i became a shadow

Chapter 241 DEM
The sound of boiling water from the water dispenser sang happily in the corner of the hall, and everyone felt a little hard to calm down.

"In other words, Mana can only live for ten years at most?"

Wuhe Shidou didn't want to accept this cruel reality.

"That's right, she looks like a broken doll to me, with excess magic power remaining all over her body. If people are compared to machines, then Mana's body is close to useless."

"Now she can stand in front of us well, but at the cost of overdrawing her vitality. As Mana's elder brother, I feel obliged to tell you this."

Duo told the truth, and stared seriously at Wuhe Shidou's silent cheek with bright red pupils.

"... Duo, you must have a solution, right?"

After a long time, he raised his head resolutely: "Zhena is still young, her fate should never be so miserable!"

"Unfortunately, I'm not good at healing magic. Although the recovery crystal can heal the injury, the situation is complicated for Zhenna. What she overdraws is her vitality."

On this kind of issue, there is no need for Duo to lie.

"How could this be?"

Wuhe Shidao couldn't believe it and fell down on the sofa, feeling very depressed for a while.

"Ratatosk can indeed solve the problem of magic power transformation, but overdrawing vitality..."

Wuhe Qinli didn't answer directly, but she also indirectly expressed her meaning.

Tohka and Yoshino were a little depressed, and the girl gave them a relatively good impression. When they learned that the other party's life was numbered, this made the kind elves full of sympathy and pity.

"And judging by her performance, it seems that she still doesn't know about it."

Duo added.

"This time AST is too much. It is playing with and trampling on other people's bodies at will, and it is still high-sounding, and it is just saying what it says to protect ordinary people!"

Wuhe Shidao's chest was almost burst by anger, and his nails sank deep into his palm.

Is this the reason why she dare not tell me where she lives?
Members of the Marine Self-Defense Forces!

"It doesn't have to be AST. I have seen Mana's display device. She is very different from Tobiichi Origami. Although I don't understand the principle of the device, I can still perceive some structural components."

"It's not AST, so who is it?!"

Wuhe Shidao asked anxiously, which made Duao dumbfounded. In fact, he didn't know, after all, he was just an outsider.

"Deus Ex Machina is referred to as DEM for short. This is a super company in the UK. It is the only one that can provide display devices besides Ratatosk, the army, and arms dealers."

"So sure?"

Hearing this, Wuhe Qinli cursed disgustingly.

"That unscrupulous company will do whatever it takes to achieve its goals. Human experimentation has not happened once or twice. Moreover, the recent situation shows that AST and DEM have close transactions. Takamiya Mana is probably an employee dispatched from this company."

"How is the strength of the DEM club?"

Duo suddenly asked, observing from the perspective of a dark shadow ninja, Takamiya Mana's strength can be described as extremely strong.

Even if it doesn't reach the elf level, it can be conservatively estimated that it has extreme strength.

Well, another woman stronger than him.

"It's terrifying. A large number of elites have gathered. The display devices are also world-class. There are even a lot of air battleships."

Wuhe Kotori was very disgusted and disgusted, but he had to admit that it was powerful and terrifying.

"Thirty years ago, the space shock that shocked the world exploded in the center of the Eurasian continent. Almost all countries were affected, and their control power was greatly reduced. The DEM agency rose from here and gradually became a behemoth."

"This is really difficult."

After listening to the explanation, Duo felt a headache. It is obvious that DEM is not a good stubble, and it has risen and thrived in the chaotic era.

If there is no smell of blood, how is that possible?At least Duo wouldn't believe it.

"and……"

Itsuka Kotori silently glanced at Tohka and Yoshino.

"Moreover, Westcott, the executive chairman of DEM, seems to be very obsessed with the elves. Unlike AST, he does not deal with annihilation, but rather captures them."

When the words fell to the ground, Duo's expression froze.

Doesn't this mean that there is an inevitable battle between them?

"Duo..."

Tohka's eyes were complicated, and Yoshino was also afraid to shrink her body.

"Did I cause you trouble again?"

Her tone was a little low, listening to Kotori's words, then why does DEM look so powerful, will Ou suffer from pain and injury because of this?

Although Yoshino did not speak, her expression was full of self-blame.

"How could it be? It's too late for me to be happy to protect you."

There was a trace of teasing in Duo's words, but the sincerity and determination in the words made everyone feel it.

"That's right, this guy is an elf himself, and he's so annoying, he's the first to be caught if anyone else wants to catch him!"

Wuhe Qinli comforted her.

"Your words are very discriminatory."

"No, I don't mean to belittle the Duo lady."

"...Why would you know?"

"Duo, I told Kotori!"

"...Tohka, you are kind like a little angel, and you have successfully healed me."

"Oh, yes, hee hee, I will continue to work hard!"

Suddenly, the originally depressing atmosphere dissipated, and everyone was amused.

"Wait, shouldn't we find a way to solve Mana's physical problems?"

Aimei's kind Wuhe Shidou quickly brought the curving train back on track.

Everyone except him coughed twice in a very tacit understanding.

Ding~
At this time, the water dispenser is also ready to burn, and the green light keeps flashing, reminding people with dry mouth and tongue, go and enjoy it.

"Actually, I have another way."

Duo picked up the teacup and took a sip of the black tea that was getting colder.

"any solution?!"

Wuhe Shidou hurriedly sat beside the other party.

"Just now I reviewed all kinds of magic knowledge in my mind, and found that there is indeed a kind of water magic that can make up for the vitality that the human body lacks, but the treatment time is relatively long, and it needs to last for a month without interruption."

Duo put down the white porcelain tea set and said flatly.

Overdrawing one's life force is almost an unsolvable problem in Starry Sky Continent, and no one would dare to do so unless they give up on themselves.

Again, fortunately she is an ordinary person.

"It's good if it can be cured, and it doesn't matter for a month." Wuhe Shidao thanked excitedly.

He was afraid that words such as "I can't save him and wait for death" would come out of Duo's mouth.

"Then it's up to Shidou-kun how to tell her the truth."

"It's natural!"

Wuhe Shidao nodded immediately.

"Unexpectedly, the commander still underestimated you, even this kind of problem can be solved."

Wuhe Kotoli rested his chin with his hands, narrowed his eyes slightly, like a perspective mirror, trying to see through Duori inside and out.

"Commander Kotori, what do you think of the deal I mentioned earlier?"

"Unfortunately, this commander is only the combat commander and cannot decide this matter. I have already reported it, and it depends on whether he agrees or not."

"he?"

"Miss Duo, you're very talkative. It's good enough to report to you. Do you have to kneel down and beg to lick the commander's feet?"

Wuhe Qinli's expression was impatient, which made the corner of Duo's mouth twitch.

After so long, she is still so poisonous.
