Varina calls the state of the brain running at high speed the "reasoning state."
After personal experience, he made an assessment based on his own state and felt that as long as his "reasoning state" lasted no more than 3 minutes at a time, there should be no problem.
Entering the "reasoning state" for the first time is a verification attempt.
Digging out the potion formula from his memory was only a brief taste, and Varina spent more time reflecting on this accident.
He wanted to find out the cause and prevent something like this from happening again.
After going through the entire incident, Varina found that if he could turn back time and want to avoid the tragedy from happening again...either he should not agree to help, or he should become stronger.
Refusing to help goes against his true nature and conflicts with his insistence on himself...
Therefore, the answer should be that he is not strong enough.
If he had directly killed the ring-bearded "hunter" with one blow, the series of events that followed probably wouldn't have happened...
The key point is to take control of the situation.
Varina looked back on his experiences during this period and found that he had been passively solving various troubles that came one after another. Until now, there are still hidden dangers that have been delayed and unresolved.
This was all the consequence of his inability to perfectly solve the problem during his pursuit of the extraordinary world.
As his abilities improve, the level of the people and things he comes into contact with also rises, and the troubles that follow are also getting bigger...
If he cannot get rid of this state as soon as possible, once his ability cannot keep up with the speed of the trouble, he may soon be directly crushed to death by the huge trouble that suddenly appears!
Varina once again felt the same sense of urgency that he had when he was pursuing the "Assassin" potion.
His feelings were even deeper than before!
Of course, this doesn't mean despair.
Referring to Klein's experience in the original work, he also thought of a similar solution——
Change identity.
Abandon the past completely and start over, from scratch.
For him, this method is the same idea as becoming stronger. Both require him to be promoted as soon as possible, become a "Witch" of Sequence 7, and gain a small qualitative change in ability.
This time, Varina didn't have the extra energy to be pretentious about the side effects of sex change.
In addition to reflecting on the incident, Varina also gained something else.
The symbols of the "Assassin" and "Hunter" paths are both "disasters", which is something he has known before.
But this time, he had a deeper understanding.
Judging from the names of the potions, even if they are both "disasters", "assassin" and "hunter" are different.
"Assassin" prefers secret guidance, and the direction of improvement is gradually approaching "natural disaster";
"Hunters" tend to be more positive in hosting, and the direction of promotion is also moving closer to "man-made disasters".
This is the full meaning of "disaster".
In short, the key to playing the "Assassin" path is to "hide behind the scenes", while the "Hunter" is just the opposite and needs to "stand in front of the stage."
Only then did Varina realize that he had been playing the role of "assassin" incompletely all the time.
As long as he is hiding his secret, he is fulfilling the role of "hiding behind the scenes", but is missing the "spreading disaster" part.
Therefore, even if he did not do many actual "assassinations", he still completed the role of "assassin".
From this point of view, he should be very efficient when playing the "instigator"; even because he knows part of the "future", it may be much easier for him to play the "witch"...
This is great news for Varina, who has just gained a sense of urgency and is eager to become stronger.
After recalling what he gained from entering the "reasoning state" for the first time, Varina took off his pocket watch and put it on the clothes beside the bed, preparing to rest.
In order to use his pocket watch one more time, he kept chanting "wake up in the middle of the night" before falling asleep.
…
Later in the night, perhaps because the cues before going to bed took effect, Varina really woke up.
He took out the "bottom line" pocket watch from the clothes beside the bed, turned the button, and entered the "inference state" for the second time, setting the time to 3 minutes.
Using "witch" as the key word, Warina searched in the treasure house of memory and soon discovered a large amount of information that could not be fully recalled at ordinary times.
In addition to the formula of the Sequence 7 "Witch" potion, the formula of the Sequence 6 "Happiness" potion is of course also one of the gains.
In addition, Varina himself remembers that when Klein was promoted to Sequence 4 Demigod in the original book, he got 22 "Hunter" cards from the "Card of Blasphemy".
In other words, as long as he finds a way to sneak into the future "Tarot Club", his path to promotion will be smooth, and he will no longer have to worry about finding the formula.
Well, the premise is that he first finds a way to be promoted to a Sequence 5 "painful" witch.
This shouldn't be difficult.
Just thinking about it, he could come up with several solutions other than the Witch Sect.
At this time, Varina suddenly realized that after a few days, after being promoted to the "Instigator" of Sequence 8, he would no longer need to stay in the Witch Cult.
If he defected while he was still a peripheral member, he probably wouldn't be taken seriously.
Moreover, this way, there is no need to get involved in the evil things done by the Witch Cult, and there is no need to spend more time to avoid things that touch one's "bottom line".
The most important thing is that if you defect now, there is only one difficulty -
Take back the handle he left in the hands of the witch Qili.
In other words, as long as he solves Qili, he can completely leave the rugged and narrow cave and enter the vast and boundless world.
The problem is how to solve it.
If it were other witches, killing them might be the easiest way.
But Qili was different. After experiencing so many things, Varina wanted to find a gentle way to deal with her.
This is definitely not an easy thing, but fortunately he still has a lot of time.
Before digesting the "Instigator" potion, he could maintain the status quo and find solutions in the process of getting along with Qili.
…
the next day.
When Varina woke up again, it was already bright.
Due to the heavy rain the day before, the haze was reduced a lot, and the sky outside the window looked a little clearer.
Varina tried to get up and found that his physical condition had recovered a lot. It seemed that in a day or two, not to mention a complete recovery, at least he could recover to a level that would not affect his daily activities.
It seems that the potion brewed by Qili is quite effective.
I just don’t know if her medicine has any other side effects besides the so-called “truth truth” for the current effect...
Not long after, Qili opened the door and came in.
She brought breakfast and newspapers.
Varina breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the news in the newspaper.
Xio and Forsi were not implicated.
In addition, his reward has been increased to 200 pounds, and his portrait has been made more detailed.
It can be said that considering the serial level, his wanted level has exceeded Qili.
But fortunately, the portrait still fails to accurately depict his image.
This was about safe for the time being, and he could finally feel completely at ease.
