Chapter 16
However, the silence did not last long. This was because Jin Bo-mi immediately opened her mouth.
“I’ve been deceived, deceived, and continuously deceived… But still, I want to believe. Because I’m that desperate.”
Jin Bo-mi nodded her head.
It was clear that being in a state where she couldn’t move a single finger was not a good condition.
However, the fortunate thing was that it was not paralysis caused by nerve damage.
If the magical discharge disorder could be resolved, it would be a problem that could be quickly recovered along with the body’s recovery.
“I’ve never heard of such a method before. So you’re saying your saliva has healing abilities?”
“Yes. However, if a potion mixed with healing saliva is consumed immediately, there will be problems.”
“That means… While holding it in the mouth, one must be given enough time for the body to recognize it as ‘mine’, right?”
“Correct.”
Jin Bo-mi was the quickest to understand.
I made sure to convey a certain fact to Jin Seong-tae and Jeong-hoon, who had wavering eyes.
“People often jokingly assign meanings like indirect kiss when drinking something someone else has been drinking. Following that logic, wouldn’t that mean you can’t share a stew from the same pot?”
“I understand what you mean. Have you been preparing it?”
“The duration isn’t very long, so I’ll make it right now. I’m telling you in advance because I hope you have no prejudices.”
“…I see. Please take care of it. I’ll apologize if I made you feel uncomfortable.”
“No. Since you’ve probably never seen such a treatment method, it’s only natural to be bewildered.”
Of course, there is a faster method.
According to the numerous clinical (?) experiences from my previous life, ‘kissing’ is the fastest.
However, a kiss between the opposite sexes carries various meanings.
Therefore, I intended to proceed safely, even if it takes more time. Because alternatives exist.
“Please help me, Mr. Kang Shin-hwa. If I can get better, the method doesn’t matter.”
“It’s not ‘if I can get better’, but you will definitely get better.”
I said with emphasis.
I was 100% confident.
“If you make me better, I’ll consider you my lifelong benefactor and will never forget. I swear.”
In a momentary instant, Bo-mi’s expression, with tears dripping, was deeply laden with exhaustion.
“Miss Jin Bo-mi. If you trust me, there will definitely be a corresponding reward.”
“I’ll trust you. Definitely.”
“Then everyone please leave. I don’t want anything to interfere with my treatment concentration.”
“Mr. Kang Shin-hwa, please definitely.”
“Don’t worry about how to keep the promise we made in the car. Leave this to me.”
I said with a smile to Jeong-hoon.
Perhaps reassured by my confident appearance, Jin Seong-tae and Jeong-hoon nodded and left the hospital room.
Eventually, after the two left, only I and Jin Bo-mi remained in the hospital room.
“First, we need to boost your physical strength so that your body can prepare to accept magic.”
“That’s right. You’re correct.”
“Just think of it as someone drinking water too quickly because they were very thirsty. Then you’ll feel more at ease.”
This was something I had said to someone who had been particularly disgusted, calling it ‘making a fuss’. It’s a kind of psychological tip.
“I have no thoughts of it being dirty. Of course, I have no prejudices. I’ll leave it to you, Mr. Kang Shin-hwa. Thank you.”
“Then I’ll start preparing immediately.”
“Is it okay if I watch the process? I want to see it directly.”
“As long as there’s no aversion.”
I immediately concentrated magic on the entire salivary gland. The current saliva was in a non-attribute state without any assigned mission.
I quickly transformed it into healing saliva using magic.
‘With the highest possible concentration.’
I increased the intensity of healing power.
Soon I felt the filled healing saliva. This seemed sufficient.
“Well then.”
I carefully blew the well-sterilized healing saliva from the salivary gland into a small water bottle I had prepared.
‘May the first step of my returned life be valuable.’
Making a prayer of sorts, I created a definite turning point to heal her.

30 minutes later.
After the potion made by Kang Shin-hwa had been fully assimilated in her mouth, Jin Bo-mi drank it down.
Next moment.
‘What incredible energy!’
She felt her body rapidly recovering at an incredible speed.
This was an explosive energy influx she had never experienced from outside since being cursed.
The body that had felt extreme pain and endless sinking whenever healing energy had permeated until now.
That was now a thing of the past.
Now energy was surging throughout her entire body, and her fighting spirit and passion began to swell.
Was it because of this?
“Could you possibly make one more bottle?”
“Will that be okay?”
“For me, this water is like holy water! If possible, I want it to infuse more strength into my body!
She was even more proactive!
She began requesting the potion’s production from Kang Shin-hwa. The process meant nothing to her.
It felt like finding a welcome oasis at the end of an arduous desert journey, when one is about to go mad with thirst!
‘I’ve just drunk ordinary water containing saliva, but it feels like I’ve consumed a miraculous medicine. At least an S- rank medicine?’
After awakening.
Jin Bo-mi had eaten medicine her father Jin Seong-tae had obtained.
It was a medicine brought by Awakeners from the Yanghwa Guild from a dungeon, worth 5 billion won.
At the moment of consuming it!
She had felt heat rising in her nearly exhausted body, with her magical power explosively circulating.
It had been a truly mystical experience.
Now, the feeling she was experiencing through Kang Shin-hwa’s treatment was exactly the same.
Something that was merely ‘saliva’ to this man felt like a miraculous medicine to her.
‘How could someone like this be an F- rank porter? That’s impossible. He must definitely be a high-ranking Awakener hiding his power.’
Jin Bo-mi was certain.
