Chapter 77: Possible solutions



Rain could easily be found during the day carrying his father, but he didn't have any other choice. He still had his potions left, so he could use them in case of emergency to escape. For now, the best solution to undo the brainwashing was to keep his father as far away as possible from the caster.

"... It seems that the area around is clear," Rain thought while looking around when he reached the end of the tunnel.

Rain made his father move from the tunnel while keeping him close to the ground but without leaving too many traces behind. Still, when he closed the entrance, he noticed something weird happening around. Rain heard the sound of a whistle nearby, but he was unable to find the source. When he looked behind, he saw a lot of people on the walls moving and looking in his direction. He had been found…

"Shit, of course, their lookouts would find me when it is this bright," Rain said and then clicked his tongue in annoyance before grabbing the potions and drinking them.

Rain jumped on the block of earth that kept his father sealed, and then he moved toward the grove south of his location. While he looked over his shoulder, he saw a fire tornado suddenly emerging from that side of the wall and then moving toward him at fearsome speeds. The heat mages were on the move, and their power was insane early in the morning.

He couldn't let that get any closer to him or his father.

"It can't be helped…" Rain thought and then drank another potion before he sped up.

Rain didn't know for how long the fire tornado could chase him, but he could tell that the enemies wouldn't be able to control them from so far away. However, soon the fire tornado dispersed when Rain saw some movements on the humans' side… he didn't know if they found him, but they decided to move once the magic people did the same,

"Well then… come and get it, assholes," Rain thought.

When he reached the grove, Rain felt that the place had a weird aura in it, so he could tell that the enemy's lookouts were around. Still, they didn't make any attempts to attack him… Rain made sure to keep his face hidden, but it was useless to hide his father's since the people in the city would eventually find out who he was. The question was: would they connect the dots?

He could only hope that they wouldn't.

"I should keep heading south for a while before heading East, just in case," Rain thought.

After twenty minutes, Rain's mana was finally empty, he still had two more potions, but he decided to use his physical strength for a while while carrying his father. Roan didn't show any signs of waking up, so Rain was a bit worried that he hit him too hard. The enemies didn't chase him, so it seemed that they were busy fighting the humans. He will be fine for a while, but not forever.

"I guess I will keep going like this until Dad wakes up," Rain thought.

In the end, Roan woke up at noon, and while Rain sighed in relief, he saw that his father's eyes were unfocused. Roan began to try to move his whole body to free himself, and when Rain looked at him, Roan didn't react at all.

"I guess that this confirms that the spell isn't something that was being fed overtime with that woman's mana, and being far away from her weakened it," Rain thought. "I guess my only option now is to check if the mana of the spell will disperse after a while. Well, sorry about this, Dad."

Without any other option, Rain hit Roan's left cheek again, and that put him to sleep. At the same time, Rain healed his wounds to avoid leaving lasting damage. Perhaps that wasn't actually preventing that, but Roan was a tough guy.

Healer's path

Level 1: Basic First Aid - Provides knowledge and training in basic first aid techniques, allowing the healer to administer immediate care for minor injuries and ailments.

Level 5: Healing Touch - You developed the ability to channel healing energy through touch, accelerating the natural healing process of wounds and alleviating pain. It restores one point of health per second at the cost of the same amount of mana per second. The level of the skill multiplies the effect.

Level 10: Herbal Medicine - Gains expertise in identifying and utilizing medicinal herbs and plants for healing purposes, effectively creating natural remedies for various ailments. The higher the level, the more knowledge you will have.

"I don't have any skill to dispel poison, so it is only natural that I wouldn't be able to dispel some brainwashing as well," Rain thought. "I won't be able to find one in the country, and I can't look for one in the big cities since Dad will recognize… I guess I will have to keep leveling up the Healer's Path and hope that I will get the skill eventually."

Rain was more realistic than someone that was too hopeful, so he felt troubled considering the situation. Still, maybe he could do something about it, considering the knowledge that he had from Earth. He didn't know much about a shady subject such as brainwashing, though.

"I need to rest for a bit," Rain thought when he noticed that the area ahead was more arid than green. "We covered a lot of ground, so we should be fine."
