The eminence of a true king

Ningguang House.

In the simple, leaky hut, conditions in all aspects were very poor. The woman lying on the bed was pale, and there was no man in the family.

"This is very serious."

Leon said with a solemn expression.

"Where is your father?"

"He was... killed by a monster last year."

"Seriously, I'm sorry, I'll help you heal your mother now."

Then Leon's magic gathered. A complex magic circle suddenly appeared on the ground, and the enormous magic power was transformed into rich vitality, which was injected into Ningguang's mother's body.

Ningguang was stunned. She was a perceptive girl and saw that Leon was using the most advanced sacred healing technique.

It is said to be the most advanced healing magic that can save a person's life even if they have severed limbs and only one last breath.

She was a little unsteady on her feet for a while.

Just asking a noble to use the simplest healing technique requires hundreds of gold coins. This holy healing technique might not be enough even if he sells himself.

"Um?"

On the other side, Leon frowned.

Although there are no high-tech instruments in this world that can examine the body, magical power can achieve the same effect. At this moment, Ningguang's mother's body is full of her magical power.

Leon knew the condition immediately.

"Your mother's situation is a little special. Have you invited others to perform healing magic many times in the past?"

"Yes, yes, about seven times."

"Seven times?"

Upon hearing what Ningguang said, Leon couldn't help but widen his eyes with a surprised expression.

The amount of money needed for seven full treatments was undoubtedly an astronomical sum for a commoner, but in truth, it was something a little girl could earn.

She definitely has a talent for making money.

It is a shame.

The money that Ningguang tried his best to earn could only help his mother survive. Healing magic could only heal the wounds and restore the spirit, but it could not cure the tumors in the body.

The medical skills in this world are really low.

"Unfortunately, your mother's illness cannot be cured by healing magic."

"Why, how could this happen..."

Leon told the girl the truth.

After hearing this, Ningguang suddenly leaned forward and knelt on the ground, his red eyes filled with tears.

In fact, Ningguang knew that there were many illnesses in the world that could not be cured by magic, and she also guessed that this was probably the case with her mother, who had not been cured even after seven magic treatments.

But she still didn't want to believe this fact, so Ningguang tried her best to make money every day, and she forced herself not to think about it.

She continued making money, asking people to use healing magic, and continued treating my mother's illness as much as I could.

However, this fact was revealed by Leon. Despair and exhaustion instantly filled Ningguang's young mind, and the white-haired girl's eyes became blank.

She fell into deep doubt. Since his mother could not be cured, what was the point of his efforts?

God took your father.

Are you going to take her mother away now?

Why is this world so cruel?

Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding!

The gold coins in Ningguang's hand fell to the ground.

Tears fell from her eyes. Not even the hard work of running dozens of kilometers to sell fruit every day made her cry, but she couldn't stop crying at that moment.

She really likes money because it allows her mother and her to eat delicious food, wear warm clothes, and live a little better life in this world.

But now Ningguang feels like he doesn't like it anymore. No matter how much she earns, it is of no use. You can't save your mother's life.

"It turns out that all this is meaningless..."

"No, your efforts are very significant."

"Eh?"

Leon denies his despair.

Ningguang raised his head, expressionless.

Leon raised his hand to touch her white hair and said to her with a smile.

"Although healing magic cannot cure her, it can provide relief. Your seven treatments have allowed your mother to survive until now."

"Just waiting for the moment I got here!"

Leon drew the hilt of a magic sword and then implanted [Spatial Magic] inside Ningguang's mother's body.

Then began the most incredible gesture in history: he removed the kidney tumor without having to do any surgery.

"Let's try now."

Leon squinted his eyes and braced himself.

Although he had read many medical books in his previous life, he was not a professional doctor even with the blessing of the "Absolute Genius" skill.

Leon knew he couldn't perform formal surgery alone, but... with the blessing of magic, he had the possibility to defy the irregular surgery.

He used [Spatial Magic] to find the location of the tumor without surgery.

Used [Healing Magic] to forcibly maintain the patient's state of life.

He doesn't need to worry about infections when using [Magic Weapon], so he can cut tumors quickly.

This is an operation that past life doctors would have screamed at.

Even after the cut is complete, there is no need for suturing. Just apply healing magic and the wound will heal without even visible scars.

A few minutes later.

"Phew~ It's done, as expected of me."

Leon was relieved after the tumor was removed.

It was the first surgery in his life. Well, surprisingly it was quite simple. He turned off the spatial magic and the spatial rift connecting Ningguang's mother disappeared.

Ningguang looked at this in confusion from afar, but even though she didn't understand, she felt like telling her.

It seems...everything is fine.

"Your Highness, how is my mother?"

"Go and see for yourself."

Leon pointed to the beautiful white-haired woman on the bed, picked up the apple on the table next to him and took a bite, frowning and almost vomiting.

[This girl, takes the good ones and sells them, but keeps the bad ones for you? Tsk.]

He chewed hard twice and then swallowed.

Then Leon threw the bitten apple to Anis and gave her an expression that said, "Nee-san, this apple is delicious, you need to try it."
