"Haha." Peterson laughed and patted on the cheeky girl's head. "It's good to see that you are confident. I know you've learned how to handle the gun well now, but you still need to be careful. We don't know if you'll suddenly have another attack again."
Peterson was referring to the girl's headaches. Ivy's headaches have become more frequent since the day she left, and the pain has gotten worse with each attack. Even if she had the antimagic pills, it could only help her lessen the frequency but not the pain. Tolius had advised her to avoid taking the pills unless necessary since her physical appearance was starting to change a lot, and the whiter she became meant that the pill's negative effects were slowly taking her life away.
