64 Please heal me

When Leon snapped out his thoughts, he realized he was making a very scary face in front of Lina, which made her seem frightened.

"Sorry." He smiled awkwardly.

"I-It's fine..." Lina replied in very soft mumbled voice with her head down. She was startled Leon could have such a scary expression.

She was just concerned about him. If he didn't want to talk about what happened, then he doesn't have to. There's no need to give her such a look, right? She felt a bit wronged, but being the older one, she thought she should be more open-minded and bicker with him.

Their small talk descended into silence. Leon inspected the state of his body in detail and gave a self-depreciating smile.

The healing pills did not heal his body well. He could still feel the medicinal efficiency working on his body, but the recovery rate was slow. He suffered too many wounds. Tier 1 healing pills weren't effective enough for him.

"Do you have my bag?" He suddenly asked.

"Yeah... but what do you want to do with the empty bag?"

"Oh...never mind." Leon lapsed into silence. He was going to use the bag as a pretense to take out some Golden Ointment from his world space to rub on his external wounds. But since his bag had been searched, he dropped the idea. He didn't want to deal with troublesome explanations.

"You bandaged me pretty well." Leon suddenly complimented. Due to suffering wounds to various parts of his body, he was wrapped up like a mummy.

"Thank you..." Lina flushed with embarrassment at his compliment. She had to remove his clothes in order to bandage all his wounds.

She was drawn to his body, while she was bandaging him. She wasn't sure if it was because she was already attracted to him or curiosity towards the body of the opposite sex.

His body wasn't big, but he was tall and lean. His muscles seemed lacking, but they were packed with power underneath.

She couldn't help but touch and roam his body a bit. It was like the devil's whisper when no one would know what she would do.

Mia was relieved when someone was willing save her big brother. She was struck with weariness after her relief and fell asleep as soon as she hit the bed.

If Mia had suddenly woke up and saw how she was touching Leon, she would want to find a hole to hide in.

If Mia said something like "Big sister is perverted," It would have been the finishing blow and she would never crawl out. But that is all just a what if.

Her guilty conscience made her heartbeat quicken when the bandaging was mentioned.

Leon didn't know his body was taken advantage of and just thought his teacher was not used to taking compliments.

"Umm... I don't really know how to control my ability yet..." Lina bit her lips. She would have done it if she could. Did he think she like seeing him in such a horrible state?

She had only recently awakened and had not received prior training or knowledge.

There wasn't any reason to as it was public knowledge that those who drink the Water of Absolute Nothingness could never awaken for the rest of their lives so her parents never taught her when she was younger.

Leon seem to have forgotten that everyone else did not have a strong soul and powerful divine sense ability like him. It might be easy for him to use his ability upon awakening due to it and his 2 dozen odd years of playing with fire, but the same could not be said for the others.

They had to learn and practice their ability slowly like normal first-time awakeners would. What he asked was a bit insensitive.

"I'm sorry... that was insensitive of me..." Leon apologized.

"It's fine... My father or mother might have been able to help... but their abilities have been sealed." Lina tried to appear nonchalant to hide what was on her mind. She wished Leon could cure her parents, but it was inappropriate to ask with his present condition.

"I can go cure them now but how will you repay me after?" Leon said with a teasing tone and hidden implications in his words. He sensed her unnatural behavior and figured what was on her mind. Her expressions were quite cute. It was at least better than when she is in teacher mode.

"No way... how could I make you do that?" Her face grew red. She could sense his teasing tone. Was this considered flirting? Did Leon like her?

He had flirted subconsciously when he found her cute. His old habits from his past life seems to be kicking in after he losing his self-restraint to a passionate session with Lynne.

It was like being a virgin again. The impulse was hard to control after tasting it once and would make him lust for more.

There was a myth that for every year men abstained from sex; they regain back one year of virginity. If he went by this saying, then he could indeed have been regarded as a virgin up until that point.

Suddenly remembering about Lynne and that she was probably still waiting for him to visit her, his head cooled.

It was already late, and he didn't know if the Grey family sent anyone else after him when they figured out their steward was dead. Lynne would have to be disappointed.

"Don't worry, it's also for my sake." The sooner he was fully recovered, the better he can adapt to further unforeseen circumstances.

"That's great! Let's get started right away." At this moment, Lina's father and mother barged into her room and said.

"Mom! Dad! Why are you still awake at this hour? Having you been eavesdropping outside the whole time!?" Lina was stunned before she interrogated them angrily.

"Hohoho...How can we be at ease when you bring an unconscious boy home, all bloodied and stay in the same room? We naturally had to see if anything was going on." Lina's father said straightforwardly, admitting to the eavesdropping.

"I.... You.... What did you think was going to happen?"

"The matters between men and women of course. Why else did you bring him to your room? Can't you just settle him on the couch outside? Clearly this boy means something to you." Her mother answered as she looked at Leon like she was looking at a son-in-law. 16 was the marriageable age among noble daughters, but her daughter was already 24!She was worried that no one fancied her daughter.

Although it wasn't the scenario they anticipated, her daughter had brought someone home in the end.

"What??? How can you say that in front of him, mom!" Lina was upset. She felt like her parents was sabotaging her relationship instead of helping her. Did they forget there was also a child in the room? What would Leon think of her? She panicked.

"Shh, Mia is sleeping."

All eyes focused on Leon.

"Uh... Hi Uncle and Auntie...I need acupuncture needles for the treatment." Leon was startled when they all focused their attention on him with such scrutiny.

"No problem. You can use my set of needles." Lina's father stated. He was a local physician who specialized in acupuncture after he could no longer serve in the army. He had suffered various degrees of injuries on the frontline and had a good understanding of the human body as a result. He relied on his acupuncture skills to bring home the bread and butter for the family.

"Oh? Alright." Leon was surprised her father had a set of acupuncture needles but didn't put too much thought into it. The Greene family was still a noble family no matter how much they have declined.

"What do we have to do?"

"Just standing there is fine."

"Alright. Let me see your skills, boy." Although Lina's father, Robert didn't doubt Leon's acupuncture skills as his daughter was the best proof, he still had to see it for himself.

Leon was evidently much stronger than the time he cured Lina. Although he wasn't in 100% condition, he did not have to expend much effort to unblock Robert's and Lina's mother, Aisha's pores and draw out the devouring parasite demon in their body.

Robert and Aisha did not get to see the devouring parasite before Leon reduced them to dust with ease. Although they devour all forms of energy, there was a limit as to how much they could devour with their minuscule size. Leon burned them both to death.

Robert's and Aisha's empty wood seed was much larger than Lina. Unlike her, they were powerful 7th and 6th step awakeners respectively before their ability was sealed. After they were completely freed from the curse that plagued then for 17 odd years, their bodies automatically drawn in the wood elements from the surrounding like hungry gods.

Leon benefited a bit from the wood element drawn to Robert and Aisha as it had some small recovery effect on him.

Robert's strength recovered to the 4th step in a short time before the process slowed down due a lack of wood element in the surrounding.

"Hahaha! Very impressive! You have done the Greene family a great favor, Boy! Say, how should we repay you?" Robert was exuberant.
