Chapter 616: The Body’s Choice
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At this moment, I realized that 1 had been bragging before. 1 couldn’t even leave the hospital, let alone take revenge for Kara.
This made me feel ashamed and defeated.
About half an hour later, the werewolf grandmasters arrived. Most of them were locals of the Silver Moon Pack. My mom didn’t bring many people with her on this trip, let alone those familiar faces I had known since I was young.
Jill was Master Mary’s disciple. He and the doctors had been responsible for my health during this journey. He was very good at witchcraft but couldn’t find any problem with Heller.
“From the looks of it, His Highness’ blindness is likely to be spontaneous.” He frowned and said, “1 can’t find any traces of witchcraft or other powers. His Highness’ soul doesn’t have any signs of contamination. On the contrary, the slow healing is somehow related to blindness.”
Jill believed that it was because of his blindness that Heller’s self-healing ability was significantly reduced. Most of the energy was supplied to his eyes by his bodily functions, so he had no extra power to promote wound healing.
“The body itself caused this situation?” 1 asked. “Did Heller’s body blind itself?”
Gill nodded. “I’m afraid so, Your Highness. The car accident indeed promoted Heller’s blindness; however, it was secondary. The car accident allowed Heller’s body to make such a choice.”
1 wanted to ask more questions, but Jill said nothing more. He just looked at the medical staff in the ward warily. My dad looked around and signaled for the irrelevant people to leave.
When we were the only ones left in the room, Jill continued, “The following is just my guess. The materials and equipment available are too limited, so 1 can’t be ioo% sure.”
“You can speak freely,” my dad said.
Jill lowered his voice. “Although the fluctuations are tiny, His Highness’ spiritual world is expanding, or rather, ‘developing’. To a certain extent, this allowed for the evolution of His Highness’ power. Combined with His Highness’ description, the ‘light balls’ he saw was a manifestation of a person’s spirit. Rather than saying that he is blind, it would be better to say that his vision had evolved in an uncommon direction, temporarily serving his spiritual vision.
“That’s why I believe that this blindness is spontaneous. This is an opportunity for Your Highness to train his abilities. However, it doesn’t mean that there’s no risk at all. This is because 1 don’t have any precedent or materials to study, so I’m still determining the final direction. Also, if His Highness’ blindness… It will last forever.”
Jill’s description was familiar. Aunt Dorothy had said that she had a period of blindness when she was young.
However, Heller was different from Aunty Dorothy. Besides her strength, Aunty Dorothy was also affected by external curses. However, Jill thought that Heller was not affected by outward afflictions.
In other words, it was not a disease and could not be cured. Heller could only recover by himself.
There was good and bad news; however, none worked because nobody knew when Heller could recover his sight. Even Heller himself didn’t learn how to control the development of this ‘spiritual vision’.
At the sight of Heller’s look, I couldn’t help but think of someone as 1 mumbled, “If only Sisley were here. He might have a solution for Heller.”
From the beginning, 1 knew that Heller was not my brother. I also knew that he had a blood-related elder brother, Sisley.
He was a strange person. Even though he was handsome and polite, no one wanted to get close to him. His mother had destroyed his family, and he himself had been scared out of his wits by a disaster many years ago, wandering on the world’s edge.
He had always lived in a lonely cemetery, which was said to be the place where the disaster had occurred, but Sisley stubbornly believed that only this land where only the dead existed was the safest.
Sisley had been temporarily blinded before. Considering his kinship with Heller and the same power, it was hard for me not to suspect he had a way to escape this predicament.
The more I thought about it, the more 1 felt that this was a good idea. I immediately suggested contacting Sisley to ask.
Jill didn’t know Sisley. He had only been with Master Mary when I started elementary school. But after he heard about Sisley’s situation, he agreed with me.
So my dad agreed. We tried to contact Sisley but failed.
He was a recluse and rarely used modern communication tools. We had to send someone to the cemetery to find him.
This would take some time, and we waited anxiously.
During this period, my mom came, and she could finally take a break from the overwhelming work. The moment she entered the room, she hugged Heller and me. 1 could feel her strong arms slightly trembling.
“I’m late. I’m sorry, children.” My mother choked. “I wish 1 could have been by your side…”
Jill had left quietly at some point. Our dad hugged the three of us. 1 whispered in my mother’s arms, “Don’t worry, Mom. We’ll be fine..”
