There are one hundred and ninety-eight special situations in school life, one hundred and ninety-six of which do not allow students to have a mental breakdown. Emotional stability is key to spellcasting. This is especially true at Warlock Academy. Children who do not have enough concentration will be eliminated in the so-called "summoning power" stage. Human beings are not born spellcasters. To pick out properties that are contrary to their nature, harsh selection is inevitable. A good human spellcaster should not have a nervous breakdown under any circumstances.
In the past seventeen years, Nese had never had a mental breakdown - he had always been a competent, excellent spellcaster, the closest he had been twice. The first time was when a pot of red-hot coal was accidentally poured on the graduation thesis that was about to be completed - no accident, nothing was left after the burning. It was the second time recently, and the second time was closer to a real collapse. "Recently" refers to the period of time from the time I met Yichaint to the present. "Recently" especially refers to the period during which he returned to the main material plane from the Chaos Hell.
That means including now.
Now, at this time, Nesse had no idea that the predicament he was facing was partly the result of someone with malicious intentions. The legal blockage surrounding Icha certainly exists. But it actually doesn't require them to figure it out at all.
As long as they can complete the challenge, the rules created by Nesis and Icha can use this breakthrough to solve the blockage of the rules - not only that, but the completion of the entire challenge can also bring other things.
These Nese are not yet known. Therefore, he still doesn't know that he should endure it with all his strength, strip away his emotions, rack his brains to analyze the information, and collect clues. Coincidentally, he's doing it now, but purely out of character. It just comes from a basic sense of self-preservation - to avoid mental breakdown as much as possible.

It's hard to avoid. At some point, Nese realized that someone was sitting on the empty chair in front of him. Someone who he had no idea why he was here. And this is a man who clearly enjoys his breakdown.
"Ufa Ufa." Nese looked at him for a while and said. Then he stared at the hooded figure covered in burns and repeated the name just out of surprise. Then he moved towards the gloomy figure - like a person who is afraid of heights being unconsciously sucked into the abyss. When passing by Yicha, Nese felt his shoulder being touched by a demon.
"It's your turn. Veled," Icha said. After saying that, he sat down. Nese didn't pay enough attention to understand it, but she still stopped where she was and was stunned for a while.
"Ufa Ufa." Without moving his eyes, he whispered to the dark figure - "Dark Figure". He felt that this name had become more appropriate than the real name of this radical. . He didn't know why Ufa Ufa appeared opposite him. I don't know what to say about this sudden meeting. Ufa Ufa was separated from him by a semicircular tabletop. For them, this distance is too close. It was a huge, sudden thrill. If two bulls were suddenly placed in such a close position, they would fight until each other's intestines would leak out.
If only Ufa Ufa could leave immediately or die. Given long enough, any human being will eventually leave, or die. This is pretty much what Nese wanted to say. Ufa Ufa should die. Ufa Ufa will always die, why not before or now?
The hooded figure slowly raised his head.
"You are here, Lightless One. Why are you here?"
Ufa Ufa's voice was like two branches rubbing together, and his sharp eyes shot over. His question didn't seem to expect an answer.
"You shouldn't be here." He answered himself in a judgmental tone without leaving any gaps. He seemed to have no doubt as to why he was in this strange situation. He had no reaction to the strange group of creatures around him, no action to the complex energy field and law field surrounding here, and he seemed to have no doubt about his own life or death. (When thinking of this, Nesse realized that he still didn’t know whether Ufa Ufa was alive or dead).
Ufa Ufa didn't ask any questions that fit the current scene - he appeared suddenly like a ghost who specialized in assassinating a certain sense of guilt, and only cared about the mysterious moral ascent and spiritual torture.
He stretched out two scarred fingers, touched the knot of the cloak, and untied it.
The cloak fell to the ground, and the high-level warlock was covered with scars, and his unrecognizable face was exposed. There are three intersecting extremely deep ravines above his head.
Three seconds. Nese gave him three seconds in her mind. If Ufa Ufa did not actively declare that he was alive within three seconds, he could only be a dead person. A person with such damage to his head could only be dead. Even Ufa Ufa is as strong as steel.
three……
"You should be with all of us. The Lightless. Enjoy your sins. Why not?"
two……
"Look here." Ufa Ufa pointed at his throat. There was a deep hole there - no scab on the hole. When he raised his hand, Nese saw his elbow. His elbow looked like it had been broken and then put back together - it looked like it was broken roughly from the wound, and the splicing technique wasn't very good either, with the thread and flesh turning outwards together.
one……
"Lightless One. Are you stupid? I'll show you." Ufa Ufa picked up the skin of the throat wound and stretched the deep hole horizontally.
zero. Got to zero. So he is indeed a dead man. So nothing to be afraid of. Now sitting across from me is a phantom of death, a hallucination...
"I'll fucking show you." Ufa Ufa punched Neese in the face. This punch was very strong, worthy of being stunned and worthy of doubting the conclusion just now. Nese subconsciously looked towards the dark hole. Ufa Ufa's body seemed to be burning with something. The round wound was deep, and traces of gray smoke came out of it.
"Not here!" Ufa Ufa shouted. He grabbed Nese by the collar and threw him to the ceiling - this was deduced by Nese's recollection of the last scene he saw in this scene.
In fact, he only felt that he was being lifted up.
Then he appeared in another place. The ground is covered with ashes and ruins. There is an ordinary-sized sun hanging in the sky; This is the main material plane.
The Ufa Ufa who had just pulled him disappeared. But Nese quickly found him. He fell face down in a large pool of blood, his limbs were broken, and a pillar protruding from the ground stabbed him through the abdomen.
It seems a little boring to realize a wish too quickly. Regardless, Nesse walked around Ufa Ufa and looked carefully. It was finally confirmed that he was indeed dead.
After waiting for a long time, he was finally indeed a dead man. Nese thought.
