The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5698

Ruby nodded and said, “That's right.”

Charlie asked again, “Have you ever used Reiki to explore its mysteries?”

Ruby replied, “We tried, but the pineal gland is usually closed, and our Reiki can't enter it at all.”

Charlie nodded, then sighed and said, “It seems that Fleur truly has formidable strength. I haven't even activated my own pineal gland. If I can't even activate my own, I don’t think I can activate other people’s pineal glands. Therefore, the self-destructive formation inside you probably can't be removed in the short term.”

Ruby sighed lightly and said, “I never thought about removing the formation. I just hope it won't harm other innocent people. Besides, I don't have much time left to live. I will only be able to live for a little more than two years.”

Charlie asked curiously, “Miss Chain, why do you say that?”

Ruby explained, “I have a strange poison left by Fleur in my body. I have to take an antidote once every three years, or my meridians will be cut off, and my organs will be destroyed, subsequently leading to death.”

Charlie frowned and said, “Do you mind if I take a look?”

After a moment of hesitation, Ruby gently nodded and extended her right hand to Charlie.

Charlie sighed and said, “It seems that the deepest part of the Reiki in your body should be the poison itself, and the Reiki involved with it is the effect of the antidote. As long as the effect of the antidote remains, it can stabilize the poison's properties. However, the effect of the antidote has been slowly absorbed by the former, and once the stabilizing effect of the latter, acting as a stabilizer, is completely absorbed by the former, the former will erupt, causing you to die.”

Charlie then continued, “The poison in your body is completely different from that of the dead soldiers and the Armed Calvary Guards. The poison in the bodies of the dead soldiers and the Armed Calvary Guards is a complex structure of poison. It should be a special poison refined by Fleur, matched with a special antidote to form a restraint. However, the poison in your body is more like a special Reiki instead of a poison

Ruby nodded and smiled in a self-deprecating manner as she said, “This is Fleur’s ingenuity. The poison and antidote she gave us are actually special Reikis. The clever part is that if we don't take the antidote, we'll die from poisoning. If we take the antidote, it seems to stabilize this energy, but in fact, it continuously enhances the strength of this energy. It's like chronic poisoning, where we will only get deeper and deeper.”

Charlie sighed and said, “Fleur is clever indeed. The consequence of this poison and antidote for you is that the longer you live, the more antidote you have to take. The more antidote you take, the stronger the poison in your body becomes. Even if you practice diligently and constantly improve your strength, you will never be able to break free from Fleur’s control over this poison because you have to take the antidote once every three years!”
