Chapter 2685 Inanna's Trouble (Ⅱ)

Qiao An was silent for a few seconds, facing her daughter's innocent and eager eyes, and finally nodded frankly.

"Saoirse is telling the truth."

"Mother, I have a request!" Inanna suddenly became excited, "Can you help me hold the ritual of sacrificing the main eye, so that I can become a 'Magic Eye Arcanist'?"

Joan didn't answer her daughter's request directly, and asked her softly, "Is this Saoirse's suggestion to you?"

Inanna froze for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, never said such a thing, this is just my own thought!"

"Advanced magic eye arcanists have to sacrifice their dominant eye. Once they take this step, it will be too late to regret it in the future."

"Why do you regret it?!" Inanna trembled excitedly, "If I were a healthy beholder, I might feel that the sacrifice was too big and not worth it, but I was originally a deformed child with a hypoplastic dominant eye. What's so bad about having a powerful spellcasting ability in exchange for the useless half-disabled dominant eye?"

Taking a deep breath, the young beholder looked up at his mother. The deformed main eye and ten stalked eyes were filled with tears, full of pure and sincere affection.

"More importantly... Mother, I want to be exactly like you!"

Inanna's words made Joan's heart tremble. She was both moved and sad, and could hardly bear to agree to her daughter's request.

However, she immediately restrained her impulsive emotions, opened the "Spiritual Theater" for a while, so as to calm herself down, and calmly consider the pros and cons of Inanna's advanced "Magic Eye Arcanist".

A minute later, Joan broke the silence.

"Inanna, you regard your mother as a role model. Of course, your mother is very happy, but you have to know that not every decision made by your mother is correct, and there are things that your mother does not deserve your emulation."

"Mother...would you regret sacrificing your master eye to become an advanced magic eye arcanist?" Inanna asked cautiously.

"I can't say I regret it, but I won't lie to myself that this is the best choice. In fact, Mage or Warlock is also very suitable for our beholder family, although these two spellcasting professions are not as comprehensive as the magic eye arcanist. , at least without sacrificing your own dominant eye."

Joan stretched out an eye stalk and stroked her daughter's forehead.

"For example, Lady Saoirse is a quasi-legendary warlock, and her spellcasting ability is not inferior to that of her mother. In fact, she is more suitable for you to emulate than me."

"Your Excellency is different from me!" Inanna yelled stubbornly: "She has a healthy dominant eye, but I don't! I would rather go blind myself than keep this deformed and ugly eyeball!"

Hearing her daughter's tearful complaints, Joan couldn't help but feel pain in her heart. She instinctively raised her eye stalks, leaned behind her, and tried to touch the "sacred seal of strange eyes" on the back of her neck.

In the next moment, she suddenly realized that she had become a beholder and lost her human form. The deformed eyeball that originally grew on the back of her neck had already been transferred to the end of an eye stalk.

Still, she was able to empathize with her daughter's feelings of inferiority and decided to take the issue seriously.

"Inanna, can you see if this works? Next, Mom will try to use magic to help you correct the defect of the main eye. If this doesn't work, Mom will respect your choice and help you hold a sacrifice ceremony to guide you to advance to the magic eye. magician."

"Conversely, if your mother successfully corrects your birth defects, I hope you will consider your future more carefully."

"Okay! My lord, if my dominant eye can be corrected, I will try my best to become a mage!"

Mage?

Joan couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

She never instilled in her daughter views such as "mages are superior to other arcane spellcasting professions", and she didn't understand why Inanna preferred mages over sorcerers who were more in line with the talents of the beholders.

Suppressing her doubts for the time being, Joan focused on how to help Inanna correct the birth defect of the dominant eye.

If Inanna's symptoms are regarded as a kind of disability, then in theory, the potion prepared by "Tears of God" or "Regeneration" can repair it.

Inanna had already drank the mythical potion, which proved to be ineffective.

Still not giving up, Joan immediately drew a "power of myth", touched Inanna's main eye lightly with the stalk, and applied the "psychic regeneration technique" to her. As expected, her main eye did not change at all.

It can be seen that congenital aberrations are different from acquired disabilities.

The "regeneration" function of the mythical potion, including "regeneration", can only treat acquired disabilities, such as limbs that have been cut off in battle. After receiving this type of treatment, they can immediately return to the state before the disability. The deformity is powerless.

The essence of "regeneration" is to "restore" the mutilated limbs and organs to the healthy state before the injury. The premise is that there must be a healthy state as a reference standard. Embryo shape?

This doesn't make sense in theory.

It's like a mental boy who is only five feet tall. He feels that he is born with stunted growth and belongs to the "second-class disabled". Can it work?

Obviously not.

When people talk about "congenital dysplasia", they often pay more attention to their subjective likes and dislikes than physical examination reports and statistical data, and "regeneration" can do nothing about it.

It's not difficult for Joan to imagine that even if Inanna cuts out the main eye and receives the "myth potion" or "regeneration" treatment, the re-grown main eye is still deformed—just like it was born.

Putting these theoretical issues aside, let's talk about something practical. Don't worry about whether I'm born with stunted growth or not. I just think I'm short, too fat, and have bad eyesight. Tell me frankly, can you use magic to improve the current situation?

Don't say it, it's really possible to do it!

"Make a wish, Inanna, 'Rebirth' can't help you, but the ninth-level 'Wish' might do it."

If you are undecided, just pray, the mage has reached the level of Qiao An, so arrogant!

Inanna nodded her head, and under her mother's guidance, she made a wish in as clear and precise words as possible.

Joan chanted the incantation in conjunction with her daughter's wishing ceremony, stretched out her eye stem and caressed Inanna's main eye, injecting a mysterious and vast magical power into her body.

Inanna suddenly felt itchy eyeballs and couldn't help rubbing them again and again, tears flowed from her eyes.

After just a few seconds, she was surprised to find that her field of vision became wider than ever, and everything in front of her was so clear and vivid, with vivid colors!

"Mother! My eyes... have brightened!"

With tears in her eyes, Inanna couldn't help cheering excitedly.
