My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 135

Episode 135. Nursing (1)

Uno’s skin was always pale white.

But now Uno’s skin was flushed bright red as if nothing had happened before.

Even so, I couldn’t give my attention to Uno like that.

More precisely, I couldn’t.

Of course.

From Uno, who was breathing roughly, right now.

“Is this really mana…?”

Excessively pure mana was flowing out.

I trembled my pupils finely as I looked at the mana bursting from Uno’s body.

Blue mana so pure it felt blindingly white.

For a moment, I even forgot my worry for Uno and stared blankly at the mana evaporating in the air.

I still don’t know much about mana in detail.

I only know that mana is the power of life and spreads through the air.

Since I had the system from the beginning, there was no need to know about mana.

Even someone as ignorant as me could notice that the mana flowing from Uno’s body was somehow different.

‘It’s different from cases like me or Elpinire.’

My mana is replaced with ‘mist.’

Elpinire, being an elf, has the power of the World Tree engraved in her mana.

Jini also has darkness melted into her mana itself because Omen became the Dark Spirit King.

Kargon likewise uses rough, earth-like mana characteristic of orcs.

All of us have mana properties different from ordinary mana.

But Uno’s case is different.

“Can a human contain such pure mana…?”

The mana Uno uses is ordinary mana.

But the purity of that ordinary mana is on a different level.

It feels like mana spread through the air has been filtered and filtered to collect only the essence.

I felt like I had experienced the feeling of this mana evaporating in the air somewhere before.

“…Spirit King?”

Right.

The Dark Spirit King, Darkness.

I think if he hadn’t been consumed by dark magic, he would have filled his body with power like this.

The power flowing from Uno was as clean and clear as spirits born from mana gathering in nature.

‘Could it be…’

Scattering mana while unable to regain consciousness.

I felt like I had read about this scene in the journal.

‘Back then.’

When Uno returned to the village alone.

The journal said Uno was staggering as if not in his right mind, scattering mana in all directions.

That’s exactly the same as the current situation.

“Rampage.”

When emotions become intense, mana loses control.

If emotions become so intense that they can’t be contained.

What happens to mana control?

“…”

I’ve never thought about it.

More precisely, I should say there was no need to think about it.

That’s why I could answer with certainty.

Something seriously wrong has happened to Uno right now.

Because of that, the mana sleeping inside Uno’s body has begun to rampage all at once.

I bit my lips finely and reached out to touch Uno’s forehead.

“His forehead is like a fireball.”

His forehead is so hot I wonder if this is really human temperature.

Hot enough that he might die from fever at this rate.

‘I can’t leave him like this.’

There are still many things left to ask.

More importantly, the system is telling me not to let Uno die.

Gritting my teeth, I shouted loudly toward the presence I felt behind me.

“Jini! If you open the kitchen shelf, there should be bandages. Please bring them!”

“Huh? Oh, yes Master!”

“Kargon. You bring some cold water in a basin!”

“Understood.”

“Elpinire, just in case, please heal Uno!”

“Okay!”

Whatever the case, it was time to cool down the boiling fever first.

* * *

“Has it finally gone down a bit?”

Whew.

I let out a sigh of relief and looked at Uno sleeping soundly with closed eyes.

Thanks to wiping his body with water-soaked bandages for several hours, his forehead that was like a fireball finally became a little less hot.

Though that doesn’t mean it’s not hot at all.

“The mana is… still flowing out.”

​

Pure mana was still flowing from Uno.

The fever had only temporarily subsided.

The fundamental problem hasn’t been solved.

I clicked my tongue and turned my gaze to look at Elpinire.

She was clenching her fists tightly and quietly staring out the window.

“Elpinire. It’s not your fault.”

“…I know that.”

Elpinire immediately injected mana into Uno’s body thinking it might help.

But Uno’s current fever isn’t due to illness like a cold, but purely a rampage caused by inability to control mana.

Therefore, Elpinire’s treatment was completely useless for Uno.

Elpinire knows this fact too, but she’s probably frustrated that she can’t do anything.

I clicked my tongue softly and turned my head to look behind me.

“Jini.”

“Yes?”

Jini, who had been looking at sleeping Uno with worried eyes, looked at me and tilted her head.

I got up from the chair and loosened my neck lightly as I asked her.

“I’d like to see Uno’s memories. Is that possible?”

“Of course!”

Originally I wanted to hear it directly from Uno’s mouth, but.

Looking at his current state, it’s uncertain when he’ll even wake up.

More importantly, seeing his current state, I was certain.

‘Uno has definitely lost his memories.’

If the journal is correct, Uno already rampaged once and used that power to revive the villagers and rebuild the village.

It doesn’t make sense for someone like that to rampage again and be unable to control his power.

Uno definitely doesn’t remember that experience.

He probably didn’t even know that the villagers had died.

That’s why I need to read Uno’s memories even more to find out what happened after that.

“Omen, please help.”

-Leave it to me.

A shadow rising from the floor.

Summoned by Jini’s command, Omen flapped its wings and flew toward me.

-Lie down next to that boy, good human.

“Alright.”

Following Omen’s command, I lay down next to Uno and quietly looked up at the ceiling.

Omen landed on my chest, then waddled over and placed its wing against my forehead.

-Then I’ll connect the dreams.

