136 Conjectures II

'Wait wait wait!!!' Clarence's eyes opened wide as he thought about the device he used to test the impurities in the water. The one he made himself.

He still remembered his breath being halted the moment he looked at the impurities. (*chp 4*)

Could it be that the werewolf was nearby? Washing away his wounds in the river? It could explain how some of the poison washed away and ended up in his device.

At that time his physique was only at rank one as he was still rankless, and rank one only because of the training and numerous medicines.

But it still was nowhere near enough to help him resist against a poison of the path.

Thankfully it was an already used poison — on werewolf's body — then it was treated by werewolf's mana before being washed into the river, where it was diluted due to the water, and his breath still halted due to that minute amount of poison.

He remembered that the snake had come shortly after, resulting in him running away.
