Medically, the first line of treatment for atrioventricular node reentry tachycardia is adenosine.

It blocks the signal by increasing the half-life of the atrioventricular node where the signal returns.

But since this was a mana-induced arrhythmia, a different treatment was needed.

Raymond remembered a message from earlier.

[An ability that could be especially useful when treating patients with mana reflux!]

It seemed to suggest treating this condition with mana control.

'Careful.'

He manifested Mana Control and blocked the spinning mana in the atrioventricular node!

Then something amazing happened.

The heart stopped beating irregularly!

"... ha!"

Laina let out a deep sigh.

Her pounding heart stabilized.

"Are you okay?"

"Ah... Yeah."

Laina looked at Raymond with wide eyes.

'How did he manage to calm my mana heart's reflux so easily?'

She was beyond amazed.

Knowing nothing about medicine, she assumed that Raymond must have manifested immense mana control to stabilize the backflow of the mana heart.

'What is this crazy mana control, is he the reincarnation of a dragon or something?'

The mana control Raymond was displaying now was unprecedented.

"Unbelievable! Amazing! Great! Crazy!"

Laina shouted out a series of non-slang words that didn't match her elegant attire.

"It's a miracle! An innate mage?"

She cried out in a frantic voice,

'...The power of medicine, and skill.'

Raymond narrowed his eyes.

There was something strange about the look in the lady's eyes.

... He felt a sense of déjà vu. The déjà vu of Duke Leif!

There was something even more piercing.

'...An innate mage, that's not what I am.'

Who is an innate mage?

It was a constitution that legendary mages were born with.

He was not like that.

"I'm not that kind of person. I simply performed a miracle for the sake of the patient."

However, doubt lingered in her expression, and Raymond felt a sudden chill.

'Well, at least she can't be as relentless as Duke Leif, right? She's a renowned lady in her own right.'

The red-blodded lady.

Though he didn't know her personally, he assumed she carried herself with dignity.

Despite being addressed as Lady, there was more to her.

"..."

Laina's gaze bore into Raymond, reminiscent of, what was it called?

It was like the eyes of a lady.

The eyes of an exceedingly covetous lady.

It felt like staring at the most coveted jewelry in the world.
