I Shall Evolve Everything

Chapter 42 Recuperating

?While Tama was carrying me back to the house where I could rest and recuperate in a more comfortable environment, I was desperately

trying to heal my spine.

The Lucky thing was that I had pathways in my back otherwise I wouldn't have been able to heal without my hands touching my back.

…

After a bit of time being carried by Tama I was unceremoniously plopped on my bed. By that point I had started to regain some feeling in my body, however I wasn't able to move anything yet, still paralyzed.

Tama had already left me to myself, taking Aoif with her.

There was no doubt that Aoif was angered over what had happened to me, I could practically feel the rage oozing off of her.

Whatever she did to the prisoners I didn't care, as long as she could blow off some steam then that would make me happy.

…

I woke up expecting to be captured but instead saw the face of Tama staring down in concern.

"Where is Darwin?" I ground out.

"My Lord is safe, he is currently healing upstairs." Tama answers and before I could storm upstairs to check on him and stay by his side, I see the assailants that had attacked us, more specifically the one that had crippled Darwin and red filled my vision.

Tama who saw the rage in my eyes let down the one that I was hatefully glaring at.

"We only need one to interrogate, do what you want with that one" A disinterested snarl appeared on her face.

Nodding at that I drag the one that crippled Darwin out of the house all the while finding my dagger and taking it with me.

"Oh and don't worry about restraining them I've already taken care of that" a cruel smile appeared on her face showing Tama's fangs, "have fun"

…

Once we were in a suitable corner of the territory where the screams wouldn't be heard too much I unmasked the assailant.

What I found was a pretty face, short green hair in a bob cut and long ears.

Her eyes were closed and it was a her no guy could have that big of a bust and that pretty of a face.

*BANG*

With a mighty slap I woke her up.

"Uhhh" a groan came out of her mouth as she woke from her sleep.

A grunt of exertion was heard as she tried to slip free of some invisible chains.

I take the knife to her skin and with the sharp end start dragging it down her arm.

The sight of another's blood made me slightly squeamish but the rage of almost losing Darwin overpowered that.

I couldn't think of any worse death other than death by thousand cuts.

So I kept cutting, little by little small wounds were drawn onto her once flawless skin.

…

There was no part of her skin that I hadn't yet cut but her natural healing ability kept her alive.

So it was a blood soaked me that Darwin walked in on. Apparently I had been so engrossed in the melodious screams of our little prisoner that I hadn't noticed that Darwin had fully healed himself.

I turn to him with a wide grin on my face.

"The blood isn't mine by the way"

I could feel his relief. Hearing that it wasn't mine must have relieved his worry. As I could feel the rapidly growing panic dissipate.

Only for it to grow again when I started to limp over to him, my legs not having healed from the previous battle.

Immediately Darwin rushed to me holding me still on the ground then with a flourish of his aether my legs were completely healed.

Wiggling them around a bit I feel no pain.

I give Darwin a blood soaked smile.

*Grateful*

*Happy*

I sent those emotions through my soul hoping that our shared vision will help him pick up my soul's emotions.

*Happy*

'It worked' I knew it was possible, if Darwin was able to see souls like I could then he should be able to see the emotions of souls too.

"Tama got some information from the elf that we captured"

"Elf?" I question, "Those are real?"

Nodding his head Darwin starts to explain,

"Yeah Tama was able to extract some information from the captured elf, turns out that they were sent here from one of the middle realms to scout and recruit."

"If they were here to scout and recruit, why did they attack us?"

"It seems that they deemed us a threat seeing how much we had built so they struck to capture and kill if anything went wrong, luckily they didn't account for the combat power of Tama."

…

It was a good 3 or 4 hours of healing where my spine was being gradually healed.

While my pathways did go across my back they barely touched the spine so I had to circulate my aether to that spot, use it then circulate it again.

That was why it took so long for me to heal my spine.

If I had been able to directly heal it, it would have only taken a couple of minutes at most but because of that it took hours.

However once I regained feeling in my spine everything started to speed up. Gradually the nerve endings were fixed.

This was the first time I was fixing nerve endings and it was excruciatingly painful.

Each ending needed to be reconnected back in the proper place and the blow to my spine had done more than just destroy it. It had completely twisted the nerve ending so once I had feeling again I could feel every single one reconnecting into their right places.

That last 2 or 3 hours was hell.

But finally after getting through that painful experience I could walk again.

…

Once I had enough power to get up I headed downstairs to find the sight of what looked like a drunk elf crying out her grievances to an awkward looking Tama.
