Volume 1 The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemies of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 145 Coma
"Uh...... I'm sorry, Professor, I'm leaving. Seeing Professor Frost staring at him with a gloomy expression, Alan quickly replied and walked out of the room.
In fact, he didn't want to stay in this room for long, everything here was so strange that he couldn't figure out the situation at all.
Leaving aside how Professor Frost had bypassed his gaze and entered this room, the mere fact that she had suddenly disappeared from the room was bizarre enough...... She's a professor of elemental magic, and can't use space-time magic.
And that strange lamp...... It didn't seem to be used for lighting, as there were two very bright magic lamps on either side of the room, and there was plenty of light in the room.
And the behavior of the twin-tailed cat is also quite incomprehensible...... The mood changes before and after it are just too fast. First she bit him, then she suddenly became very close to him, and then, as if contradictory, pulled him out and stopped him from leaving......
Oh...... And the painting on the wall is also very weird, that eye is very similar to the pattern on the forbidden book, not to mention, it seems to move......
In short, everything in this room made Alan feel hairy......
It's just that what makes him a little regretful and unwilling is that he didn't ask anything from Professor Frost.
"Alyssa's Illness...... Is there still a chance to be cured?" Alan felt more and more worried.
By the time Eren returned to his room, Rare had already returned, and he was at a loss after hearing that Eren had made no progress today.
For the next few days, Alan and Riel called Alyssa out to chat every day except for class. The two of them kept reminiscing to Alyssa about what had happened together at Beya, though it was mostly Alan who was helping her solve her problems.
But for them, it doesn't matter what they remember now, what matters is that they can help Alyssa recover her lost memories, even if it slows her down. So no matter how big or small, the two of them almost counted all the things they had experienced together in the past three years.
Professor Fran went to Professor Staebone and asked Alyssa to move out of her room and live with her in the faculty dormitory, so that she could be taken care of and avoid any further accidents. At the same time, she would talk to Alyssa about her grandmother and mother when she was fine, so as to help her remember the past.
Professor Watson examines Alyssa every day, and since he didn't have any previous cases to refer to, he had to come up with all the possible causes of the situation, try different treatments, and see if she showed signs of improvement.
But it was all to no avail.
Alyssa is still the same, and she doesn't know anyone except Ellen.
It's been two days since October in the blink of an eye, and Alyssa's condition has not improved, but has begun to become estranged from Alan.
At first she just ignored what other people said, but now she doesn't answer much even when Alan talks to her, and even eating and sleeping are starting to lose her regularity, only when she is hungry to the limit she wants to eat, and sleep is sometimes only two hours a day, sometimes she sleeps all day.
Alan and the others were anxious, but there was nothing they could do.
After nearly a week, not only did she become emaciated, but Alyssa's whole body looked extremely haggard.
There was only a slit left in her eyes, and it was impossible to tell if they were open until she looked closely. She also staggered when she walked, as if a gust of wind could blow her down, and as soon as she went out, Alan had to hold her all the time.
Originally, Professor Fran had helped Alyssa take a leave of absence, not to mention going to class in her state, and even taking care of her daily life was a problem. However, her obsession with class is inexplicably deep, and on Tuesday and Friday she will keep muttering "Professor Frost" and "class", Professor Fran wants to stop her, but she doesn't pay attention to it, as long as she is not allowed to go out, she will keep asking for it. In the end, Professor Fran relented and repeatedly instructed Alan to take care of her on the way to class and back.
But it wasn't enough to just go to class, as soon as the class ended, Alyssa would habitually get up and go straight to Professor Frost's office, as if something was calling to her.
It seemed that she could no longer hear what Eren was saying, or rather, she could no longer hear all the voices of the entire outside world, and it seemed that what she would do at what time was completely instinctive.
Alan was helpless, it was impossible to stop her, and what he said had no effect, so he had to rely on her wishes, he looked at Alyssa like this, and said in his heart that as long as there were no accidents, it was already the greatest luck.
He and Riel spend every day with her, eating, and attending classes, and then sit on the steps and wait for Alyssa to come out of the make-up class and take her back to Professor Fran.
