147 Unexpected Occurrence (1/2)

Max felt like he was put in a heavy state of confusion. He didn't know why or how, but a part of his mind realized it wasn't normal, and he shouldn't let it overwhelm him.

A strong instinct kicked in as his eyes shook, and his mind, fighting off the invading force that was influencing his mind.

He was like a fish trapped in a net, trying its best to shake off the material that was restraining it. To an outsider's eyes, Max looked helpless with nothing left to do but to accept his fate.

In this case, Little Dou, who only recently became conscious of what was happening, saw him having a dazed expression.

However, before her heart could sink, everything around them stopped.

The unmoving world surrounded them was quite distinct. Every noise that was transmitted to their ears no matter how faint disappeared.

This made Little Dou sigh in relief. Not long after, Max got himself back, successfully breaking off the force which seemed to be influencing his mind.

All of this happened in a split second. Max hastily took a step back from the revolting face that was too close to him.

Blinking his eyes, Max looked at his frozen surroundings before turning to Little Dou, who was intently staring at the unidentified man.

Her eyes were without fear, only a glimmer of curiosity. Contrary to Max, who had a pair of watchful eyes as if thinking that it would suddenly move towards him even though he knew the time has just stopped.

”What is this thing coming out of his mouth? It almost touched me.”

”Could this be a skill?”

It was the only explanation for something like this to be possible. Ordinary people won't have some faint white figure flowing out of their mouths.

Max was lucky to evade it by using his Time Stop before it was able to touch him. Once it touches him, it would stick to his soul and slowly pull it out of him.

Even if he were to get away, he would still receive injuries to his soul that could take some time to heal, and he will also be racked with excruciating pain every once in a while.

[It looks like it!]

The form hasn't fully materialized, yet that was why Little Dou couldn't recognize what this blurry white figure was. She could only look at it with interest.

While they spoke, time was being wasted. Counting in his head, Max was aware that a few seconds had already passed.

He knew that they had to do something about this man.

From how his mind blurred, influenced by an unknown force, Max wasn't sure whether he would be under it once again when the time resumes, so they have to finish this before time runs out.

Max was only able to use his Time Stop when he suddenly felt a sense of crisis looming over him and instinctively activated it.

This was one of the life-saving exercises he spent time to get used to, and the instant Max experienced the overwhelming confusion that put his mind in chaos, he forcefully disregarded everything and willed the time to stop.

Fortunately, the confused state that hit him was extremely obvious. Max felt as if he was having a nightmare that put him into severe unrest while being aware that he was still standing here at school.

Such a weird experience. A skill that he couldn't explain and a potentially dangerous one. In truth, the force that put his mind into unrest wasn't a skill.
