Gazing at Kael's battered body, Atticus acted immediately. With a thought, air enveloped Kael, lifting him up and away from the lodged wall and setting him down gently.
Atticus approached and instantly fed him a high grade healing potion. Then, shifting his concentration, a bubble of water enveloped Kael and immediately started healing him.
'Did I go too far?' Atticus wondered briefly, but he dismissed the thought immediately. After a year spent with Kael, he knew that not using his full power would only be an insult to the boy.
Seconds passed quickly, and as though a switch had been flipped, Kael's eyes snapped open within the bubble of water.
Seeing this, Atticus released his control, allowing Kael to gradually sit upright.
Kael placed his hands on his stomach where Atticus had punched him, an overwhelming pain racking his senses. However, despite the pain, there was not a single ripple of discomfort on his face.
