After about half an hour, Ain opened the door of the diagnosis room and waved to Kyle.
"How about it, doctor."
"There is still a chance to save the child, but it will definitely require surgery. Then the girl named Wendy is already an incarcerated person, and more importantly, the madness in her body is only maintained by the last section of nerves. If the madness in her body continues to worsen, it may cause damage to her brain."
Kyle nodded. He was not surprised by this result. Rather, it was good to conclude that there was still hope.
"All three of them have to live here. Neurosurgery will require a long recovery."
"Is this what they meant?"
"This is my strong recommendation as a physician."
"Thank you, Dr. Ain, but I must respect their opinions."
Ain sneered and originally wanted to say something, but after An on the side patted her shoulder, she remained silent.
Kyle and Wendy went to a secluded ward in the clinic together. The two children were not as excited as they were at the beginning. After all, they began to be subconsciously afraid after hearing that they were going to have surgery.
"Hey, Kyle, do I have to have surgery? I don't want to have surgery."
"Lily! Don't embarrass brother Kyle. He finally found a doctor who can treat our disease!"
Wuwuwu——
Lily covered her eyes and cried, while Fino panicked and looked at Wendy and Kyle with pleading eyes. But Wendy had more important things to talk to Kyle, so she directly pulled Kyle to the window.
"Kyle, is that doctor reliable?"
Kyle found a downloaded report on his phone, which called Aine a "neurosurgical genius" and detailed how unique the first half of her life was.
"If she—if something goes wrong with the operation."
"There was enough ammunition in the trunk of the van to level this clinic."
Wendy looked at Lily, who was crying, and Fino, who was comforting her. A burst of red light flashed across her eyes, making her scratch her head irritably, and she pinched the railing next to her into thin strips.
"So - can your shackles prevent Kuang He from getting worse?"
Kyle nodded, then shook his head.
"My shackles can only lock the M value of the imprisoned. I am powerless to prevent the worsening of the madness of ordinary madness."
After hearing the affirmative answer, Wendy no longer dared to look at the two children. She didn't feel like there was anything to be afraid of when facing evil species and death battles, because she had been killing those monsters since she was a child, but now she faced the choice of "should I let my family risk the surgery?" When asked, she didn't even want to look at the options.
"Wendy, you must face this matter squarely! You are the only guardian of those two children. I have only been with them for a few weeks and I am not qualified to make choices for them."
Wendy looked at Kyle pleadingly, but at this time Kyle only gave her two ways.
"Either you decide now whether to let them undergo surgery, or I order you to make a decision after putting them in shackles. No matter what - whether they want to stay here for surgery, or go home with us directly, this multiple-choice question is just It's up to you. It's going to be hard, Wendy. Just a few weeks ago you were mourning your death in Rust River, and now you have to make some irreversible choices. But I promise you - wait until then. After the two little guys recover, we can go to the most fun places in Dis City.”
"you promise?"
"I promise, I will always be your companion."
Wendy pushed Kyle away gently and signed her name on the surgical drape that An brought over. But she only signed two copies, and hers was pushed back.
"Miss Wendy, your situation is worse than those two children. I strongly recommend that you undergo surgery to reduce your mood swings. Only in this way can the madness no longer worsen."
"He will protect me. He is my companion. So please go save those two children."
"What about you! Did that man force you to do this? If so-"
"Doctor! Kyle is my companion and he told me...it was time for me to grow up."
She should no longer pay attention to those oozing little cakes, stop staring at those disgusting monster corpses at night, and what she should pay attention to now is the two children in need of help, no longer those dead slaves who have nothing to do with them. , not to mention the responsibilities that have been imposed on them since birth.
Returning to Kyle's side again, the two held hands and looked at the two children.
"Let's do it. Kyle."
"No, you just didn't notice that the shackles are already on your body."
"Yeah?"
"yes."
Wendy touched her face. Just as she signed her name on the surgical drape, red thorns slowly covered her body. At this time, they surged out from under the mask and surrounded her eyes. .
The crimson shackles put a lock on her emotions. The feeling of speaking with suppressed anger disappeared, leaving only the calmness of being with her family.
"I wish I wasn't as crazy as I used to be."
"In the past, you just needed to vent, not crazy. And welcome to you, Wendy the Incarcerated. When you are the Incarcerated, you are no longer alone."
After locking Wendy, the shackles were strengthened in an instant, just like the coronation of a new emperor. The crown of thorns was no longer a quantitative accumulation, but a qualitative leap. The crown on the emperor's head is only one of the proofs of power, and he should have more proofs.
Red thorns gradually bloomed on the two people's bodies, and the hand holding Wendy gradually became stronger, while the other hand that was originally empty - now held a brand new blood-colored sword.
"That is?"
"That is my power, the path you have opened for me."
If the previous shackles only had basic functions - controlling the incarcerated person's madness, enhancing the incarcerated person's abilities, and detecting the incarcerated person's location, then the current shackles finally gave Kyle the same ability as the incarcerated person, and this Ability is power, which can act on oneself and others.
"I have to stay and take care of these two children."
"I know, and I have to go back and help you bring the rest of your family here."
"It seems that going from Syndicate to Rusty River has become easier."
"Yes, but we always meet some not-so-friendly people, just like the gang just now."
Kyle held the girl in one hand and the spiral sword in the other, looking at the people staring out the window. The sinful aura on their bodies even penetrated into the clinic.
