I rely on myself

Chapter 42 Ikki in Adversity

After Lin Yuan checked his body, he found that he had fully recovered. He didn't want to lie in bed any longer, so he got up and changed out of his hospital gown.

After changing his clothes, Lin Yuan noticed the student handbook placed together with his clothes. He picked it up and saw that there was no damage on the surface.

"The student handbooks issued by the school are really sturdy. Even though the battle last night was so intense, there is not a single scratch on them. Should I say it's good luck or good quality?"

After pressing the power button, the student handbook started up and a large number of text messages and missed calls appeared. Lin Yuan had expected this.

"Although I know that Qianyin and the others will definitely call and text me if I disappear for a day for no reason, but isn't this too much?"

Lin Yuan opened the student handbook and the text message, and a passage of words appeared in front of him.

"…Is this what happened? I was careless. It's been so long that I forgot about it."

After reading the text message, Lin Yuan showed an unpleasant expression, quickly packed up his things and left the infirmary, while using the phone to contact Qianyin...

In the leisure courtyard of a park in Pojun Academy, Stella and others were waiting here.

Among them, Stella's expression was the most eye-catching. Ever since Ikki was taken away by the Ethics Committee, she has been like a volcano about to erupt.

She always frowned and looked very unhappy, and even her hair was like sparks, scattering phosphorescent spots.

Qianyin and others on the side kept comforting her, but it didn't have much effect.

At this time Lin Yuan came here according to the address.

"Although I expected this, you really look terrible, Stella."

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Stella, who was already furious, could no longer bear it.

"Of course. Now that Ikki has been taken away, and it was all my fault, how can I stay calm?"

Lin Yuan and the others were not surprised that Stella was so excited. After all, even they were very angry after learning the whole thing.

After venting, Stella became depressed. It can be seen that being kidnapped by Ikki was a very devastating thing for her.

Looking at Stella like this, Lin Yuan didn't know what to say. After all, they had just become a couple, but Ikki was framed because of Stella. This was indeed a big blow to a simple girl like Stella.

After discussing for a while, everyone couldn't find a good solution, so they just dispersed and waited for the chairman's negotiation.

Time flies, and ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, all media outlets described the affair between Ikki and Stella as a "scandal". All reports criticized Ikki as worthless and described Stella as a stupid woman who was deceived by a bad man.

These reports undoubtedly put Ikki in the spotlight.

"Ikki is so unlucky to have such a father."

Lin Yuan looked at the newspaper in his hand. Even as an outsider, he felt extremely disgusted by this kind of report. Lin Yuan couldn't imagine what Ikki, who was at the center of the incident, was feeling.

During this period, Lin Yuan and others did think of other ways, but no matter what channel they used, they could not get the opportunity to visit Ikki. It can be seen that this time the "Ethics Committee" and Kurogane Yan behind it are determined to deprive Ikki of his knighthood.

"Negotiations with the chairman are not going smoothly. According to the original storyline, although Ikki will get through this safely with Stella's support, if we just wait like this..."

Lin Yuan thought back to the time since he met Yihui. Although the time was short, Lin Yuan felt very much that he recognized Yihui as a friend.

"That's enough. There's nothing I can do here. If I can't fight head-on, I'll use some tricks."

Lin Yuan made a decision.

--------

Late at night, this is the International Magic Knights League Japan Branch skyscraper. On the tenth floor underground, Ikki Kurogane is imprisoned in one of the rooms.

Ikki has been imprisoned here for the past few days. He has been imprisoned for a long time, and has been asked to answer the same questions dozens of times. His opinions have never been accepted, and there has been a shortage of food and drinking water.

The damage to the body and the sudden high fever made matters worse.
Moreover, a battle had just ended today, so Ikki now felt that he couldn't even breathe normally.

Ikki concluded that he had pneumonia, and his condition was getting worse.

Normally, he would have to be sent to a doctor immediately, but the Ethics Committee did not allow him to do so.

'That's terrible.'

Ikki's consciousness is now very vague, and his will is not as strong as before.

'No one is expecting me anyway.'

The conversation with his father a few days ago made Ikki realize that he was just wishful thinking that he could understand his father.

This undoubtedly led to the gradual destruction of Ikki's precision machine (human being).

"That's enough. The Kurogane Ikki I know won't give in so easily, okay?"

Just as Ikki was still feeling depressed, sudden words were transmitted into his body.

Ikki looked around the simple room in confusion. Apart from a set of rickety and broken tables and chairs, he didn't see anything.

Just when Ikki was confused, the voice sounded from his body again.

"I say your reaction is too slow. You have forgotten it in such a short time. I am transmitting the sound directly to you through my spiritual outfit."

After hearing this, Ikki finally reacted and raised his arm, only to see a line that was almost invisible to the naked eye wrapped around his wrist.

"Lin, Lin Yuan, is it you?"

Although it was just a very short sentence, Ikki coughed several times before he could finish it.

"Don't talk yet. You are in very bad condition now. Wait a moment."

Ikki was very confused when he heard this, but out of trust in his friend, he did not object.

The line that was originally wrapped around Ikki's wrist began to extend continuously, wrapping around Ikki under his clothes, and soon formed something like inner armor.

'This is……'

Yihui still didn't understand the meaning of Lin Yuan's actions. Did Lin Yuan go to so much trouble just to add a set of inner armor to himself?

The next moment, Ikki felt that his lungs suddenly got better, and even the high fever disappeared, as if all the previous symptoms had never existed.

"I feel better..."

Ikki was able to speak smoothly, and his breathing no longer felt painful. Apart from the fact that his body was still tired, there was no doubt that Ikki's illness had suddenly improved.

If Lin Yuan had not become a demon and his abilities had not been enhanced again, Lin Yuan would not have been able to contain the concept of illness. On the contrary, the accumulated toxins would have been very easy to deal with.

"Lin Yuan, did you do this?"

"Of course, if it wasn't for helping you, I would have come all the way from Pojun Academy and used my spiritual outfit to avoid all surveillance to contact you. Am I just sitting here with nothing to do after eating?"

Yihui was very happy to hear Lin Yuan's unpleasant answer.

"Thank you, Lin Yuan."
