Kapitel 118: Same
Five days, this was all the time that Beatrice had left in the Lyon Kingdom
Although Beatrice did her best, and even surpassed herself in figuring out a method to insert fake memories into people, this still took quite a bit of time, even for someone of Beatrice's talent.
Four days to be more exact.
Although this speed was rather ridiculously fast, this came at a rather steep price, as Beatrice had to be far less careful than usual while experimenting, to keep up her speed.
Because of this, Beatrice had managed to nearly completely run out of bandits to experiment on, leaving only their leader, Max, as well as a few other bandits left.
Thankfully, though, it seemed as though toying with that Jackson guy had somewhat relieved Beatrice's exhaustion.
"I should do that again sometime," thought Beatrice as she began making her way back to the old Agnes estate.
Sadly though, as Beatrice did so, that exhaustion, which had seemingly disappeared, slowly but surely returned.
'I need to get at least three hours of sleep,' thought Beatrice as entered the estate and made her way to a bedroom.
...
Four hours later,
The moment Beatrice opened her eyes, she suddenly got up from the bed.
'It seems I was really quite tired,' thought Beatrice as she put on her robe.
Although it was only one hour, it was nearly unheard of for Beatrice to oversleep, especially since she had become a mage apprentice.
A few moments after Beatrice put on her robe, she made her way out of the old bedroom and into the basement of the estate.
Some time ago, after she had first begun working with memories, a rather simple experiment, but one with rather far-reaching implications, had appeared in Beatrice's mind.
And right now, Beatrice wanted to attempt it.
...
'All the subject's memories have been removed from his mind,' thought Beatrice as she wrote down her thoughts into the information cube.
Garry, this was the original name of the subject, but now, that name was gone, replaced with nothing.
Looking at the man lying motionlessly on the table, Beatrice couldn't help but faintly smile.
'Although all of his cognitive functions have been preserved, it seems as though he has forgotten how to move his body,' thought Beatrice as she stared at the man, who did not move even though he had not been controlled or restrained.
The fact that someone without memories could not move, as they would not know how, was not expected by Beatrice, causing her to feel somewhat surprised.
"Alright then, I can begin inserting the new memories," thought Beatrice as she approached the man.
...
Looking at the two men, who were lying in front of one another, unconsciously, Beatrice faintly smiled.
One of the two was, of course, Beatrice's new experiment, while the other was the leader of the Steel Rats, Max.
A few moments after that, the two slowly but surely began waking up.
Looking at the burly man full of power, who was standing lying there motionlessly in front of him, 'Max' couldn't help but be shocked.
"Who are you, why do you look exactly like me!?" asked 'Max', shouting as he pointed his arm towards the person in front of him.
Sadly though, this action of pointing his arm, shocked 'Max', who felt as though his body was extremely weak, causing him to turn his attention to it.
Looking at his body, which although impressive, was a far cry from his usual body,'Max' felt as though the world was spinning.
By now, though, the other 'Max' had also woken up, and was staring at 'Max'.
"Who are you?" asked 'Max' as he looked at 'Max'.
"I'm Max, the leader and founder of the Steel Rats," said 'Max', causing the other 'Max' to frown.
"I'm also Max, the leader and founder of the Steel Rats," said the other Max, causing both of them to deeply frown.
...
For over five minutes, under the curious eyes of Beatrice, the two 'Max' stared at each other silently, as if to examine each other.
Without any warning, rhyme, or reason, the 'Max' who was stuck in Garry's body suddenly jumped forward toward the 'Max' still in his own body.
Although the body was that of a normal person, after over five minutes, 'Max' a Grand Knight had managed to slightly adapt to it.
Using his exquisite knowledge of fighting, 'Max' was able to push this body to its very limit, and ran at a speed far beyond normal.
Without giving the other 'Max' any time to react, 'Max' had managed to pierce his left eye using his finger.
After that, though, the other 'Max' took action, as he let out a punch towards the 'Max' that had attacked him.
Without any hesitation, 'Max', dodged the punch launched against him, as he moved his body at a weird angle.
Although the punch looked exactly like one he would send himself, as he dodged it, a faint smile appeared on the face of 'Max'.
"You're a fake!!" shouted Max as he grabbed onto his own arm and moved himself using it.
Only a fraction of a moment later, before the fake could react. Max's fist suddenly punched him in the face with extreme force.
But before the punch could land, both of them suddenly lost control of their bodies as Beatrice appeared next to them.
"It's as I thought, even though I replaced his memories and swapped their bodies, the real one was still easily found out," mumbled Beatrice as she looked into the terrified eyes of the two men.
By now, both of the men had realized what had actually happened, but even so, they could only look on in despair, as they weren't able to control their bodies in the slightest.
A few moments later, Beatrice knocked out both of the men before dragging both of them behind her.
Although the two of them did not know it yet, as Beatrice did not have many experimental subjects left, the two of them would have to endure a lot.
