Chapter 212 - Curing The Queen

"I would have to press my hand tightly on your chest…", Rex said as he looked at her perfectly round and large breasts.

He didn't have any bad intentions but thought that this might be too uncomfortable for a lady.

Yes, if he wanted, he could heal her without doing this, however, he couldn't completely remove the poison unless he targets the specific area from a closer range.

Even if his mana was infinite, his courage wasn't. So he thought about informing her beforehand.

The Queen looked at the ground for a moment and hesitated. The same reaction was shown by Dan, but they were desperate to get the work done.

'Ah, they might be hesitating because it would be way too rude for a grown-up man to ask for such a thing.'

Rex removed his robe almost immediately after he thought that.

They had indeed seen his short stature, but now that they had a clear look at his face, they were no longer hesitating.

That was because the person standing in front of them was just a kid in their eyes.

Yes, Rex was below twenty while they were above thirty which was definitely a huge difference.

"Ah, son."

"Fine, let's do it right now.", she said with a chuckle.

Rex nodded his head and then asked her to take a seat.

After sitting, he approached her.

"Please close your eyes and take deep breaths.", he said.

She did as she was asked. Right after that, Rex slowly placed his hand a little above her breasts in order to prevent her from feeling uncomfortable.

"I will be starting…"

"But unless I say, don't open your eyes nor stop breathing heavily.", Rex said.

She nodded her head and continued to do what he had asked earlier.

'The fairy crest will be more than enough to cleanse the poison in her body.'

'But for her heart, I think I have to use time-reversal…', Rex thought.

Yes, time-reversal on a small scale was possible, but to do a time-reversal for about more than 16-20 years was no small thing.

He had a limited life force, if only that was infinite, then he would have become the strongest existence known.

But yes, for now, he had only a limited life force.

'Ha…'

'So it will cost me 30 years of my life?', he asked himself.

Before he executed the spell, he was sweating profusely. He wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do this, after all, he was risking his own life for such a thing.

However, he had indeed found a way to recover his life force. He just had to get the bench and had to ask about other trees similar to the wood of the bench.

Yes, while he sure was Chronos and knew about such trees, it had been far too long and all those places that had such trees had been changed and developed.

So, his only way to find those trees was to cure the Queen and ask king Dan about it.

'I wonder how long it would require for me to sit on the bench…', he was scared.

His hands were literally trembling. The Queen did feel that, but she didn't say anything else as Rex had asked her not to.

She kept quiet despite knowing that Rex was frightened for some reason.

'What if my life force completely depletes after using up my 30 years…?', this was his concern.

*gulp*

While he was unsure earlier, now he thought about using the time-reversal and just as he was about to use it, he suddenly got a different idea.

'Hold on a second…'

'Why do I need to poison to return to nothingness using time reversal?'

'What if I just reduce its development by making it go back in time only for a year or so, then I could use the crest to completely cleanse it.', Rex thought.

This idea was much more flexible and would work properly.

Yes, instead of making the poison vanish completely by letting it go back by eighteen to twenty years, only a couple of years and the crest would do the trick.

After thinking that, he did as he had planned.

As soon as he used time reversal, he started to sweat much more.

It was as if life was being sucked out of his hand at a rapid rate.

It was painful, scary, and traumatizing. Regardless of that, Rex continued and soon in three minutes, the poison had completely been cured.

"Ha…", he lifted his hand off of her chest as he panted.

Dan looked at him panting and then looked at the Queen whose skin had gotten fairer.

Even the Queen could feel her body getting filled with energy. It was as if some load was taken off of her body.

Rex turned his head towards the little girl without realizing only to find her holding her voice by placing both her hands on her mouth.

Yes, she was covering her mouth with her hands as she didn't want to disturb Rex when he was treating the Queen.

"Ha…"

"You can stop doing that now…", he said to the girl in a low voice.

However, the queen thought that it was said to her. She stopped doing what Rex had asked earlier immediately and looked at Dan and then Rex.

Rex didn't say anything as there was nothing wrong with stopping the heavy breathing technique.

She asked, "Um, am I…"

But even before she could finish saying, Rex said, "Yeah, you are cured."

She smiled when she heard that and in joy, ended up jumping which was quite an unladylike behavior. But for today, that was allowed since she was finally cured of a long threat.

Now it was the princess's turn to be cured. The Queen had earlier asked Rex to cure the princess first, however, Rex had said that he would require some things to be brought because his condition was much more severe and thus it would take time.

But for the Queen, only ten minutes was sufficient and he was right. In fact, he cured her much quicker.

"Now, please, get me an artifact that can give me some amount of life force.", Rex said as he panted.

"Is that necessary to cure her?", Dan asked because there did exist such an artifact but it was super rare and expensive to obtain.

"Y-"

"Yeah…"
