"To be honest, I can't do it all by myself...... But with his help, maybe it will really work. Kevin looked at Joshua who had taken off his shirt and was lying flat on the bed, caressing his heart and signaling him to relax, while looking at Helliga who was tinkering with something, intentionally or unintentionally.

"I'll make some mental tonic medicine first." Looking at the suspicious glances cast by the two, Heiliga said, "Whether we succeed or not, we will definitely be more or less tired afterwards." Prepare some supplements first, and then you can recover quickly and devote yourself to exploring. All right. Watching the liquid in the large bottle turn from blue to red, Helliga nodded in satisfaction, carefully smoothing the liquid into three small bottles and screwing the cork.

"What the hell are these recipes...... But it seems to be surprisingly useful. Kevin was trained in first aid and medicine by the Church, but he didn't know anything about the herbs and recipes that Helliga had prepared.

"Okay, now that you're ready, I'll talk about the initial treatment plan." Seeing that Hyliga washed his hands and walked over to Joshua's side, Kevin said, "First of all, according to my understanding and judgment, Wiseman must have failed to grasp the essence of the 'stigma', what he did was just some kind of similar, implanted deep hint in his heart. Therefore, I will first use the power of the "Star Cup Crest" to find the "pseudo-stigma", which is the source of the hint left by Wiseman. And then - it's up to this Mr. Helriga. According to you, you are very sensitive to its presence, and your strength is naturally capable of restraining that weird suggestion. So, it's up to you to eliminate that hint when the time comes. No problem. ”

"As long as you can find it." As long as Kevin can pull out the hints hidden in the depths of Joshua's consciousness, he will be 100% able to eliminate this unsettling factor.

Because, the Dragonborn is not affected by any human psychic interference type spells. Even Wiseman is no exception. As far as Heliga knows, the only spiritual power that can influence even the Dragonborn is the mysterious dragon roar "Forced Will" from the demon god Hermeus Mora. Wiseman certainly won't.

"So...... Here we go. Kevin took a deep breath, and the Star Cup Crest in his hand began to shine with various colors, "Joshua, you have to hold back next—because in the process, you will have to relive the most painful memories. ”

“…… I understand. Joshua seemed to tremble a little at the sound of Kevin's words, but in the end, the words that came out of his mouth were extremely firm.

"Knowing the Silver Dawn...... "......With Kevin's words, the seven powers representing the different attributes of the seven yao, the seven powers in charge of different realms, entered Joshua's body one by one. Soon, a huge colored ring was formed next to the bed, and it looked very spectacular. But Joshua's expression was not as rosy as the halo of color—his eyes were closed in pain, and his lips trembled slightly, as if he was desperately trying to endure and not let himself cry out.

Explosions and fires in the quiet village—Levi as a teenager, while placing the girl and himself, rushed out of the house with a sword in one hand—On the country road at night, I saw Karling, who looked like an angel in the moonlight, and the beastly hunter who acted alone—in order to protect his sister, he picked up the pistol that the hunter had thrown aside, and fired sluggishly—the hunter who pounced on him with a saber in his hand after being wounded, and Karling, who was in the middle to protect himself— Angry and grieving Levi arrived—the man pushed open the door of his room, which had become sluggish—

"Hmm...... Now is the time! Kevin shouted aloud—Helriga who had been waiting for a long time rushed forward, and the radiance of the seven rays from the coat of arms in Kevin's hand immediately bypassed Heliga, a soul whose existence they could not recognize—the strange feeling was all too familiar when Helriga's hand caressed the shoulder of a somewhat hot Joshua. He summoned the magic, which turned into a tightrope and easily sliced the curse-like thing. He nodded at Kevin, signaling that he had succeeded, but instead of showing a look of joy, the latter hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and withdrew his strength.

"Whew...... Call...... ......As soon as Kevin's hand was lowered, Joshua couldn't help but gasp deeply, and the painful memories just now were abruptly interrupted when Wiseman first appeared—and then he opened his eyes and saw Kevin as if he was thoughtful, "How is it, did it succeed?" ”

Heliga said he had found something similar...... But according to his description, I'm afraid it's not the real root cause. Kevin shook his head, "You're his most proud work after all, his hints...... The marks and effort carved into your body are certainly far inferior to others. ”

"In other words, the one that was eliminated just now is just a disguise, and the real hint is still engraved in his deepest part?" Heliga pursed her lips, "Good work, Joshua, but it's going to be—"

"Nope. That's it. I'm sorry, Joshua, I can't help any more. Kevin rejected Heiliga's offer, "I can't go on." ”

"Why?" Joshua was anxious, "Don't you know—"

"I certainly knew Wiseman would do that. But the problem is the damage to you. Kevin's face was solemn and he sighed, "Maybe you don't know the difference. That is true. When Wiseman carved this hint into you as a child, it was probably exactly the same as the usual hint. But that is when you have a nervous breakdown and your personality is at its weakest, so his hints are much deeper than usual, and they affect you much more than anyone else. After that, you, who stay by his side as an executor, will definitely accept his so-called adjustment and transformation again...... This hint is deeply ingrained in your heart. What's more troublesome is that now you are already a mentally stable, sound and healthy person...... Your spirit is no longer like it was then, when external forces could penetrate and interfere without any scruples. It instinctively repels outside influences. So, even if I eventually use the power of the Seven Dawns to cut through the layers of fog and find and destroy the true source of suggestion...... At that time, I am afraid that the personality you have built up now will also become fragmented...... In that case, it would be a defeat of the original intention, and I would not be able to explain it to Istelle. ”

"Really...... I ......" Joshua seemed a little sluggish, and Kevin's reasons were so good and reasonable that even though he was in great eagerness now, he couldn't find a single reason to refute them.

"Joshua......" Helriga looked at the friend with some distress. He was the one who could best understand Joshua's eagerness to fight for Estelle with his innocence at this moment, and to fight for his own chances.

"Wait...... If it's a forgery stigma...... Perhaps......" Just as they were both distressed about the matter, Father Kevin suddenly thought of something, and muttered to himself, "maybe...... ...... in the words of "that"

"Are you—" Heliga reacted, since the hint that Wiseman carved was a "false stigma", and even the power of the Seven Rays of the Church could not be broken, then what about using the real "stigma" held by Kevin?

"Hey...... So be it. Seemingly gritting his teeth, Kevin, who had made up his mind, turned around again, "I thought of a new method...... Although there is no guarantee of success. Would you like to give it a try? ”

"Yes." Hearing that there was still a glimmer of hope, how could Joshua give up?

"I'll tell you first, if I succeed in doing this, I'll let you treat Liz to a full meal in return."

“…… No problem. For some reason, a reward that sounded normal seemed to Joshua to have a sense of financial crisis. But it's a big deal, and he can't do that much," I promised. ”
