Chapter 503: Ah, I'm Blessed By Life Essence~
⇐ ⇒
The pure energy swiftly permeated every corner of Yaeger's body in the blink of an eye, accompanied by a faint crackling sound in her head, as if something was breaking. Amidst her confusion, the system's announcement continued:
Your [Green Emperor's Longevity Manual] has reached stage two. Your lifespan has increased by ten days.
Ding! You have harnessed the second needle of [Heretical Seven Needles], [Mortal Flesh].
Hearing this, Yaeger exhaled in surprise. She hadn't anticipated that curing a disease would extend her lifespan by ten days. After using seven days of her lifespan on the [Chaos Roulette] for the second time, she now had a net gain of three days.
What amazed her more was her initial assumption that each stage of [Green Emperor's Longevity Manual] would add only a day to her lifespan, but reaching the second stage had increased it tenfold.
‘If reaching another stage yields ten times the lifespan, then wouldn't the third stage grant me a hundred days… Hiss, unimaginable!' However, she couldn't be certain unless she actually reached the third stage.
In addition to her increased lifespan, Yaeger noticed a significant enhancement in her healing skills, seemingly a result of [Heretical Seven Needles].
"Strange. Why is my aura so solid now?" she wondered, sensing that her previously unfocused aura had become as solid as the ground. She also realized a slight overall increase in strength, but when she checked her character interface, there were no changes.
"I reached the second stage of [Green Emperor's Longevity Manual] and my overall strength has increased slightly, but nothing has changed in the interface. Does this mean that my strength can no longer be quantified accurately using numbers?" Yaeger mused to herself, though no one was there to respond.
Meanwhile, outside, Fiat observed the bright light emanating from the room and grew even more anxious. ‘Is it actually working?' He felt a strong impulse to burst into the room.
Aurora, his dearest person, and he had relied on each other since childhood. He knew that if anything happened to her, he would likely go insane. However, he feared that any impulsive action on his part might irreversibly damage her treatment. No matter how anxious and upset he was, he had to endure it and hold onto that glimmer of hope.
As Fiat grappled with his anxiety, Yaeger, inside the room, was calm and collected. She raised her hand, observing a green flame burning on her palm. "Indeed, my life energy is now much purer… No, it seems to have other effects as well."
She was uncertain about the specific effects, which were probably due to [Mortal Flesh], the second needle of [Heretical Seven Needles]. With a wave of her hand, the flame extinguished. Yaeger felt incredibly energized at that moment, as if she had an infinite reservoir of energy. This newfound vitality was undoubtedly a result of the [Green Emperor's Longevity Manual], further augmented by the anomalous energy she had purified.
"Aurora had been feeding them for years. Now that they have become my food, they have given me a lot of benefits," Yaeger mused as she gazed at the deeply sleeping Aurora. "It's time to give back some of the energy to you."
She moved quietly to the bedside, conjuring a needle ablaze with green flames in her right hand, and gently stabbed it into Aurora's flat stomach. Aurora's face contorted with pain, but she showed no signs of waking, still exhausted from the earlier medical treatment.
As Yaeger infused a vast amount of life energy into Aurora's body, noticeable changes began to occur. The most obvious transformation was in her dull yellow hair, which instantly became radiant and smooth.
Her emaciated body seemed to fill out, gaining a healthy appearance. Meanwhile, Yaeger's own face grew pale, and her pupils shrank, as returning the energy proved to be an exhausting task for her.
Fifteen minutes passed in this state. If anyone familiar with Aurora were to see her now, they would be astounded by the transformation. The current Aurora seemed like an entirely different person, resembling a sleeping beauty awaiting a prince's kiss to awaken.
In stark contrast, Yaeger's complexion was alarmingly pale, her face now devoid of any color. "I'm so tired…" she whispered, lifting her right hand wearily. The feat she had just accomplished was nothing short of a miracle. Aurora's body, ravaged by anomalous energy for years and weakened, should not have recovered fully under normal circumstances.
However, Yaeger turned the impossible into reality. Not only did she heal Aurora, but she also enhanced her body beyond its previous limitations, pushing it to its highest potential.
The transformation was so profound that, were Aurora to wake up and look in the mirror, she would most likely not recognize herself. After Yaeger's meticulous procedure, Aurora emerged undoubtedly more beautiful.
This change was not akin to cosmetic surgery; it was a holistic improvement. Yaeger's intervention had refined Aurora's natural features, accentuating her inherent beauty and vitality. In essence, she didn't just restore Aurora; she evolved her into the best version of herself—a version brimming with health, radiance, and vitality.
"Perfect. As expected of me," Yaeger smiled with satisfaction, admiring the revitalized Aurora. But then she noticed a minor imperfection on Aurora's inner thigh. Acting swiftly, Yaeger lifted Aurora's leg and caressed the area with her hand, still glowing with green energy.
The skin transformed under her touch, becoming smooth and flawless. As she prepared to lower Aurora's leg, Aurora's eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes, locking gaze with Yaeger in a moment of quiet realization. "You're awake," Yaeger greeted with a smile.
"Ahhhhh!" Aurora screamed in response, understandably startled by the situation. Fiat, hearing his sister's scream, widened his eyes in shock and burst into the room. Yaeger quickly covered Aurora's body with a blanket to maintain modesty, respecting the sibling boundaries.
"Aurora!" Fiat rushed to the bed, only to be met with another scream from Aurora. He was taken aback by the stunningly beautiful and healthy girl lying on the bed. Upon closer inspection, he recognized her familiar features – it was his sister!
Realizing the transformation was due to Yaeger's intervention, gratitude filled his eyes as he saw Yaeger discreetly lowering Aurora's leg. Overwhelmed with emotion, Fiat knelt down, tears streaming down his face. This moment was a true testament to the saying: A man only sheds blood, not tears, until his heart is deeply moved.
