Healers Shouldn't be this Powerful

Chapter 18: Price to Pay

This was the first time he was using the Mitotic Regeneration on someone, He still remembers the warning, it’s still fresh in his mind.. But he can’t waste another second....


Placing his hand in her Body,


The healing light quickly changed from green to golden light with green hues at the ends, Then Daxi’s Anatomy came into his mind, he could see her shattered bones, torn muscles, raptured organs and dying cells.


Her body became like an open book to him. ’Woah, this.. This is far greater than any kind of healing, Ok what to do. I guess I have to try to change the cell I’m going to transfer to her to make it compatible.


It would be problematic if she suddenly gets rejected by her own body or it fights itself.’ Thinking that, he started to look within his body. Then each of his cells in his hand became alive.


It was though he became a King and his body cells became his subjects, ready to act out any of his commands.’Ok, That looks simple, I wonder what the warning was about’.


He looked at Daxi’s affected areas, then willed his cells to separate from him, convert then start to rebuild on her. At first his body slowly started to get warm. Nothing happened yet.


All this has taken only a few seconds, on Matilda and Gladious’ side.. Things were getting tough, The loss of Daxi was evident.


Just as they were charging at the beast, they heard an inhumane scream. The screeching sound was that no human throat could make. But right now Niklaus was the one making it. His face looked like that of a person in an agonizing pain.


His outfit was getting drenched in sweat. A golden light started to glow soon after. Blinding in nature, The moment it reached Matilda and Gladious, it felt like they were being bathed in warm light. Their fatigue was thrown out the window.


But they weren’t in the mood to relax, Their faces seemed genuinely concerned not only for Daxi, but for Niklaus. The pain he was going through wasn’t something a human should be feeling.


It felt like his body was being torn apart and rebuilt again and again. It seems the huge pool of mana he had was specially for this skill. He regenerates his body from Mana while he transfers the cells to Daxi.


A painfully slow process. He felt each organ that was rapture, every skin tear, and bone fracture. And to him it was 10 times painful. Soon his eyes looked like those of a person who has disassociated with life.

As soon as this pop up came to being, a great amount of pain suddenly got reduced. It was still so painful, but Niklaus’s pain tolerance got boosted.


As soon as the anguish stopped, the light intensified much more. The cell’s transfer became faster, making Daxi’s injuries start to heal at a visible rate. Soon her face started to regain its rosy color.


Her health became discernibly better, the light started to weaken, losing its golden color and started to look normal healing green. Daxi’s eyes started to flutter, ready to open and regain consciousness.


"Aaaaaah!!!!" A scream escaped her lips as she quickly got up. This caught the attention of both Matilda and Gladious.


"Stop screaming like a bitch and start helping already" Gladious screaming to the top of his lungs. His voice startled her from her episode. It was then that she realized that she was actually ok, Her body was good as new. Matter of fact better than new.


On her screen, a pop of a few attributes gained showed. She quickly eyes the person responsible, as though she was looking at something that should be possible. The moment she got up, she felt like she was given a new body, with better specs than her old one.


"What..Just what kind of healer are..." Just as she looked at Niklaus’ eyes, it felt like she was being stared at by a being of nothing. His eyes didn’t look like the kind a human should have, they held no life in them.


She even felt her soul shake in fright, but soon the luster of light slowly returned, she saw his turn from a cold machine into a real human in real time. "Daxi!!! Get your lazy ass here right now"


Gladious’s voice startled her, making her turn into a smoke of shadow. As soon as she left, Niklaus lifted his body, carefully looking at it, as though he just changed a set of clothing, he had not gained attributes but he felt like he had gained something else.


He then turned his sight and looked at Daxi, looking at the way she fought. Soon he was able to predict her movement, as though a gamer holding a controller. But he wasn’t really controlling her, just predicting her habits based on her predicament.


"I can gain muscle memories of anyone I heal using my talent!?" This revelation came as a shock, but then he remembered what he had to go through just to get her on her feet.


’Don’t want to go through that painful experience again’ When he checked his magic reserves, he was surprised that healing her cost him 70% of his reserve.


"Niklaus get out of your head, I need to heal" Matilda spoke, her words caught the attention of both Glasious and Dax, they knew better than to question him now. It was apparent she wanted him to heal her while she was engaged in battle.


Niklais didn’t even wait to think of his class’s limitations. HIs mind concentrated on Matilda, then soon a green hue started to glow on her body, at first it was weak. But soon her body was covered by the green light.


Matilda’s movements went from sluggish, back to her peak performance. This got the two surprised, but that wasn’t the end of their surprise. Soon they felt a warm sensation within their body accompanied by the green light they knew all too well.


The sore spots and painful bruises started to subside. Their fatigue was also nowhere to be seen.
