Chapter 76 - 75. Takashi’s Breakdown
Chapter 75
Having removed the curse, I looked at the guy attentively, showing with all my appearance that I was listening. To be honest, although I am clearly stronger than him, I am afraid of him. Someone might think that there is something in a system that provides knowledge instead of such imbalanced ones as, for example, in the manhwa player, but I will say that knowledge is much more dangerous, yes, it may take less time to obtain personal power, but having knowledge, even without possessing superior strength, you can drive a superior enemy into a corner, simply by sealing him. Therefore, having learned about his system, I simply could not help but try to get some of the knowledge I needed, while trying not to spoil my relationship with him, although undoubtedly if he had shown even the slightest sign that, like Chinese cultivators, he was ready to cut out the entire family tree for a sidelong glance, or simply like time travelers who do not accept that someone is similar to them and at the same time better in something, then I would have cut off his head without hesitation, spitting on the benefit. After all, a madman with such power can cause a catastrophe worse than any zombie apocalypse and judging by how the guy suddenly became wary, he caught something similar in my gaze. After all, I am not a master of acting and often my face is too frank.
"I checked what was happening to me," Takashi began carefully.
- And? - I hurried. It's true that he probably should calm down, my thoughts only wound me up and I'm starting to be more hostile than he deserves at the moment and I even feel a little ashamed about it.
- Well, as you know, magic is very closely intertwined with emotions and intention. And it so happened that it is difficult for me to hold thoughts in my head, that is, if I do not concentrate, then most likely I will unconsciously begin to speak my thoughts out loud, as I did just now. - Takashi said, but it was clear that he clearly forced himself to limit himself to this sentence.
- Let's assume. But what do emotions and intentions have to do with it? Since I was feeding the magic circle, I suppose it was connected with me? But I didn't feel anger towards you and I certainly didn't want to harm you. - I was really a little confused by his words. After all, as I said, at that moment I had a rather positive opinion of him and even the fact that he was rude to me after losing a large amount of blood didn't spoil him so much at that moment that I subconsciously wanted to harm him.
- That's not quite true. My intentions and emotions played a role, - the time traveler said reluctantly.
- Um. I think I misunderstood something, - Saeko spoke up. - But doesn't that mean you wanted to hurt yourself?
- No. Emotions do not influence the ritual so directly, - Takashi answered evasively.
