Reason??? : Leaving (5)

After they had their family meeting, they re-invite the wizard back into the room to resume the girl's treatment.

"Are you ready?" Mr Tolius asks as he offers the antimagic pebble to the girl.

The girl gulped as she stares at the small stone with distaste. 

As she carefully picks up the pebble and was ready to feed it into her mouth, she asks,

"About the side effects... I wouldn't like... grow a pair of horns or have blue scaly skin or something like that... right?" 

"Hm... I have yet to see or hear news of anyone growing a pair of horns or have blue scaly skin." 

*phew~* she felt a little relief till he added, "But... since every individual shows a different response, I cannot say that the possibility isn't zero."

[Ugh... why does this man like to say things halfway?! 

So does this mean I could really grow a pair of horns or become a blue skin monster? Or both?!!! 

Sh*t! Must I really eat this?!]
