In the underground laboratory, hidden from the outside world. Merlin can be seen rotating a tube filled with purple liquid anti clockwise."System, how is the analysis of x7 poison?"
"Reporting the poison X7 contains 36% of yang chakra. The resulting poison feeds on the vitality of the infected, making it more incurable compared to other poisons."
"Does any of the poison effect match the Sugiri condition?"
"2 results partially match the requirements."
Listening to the feedback from the system, Merlin frowned. 'I should not focus on them; even staying alive is hard in this world.' " The poison X7 needs to be suppressed to prevent spreading, and the carrier of the poison can be a bug; if so, assassination will become easy."
Taking out a bug, Merlin dropped two drops of the liquid in the tube at the bug, activating his chakra. Merlin started to control the bug to fly to the mouse in the cage. After waiting for a few minutes, the mouse started to show a reaction. It's eyes became dull, and red blood started to flow from its eyes and mouth. It even started to struggle to break out of the cage. few minutes, the mice died. "The affected were seen to suffer from excruciating pain." After feeding a few more mice, Merlin continued the experiment. As night came, Merlin went to see Suguro and her sister at their house.
"Doctor, thank you for saving my daughter." As Merlin went in, he was met by Suguro's mother.
"You don't need to thank me; it's the duty of a doctor to treat patients. Besides, Sugoru had helped me a lot." Walking to Sugiri Bed, he asked, "How are you feeling? Are you having any difficulty?"
"No, doctor, I feel good, and I feel I have become more powerful than before." Said Sugiri with a bright smile. When Merlin completed the operation, he strengthened her body by engraving runes into her bones.
"Sugiri, before you had the fever, did you go anywhere or meet anyone.?" Merlin asked curiously.
"No doctor I haven't met anyone; however, I used to go to the valley to collect flowers for my mother. There are beautiful red flowers with gold spotting there."
"System, what is the flower described by her?"
"Reporting the flower mentioned by Sugiri would be red Flor, which contain poison. Inhaling it's pollen is extremely dangerous for humans, and they are used to make poison."
'So she was not poisoned by them, but she got poisoned due to her contact with red Flor' thought Merlin. "Sugiri, they are poisonous. You should not go near them."
Hearing this sugiri was taken back, she never expected such beautiful flowers to be poisonous. However, she decided to obey the doctor's words.
"The reason I came here is to tell everyone that I am going to leave the village." When Merlin said this, both the brother and sister were taken back. "But doctor, I haven't done anything for you even after you cured Sugiri." Said Suguro.
"The flower you said was really helpful for me, and you don't need to feel indebted. The reason I came here is to tell you that your sister has awakened her chakra. And it is not safe for you to stay in this village. I suggest you move away from this village."
Hearing that Sugiri has awakened the chakra surprised three of them; however, they did not expect to be safe at the village. "But doctor, where could we go leaving this village? With my mother's condition, it is not possible for us to leave," said Sugoru.
Hearing this, the first one to speak was the mother. "Sugoru, you don't have to look after me; you have done enough for me. You can leave the village with your sister." Listening to her, Merlin realized the old saying in his previous world that a true love of mother has no bounds: 'They would do anything for their children's happiness. "You don't need to worry; I came here also to cure you." After talking out the potion, Merlin gave it to her.
Looking at the glowing blue potion, she drank it without hesitation.
"Try to walk now."
Under the eyes of Sugoru and Sugiri, she attempts to stand up. She initially had no hope; after all, many doctors had already told her that it's impossible for her to walk; however, she chose to believe When Merlin placed her legs on the ground, she tried to move her legs as a miracle. She felt her legs were responding to her, so she took her first steps. Tears welled up in her eyes as she moved forward. Each step was a triumph over the pain and frustration she faced when she saw her children working hard for her. Seeing this, Sugiri and Suguro ran to her side. "Mother, you can stand up. I thought I could never see this again." Both of them started to cry out of happiness.
"Doctor, thank you. I don't know how we could repay you for what you did for us." However, when they looked at the place where Merlin stood, they found that he had disappeared, leaving behind an envelope that contained money.
Outside the village of Snow, Merlin was riding a horse and slowly traveling. "The next location I need to go is the land of leaf, but I need to lay low and stay there; I am not strong enough to face leaf shinobi now." Activating his chakra, Merlin contacted the spy Namua through the mental link he left in him. "I will be coming to the land of fire. I need you to find the location of the battlefield where Jiraya and Orochimaru fought."
