Anubis healed Nathan’s injury in a breeze, which surprised Bella.
“This is…” Bella widened her eyes in shock. “Your healing power… How do you even do that? This level of healing ability is not normal.”
Bella didn’t expect that a wound that normally took a few days to heal would be gone in just a few seconds.
“What?” Nathan tilted his head in confusion. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. This is normal.”
“This is not normal. Do you know that my healing ability is considered quite strong? Normally, someone with a healing ability can close the wound in less than a minute with that amount of Ena.
“However, your familiar’s healing ability not only closes the wound but also restores the inside, such as muscles and organs. It’s as if he’s turning back in time. No, it’s more like he’s reincarnating those dead cells!”
“Is that so?” Nathan played dumb, thinking this was Anubis’ power. He was a god, so it was to be expected. And it wasn’t like his current healing ability was already in its peak form.
At the same time, there was no way he could tell them about him being a divine beast. So he just turned to Anubis and said, “You are good, aren’t you, buddy?”
“Hmph!” Anubis harrumphed proudly. “Anyway, since you’re fine now, I’ll return.”
“Yep!” Nathan nodded.
“And it spoke clearly. Even lower level humanoid familiars like goblins couldn’t talk…” Bella looked at Nathan. The more she knew him, the more mysterious he became.
Bella inhaled her tobacco to calm her down before saying, “Have you shown it to anyone else?”
“Other than my close ones, not really.” Nathan shook his head. The only time he showed it was when healing the villagers, but that should be fine.
“That’s good. Don’t show it casually.” Bella nodded. “If your healing ability is known by a lot of people, there’s a chance you will be targeted.”
Before Nathan could reply, Evelyn’s voice echoed in the room. “It doesn’t really matter. He is already being targeted.”
“!!!” Both Bella and Nathan turned around, finding Evelyn leaning on the wall while crossing her arms. “Evelyn. Are you done with the meeting?”
“Yes.” Evelyn nodded casually and walked to Nathan. “You have been targeted, simply because your familiars are weird. This fact will change the world in the long run.
“For example, they will be speculating about what kind of human you are. If they know about your naughty tendency, they will consider you a threat.”
“Isn’t it a natural trait? If that is evil, I’d rather become a villain!” Nathan frowned.
“I’m not talking about that.” Evelyn shook her head. “Someone like you won’t have the chance to lead a normal love life. A single wife is impossible, even if you desire it.
“After all, there’s a possibility of your bloodline changing this world. What if the children carrying your bloodlines have the ability to summon beasts?
“Your bloodline itself will become a household thing, which will be desired by a lot of people, especially after it’s proven.
“In that case, there is only one more bloodline that can be considered special. It’s the bloodline that can summon a human. freёwebnoѵel.com
“Even if that human can’t become a beacon in this world, what about breeding? What if the humans you summon are actually human gods? It will change everything practically.”
Nathan looked down, falling into deep thought. She definitely brought up a good point.
“If they learn about you being a pervert, they will assume that you will have a lot of wives… and probably mistresses. What if the people are drugging you just to steal your seed? When that happens, I don’t know if that change will bring good things or bad things.”
“Do I look like someone like that?” Nathan’s eyebrows twitched. He felt insulted. Even he wouldn’t do it with anyone for a one-night stand or something. He still had his principles.
“That’s exactly my point. Nobody cares about it. That’s why you’re already on their list, whether you like it or not.”
“So, what am I supposed to do?”
“Nothing. If they’re coming to you, it’ll be much easier for us to catch them.”
“Oh. You accept me to be your bait?” Nathan frowned.
“I told you already. I accepted you because of your brain. Even if you become a bait, you will find a way to take care of it, making sure you survive. My order is simple. Use your wisdom and trick the enemy into coming to you. If you need anyone, just tell me about it.
I’ll send a reinforcement for you.”
Nathan crossed his arms. “I see. In that case, should I find out about the hidden spy in the academy?”
“If you can do that, that’ll be good. If you can’t, then it’s better to focus elsewhere.”
“Elsewhere? Do you have any information about their location?”
“Not really, but if you go on a mission that is actually cooperating with other academies, there’s a chance they will come.”
“!!!” Nathan widened his eyes, understanding that meaning. “So other academies are experiencing the same thing.”
“That’s how it is. For now, go back to your academy and just continue searching for us. Don’t make any suspicious moves to avoid their suspicion.”
“Understood. However, I have promised them to find you guys. However, you can continue this operation for the time being. And once we find out the culprit, I can take care of the aftermath,” explained Nathan.
“Alright. I’ll go along with your plan.” Evelyn nodded. “I will create a hidden teleportation in your bathroom. If you need anything, just send a message from there. I’ll also send information through that teleportation circle and a mission, if there’s any.”
“Got it.” Nathan wanted to be bold, but it seemed he hadn’t gained their full trust. For the time being, he had to be patient.
Evelyn pointed her palm forward. The air suddenly cracked. When it collapsed, there was a void on the other side of the crack.
“In that case, let’s go.”
