"It's as I thought."
Melissa stood up and walked in my direction.
When I saw her figure walk up to me, I backed up. I was a little apprehensive about her.
Recalling the earlier scenes that I wished to forget, I raised both hands and hugged my body.
"What do you want?"
"What's with that look? You think I'm going to assault you or something?"
"Yes."
I nodded my head.
"Yes."
I repeated to make sure she understood.
"Well, I'm not, so chill out."
Melissa rolled her eyes.
Taking out a chair, she sat close to me and showed me the device she used to test my blood.
Pointing toward a certain section, she spoke.
"Your blood seems to be contaminated by something extremely concentrated and powerful. It's probably why your mana is sealed."
