As seconds turned into minutes, her heart recovered more and more.
While Es was feeling happy and relieved by this, Max was inwardly frowning, and by the ti her heart healed completely, his frown had beco visible on his face.
"Thirty percent."
He muttered.
"What?" Es asked,
Max took a deep breath and explained, "It took three-tenths of the total produced energy to heal your heart. It seems we need to do it a couple of tis before your physical injuries are fully healed."
Es blushed like a ripe tomato.
"We… can do that, my Lord, but I have a suggestion." She said, shyly looking at him.
"Hm, what is it?" Max asked, still in thought.
"As you'd told before, it seems your current realm is limiting the potential of this energy. If you were stronger, this energy would have been more potent. So, why don't you use this remaining energy? It shouldn't take you more than a day to reach the peak of the Four Star."
She suggested before adding in a low voice, "If we do it then, the produced energy would be at least two parts more potent."
(A/N: Two Parts → 20%)
"I was thinking the sa." Max smiled at her, "But let's heal your other organs a little first. I don't want you feeling the pain when we do it again."
Saying this, he started directing the Nascent Energy toward her lungs, liver, and other organs.
Two long hours later, all her inner organs had recovered by 30%. Now, she was no longer in any imdiate danger and wasn't feeling as much pain as before either.
Max absorbed the remaining Nascent Energy, and after giving her tantalizing lips a kiss, he sat down cross-legged and said,
"I'm going to cultivate. You rest for a while and then go out. Gene must be getting worried. Also… accompany my family."
Es smiled beautifully when he kissed her, but when she heard his words, her smile slowly receded, and she nodded, "I understand."
Max closed his eyes and brought a strand of Nascent Energy into his core. Slowly, it was assimilated into his core's mana.
Max almost trembled in joy when he saw his refined mana had increased by almost a hundred units.
He then assessed how much Nascent Energy he had.
'I should easily reach peak Four Star with this much.' He thought and started cultivating.
anwhile, Es stayed put for a while. When she felt Max was engrossed in cultivation, she slowly stood up from the bed with the bedsheet wrapped around her graceful body.
When she took the first step toward the attached bathroom, she felt her pussy sting and blushed.
Looking at him, she thought to herself, 'If he… did like this knowing I was injured, how will he treat when I'm fully recovered?'
She gulped her saliva nervously at the thought, a shiver running down her spine that made her pussy tingle in… anticipation.
Embarrassed by the fact that she was feeling this way, she hurried to the bathroom.
Since her dantian was damaged, she could barely use her mana; otherwise, she wouldn't have needed to take a bath.
After half an hour, she walked out of the bathroom, dressed in a light blue dress, looking refreshed.
She helplessly shook her head when she saw him sitting there stark naked and walked out of the room.
…
Creak!
Gene was nervously waiting outside when she heard the doors creak. She imdiately rushed over and waited for them to open.
"W-Whoa! Who are you, lady?" She asked in surprise when she saw the young and beautiful woman appear in front of her.
But on a closer look, she looked familiar.
Just when she thought this, the woman pouted her lips in mock dissatisfaction. "Don't tell you no longer recognize your Granny, Little Gene?"
"WHAT?!"
Gene's eyes widened when she heard the familiar voice.
She then took another look at her.
Her hair and eyes were similar to everyone's in their family, her body shape was also familiar, and her voice was almost exactly the sa as her granny's, but her face—it was completely different.
"Y-You are Granny?" She asked to confirm.
"Of course." Es smiled.
Whoosh!
Gene lunged forward and hugged her tightly while crying out, "Granny!"
Es flinched in pain from the impact, but there was a smile on her face as she caressed her back. "I'm sorry for worrying you so much."
Gene kept her face buried in her chest and sobbed in relief, "I'm so happy you are healthy again."
It took Es a while to calm Gene down.
"How do you look so…" Gene muttered, looking at her changed face.
"...Different?" Es asked with a smile.
"No," Gene shook her head, "I ant beautiful."
Es blushed before coughing lightly to regain her composure and told Gene her history.
After hearing this, Gene frowned and asked, "Then why did you recover your face now?"
Ba-Dum!
Es's heart skipped a beat before she hurriedly said, "Well, when Max healed , the spell ca undone."
Hearing her ntion Max, she finally rembered him and looked toward the door, which Es had closed after her, and said, "He really healed you like he said he would. I have to thank him."
Es beca flustered when she saw her step toward the door and hurriedly pulled her back.
"H-He is exhausted and needs to rest right now. So, let's not bother him. You can thank him later, okay?"
"Oh? Okay." Gene nodded before asking, "But why are you so flustered, Grandma? Your face is completely red."
"Oh, this. Maybe it's because I still haven't properly recovered." Es gave her an excuse and thereby revealed to her that she wasn't completely healed yet.
Gene beca worried upon hearing this. So, Es smiled and ruffled her head, "No need to worry, little Gene. My L-grandson, Max, will slowly heal ."
Her face turned beet red after her fumble, and she hoped Gene would overlook it.
Fortunately for her, while Gene raised her brows in suspicion and thought about why she was being weird, she was too relieved and happy to hear that Max could help her recover completely, so she didn't dwell upon it.
Seeing this, Es sighed in relief and then asked, her expression turning somber, "What happened after I lost consciousness? How is the Garfield family?"