At the voice transmitted into my head, I slowly closed my eyes.

The sensation of my body being sucked into an abyss in an instant.

Like that, like that.

I gradually fell deeper and deeper…

“…!?”

Light suddenly filling my vision.

At the same time, strongly condensed pure mana pushed me away forcefully as if pleading for me not to enter.

At that moment, as I woke up from the dream.

“M-Master!?”

“Master!”

“Are you okay!”

Black, dead blood dripped from my mouth.

“Ugh, cough!”

Haa, haa.

I quickly sat up and coughed violently.

Damn it.

My stomach throbs as if I drank hydrochloric acid.

My esophagus also burns painfully as if it’s being consumed by fire.

I forcibly swallowed the blood rising up my throat again and looked at Uno with trembling eyes.

‘What the hell was that just now?’

Elpinire and Jini seem to be shouting asking if I’m okay, but I can’t hear them.

Of course I can’t.

Just now, the moment I approached Uno’s dream.

I felt a will of rejection as if someone inside was holding the doorknob and resisting.

And I think I know who that someone is.

A person with such pure power.

There’s only one person like that.

I let out a hollow laugh and wiped the blood on my chin with the back of my hand while looking at Uno.

“…Don’t tell me you erased your own memories?”

“Wh-what do you mean, Master?”

“Exactly what I said.”

Uno blocked his own memories.

More precisely, he must have sealed away the terrible memories in his own mind.

I carelessly tried to access his memories and collided with the solid barrier Uno had erected, suffering internal injuries.

Thinking about it that way, everything seemed to make sense.

‘The differences from the diary contents must all be effects created while sealing the memories.’

He lost his memories and came to the village.

This much is true, but for Uno, the person called Airin must have been literally family.

Family who had been with him for 4 years.

The person called Airin also became brighter because she was with Uno in the diary.

And Uno also regained his emotions because he was with the person called Airin.

Naturally, the rampaging Uno wanted to save his family member Airin, but couldn’t save her.

‘Since her head was crushed, she couldn’t be revived with necromancy.’

Necromancy isn’t about restoring the target to its original state.

It’s a technique for controlling dead corpses like puppets.

So even if he revived all the villagers, he couldn’t revive Airin.

Therefore, Uno sealed his memories and forgot the person called ‘Airin’.

And he attached Airin to the end of his name, thinking of himself as ‘Uno Airin’.

“Erasing memories…”

“…How bitter.”

Jini looked at Uno with finely trembling eyes.

Kargon was the same.

But the content in their eyes was different from each other.

Jini was one who had struggled with nightmares.

So she looked at Uno with understanding eyes for erasing nightmare-like memories.

Kargon, on the other hand, was one who wanted to protect memories, so while he couldn’t truly understand Uno, he had pained eyes.

The pain is gradually subsiding.

I exhaled deeply and looked at Uno calmly.

“It was that painful?”

Painful enough that it was okay to erase the happy memories of being with the person called Airin.

Painful enough that he absolutely couldn’t accept the death of the villagers.

“That time was much more painful than this?”

I clenched my fist tightly and staggered up from the bed.

Uno erased his memories.

He’s blocking any approach.

Under such circumstances, even if I enter his dreams again, the result will be the same.

“If I put in a little more effort…”

“In the act of connecting minds, you know that it won’t change anything even if you put in more effort, Jini.”

“…”

This was also what Omen constantly warned me about when first connecting minds.

That entering dreams is quite a dangerous action.

In a way, it’s natural since it’s connecting consciousness to consciousness.

Moreover, my consciousness, being the one connected to, is in a more unstable state.

If I were torn apart in the connected dream, I would become a cripple.

Literally, me in the connected dream is my mind itself.

In the act of connecting mind to mind, even if Jini, who is essentially just a link, puts in effort, nothing would change.

“…”

Jini also knew this fact, so she kept her mouth shut.

I waved my hand lightly toward such Jini and said.

“It’s fine. Don’t worry about it.”

Actually, I wanted to know whether Uno had deceived me or not.

If he had deceived me, I wouldn’t have been able to see Uno as the Uno I knew anymore.

But I learned that Uno sealed away terrible memories himself.

So there’s no need to enter his dreams again.

Above all.

“Now there’s something we need to do.”

“…Something we need to do?”

“Yeah.”

I quietly looked out the window.

The sky gradually beginning to brighten.

Below that, the village still appeared cold and desolate.

“…Let’s go bury them.”

Those who sacrificed themselves to protect the small child until the very end.

* * *

The sun had risen overhead at some point.

Standing beneath it, I quietly closed my eyes and bowed my head.

Before me were dozens of large and small mounds rising from the ground.

“…Though I don’t even know most of your names, rest in peace.”

They weren’t wicked people who tried to use Uno as material for necromancy.

They were wonderful people who truly accepted Uno, an outsider, like family.

Though they became corpses and attacked us due to Uno’s rampage, that wasn’t their fault.

It wasn’t Uno’s fault either.

“…Zero.”

It was the fault of that person called ‘Zero’ who called Uno a failure.

I exhaled calmly, opened my closed eyes, and raised my bowed head.

“Master. It seems someone is urgently coming this way.”

“…Yeah.”

I had already sensed it too.

That someone was running toward this place as if fleeing.

I turned around and slowly moved my feet toward the direction where I felt the presence.
