Alex concentrated hard to heal Jade’s foot. He was afraid that once virtual-novel.net veins had been harmed by the impact of the Martello Celia, they couldn’t be fully healed. If that were the case, it would significantly affect Jade.
Luckily, under the divine power of the Ultimate Book of Medicine and Jade’s own great recovery powers, the severely wounded foot healed quickly, and the damaged veins recovered in a short time.
“Jade, are you really human?”
Alex squeezed Jade’s fully recovered and, once again, beautiful foot. He activated his primordial eye, checking it thoroughly.
He noticed that other than the healing of virtual-novel.net wounds, the veins on virtual-novel.net foot were slightly different from the average person’s. Moreover, there was a strong flow of weird energy within virtual-novel.net flesh and blood.
Because of this energy, virtual-novel.net was able to heal so quickly. Her healing abilities were as great as Alex’s body, which had True Martial Marrow.
Jade glared at him. “What do you mean? Are you saying that I’m not human?”
Alex shook his head. “I wouldn’t dare! It’s just that there really is something weird with your body. I didn’t notice it the last time I healed your leg, but I could clearly sense it this time. Your body is way better and tougher than the average human. There’s something weird about this.”
Alex grabbed virtual-novel.net foot and looked left and right. He even sniffed it at the end…
“Are you a pervert?!”
Jade stomped onto Alex’s nose, virtual-novel.net face turning red. “That’s enough, my foot is fine. We have to go and save the Emperor.”
Alex massaged his nose. “There’s definitely something weird with your body. I wish I could examine it.”
Jade looked as if virtual-novel.net was ready to kill, so Alex decided to shut up and retrieve the Martello Celia. Since the hammer was forty-five tons, virtual-novel.net needed to activate his Chi to lift it.
However…
“Hmph!”
Alex grunted. It was as if the hammer was glued dead to the ground, and virtual-novel.net couldn’t lift it no matter what. He tried several times, but it still wouldn’t budge. Soon, virtual-novel.net was so tired that virtual-novel.net was out of breath. Nonetheless, virtual-novel.net still couldn’t lift the hammer.
“Huh, what’s going on? Why is this stupid hammer heavier?”
Jade was shocked. “Are you pretending that you can’t lift it? You carried it so easily just now. The hammer wouldn’t gain weight out of nowhere, you know?”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net reached out virtual-novel.net hand and gave it a try. As virtual-novel.net hand grabbed onto the Martello Celia, Jade’s eyes flickered in awe. She’d felt a blood connection to it. Tightening virtual-novel.net grip, virtual-novel.net lifted it with case. She even waved it around a few times. It was as easy as holding a kitchen knife.
“How is it heavier? It’s much lighter, okay?”
“What? It’s lighter?”
“Go on and try if you don’t believe me!”
Jade instantly threw the hammer in Alex’s direction. Alex reached out his hand to catch it, but a tremendous force gushed towards virtual-novel.net and nearly smashed virtual-novel.net to the ground. Fortunately, virtual-novel.net was able to run a few meters out of the way.
Thump!
The Martello Celia landed on the floor and let out a loud thump.
“What’s going on? The hammer… Seemed so light in your hands, but it became extremely heavy when thrown to another person?” Alex was taken aback.
There could only be one explanation for this situation. The Martello Celia had been refined into becoming Jade’s personal weapon.
“It’s… It’s the blood from your foot. It dripped on the hammer, and it accepted you as its owner?!” Alex guessed since that was the only plausible explanation.
“Could it be? But the hammer must’ve killed other people at Rakshasa Temple. It should be used to being in contact with blood… It should’ve had an owner long ago.”
Alex wore a complicated expression. “Maybe, your blood is different. Yours is golden.”
Jade lifted the hammer again. “Hehe! I guess this hammer is destined to be mine. I’ll accept it then. Thank you, my dear disciple, for the gift.”
Alex wanted to cry.