About ten days passed, and on October 12th, the situation finally took a new turn.
It's just that this change is another heavy blow to Alan and Riel - Alyssa falls into a coma.
It was Friday, and after taking the wind elemental magic class in the afternoon, Alyssa uncharacteristically did not get up immediately and went out, but kept lying on the table, as if she was asleep.
"Are you alright?" asked Allen, puzzled. Based on what he knew about Alyssa recently, she would definitely go to Room 601 to find Professor Frost as soon as possible.
But Alyssa lay on the table and didn't move.
"Hey, wake up! Wake up!" a sense of foreboding rose in Allen's heart, and he quickly shook her arm.
"Hey, hey!" yelled as Riel snapped the table.
But Alyssa still didn't react at all.
At this time, Professor Fran also noticed Alyssa's strange appearance and walked over quickly.
"What's wrong with her?" asked Professor Fran.
"I don't know...... Allen was sweating on his forehead, and he looked panicked: "I felt that something was wrong with her when I was in class...... Normally, she sits in a straight position even if her eyes don't seem to be fully open, but today I don't know when she was lying on the table, and until now......"
Professor Fran immediately touched Alyssa's forehead, and found that it was unusually cold, and put his finger under her nose to test it for a moment, and was surprised, because her snort was very weak.
"You two carry her to Dr. Watson!" said Professor Fran quickly.
Only then did Alan realize that Alyssa had fainted......
But before Alan could make a move, Rare picked up Alyssa on his back and trotted all the way downstairs.
Alan was not far behind.
Although Riel was physically strong and had no difficulty carrying Alyssa, she was taken aback when she carried Alyssa on her back - it was the weight of a child!
Luckily, most of the people were heading towards the cafeteria, so it wasn't crowded, and the two of them quickly arrived at Professor Watson's place.
Professor Watson was also shocked when he saw Alyssa's state, and the problem of amnesia had not been solved, and he began to fall into a coma again.
After a brief diagnosis, Professor Watson announced: "She may be going to live here for the next while......"
"What's wrong with her?" asked Alan, anxiously.
"She's very weak now...... I have never seen such a frail patient...... "Professor Watson frowned, "and from what you have described, it may be preliminarily concluded that the coma is caused by too little diet and lack of sleep...... But I'll have to take a closer look at any of the other causes......
"Where is there time for you to take your time!" Rare was a little out of control when he heard this, and even began to blame Professor Watson a little, "Look at her appearance! I should have sent her directly to the hospital in the city!"
"Don't do that, calm down!" Alan said, grabbing his wrist.
Riel has also been irritated by Alyssa's affairs for a while, and his temper is getting worse and worse, especially on the way to carry Alyssa here, he even feels that Alyssa's life is short, but he can't say it.
"I can understand your feelings...... Although Riel's words were a little hurtful, Professor Watson was not angry, "I haven't stopped looking for the cause of the disease for a day lately, and even the opportunity to use the communication light to report to my family once a week is used to consult with my friends who know about possible causes......"
Rare finally calmed down a little when he heard Professor Watson say this.
This old man has indeed lost a lot of weight recently, and it is not easy to do his best to do this at such an old age.
"I'm sorry......" Rare also realized his rude just now, and quickly apologized.
Professor Watson waved his hand and motioned for him not to mention it again.
"But......" Professor Watson sighed, "I regret that I don't want to say it, but I have to say it...... Not only me, but almost everyone who heard about this symptom had no clue...... Friends I know who work at the medical department in Krivari City have also said that they have never heard of the disease......"
After Professor Watson said this, the room fell silent.
"That'...... What to do next......" Alan asked in a whisper after a long time.
I saw Professor Watson go back and forth in the room several times before he said, "Although the cause has not been found for the time being, I can still guarantee her safety...... I think that she didn't get enough rest, couldn't eat and sleep on time because of her own reasons, and now that she is unconscious, her situation may be better because of this......"
When Riel heard this, he finally seemed to see hope, and immediately asked, "Then what do you mean......"
"Hmm......" Professor Watson nodded, "the immediate priority is to get her body in good condition...... If she recovers well, I think she will have some new opportunities when she wakes up......"
