"Oh, right. You haven't seen me in this form before."

The woman chuckled lightly.

"You know them?"

Reon, who was resting on the bed, opened his eyes and asked.

"Yes. That girl asked me to heal her little sister."

The woman pointed to Aleshia.

"W-Who are you?"

Aleshia stuttered as she asked.

"Ahh! It's so good to finally be able to stand."

To Lawrend and Aleshia's surprise, Reon, who was supposed to be heavily injured, suddenly stood up and stretched his arms.

"Don't be surprised. After all, this woman beside me is the best healer in the Lanshia Province."

Reon introduced the woman beside him with a smile. He was glad that he didn't have to be incapacitated for a long time.

"That's right. I am Healer Natasha, or rather, I am Natasha Jersice, an Arch Mage Healer."

The woman introduced herself proudly as she looked at Aleshia in amusement.

"Y-YOU ARE THAT OLD WOMAN!?"

Aleshia's eyes bulged out in shock. She doesn't look like the same woman from any angle. Just her tall height and her smooth skin right now are a great contrast to what the Healer Natasha she saw back then at the shrine was.

"Rude. You should know that calling a woman 'old' is rude."

Natasha frowned in displeasure at Aleshia's words.

"I-I'm sorry. It's just too surprising."

Aleshia bowed in apology. However, it was still too unbelievable for her.

"Young girl, magic is all-powerful. Watch."

Natasha lectured Aleshia. Then her body suddenly changed form. Her smooth skin turned wrinkly, her hair whitened, her height decreased, and her curvy figure disappeared.

"Yuck. Stop transforming to your old figure when I'm here. It's so creepy."

Reon complained in displeasure.

"Hah? Do you want me to reverse my healing on your body?"

Natasha turned her head to Reon and gave him a glare that made chills run down his spine.

"N-No."

Reon responded nervously. Natasha is a strong healer. She can freely manipulate her healing capabilities to the point that she can even reverse them. If being healed feels good, then being reverse healed feels very painful. He wouldn't even dare try it as a joke.

"Then shut up."

Natasha said to him ferociously. She then turned her head to Aleshia before speaking.

"See?"

After saying so, her body returned to her youthful appearance. It was like what they saw earlier was just their imagination.

"That's so amazing…"

Lawrend murmured as he looked at her in a daze. He was once again reminded of how powerful magic is.

"Boy, this is just the tip of an iceberg. Once you see how capable the greatest healer of our continent is, you'll be more surprised."

Natasha smirked at Lawrend. She doesn't consider her powers that strong because there are people out there that she could only look up to.

"Why tell him that so soon? Are you trying to discourage him from learning magic?"

Reon interjected. He looked at her with a frown. Suddenly being presented with the top may easily make someone feel they are insufficient. Thus, they lose all of their motivation.

"No, Guild Master! Her words made me more determined to learn magic."

Lawrend answered in Natasha's stead.

"Good boy. I like you."

Natasha smiled happily after hearing Lawrend's words. This was her intention for Lawrend to become more motivated to learn magic.

"Hahaha, Thank you for the compliment."

Lawrend laughed embarrassedly as he scratched his cheeks.

"Young Master…"

Aleshia couldn't help but frown after hearing Lawrend's words. She turned her head to Natasha's bountiful breast and down to her own. She felt like she was lacking.

"Oh my. Don't worry, young girl. I won't take your Young Master from you."

Natasha noticed Aleshia's eye movements with her sharp eyes. She immediately realized what was going on.

"I-"

Aleshia didn't know what to say. Natasha just read her mind. She opened and closed her mouth, but she couldn't come up with a suitable response.

"Anyway, what's that slime doing in your arms?"

Reon couldn't help but ask. Lawrend had been holding a slime in his arms for so long now.

"He's my pet slime. He is very cute."

Lawrend answered. He patted Allen to show that he was really his pet.

"A pet slime? Talents sure are eccentric."

Reon said in confusion. He also knew other talented people who have eccentric hobbies, and now Lawrend is on that list.

"Huh?"

Lawrend blinked his eyes repeatedly. Did Reon just accept the fact that he was weird? He didn't know what to feel after knowing that.

"Forget it. I called you here because I want to send you to the capital."

Reon shook his head before informing Lawrend about his decision.

"What?"

Lawrend widened his eyes in shock. He was just preparing to go to the Great Njiro Forest, and now the Guild Master is saying that he should go to the capital instead. What was he gonna do there?

"I'm afraid you don't have much of choice. Your safety is my top priority. I'm sure that demon will be back to get you."

Reon shook his head. He can see from Lawrend's eyes that he was against the idea.

"The demon didn't die?"

Lawrend was surprised. That explosion was so strong. She would have surely been badly hurt, and they would have been able to easily capture her then.

"Sadly, her body is still not found. There's a good chance that she already escaped."

Reon explained to Lawrend. It may have just been a few hours, but that was already enough time for her to make her escape, even if she was badly injured.

"So I'm going to the capital so I can be protected by the experts there?"

Lawrend guessed from his words.

"Correct."

Reon nodded his head.

"But first, I need to go back to Lanika City. I have a deal to complete."

Lawrend said to Reon before glancing at Aleshia at the end of his words and gave her a smile.

"That's not a problem. I'll send a High Mage with you. He'll escort you to the Capital City."

Reon replied. He was not worried about this arrangement.
