After about half an hour, Ain opened the door to the exam room and waved at Kyle.

"How's that, doctor?"

"There is still a chance for the child to recover, but it will definitely need surgery. Then the girl named Wendy is already a confinement, and more importantly, the madness in her body is only relying on the last nerve to maintain her sanity, and if the madness in her body worsens, it is likely to cause damage to the brain. ”

Kyle nodded, he wasn't surprised by the result, it was better to conclude that he was saved.

"All three of them have to stay here, and it will take a long time to recover from neurosurgery."

"Is that what they mean?"

"This is my strong recommendation as a physician."

"Thank you, Dr. Ain, but I must respect their opinions."

Aine sneered, and wanted to say something, but after Ann on the side patted her on the shoulder, she remained silent.

Kyle and Wendy go to a secluded ward in the clinic, and the two children lose their initial excitement, after hearing that they are going to have surgery, they start to be scared subconsciously.

"Now, Kyle, do you have to have surgery? I don't want to have surgery. ”

"Lily! Don't embarrass Brother Kyle, he's managed to find a doctor who can treat us! ”

Woowoo woo –

Lily covers her eyes and cries, while Fino panics and looks at Wendy and Kyle for help. However, Wendy has more important things to say to Kyle, and she pulls Kyle directly to the window.

"Kyle, is that doctor reliable?"

Kyle retrieved a downloaded report from his phone, calling Ian a 'neurosurgical genius' and detailing how different the first half of her life was.

"If she's—if something goes wrong with the surgery."

"There was enough ammunition in the trunk of the van, enough ammunition to level this clinic."

Wendy looked at Lily who was crying and snorted, and Fino who was comforting her, and a burst of red light flashed in her eyes, making her clutch her head in annoyance, and the railing next to her was pinched into thin strips.

"So—will your shackles stop the madness from getting worse?"

Kyle nodded, then shook his head.

"My shackles can only lock the M value of the imprisoned, and I can't do anything about the worsening of the madness of the ordinary miser.

Wendy didn't dare to look at the two children anymore after hearing the affirmative answer. She didn't feel anything to be afraid of when facing the doom and the death battle, because those monsters were killed by her since she was a child, but when she encountered the current multiple-choice question of 'should she let her family risk surgery', she didn't even want to look at the options.

"Wendy, you have to face this! You are the only guardian of those two children, and I am not in a position to make a choice for them after only a few weeks of spending time with them. ”

Wendy looks at Kyle pleadingly, but Kyle only gives her two paths.

"Either you decide now whether or not to have them operated, or I command you to make a decision after the shackles are placed. Anyway – whether they're going to stay here for surgery or just go home with us is a matter for you to decide. Wendy, it's really hard, you've been in the Rust River for the past few weeks, and now you're going to have to make some irreparable choices. But I promise you - when those two little ones are recovered, we can go to the most fun places in Distown. ”

"You promise?"

"I promise, I will always be your companion."

Wendy gently pushes Kyle away and signs the surgery sheet Ann has taken. However, she only signed two copies, and her one was pushed back by her.

"Miss Wendy, your condition is worse than those two children, and I strongly recommend that you have surgery to reduce your mood swings, so that the madness does not worsen."

"He will protect me, he is my companion. So please go and save those two children. ”

"What about you! Did the man force you to do this? If yes—"

"Doctor! Kyle is my companion and he told me...... It's time for me to grow up. ”

She shouldn't have paid attention to those pus-drenching cakes, and stopped staring at the disgusting monster corpses at night, and she should have noticed now that the two children in need of help were no longer those dead servants who had nothing to do with them in the first place, let alone the responsibilities that had been imposed on them since birth.

Returning to Kyle's side, the two of them holding hands and looking at the two children.

"Let's get started. Kyle. ”

"No, you just didn't notice, the shackles are already on you."

"Really?"

"yes."

Wendy touched her face, and as she signed her name on the surgical sheet, red thorns slowly spread all over her body, pouring out from under the mask and enveloping her eyes.

The crimson shackles put a lock on her emotions, and the feeling of speaking with anger disappeared, leaving only the peace 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. Also, welcome to you, Wendy the Confiner, you are no longer alone as a Confiner. ”

After locking Wendy, the shackles were strengthened in an instant, just like the coronation of a new emperor, and the crown of thorns was no longer a quantitative accumulation, but a qualitative leap. The crown on the emperor's head is only one proof of power, and he should have more.

Crimson thorns began to bloom on the two of them, and the hand holding Wendy grew stronger, while the other hand, which had been empty, held a brand-new blood-colored sword.

"That's?"

"That is my power, the path you have carved out for me."

If the previous shackles only had basic functions - controlling the madness of the confinered, enhancing the abilities of the confiner, and detecting the location of the confiner, then the current shackles finally give Kyle the ability to act like the confiner, and this ability is power, which can be applied to both himself and others.

"I have to stay and take care of these two children."

"I know, and I'll have to go back and help you bring the rest of your family."

"It seems that going from the Syndicate to the Rusty River has become easier."

"That's right, but we always run into people who aren't so friendly, just like the gangsters just now."

Kyle held the girl in one hand and the spiral sword in the other, and looked out the window at the people staring at the place, and the evil aura in them even permeated the clinic.
