The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death Chapter 203

PHA – Chapter 203

The black carapace covered only Elodie's mother's limbs and chest area. Everything below the chest area remained unaffected. So, the woman was still wearing her panties. Knowing this, Alice swiftly and skillfully liberated the woman of her panties.

It couldn't be helped. Alice hadn't expected to encounter such an urgent situation. Not only did this foreign power prevent her from severing her connection with it, but it also threatened to drain her mana dry in a matter of seconds.

As soon as Alice gripped Elodie's mother's panties in her right hand, a large volume of mana flooded her body. At the same time, she also regained control over her mana.

However, simply breaking free from the suction power wasn't enough. The foreign power remained within Elodie's mother's body. If Alice wanted to revert the changes done to Elodie's mother's cells, she'd inevitably have to clash against this foreign power. Otherwise, this strange suction power would continuously absorb her mana and interfere with her work.

Although I don't know what you are, unfortunately for you, I know a spell that can uncover your operating principles!

Alice gritted her teeth as she focused on manipulating her mana. Even with the massive mana pool she currently possessed, the strange suction power within Elodie's mother was still capable of influencing her mana. This meant that this suction power should be a product of a taboo-level spell. However, none of the taboos she had read about thus far possessed such an effect.

Alice wasn't particularly surprised by this situation, though. The person who had cursed Elodie's mother should be a past Demon King. The other party should have existed hundreds or thousands of years ago. Because things such as the internet and computers had yet to be invented during that period, many taboos developed were never properly stored and passed down to future generations.

However, Alice didn't have to know about the taboo her opponent had used. This was because she possessed a taboo capable of analyzing all magic.

Psychokinesis Transcendence!

Immediately, Alice created countless psychokinetic threads using her mana and sent these threads into Elodie's mother's body. Then, she willed these threads to penetrate deep into the strange suction power and analyze it. Although the suction power had devoured some of her mana during the analysis process, she still managed to gain a certain degree of understanding of the spell she was going up against.

In general, the suction power originated from a ball of pitch-black mana. Meanwhile, this ball of mana was left within Elodie's mother's body for the specific purpose of preventing others from deciphering the Sunset Bug Erosion and reversing its effects.

If someone were to inject mana into Elodie's mother's body to inspect her cells and revert them to their original form, the action would immediately trigger the taboo stored within the ball of mana. Meanwhile, once triggered, the stored taboo would create a vortex that devoured all foreign mana inside Elodie's mother's body. If the person inspecting Elodie's mother wasn't strong enough, the vortex would drag out even their soul, devour it, and convert it into nourishment for the taboo.

The taboo used here didn't belong to any of the main attributes, so it should be special magic similar to Grant's gravity magic. Upon making this discovery, Alice couldn't help but wonder what kind of hatred the caster bore toward Elodie's mother to go to such great lengths to torment her and prevent anyone from saving her.

But even though this spell has the abilities of a taboo, its strength isn't up to standard, Alice thought to herself. She couldn't help but chuckle when she realized the weakness of this taboo.

There was nothing wrong with the taboo itself. Alice was certain that if she were to cast this taboo while wielding a pair of panties or the Hero's Sword, even existences on the level of the demons' Four Heavenly Kings and Catherine would have their mana drained and their souls damaged.

The problem was that the caster of this taboo wasn't casting it in person. Instead, this person had set up a trigger mechanism within Elodie's mother's body using a fixed amount of mana. Meanwhile, this mana was nowhere near enough to let the taboo operate at its full potential.

This situation was similar to when Aird had used the simplified version of the War God's Lock. Although Aird's simplified version had the qualities and function of the complete version, it lacked the complete version's strength. Hence, it was much easier to deal with than the complete version.

In this situation, the simplest way to counter the taboo hidden within Elodie's mother was to flood it with mana and overload it. Once the taboo was overloaded, it would naturally collapse.

However, Alice couldn't use such a brute force solution. She had no idea how much mana she needed to overload the vortex, and she still needed to conserve some mana to treat Elodie's mother.

In addition, even if the spell Alice was dealing with here wasn't a complete taboo, it was still a powerful spell. The massive amount of mana it would release when it collapsed wasn't something the average person could endure, and Elodie's mother might suffer catastrophic internal damage.

Hence, Alice had no choice but to rely on Psychokinesis Transcendence to penetrate the vortex and destroy the vortex's structure from within, rendering it useless.

Taboos were like complex machinery. They might be able to function at varying levels of power, but most of their processes were intricately tied to each other. Hence, after Alice randomly destroyed a few links, the mana vortex quickly stalled and simply remained inside Elodie's mother's body without doing anything.

It would also be a simple task to get rid of the foreign mana that remained in Elodie's mother. Once Elodie's mother recovered her health, her body would automatically absorb this foreign mana and use it as nutrition for her body. The only problem was that the amount of foreign mana inside Elodie's mother was massive. Elodie's mother would probably experience overnutrition for a certain period.

Similar to how a malnourished person would suffer from protein poisoning from overeating, the massive amount of mana would probably cause Elodie's mother to feel uncomfortable for some time. However, this couldn't be helped since Alice had no other way to remove this foreign mana from Elodie's mother.

That should do it.

After carefully destroying the mana vortex and ensuring that it could no longer continue operating, Alice sighed in relief. Then, she resumed reversing the Sunset Bug Erosion's effects with her remaining mana.

Meanwhile, Rosa wore a stunned expression on her face as she looked at Alice. No obvious changes had occurred on the surface just now, and the room remained as calm as always. However, as a veteran thief, Rosa had very powerful senses.

When Alice was clashing with the foreign mana inside Elodie's mother, Rosa could vividly tell that a pure battle of mana was taking place in a place she couldn't see just now. Meanwhile, by the looks of it, Alice had emerged victorious.

As evidence of Alice's victory, the clash of mana had calmed down, and the black carapace covering Elodie's mother had begun showing signs of softening.