She was an A- rank Awakener.
Though only twenty years old, she had become an Awakener with the great transformation and had steadily built her skills.
Supported by her father, she had gained experience through cooperation and support from formidable Awakeners worldwide.
She had met healing-type Awakeners not just once or twice.
Of course, she had even synchronized breathing with SSS- rank healing-type Awakeners.
Yet the feeling she sensed from Kang Shin-hwa was perfect, comparable to them without any deficiency!
Her previously miserable physical condition that could have collapsed at any moment had instantly recovered.
‘I can’t believe it…’
 Jin Bo-mi was so surprised that she repeatedly looked at Kang Shin-hwa’s face with an astonished expression.
Jin Bo-mi was seeing an Awakener who could imbue healing power into saliva for the first time.
She wondered if this was his only talent, but then realized it wasn’t.
Hadn’t he just directly pushed magic to circulate through her body momentarily?
This meant he had another talent for discharging magic in addition to healing.
At least two talents.
In other words, he was a Dual Awakener.
‘How could someone like that be F- rank?’
Jin Bo-mi thought Kang Shin-hwa was a hidden master in the shadows or someone intentionally concealing his identity.
In any case, through the first treatment, she saw an indescribable sense of emotion and hope.
She was very much looking forward to what was next.
Afterward, there were two more potion consumptions.
The wait was over an hour and not short, but it didn’t feel long. Instead, it felt happy.
Kang Shin-hwa, who had been quietly watching her recovery, asked casually, “How’s your condition?”
“I still can’t move my body at will, but I can definitely feel a solid foundation has been laid. It feels like I could run somewhere right now!”
The strength in her voice directly proved her emotions.
“Let’s continue.”
Kang Shin-hwa carefully adjusted Jin Bo-mi’s bed, slightly raising the angle.
And he held her hands.
“What parts do I need to be careful about?” she asked first.
Having directly experienced Kang Shin-hwa’s amazing abilities, she now definitely trusted him.
“Don’t try to push out the magic, just accept it as it is. Don’t panic even if it hurts.”
“I’m used to pain now. No problem.”
“Now that your strength is full from healing, let’s start immediately.”
As soon as his words ended, Kang Shin-hwa began to emit his high-purity magic centered on her heart.
At that moment.
‘Wow!’
Jin Bo-mi was amazed.
The magic entering through her hands was incredibly pure.
For Awakeners, magic volume is important, but the degree of purity and compression is crucial.
Kang Shin-hwa’s magic was both high in purity and concentration.
‘This is even higher than my magic level. If it easily surpasses an A- rank like me, he’s at least S- rank?’
Based on objective reasoning, she could make this judgment.
She couldn’t understand why he was hiding his level, but he appeared to be at least S- rank or higher.
Because otherwise, he absolutely couldn’t possess such high-purity magic.
Gradually, changes began to occur in the magic flow that had been completely blocked around her armpit area.
‘It’s collapsing.’
The hard lump blocking the magic pathways like an impregnable fortress began to dissolve.
Her body, which hadn’t changed even with expensive potions, rare medicines, or skilled healing-type Awakeners, was now dramatically transforming.
“Ah!”
Each time Jin Bo-mi exhaled roughly, the blocked magic flow began to clear, one by one.
That wasn’t all.
Twitch. Twitch-twitch.
The fingers that hadn’t moved no matter how much she had prayed were now starting to move.
As the magic circulation began, her physical abilities were quickly returning.
The healing energy injected by Kang Shin-hwa provided ample strength for movement.
“Haa…”
Jin Bo-mi shed endless tears.
Though several waves of pain continued to come, she accepted the pain with joy and ecstasy.
It felt like she was gaining a new life.
The dark and desperate future she thought she would die in was perfectly changing because of one man.
“It’s not over yet. Concentrate. The finish of treatment is more important than the start!”
“Yes!”
Her voice grew stronger.
Kang Shin-hwa remained unwavering, focusing on steadily pushing in the magic.
Whether it was designing for quick retirement or living an easy, lounging life, being a professional who thoroughly completes assigned tasks was important to Kang Shin-hwa.
This was also the original intention he never forgot as a member of the Nine Lords who had saved the world in his previous life.
Thus, Jin Bo-mi felt Kang Shin-hwa’s magic vigorously circulating through her entire body.
She broke down all sixteen barriers that had been tormenting her.
And at the moment the last barrier collapsed,
“Aaaah!”
Jin Bo-mi let out an ecstatic cry and suddenly sat up in bed.
At the same time:
“What, how is this possible?”
“This is absolutely unbelievable.”
Jin Seong-tae and Jeong-hoon, who were monitoring the room through CCTV, were simultaneously shocked.
What they saw was Jin Bo-mi leaping from the bed and raising her arms in celebration with all her might.
Their girl, who couldn’t move a single finger for the past few months, had returned to her previous self.
Miracle!
No other word could describe this astonishing event.
“Was this achieved by Kang Shin-hwa?”
“Ha, haha, hahaha! The young lady has finally returned to her former self. Finally!”
A bright smile appeared on Jeong-hoon’s face, who rarely smiled.
“Krk.”
Jin Seong-tae knelt and wept.
What no high-ranking Awakener, no luxurious medical team, no top-tier facility could do.
One person.
Kang Shin-hwa, a seemingly insignificant F- rank porter, had done it alone.
“A tremendously world-shocking event has occurred!”
Jin Seong-tae’s single sentence.
It contained the entire meaning of this moment.
