I Reincarnated as the World's Worst Healer-Chapter 95: Sin Devourer vs. Iron Muscles (2)

Daniel’s body began releasing greenish-yellow magic while he remained in the crater. The energy seeped from his skin like a dirty, thick, ancient vapor, slowly covering him while blood and dust still stained his face.

Seeing this, the gigantic assassin instinctively stepped back, sensing the danger of getting too close to that putrid aura. Even someone like him, made of muscle, blood, and madness, immediately understood that touching that magic was a terrible idea.

As Daniel felt his body renewing itself, he began to rise. Despite the blows, he felt an incredible clarity. The pain was still there, but it no longer crushed him like before, and for the first time in several minutes he could breathe without feeling like he was going to break apart.

In front of his eyes, a system notification appeared as a floating blue, semi-transparent screen. The window appeared as naturally as always, right in front of his face, ignoring the chaos of the battle and the mountain of muscle that continued watching him.

Daniel, with a grin, looked at his hand that was emanating that greenish-yellow magic. He opened and closed it a few times, testing the sensation, as if he still couldn’t quite believe his body had come out better after such a brutal beating.

With a smile on his face, he thought "(Add 2 to Endurance and 2 to Vitality!)"

At that moment, the enormous assassin felt afraid to touch the boy because of the magic surrounding him. Its smell was rotten and unnatural. It wasn’t just a stench, it was a twisted presence, something that seemed to walk with one foot already inside the grave.

"(This guy stinks... He smells like Master Xavier’s broken toys... If he’s like Master Xavier, he’s dangerous. Very dangerous!)"

The assassin took another step back. For a moment, his instincts told him to run, but his fear forced him to stay.

"(But if I run away from here Master Xavier will get angry, and if he gets angry he’ll kill me... I’ll probably die if I run, but I’ll die if I attack too!)"

The thoughts swirled inside the assassin’s disturbed mind while he began scratching his forearms urgently.

A nervous tic he had developed during the few years he had spent living beside a ruthless killer who could take his life whenever he wished.

"(Quick, system, explain what these spells do.)" Daniel thought, already standing, carefully watching his enemy’s movements.

He didn’t lower his guard while asking for the explanation, because even half scared, that bastard was still far too dangerous to ignore.

Of course, kid!

{{Dark Magic: Necrotic Magic: Dead Man’s Plague}}

A spell capable of transforming your necrotic magic into a yellowish mist that spreads around you. Any living being that breathes or touches this vapor will suffer Damage Per Second until they rot completely. This also affects dead organic matter such as wood, although it will take longer to be affected.

This is an Activation-type ability, meaning that once the command "Rot" is used, the skill will begin consuming the user’s magical energy for every second it remains active.

{{Dark Magic: Necrotic Magic: Tormented Soul Binding}}

If you consume a drop of your enemy’s blood or flesh, their soul will become bound to yours. This creates a connection between both of you that, combined with your passive ability **Sin Devourer**, allows you to drain your enemy’s magic as long as they remain within 7 meters. If the distance is exceeded, the connection breaks.

However, the duration of the binding depends on the amount of blood or flesh consumed.

Activation command: "Bind".

"(Too much text! Summarize it!)" the boy thought irritably while swallowing nervously, because his enemy, despite keeping his distance, was still the strongest opponent he had ever faced. This wasn’t the time to read a thesis in the middle of a fight.

Understood.

{{Dark Magic: Necrotic Magic: Dead Man’s Plague}}

Activation spell. Consumes magic per second and creates a cloud that deals DPS.

Command: "Rot".

{{Dark Magic: Necrotic Magic: Tormented Soul Binding}}

Eat a piece of your enemy’s flesh or blood and you will begin draining their magical energy. This activates your passive ability. Duration may vary.

Command: "Bind".

Is that better, or should I draw you step-by-step pictures, you idiot?

Reading this, Daniel let out a small laugh, amused by the system’s humor despite the situation. The laugh was brief, almost absurd, but it was a huge mistake.

That moment of relaxation was all the opening his enemy needed, and the giant rushed forward while his reddish muscles began sweating blood once again.

The beast instantly understood the gap and moved without hesitation, trying to crush him before he could do anything suspicious.

"Master Xavier always says, hesitate for a second and die forever!" the gigantic assassin shouted, repeating his master’s teachings to overcome his fear of that terrifying magic.

"(Shit...) Bind!" the boy shouted, dodging his opponent’s punch by only a few inches. The fist passed so close that the air slapped his face, but at least he managed to activate the spell in that brief moment.

Suddenly, an invisible connection formed between his chest and that of his opponent, invisible to everyone except Daniel. For the boy, time seemed to stop for a moment.

He was amazed to see a line of white mist appear between them, connecting them from within. The bond pulsed once, as if a knot had just been tied, and he could clearly see his enemy’s soul.

However, in that instant of distraction, his executioner’s fist struck his body again, sending him flying into the wall and creating another crater in the stone with his body.

Daniel spat blood again as he knelt on the ground, but this time it was different from the previous blow. His improved endurance prevented more ribs from breaking, allowing him to stand despite that devastating hit.

It still hurt like hell, but it didn’t take away his ability to keep fighting, or his habit of running his mouth.

"Heh... That punch was way weaker than the last one. What’s wrong, already tired?" Daniel said while feeling his enemy’s magic flowing into his body with every second, healing his broken bones.

The sensation was strange, like stealing strength from a beast without touching it. For a moment he even felt guilty seeing his enemy helpless before his spell.

"You should be dead... you smell like death... I’ll send you back to the grave, you stinking man!" the mountain of muscles shouted while smashing his fists together and screaming in his high-pitched voice:

"Discharge!"
