In fact, Joan wanted to stay and avoid getting involved in this sudden storm.
However, he could also see that Major Vaasa actually wanted him to visit Rebecca together. Besides, Rebecca was also his classmate. He knew that the other party was ill and refused to visit. Doesn't it seem that he was very cold-blooded ?
Joan recalled that when Miss Martha learned that her sister Rebecca had been beaten by a brick, he accused him of being "heartless" and "heart-hearted". At that time, these criticisms made him feel very unpleasant, as if the scars were exposed.
In order to prove that he is not lacking in human touch, Joan had to make a reluctant decision.
"Mr. Vasa, I will go with you!"
"That's good! Tobias, hurry up and prepare two horses, and Joan and I will start!"
The plantation of the Castes family is connected to the pasture of the Vassar family. Geographically speaking, the two are neighbors. However, the land of the Castis family was too vast, and it took Joan and his group three people a half an hour before they arrived at the "White House Manor".
In the living room of the Castis's house, Miss Martha paced back and forth, sometimes stopping to listen to the slight sob from the basement, her face intertwined with pain and anxiety.
At this moment, there was a rapid horseshoe sound outside the window.
Miss Martha appeared surprised and hurried out of the door.
In the deep night, the three knights came flying by.
Philip Downs, who led the way, jumped down before the horse stopped, and ran quickly to the hostess.
"Miss, I invited Mr. Vaasa, and Mr. Vader came!"
"Thank you Lord Timothy!"
Miss Martha raised her left hand and made a circle in the counterclockwise direction on her chest.
"Philip, you have worked hard, and go to help the two gentlemen to tie the horse."
Joan turned and dismounted, handing the reins to the servants of the Castes family, followed Miss Martha and Major Vasa into the living room.
When he entered the door, he inadvertently heard a whimper of crying, and he couldn't help but froze for a moment, then stopped and listened carefully.
The crying sound seemed to be coming from under the cracks in the floor, which reminded him of those horrible and horrible folk tales, which made his back cold.
"Masha, what about Rebecca?" Vaasa asked.
"Not very good...She is very emotional and crying all the time." Martha sighed. "Unless she can calm down, her condition will only worsen."
"Where is she now?"
"In the basement."
"You shut her in the basement?" Vaasa's face changed slightly.
"Of course I don't want to do this. It was proposed by Rebecca himself. I have to admit that this is the best way to avoid her causing more damage..."
Miss Martha wiped tears from the corners of her eyes.
"In fact, she locked herself in the basement, locked in the claustrophobic space she hated most and feared... I was sad, I hated my incompetence even more, and I couldn't do anything."
As early as more than a month ago, when Joan visited the White House Estate for the first time, she heard Miss Martha accidentally talk about her sister Rebecca's hair becoming silvery white when she was out of control when she was young. Aggressive.
When Rebecca was young, the mother of the sisters, the hard-working and stern Lord Lady Castis, in order to avoid Rebecca's mutated hair and damage, she locked her daughter in a dark and depressed basement, Until she calmed down.
The young Rebecca therefore left a serious psychological shadow, especially fearing the enclosed dark space like the basement.
Joan imagined how painful and helpless Rebecca was when she was forced to lock herself in the basement.
"Miss Martha, did you just say that Miss Rebecca entered the basement by herself?"
Joanne couldn't help but question.
"If she can make such a sensible decision, doesn't it mean that she has the ability to control her behavior, how can she condone the mutated hair and hurt people?"
"It's a bit complicated to explain, let's talk while walking."
Miss Martha took a bunch of keys from the housekeeper and took Joan and Vaasa to the stairs leading to the basement.
"Joan, have you ever heard of a spell called "Stable mind"?"
"Of course I know." Joan nodded.
The 2-ring spell "stable mind" is both arcane and divine, and its role is to temporarily suppress the subject's abnormal emotions and restore calm.
In addition, the "stable mind" can also be used to suppress the spells and skills that achieve the purpose by controlling people's emotions, such as charm, fear, and rage effects, will be suppressed by the "stable mind".
"When Rebecca's hair is mutated due to uncontrollable emotions, the use of "stable mind" can temporarily suppress her mutated long hair, and Rebecca can also temporarily recover her sobriety."
"Unfortunately, the effect of the spell can only be maintained for only one minute, and Rebecca made a decision in this minute-he ran into the basement and locked the door."
Speaking of which, Miss Martha couldn't help choking.
"Actually, I blamed me for this accident. I shouldn't have quarreled with Rebecca. The bigger mistake was that I couldn't find her emotionally out of control in time, otherwise she would be able to cast a "stable mind" before her hair changed color to prevent the condition from deteriorating... …"
"From past experience, when Rebecca's hair has just begun to mutate and has not completely turned into silver-white, blessing her with a "stable mind" in time can interrupt the mutation process and make her return to normal."
"However, this time is only a few seconds, and a little hesitation will miss it, so you can't blame Martha."
While George Vassar explained to Joan, he also tried to comfort Miss Martha, but unfortunately did not help Miss Martha escape his guilt.
"If the first missed opportunity was just an accident, what happened next made me unable to forgive myself..."
Miss Martha blamed herself with tears.
"When Rebecca's hair is completely silver-white, the low-level spells like "stable mind" can do nothing for her. Only high-level magic like "reverse evil" or "high recovery" can be used. Rebecca returned to normal."
Of course Joanne will not forget the accident that happened on the first day of school.
Rebecca's emotions were out of control because of Thomas's teasing. The mutated long hair almost strangled Thomas alive. Eventually, Rebecca's mentor Claire Mammy played a "counter-evil" to calm her down.
Afterwards, Joant searched the library for information on "counter-evil evil", and learned that this is a 5th-level magic technique. The priest must at least reach level 9 to perform.
Miss Martha is only a 5th-level priest, obviously unable to perform this magic.
It is normal for a person not to be able to do anything beyond his ability. Why should Miss Martha blame herself?
