Chapter 159 - Impressive... (1/2)

I and Allessa went back to our normal selves, and we started walking in the direction of the destroyed village, but I happen to feel something strange... Focusing on it for a bit I had some surprises.

”Huh...”(Aizen).

”So you felt it too...”(Allessa).

”Yep, there is someone still alive. There used to be some kind of orphanage”(Aizen).

The city wasn't a pretty sight to see, you could see bodies everywhere, thankfully most of these people appears to be killed relatively fast, whatever did this did with some sort of job, not out of some sort of twisted pleasure.

But the number of bodies is worrisome, the city isn't so big to host so many people, so maybe they executed some prisoners here? could be it.

Both me and Allessa went in the direction of the life signal. We reached a destroyed orphanage, soon on the lobby we can see the corpses of kids everywhere, but whatever did this was in a hurry as the cuts were simple and clean, to kill fast and the most efficient way possible, thankfully whatever killed them didn't bother to check the bodies.

The is a little girl that was bisected in two, fo all intents and purposes she should be dead 10 times over, but for some reason, she is holding on to her life with such a tenacity that could easily bring most being to shame... Impressive.

”Do you want me to heal her?”(Allessa).

”Nah, I got this covered.”(Aizen).

Suddenly a [Sun Mark] appeared in my hand, my body tart emanating a soft golden glow reminiscent of something Holy and sacred. I touch the girl's head, my big hand making the one-year-old look like some sort of barbie doll in my hands. Suddenly her whole body lit up.

Golden marks traveled all over her body, the gloomy atmosphere all around town disappeared, being replaced by a solemn holy feeling. The golden marks start to lit up, suddenly you could see her legs regrowing, her nerves, her muscles, and her skin. With just a simple touch I had completely healed her.

We went for the room that was thankfully empty of corpses and put the little girl there to sleep. Allessa even traded her torn up clothes. We need to decide what to do with her. But first, I want to test something...

”What you want to do?”(Allessa).

”Well, I am still thinking about it. but first want to test something, let's go outside of the village for a bit, my test can cause quite a mess.”(Aizen).

”Sure no problem.”(Allessa).

We headed to the outside of the village when we got a good distance away I said something that clearly surprised Allessa...

”I want you to punch me with all you got”(Aizen).

”Sorry, Aizen I am not comfortable with this kind of thing...”(Allessa).

”No I am not a masochist. I just want to test how much stronger you are comparing to myself.”(Aizen).

”But I don't want to hurt you...”(Allessa).

”Ok fine. I will just extend my hand, and then you punch it. If I lose my arm and somehow aren't able to heal it, you can easily regrow a limb right?”(Aizen).

”I guess if it is like that I see no problem...Prepare yourself.”(Allessa)

I took a deep breath letting my breathing skill take a deeper hold, using my I filled up my body with Holy Release. Yup, I have awakened Holy Release after becoming an Arhat and a Boddhisattva, it sure has the normal uses holy energy has in fiction you see everywhere, but I am using it right now its power to enhance my body, I covered my arm in khaki, I used Gravity Release to make myself heavier, I even used Wood Release to glue my feet on the ground. Another deep breath, and then I raised my arm...

She punched...

And my arm was gone, destroyed, I would be surprised if a cell survived such an attack. The attack was so clean, it didn't even make any sound, if I hadn't seen her punching I wouldn't have been able to even detect an incoming attack, in one instant everything was fine and dandy, and in the next just pain, thankfully years suffering worse pain numbed me to the sensation so I didn't even show it in my face. She is strong... extremely soo.

”Are you okay...”(Allessa)

”Yes, I am. It's just an arm”(Aizen).

With this, I take a deep breath suddenly the form of a skeletal arm lit up, it slowly reformed the bone-white skeleton, formed the nerves, the muscles, the blood vessels, and finally the skin. Huh, my breathing skill really does speed up my recovery.

”Are you really okay Aizen? I know it was something stupid to do, I shouldn't have done it...”(Allessa).

”Relax Allessa. I just wanted to test how much I improved, I was just thinking a bit. Thanks for helping me with his test, I really appreciate it”(Aizen).

”You're Welcome. Just please don't make me do it again, I really don't like to hurt you...”(Allessa).
