Chapter 104 - Injury

As 4 women appeared, Emilia's daughters come to greet her

"Mother, you look so happy… is something "good" that happened tonight? Can I hear some details?" Said Emma cheeky as she held her mother's hand.

Emilia looked at her older daughter before giving her a straight answer.

"What do you want me to say, my little daughter? How did he make me lay on the table before starting to suck the soul out of me? Or how I was ravished with his huge 'sword' for the entire night until I couldn't even stand? You will not hold such intensity for too long, my dear. The weird thing is that I am even telling such details of my private life to my daughter… But since my two daughters and I are married to one person, it's fine. Either way, It was the best night of my life. I'm sorry, Ronald, you were a good husband and father and have died as such, but compared to Vincent, you are just… not fitting to take care of us. I'm glad that your genes were good enough that allows me to give birth to such lovely daughters, and I will be forever thankful to you for them. Rest in peace… Let your next life will be much luckier and allow you to meet a worthy woman that will make you happy…" Emilia answered before lowering her head as she remembered her 1st husband who died more than 2 years ago.

"Yes… Father was just not fitting to have family in this filthy world. So many families in our hometown were eradicated by simple injustices just by having bad luck for meeting the wrong people and being at the wrong place and time," Added Emily as she too remembered her father and how her schoolmate's families meet their doom for no fucking reason.

Even her family was one of them, but they were luckier, they had someone like Vincent.

"If the real god exists, then he is probably quite an evil bastard, or he can see a much bigger picture that we humans can't even imagine," Said Emma with a wondrous voice.

This was the main reason why they all wanted to create their own place with only their family and their people, where any person is fully loyal to them, so they could safely and calmly raise their Mayers family with Vincent in the lead.

Suddenly, Vincent's crimson red eyes narrowed.

The girls saw how he raised his right hand as it began to release a crackling sound before he pointed into the forest.

*Boom!*

*Boom!!*

*Sound of burning tree*

*Sound of flying scattered ground*

A tiny finger-sized white colored lightning bolt was shot out as it almost instantly hit the pointed leafless tree, penetrating it like butter, making it burn in a bright red fire while a tiny hole could be seen on its trunk. The ground 7-10 meters behind the tree was blown up and scattered in every direction.

Such destruction is only from a tiny lightning bolt that Vincent casually created and launched.

In those two years, Vincent already was almost prepared for creating Lightning Element by many tests of mixing and compressing Fire and Light elements. The only thing he lacked was the advance to 3rd rank of his Fire and Light Element Essence Sources.

" 'Dear' guests, why don't you greet us instead of hiding? I'm in a good mood today so you better come out on your own as I'm asking you peacefully so don't force me to go for you first or your heads will end just like that tree," said Vincent calmly as his "Aura Detection" spell that was simply just his "ACA" noticed a few hidden figures behind the trees at 70 meters.

His "ACA" contained 7 different kinds of them in it (6 different Elements and WE) and was a few times stronger than others, so they could fool them, but not him.

The girls around Vincent were shivered by his sudden action and words, but as they saw how confident and calm her husband's/master's voice was and how he calmly stood in front of them, they also calmed down.

"Vincent… your hand… Annie, quick, heal him!" Anna, who was the closest, worriedly said as she saw how his right hand bore the usage of Lightning Element for the first time.

"It's fine, my love, calm down. Only a few people in this world can match my regeneration. This… is temporary." slightly waved his left hand at his wives to reassure them that he is fine, as he saw how Emilia's and Bella's eyes were already wet from uncontrolled tears.

' I again made them worried…'

They both were already thinking that they were pregnant, so seeing the father of their future children be harmed makes their hearts ache in pain.

"M-master… A-are you alright?!" Selena quickly arrived near Vincent, looking scared for his well-being, even knowing that this injury should be treated since he so casually received it.

Skylar also doesn't like to see the man she fell for to be in pain, but she didn't move, since his face demonstrates that he… felt no pain?!

Even an elven girl, Demi, who still has very mixed feelings, felt her heart skip a beat.

Vincent curiously looked at his right hand, as if he really didn't feel any pain from it.

Of course, he felt it, but he knew how not to show it, not to worry his loved ones.

His right hand was completely skinless until the elbow, with almost no flesh on it. Only bloody bones and some bits of charred flesh, while blood was dripping on the snow.

He could already inhale the badly burned meat's scent.

If he had summoned a bit bigger and stronger lightning, then his hand would highly probably not hold it and would be burned until only dust would be left, without a chance of recovering.

At least for a long time.

'This is the reason why I need to temper my body with various elements to reduce the damage taken and increase my resistance in using my own or taking damage of those elements from others. I would rather not use external tools that mostly mages use that could take on all the burden of using these dangerous elements as a mediator. Even so, such a tool lasts only a few uses before breaking,' thought Vincent as he remembered some useful information about mages from a lecture at Zert's Magic School in Bern town.

He cast "Advanced Regeneration" which boosted his cell regeneration, and "Flesh regeneration" which accelerated the flesh growth. These two spells were quite unique and created with Water Element in the core of it and a Light element as support.

Moreover, Annie had already begun to use her new quality healing on him as she worriedly looked at his hand.

' How can he be so emotionless after such an injury? ' Thought Annie, as she noticed Emily, Emily was also a healer, but weaker than Annie. Selena and other girls have also arrived to use their healing on his hand. Demi was especially active in healing him.

Meanwhile, as he received healing, a few figures with long silver hair appeared from behind the trees…
