Chapter 198

"Just drink it and chant Amamiya's name, right?"

Chika Fujiwara confirmed it one last time.

"That's right."

At the moment of confirmation, Chika Fujiwara made the final decision, took the potion out of her pocket, pulled out the wooden stopper, and drank it in one gulp.

In an instant, Chika Fujiwara only felt that the world she saw became colorful, and the whole world began to spin.

She didn't even know that strange sounds came from her mouth, and even pink scale-like things appeared on her skin.

"Strange, why is there such a big reaction for the lowest sequence potion?"

Observing the changes in Fujiwara, Ren Amamiya also felt very surprised; drinking the lowest sequence potion shouldn't have such a big reaction.

After all, this is not the world of the Lord of the Mysteries; there is no such thing as a high sequence in this world.

She shouldn't be able to hear the whispers of high-sequence people, so why is the reaction so big?

To this, Ren Amamiya no longer hesitated; invisible mist instantly shrouded Fujiwara's whole body, completely suppressing the loss-of-control symptoms that appeared on her body.

After the loss-of-control situation was eased, Ren Amamiya heard the prayer for help.

[Amamiya... Amamiya...]

The voice was very slight, but it could be distinguished that it was Fujiwara's voice.

"It seems that the symptoms of loss of control are quite serious, even though it is the lowest sequence potion."

Ren Amamiya muttered in confusion, but he also closed his eyes and put his mind into the Source Castle.

Beside that ancient stone table, there was an extra girl with pink hair.

Fujiwara was pulled into the Source Castle because of the prayer.

"...Ah!"

The girl lying on the table was like a student startled awake in class, her face flushed, her heartbeat accelerating excessively, and she was even panting constantly, as if she had just seen something terrible and was frightened awake.

The first time she looked for that person, the girl finally saw the person standing behind her at the edge of the stone table.

"Amamiya!!!"

The girl rushed up without hesitation; when she rushed into someone, her emotions could no longer be controlled.

"The world... the world is twisted... I seem to hear many strange sounds in my ears..."

"I feel... I feel..."

The world is about to collapse completely.

The girl's mood was very bad, feeling like she had seen the world of a madman with her own eyes; in that world where everything was twisted, she seemed to be affected as well, and it seemed like she was about to merge with that crazy world at any moment.

If she hadn't chanted Amamiya's name at the end, she felt that she might never see Amamiya again.

"Alright, alright, it's fine now... it's fine now..."

Looking at Fujiwara's near-collapse, one can imagine how serious the loss-of-control situation was. If he hadn't been controlling it on the side and suppressing the loss of control with the Source Castle, he was sure that Fujiwara would have turned into a monster without any humanity in less than half a minute.

Using the extraordinary ability of the Soul-Soothing Master to soothe Fujiwara, whose emotions were a bit collapsed, while also gently stroking Fujiwara's hair.

Ren Amamiya also carefully observed Fujiwara's situation with spiritual vision.

"Mm?"

The pollution has receded?

The pitch-black pollution like ink on Fujiwara's spiritual body was receding at a speed visible to the naked eye when he projected his gaze over.

Pollution, can it recede like this?

Even if he hadn't finished reading the entire Lord of the Mysteries, Ren Amamiya knew that pollution absolutely could not be easily receded.

Strange.

Looking at the pollution on Fujiwara's spiritual body disappearing completely, he only felt a bit strange.

He hadn't even used the power of the Source Castle to suppress it, and neither had the Eternal Dark River.

How did the pollution recede?

He carefully checked Fujiwara's spiritual body, ether body, mental body, and astral body again; indeed, no pollution could be detected.

It's really a bit strange.

The low-sequence potion actually has the risk of loss of control; this is really hellish.

Low-sequence potions shouldn't have such serious side effects; after all, there is no such thing as Adam in this world.

Not to mention that even Adam in the world of the Lord of the Mysteries doesn't do this kind of thing.

Besides loss of control, there is even the problem of pollution... although the pollution receded, how did it recede?

Ren Amamiya felt that he needed to pay more attention to this aspect.

He himself seems to be relatively special; he just didn't encounter such a problem.

Loss of control hasn't been encountered, let alone pollution.

It seems that I need to stare at Fujiwara when she promotes in the future.

In order to avoid loss of control and pollution, it becomes very necessary for him to stare at her side.

[I don't want Grandfather to die... I don't want Grandfather to die...]

Suddenly, a prayer voice came to his ears.

A red star slowly fell from the place of endless mist on the ceiling.

Ren Amamiya comforted Fujiwara, whose mood had not yet adjusted, while controlling the star to come in front of him.

The red star flashed a picture.

A gloomy young man holding a knife was about to stab an old man's abdomen, while a girl was rushing toward the old man who was about to face death while praying in despair.

It seems the opportunity was grasped.

Then, according to what you prayed for, give you the corresponding power to change this fate.

Give the prayer the power to temporarily change fate in the form of a gift.

After completing the gift, he looked down at Fujiwara, who was still crying, and Ren Amamiya sighed helplessly; it would probably take some time to coax her well.

But there was really no way; after all, Fujiwara, an ordinary girl, experienced loss of control and pollution, so emotional instability was inevitable.

By the way, can the Source Castle lock onto Hayasaka?

Just when Ren Amamiya thought so, a red star fell from the ceiling filled with mist.

Ren Amamiya looked into the star and indeed saw the picture of Hayasaka reading the diary.

It seems that it really can.

However, it should be because of the diary that Hayasaka's position was locked.

He then tapped lightly on the star.

"Hayasaka, the Hatamoto side is closing the net."

"I have something temporary here and can't get away; you go take a look first, I'll come over later."

Hayasaka Ai on the star was obviously stunned, but she started to act very quickly.

Ren Amamiya saw this and didn't continue to watch, but continued to carefully soothe Fujiwara, who was still sobbing.
