Wizard Earl

Chapter 704 Connor's Promise

"However, if the treatment fails, I can only guarantee she won't die... Connor, think it over carefully. You have five minutes to consider!" Varga gave Connor the choice and explained to him very seriously:

Faced with the two options offered by Varga, Connor was immediately caught in a dilemma. After pondering for more than ten seconds, Connor asked Varga, "Varga, what are your chances of succeeding with the second method?"

"The second method, I've only tested on mice and had some success with it, but I haven't tried it on wizards yet, so I think I only have a 30% chance of success!" Upon hearing Connor's question, the cautious Varga didn't immediately give an answer, but thought for a few seconds before slowly saying:

Upon hearing that Varga only had a 30% chance of success, Connor's heart sank. If they chose conservative treatment, according to Varga's description, while it would ensure Margaret's survival, the aftereffects would be significant, greatly reducing her chances of becoming a full-fledged wizard... However, this method could restore Margaret's health, and even though the chances of her becoming a full-fledged wizard were slim, as long as she recovered, there was always a possibility!

As for choosing the radical treatment option, although Varga stated it explicitly, Connor understood the implication: Margaret might become a living dead—having vital signs and still alive, but without consciousness, forever trapped in a coma…

The thought that Margaret had a 70% chance of becoming a living dead, a fate worse than death, pained Connor deeply. He made up his mind to choose conservative treatment for Margaret. However, just as Connor was about to open his mouth to tell Varga his choice, his gaze unconsciously fell on Margaret. As if he had thought of something, Connor's eyes became complicated.

"You have ten seconds left, Connor. You need to make a choice quickly. If you delay any longer, I can't rule out the possibility that her condition will deteriorate!" Seeing that the five minutes were almost up and Connor still hadn't made a decision, Varga couldn't help but urge him:

Connor took another deep look at the still unconscious Margaret, shook his head, and then said to Varga, "The second option!"

Seeing that Connor had chosen the second option, a strange light flashed in Varga's eyes, and she asked Connor for confirmation, "Connor, are you sure?"

"I'm sure! I believe in your medical skills, Varga! If you successfully save him this time, Varga, I won't owe her anything anymore, and I can cut ties with her!" Looking at Varga, Connor solemnly promised.

Upon hearing Connor's promise, Varga remained silent, only giving Connor a deep look before taking out a milky-white crystal ball from her spatial ring and placing it on Margaret's lower abdomen. With a solemn expression, she cast a spell on the crystal ball and began to chant an incantation in a low voice.

"Artur... Paulo... Kandal... Inlitt..."

Under the combined effect of the incantation and the spell, the milky-white crystal ball that Varga had placed on Margaret's lower abdomen suddenly emitted a milky-white light, gradually enveloping Margaret's entire body.

Seeing the appearance of the milky white light, Connor's expression was very complicated. The reason he changed his mind at the last minute and chose the second option was because he felt that he could not be so selfish as to decide Margaret's fate according to his own preferences. Having been together for so long, Connor was very familiar with Margaret's competitive personality. Like himself, she absolutely could not tolerate not becoming a formal wizard!

If Margaret were awake at this moment, given the two options Varga offered, Connor knew that Margaret would choose the second option without hesitation. So in the end, Connor chose to respect Margaret's own opinion. If things really went wrong and they failed in the end, Connor was determined that as long as he lived in this world, he would try his best to find a way to restore Margaret to normal!

To ensure that Varga, that jealous little devil, would truly do her best to save Margaret, Connor went so far as to make a promise. Connor believed that with his promise, Varga wouldn't have any other thoughts. Now, Connor felt he had done everything he could; the rest was up to Varga's medical skills and Margaret's own fate…

Under Connor's watchful eye, the milky-white crystal ball that Varga had taken out was quite effective. Under its milky-white light, the pain on Margaret's face gradually subsided, and some of her skin began to twitch, indicating that the bones that Varga had broken in the explosion were beginning to heal.

A dozen minutes later, a milky white light appeared, gradually setting Margaret's broken bones back together. While taking the opportunity, Varga also took out a potion from her spatial ring and drank it to restore her depleted mana. Then she instructed Connor.

"Connor, I need to help her guide and control the uncontrolled magic within her body back to normal. If all goes well, it will take me half an hour to complete. After that, I will try to address her psychological trauma, which is the most difficult step and the root cause of this woman's loss of consciousness. It will be extremely challenging. Connor, mental strength is your forte, so I need your help!"

Upon hearing Varga's instructions, Connor's expression immediately turned serious, and he nodded earnestly, saying, "Understood!"

Having received Connor's affirmative reply, Margaret refocused her attention on the bed and continued chanting the incantation: "De Laurentiis... Moutinho... Carol!"

After Varga finished chanting the incantation, the energy fluctuations of the milky-white crystal ball placed on Margaret's lower abdomen immediately changed, and the light it emitted changed from the initial milky white to a vibrant, lively green.

As the bright green light appeared, Margaret underwent another change. Connor, standing to the side, could clearly feel that the previously uncontrollable magic within Margaret's body began to gradually circulate along the correct path under Varga's guidance.
