Death… And Me

Chapter 3425: Might Pull It Off

Saria took a deep breath and calmed down. If she gets shocked every time Rean does something unbelievable, then she might feel shocked for the rest of her life. ”Okay... but an arm can’t just regrow from nothing. Do you want me to reattach it?”

She could regrow or reattach body parts, just like Rean. It’s just that with her healing skills, that would take quite a while.

Rean simply destroyed that arm he cut off, though. ”No, make a new one grow for me. Don’t worry,” he then took one of Roan’s nutrient pills and tossed it in his mouth, ”You will have the nutrients necessary to make it regrow.”

Saria wondered if Rean was crazy or something. ’Perhaps it is because he has gone to such extents with his own body that his healing skills are so good,’ she thought to herself. ”Okay, please hold.”

The disciple, on the other hand... ’I better not get involved with him. This guy is nuts!’

”Ah!” It was then that Rean remembered something, pulling back. ”I almost forgot you still haven’t passed your test. And here I am, wasting your time. Do you want to buy a Sect Pass first?”

Saria stepped forward and grabbed Rean again. ”No need. There is a lot of time still, and I already have the points to buy some of the cheap passes. Now, let me do my part so I won’t owe you anything.”

’Light Cell Ressurection...’

Both her bloodline and her own control of the Light Element came forward as her Light Element gathered around the injury where Rean’s arm was before. Rean watched with his Divine Sense as Saria’s skill acted on his cells and the nutrients being transferred from the pill to the injury.

’Hum... so that’s how her bloodline takes part in the process,’ Rean thought and continued to watch. ’Her bloodline is truly related to light itself. Each of her cells seems to carry Light Element... No, that’s not entirely correct. It is better to say that the Light Element is part of what constitutes her cells.’

Even though Rean thought that, it didn’t mean only the elves had Light Element in the composition of their bodies. Pretty much all races had all elements in their composition. Even Devils had Light Element to some extent, although in their case, the Light Element in their bodies was many, many times less than Dark Element, for example.

The only exceptions were probably some Spirit Races, and there weren’t many of them to start with. Of course, there were probably some other different demon beast or humanoid races with specific constitutions that also didn’t need Light Element, but those would be even rarer and far, far in between.

The difference here was that Saria’s Elf Race carried much, much more Light Element in their cells than any average race. The angels from Lisan could be said to be the closest to what Saria had, but they still lacked somewhat. For example, the angels’ light element wasn’t as pure as Rean’s back then, and that said a lot about Saria’s Elf Race’s bloodline.

The more Rean saw his arm regrowing, the more he understood how her bloodline worked. ”Well, let’s discuss it now. Your bloodline cells have a lot of Light Element. Yet, that is not really what makes your race’s Light Element so pure. Instead, it is how the Light Element works inside every cell of your body. Correct me if I’m wrong. It seems your cells take Light Element as a vital part of their structure. Well, pretty much all races do, but your cells go to a much greater extent. It is like the Light Element is another chromosome of your cell. The cells aren’t just holding light element inside; they simply can’t work without it to start with.”

Saria looked at Rean in surprise, even stopping her healing for a second. ”You can tell that much? No, you must have researched us before, didn’t you?”

Rean shook his head. ”If I had, why would I waste my time making such questions? I’m pretty sure that your race’s abilities have been researched time and time again. This is truly my first time seeing an elf and experiencing an elf’s bloodline. It’s just that I would rather ask you directly than see it through a report. I work better when I’m in direct contact with whatever I’m handling.”

Saria had to admit Rean was right. What he said wasn’t any secret to start with.

Rean continued. ”Going back to the main topic. Since the Light Element itself is such an important piece of what constitutes your body, it also made your race evolve towards the usage of this Element. The degree of Light Element Purity you can achieve to match me is mainly due to this property of your bloodline. I would say your race is one with Light Element. It is not as simple as just being a necessary Element for your existence.”

Saria nodded. ”You nailed it. Light Element is indeed a big part of what an elf is. You were also correct to say that our Light Element Purity was an evolutionary consequence of our race’s existence as a whole. But so what? Is that of any use for you? You don’t have an elf bloodline anyway. Wait! Are you thinking about having a kid with an elf for that reason?”

”You can’t be seriously asking that...” Rean didn’t know whether to laugh or cry there. ”Did you hear anything I said earlier? I’m a married man, okay? Also, why would I need to have a kid with an elf to get the bloodline? Did you forget? My Light Element Purity is already at the same level as yours. I wouldn’t gain anything from it.”

”Well...” Saria looked sideways. ”Perhaps I’m thinking too much.”

Rean smiled. ”Anyway, I don’t need your elf bloodline to use Light Element to this level of purity. However, I can use what I learned today to improve my own bloodline. Thank you. I think I know how to make my own cells evolve so that Light Element will also become one with them.”

”Hahaha!” Saria couldn’t help but laugh. ”That’s a good joke. As if it was that simp-” She didn’t finish her words, though. By looking at Rean’s confident expression, something told her he might truly pull it off somehow.
