense.

Although the way Megan explained it was a bit confusing, this time he took the liberty to go questioning what she had explained.

“Zhanid concluded that your curse is affected by a regrouping of your mana. Something you do is moving your mana within your body, aggravating the state of your curse. At the time I figured it might be this special half-wolf meditation, but I preferred not to comment to Zhanid since you said it was a secret.” Megan said.

The moment the girl said this, Meredith was amazed. She soon concluded that what Luke had actually done was to have used a Gene Skill again. She then became afraid, after all, what would happen if they found out that he was a Gene carrier?

The half-fox’s heart was beating fast, several bad thoughts were going through her head. The new problems, what could happen. She began to question if it was really possible to find a solution to Luke’s curse, however, when she looked at the way the half-wolf and Megan were talking. That doubt disappeared.

Luke and Megan were analyzing all the possibilities, with a gigantic seriousness. Even though he was a novice in the magical arts, he appeared to be understanding the conclusions the girl said.

“My sister is going to create a magic circle to control her mana. We will need in the next few days to analyze how she behaves normally. So when there is a fluctuation, the artifact will control and channel her mana.” Said Megan

“However, that has an obvious problem doesn’t it?” Luke said, looking into the girl’s eyes.

Megan then sighed and confirmed with her head.

“We will have to assess how your curse behaves on your mana” Megan said.

The moment she said that, Luke looked down with a slightly confused face. On the spot, the half-fox realized that would be a problem.

“What does that mean?” Meredith asked

Megan then looked into the half-fox’s eyes, and with a serious countenance she explained.

“We’re going to have to repeat what happened today to understand how to help Luke.”
