Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 219 Fixing The Heart

When Safa fell to the floor, for a moment it felt like Raze was watching it in slow motion. He saw the muscles relax in her body, as if out of control, swaying against the wind, and heard the sound of a thud as her face slammed then slid on the ground.

He stood there, watching her, his eyes wide open, not knowing what to do.

ʼWhy did that happen? Why did the Qi suddenly move like that, and why would it strike the heart?ʼ Raze thought. ʼThat… didnʼt happen with me. Wait, but I never had a dantian or a Qi core. I had gotten a magic core first; could that be the reason.ʼ

The sound was drawn out around him as Raze was stuck in his thoughts, and before he even reacted, both Simyon and Liam had jumped off their beds. It felt like he was watching a movie, as if he wasnʼt really present at the moment.

He could see Simyon pressing his head up against her chest, while Liam placed his hand under her nose after turning her over to see if she was breathing.

”Raze… Raze… RAZE!” Simyon yelled at the top of his lungs.

The last call had snapped Raze out of it, out of the movie he was watching. He felt as if he was going from bystander to living in the moment now.

”Safa, we canʼt hear her heartbeat, and sheʼs not even moving. What happened? What happened to her? What did you do?” Simyon screamed.

These words, the experience of people shouting at Raze, he had heard it before, and almost trying to turn away from the situation, he looked onto the floor.

ʼBut I was fine… where did this all go wrong?ʼ He thought.

While staring at the ground, Raze noticed something: the five-headed flower. Only one of its heads had disappeared, having broken down into particles. Even now, there was a slight glow around it.

ʼThereʼs no one to stop me this time. I can try and do something.ʼ

Raze tensed his fist, his eyes narrowing as he went into full focus. He bent down, picking up the flower, and quickly rushed to Safaʼs side, placing his hand on top of her chest.

For a moment, Liam was wondering if Raze was trying to finish some type of hit job or whether or not he had made a mistake. But since they had no clue what was going on, he was also the only one who could resolve it.

As Raze closed his eyes, he could sense the magic that was inside her. It was still floating around her heart, condensed. Her heart itself was still in good condition, but a few of the vessels had been torn.

Raze placed the flower on top of her chest and then placed his hand on it as well. He was focusing, trying to feel the light magic. He was trying to imagine reaching out and influencing all of the light magic that was in Safaʼs body.

ʼI canʼt produce any light magic of my own, but I can try and control what is in the plant and already in her body.ʼ

Raze was moving about, controlling as much of it as he could, but there was another issue: what spell was he to use? He taught magic, but in this situation, what exactly was the best spell for him?

He was thinking, but his brain wasnʼt working. Light magic spells were something that he had only really studied, so he didnʼt have the best memory of them.

ʼThink of a word, a trigger, something to use.ʼ

While thinking desperately for an answer, an image of a woman appeared in front of his closed vision, and a voice whispered out.

ʼComplete Restore.ʼ

The voice was soft and gentle, but it reminded Raze of the magic circle formation he needed in his head as he said the words.

”Complete Restore!” he shouted, pouring in all of his magic to move the Light magic. The plant started to disintegrate, and as it did, it started to add to the Light magic that was already around the core. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Before he knew it, the core had become complete, creating a perfect circle around her heart. Soon it lit up, and the damage that had been done from the Qi was restoring parts of the damaged heart from the Qi.

This time, it didnʼt seem like the Qi from the dantian was doing anything either. Perhaps because the person wasnʼt even alive at this point for its body to reject the magic circle.

The heart was going back to full condition, and the glow started to fade. Raze could tell now that the magic core, the Light core, had been completed. The spell was a success, so as he lifted his hands, he was wondering why.

”Why… why didnʼt that work,” Raze mumbled to himself.

”What do you mean didnʼt work?” Simyon said, placing his head down to her chest. It was true; he still couldnʼt hear her heartbeat. At the same time, she still wasnʼt breathing.

”The pills, what about the pills you have, canʼt you use them?” Liam shouted, remembering that they had been used to help Simyon before. Surely, it could do the same in this situation.

”No,” Raze answered. ”Her body, itʼs already healed to full condition. Thereʼs no longer anything wrong with it. Thereʼs nothing to heal, but for some reason her heartʼs not beating.”

The two were left silenced by Razeʼs words; they couldnʼt quite understand. How could Safa have been completely fine one moment, and now had ended up like this? Was there really nothing that they could do?

ʼHahahaha!ʼ A shrieking female voice, not the same as before, echoed in his head. He wasnʼt sure if he had heard this voice before or not, or if it was his subconscious tormenting him for having made this mistake.

ʼHahaha, you avoided death too many times, I tried to protect you all, but look what you went and did.ʼ The voice said, playing in Razeʼs mind.

”Shut up!” Raze called out. ”Shut up! Shut up!”

The voice continued to laugh, with Safaʼs body still lying on the ground.
