Chapter 60: Meeting The Healer Again (1/2)
”Oh, right. You haven't seen me in this form before.”
The woman chuckled lightly.
”You know them?”
Reon, who was resting on the bed, opened his eyes and asked.
”Yes. That girl asked me to heal her little sister.”
The woman pointed to Aleshia.
”W-Who are you?”
Aleshia stuttered as she asked.
”Ahh! It's so good to finally be able to stand.”
To Lawrend and Aleshia's surprise, Reon, who was supposed to be heavily injured, suddenly stood up and stretched his arms.
”Don't be surprised. After all, this woman beside me is the best healer in the Lanshia Province.”
Reon introduced the woman beside him with a smile. He was glad that he didn't have to be incapacitated for a long time.
”That's right. I am Healer Natasha, or rather, I am Natasha Jersice, an Arch Mage Healer.”
The woman introduced herself proudly as she looked at Aleshia in amusement.
”Y-YOU ARE THAT OLD WOMAN!?”
Aleshia's eyes bulged out in shock. She doesn't look like the same woman from any angle. Just her tall height and her smooth skin right now are a great contrast to what the Healer Natasha she saw back then at the shrine was.
”Rude. You should know that calling a woman 'old' is rude.”
Natasha frowned in displeasure at Aleshia's words.
”I-I'm sorry. It's just too surprising.”
Aleshia bowed in apology. However, it was still too unbelievable for her.
”Young girl, magic is all-powerful. Watch.”
Natasha lectured Aleshia. Then her body suddenly changed form. Her smooth skin turned wrinkly, her hair whitened, her height decreased, and her curvy figure disappeared.
”Yuck. Stop transforming to your old figure when I'm here. It's so creepy.”
Reon complained in displeasure.
”Hah? Do you want me to reverse my healing on your body?”
Natasha turned her head to Reon and gave him a glare that made chills run down his spine.
”N-No.”
Reon responded nervously. Natasha is a strong healer. She can freely manipulate her healing capabilities to the point that she can even reverse them. If being healed feels good, then being reverse healed feels very painful. He wouldn't even dare try it as a joke.
”Then shut up.”
Natasha said to him ferociously. She then turned her head to Aleshia before speaking.
”See?”
After saying so, her body returned to her youthful appearance. It was like what they saw earlier was just their imagination.
”That's so amazing…”
Lawrend murmured as he looked at her in a daze. He was once again reminded of how powerful magic is.
”Boy, this is just the tip of an iceberg. Once you see how capable the greatest healer of our continent is, you'll be more surprised.”
Natasha smirked at Lawrend. She doesn't consider her powers that strong because there are people out there that she could only look up to.
”Why tell him that so soon? Are you trying to discourage him from learning magic?”
Reon interjected. He looked at her with a frown. Suddenly being presented with the top may easily make someone feel they are insufficient. Thus, they lose all of their motivation.
