128 Chapter 127 (2/2)
”Well, if someone is capable of learning that type of magic, I guess that someone is you,” Sarah said. ”I have an early day tomorrow, so I will go to my home.”
”Sarah, do you have access to the information that William and the others obtained?” Leon asked. ”I'm interested in how they managed to create magic items and those choppers that use mana.”
”Yes, we found those documents,” Sarah said. ”I will bring them to you tomorrow. I doubt that anyone would say anything against it.”
”Hahaha, I'm not asking them for free.” Leon laughed. ”Just the copies should be enough; if you need help with something, I can help you tomorrow all day. However, we will leave the city the day after tomorrow.”
”All right,” Sarah said.
After that, Sarah left the room, and Leon brought the armchair to the side of the bed. Leon put the gloves and grabbed the steel knife, until now, Leon refused the idea to cause self-warm, with passion, but now to help a friend, he had to do it. His gloves could only heal wounds, and to understand the process, he had to see that with his own eyes.
Slowly, Leon made a point of the knife touch his skin. Although the blade was pretty sharp, Leon didn't felt anything, then he understood why. The gloves increased his endurance, and since the knives weren't magic weapons, it would have a hard time cutting the flesh. Leon had to strike without hesitation, and so he did it… because he wanted to help a friend.
Blood started to drip from the small wound, but after a few seconds stopped. Not to dirty the floor, Leon created an earth bucket and filled it with water. While he did that, he observed the wound closing at a fearsome speed. It didn't even leave a scar.
”I see… the wound just heals a lot faster than it should. There are no shining lights causing a miracle… the mana just accelerates the natural healing process. I wonder if that is dangerous to the body.”
Although it was hard to be sure, Leon was quite certain that mana wasn't harmful even when it accelerates the natural healing of human flesh. That was because Leon used mana like a madman for the past four years, and until now, he didn't feel anything weird with his body. It was as if… mana was the purest and harmless font of energy in the universe.
”So, I should just use my mana to make the cells heal faster?”
To manipulate the basic elements, Leon had to infuse his mana in them, to strengthen them, he had to do that twice, and to create them, he had to change the properties of his mana. However, he couldn't imagine one of those steps making wounds heal faster.
”I guess I have to do it again.”
Leon took off the gloves, and this time the knife pierced his skin quite easily. Leon tried to infuse his mana in the wound, but he failed again and again. Why? Because the injury was in his body, and his mana was in his body. He didn't have to infuse his mana… he had to make his mana inside his body heal the wound before the recovery heals it.
