The blood in my head cools.
No, it’s not just my head; it feels like the blood in my entire body has chilled.
“What do you mean by that…?”
Did I hear wrong? No, it doesn’t seem like I heard wrong.
Madam Mi’s expression was proving that.
“You didn’t send me a letter?”
“No. I did send a letter.”
Madam Mi denies my words. More precisely, she corrects them.
“It’s true that I sent you a letter…. But when did you receive the letter?”
“I received it two days ago.”
“Two days…?”
Madam Mi’s eyes grow even larger.
“By any chance, in two days…. You came here from Sichuan?”
“Yes.”
“…”
“Right now, more than that….”
Grip.
Madam Mi suddenly grabs my shoulder. I have to flinch in surprise at the abrupt touch.
“Are you okay?”
“…Yes? Ah, yes.”
Moreover, even her tone has changed, so I have to be more surprised.
Madam Mi, as if realizing belatedly, lets out a vain cough and reorganizes her voice and tone again.
“…No matter how urgent, that’s too much. If you come such a long distance that quickly, your body will suffer.”
“…That much is fine.”
It wasn’t even that difficult, actually.
Not only has my energy increased, but controlling it has become easier.
The issue of the firepower exploding uncontrollably has been resolved.
