155 Chapter 147 - Deep Into His Memories.

"Let's start then. Ben, as usual, I trusted you for the support."

This is what Junior heard when he slowly losing his consciousness. When he regained his consciousness, he found himself in a hazy and blurry space. In the haze, he saw a man with his right eye injured, looking at him.

"This the most important recent memory fragment of Sky, you shouldn't explore more of it to prevent yourself from getting trapped and do not interact with anyone in the memory fragments." said Chris's voice from Junior's head.

"Just pass through it, pretend it wasn't there." said Chris.

Junior followed Chris's instructions and the scene changed immediately to a random scene that happened in school.

"The memory piece you are looking for is a forgotten piece, so it is hidden deep in all of his memories, follow my instructions clearly and you will be able to reach there safely." said Chris.

And so, Junior followed Chris's guides and instructions, he passed through all the different scenes and some of it are totally blurry, he can't even see what is it about, while some of it are so disturbing that, he does not dare to open his eyes and passed through with his eyes closed, and as Chris instructed he just passed through all those memory's scenes without staying in it more than three seconds.

After a few minutes of exploring, Junior finally reached the deep and mysterious parts of Sky's memories which shows a totally hazy environment, Junior can't see anything out of it.

"Hold on for a while, I will clear the path for you, you just need to walk through straight away, and don't stop no matter what." said Chris.

Then the area around Junior starts glowing and the haze slowly disappeared as he continued to proceed, after a while, he eventually saw a cell room with a lady inside.

"Mother..." said Junior as soon as he saw that lady...

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Outside of Sky's memory. The device connected to Junior shows a sudden increase in heartbeats, while the brainwave starts getting unstable. Ben looking at Chris with a worried look, as he spotted some tensed feeling from Chris.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Back to memory fragments.

"Junior, that is not your mother, she is only a memory fragment of Sky. Now get out of here immediately." said Chris trying to draw Junior's attention away from that lady.

However Junior doesn't seem to be reacting to Chris's words, he had slowly blended into that memory's fragment.

"Mother, I finally get to see you again... I miss you so much. I so regret that I did not spend much time with you when you are still with us, but now I'll never leave you anymore..." said Junior who had totally forgotten about what he is supposed to do and Chris's warning.

Junior did not hear Chris, he destroyed the cell room door and walked towards the lady, as he gets really near to that lady, he gets dragged away from her forcibly by an unseen force...

-----------------------------------------------------------

Secret base, infirmary. Chris suddenly opened his eyes and retracted his magic, as he retracted his magic, he coughed blood as the impact of the suddenly retracted magic.

"Chris chan!"

"Chris!" Maria and Ben are shocked as they saw Chris coughing blood.

"Don't mind about me... Check on those two first..." said Chris with a slightly heavy breath.

And so, Ben did a body check on Sky and Junior who are still in half gazing state, while Maria cleaned the blood on Chris's lips.

"I have detected some disturbances and instabilities in their mind, but it's not a big deal as it was stopped in time thus minimize the potential damage." said Ben, then he proceeds to check on Chris while applying some healing magic but doesn't help much due to Chris 'immunity' towards healing magic.

"Actually this is preventable if I act more cautiously. It's my fault... Luckily they are alright." said Chris.

"No, it's an accident, don't blame yourself for it. And if you didn't risk yourself to stop it, the damage can be deadly for both of them." said Ben while injecting some purplish substance into Chris's right arm.

--------------------------------------------------------------

An hour later, they had recovered from the impact of that memory magic of Chris and are now having their lunch in the cafeteria, including Bob.

"Where's Seito and the other three? I haven't seen them since the morning." Sky asked as he noticed Seito, Itsuki, Yuki, and Ai are absent for lunch.

"Well, they were out early in the morning, they said they are going to get some quest from the quest center." said Jason while serving them with the food he prepared.

"Ah... Those youngsters had grown more guts compared to the first day we reached here." said Chris, like an old man... Haha.

"Hey Chris, you look a bit pale, are you sure you don't want to rest yourself more?" Sky asked.

"If you want to take my portion of lunch, just said it, don't turn a big round." said Chris.

"Aww~ Darling ~ You can always have mine, you cannot make Chris chan skip his meal." said Maria with a disapproving look.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, on a remote street, there is a shady building that located at the darkest corner of the street... Seito and the others are in there.

"Is this the place mentioned in the quest, looks a bit creepy." said Seito.

"Well, we are in a rumored haunted house after all..." said Itsuki while observing the outside environment with a telescope.

"But why are we hiding here? We are supposed to be investigating some drug smuggling activities in here." said Seito.

"You are the one that wants me to find a well-hidden area where people would not notice us, even if they noticed, they would never thought someone is actually watching at their movements, so this is the most suitable place." said Itsuki.

"So we are basically pretending to be a ghost." said Seito.

"Mhmm."

"Seriously, why I feel like you act more and more like Chris?" Seito asked.

"Did I?" Obviously, Itsuki denied it.

*Something out of the story

Sky: "Dear readers."

Chris: "Hmm?"

Sky: "As what Chris said. Right now, this story is free on the authorized platform, so please read it from authorized platforms as mental support for the writer."

Chris: "Mhm... There are two authorized platforms. One is webnovel.com. And another one is that messy and half-dead Weebly site that she uses for draft and backup... But not recommended."

Sky: "Ah... Haha. Yes, as Chris said."

Chris: "But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.

Sky : "By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it's cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing."
