Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 615  Accomplishment

"I…I can see now? I'm not dreaming, right?" She muttered in daze, her gaze focused on Max's face.

Seeing her reaction, a small smile crept up on his face and he gently nodded, indicating she wasn't dreaming.

Despite seeing him nod, Sophie was still in disbelief. After etching every detail of his face in her mind, she peeled her eyes away from him and started looking around. A few moments later, she broke out in silent sobs while tears streamed down her cheeks. "I can really see now." She whispered in a choking voice, her hands unconsciously reaching up to her face.

Watching her joyful face, Max felt a strange sensation envelop his being. He closed his eyes and thought,

'No wonder those rich people back on Earth liked to do charity and help the poor whenever possible. They didn't do it because they were kind and benevolent, or solely because of publicity and popularity. They did that for this sense of satisfaction, fulfillment and accomplishment.'

"Ah! I can feel and move my hands?!"

Sophie's sudden, surprised and gleeful cry brought him out of his thoughts.

Watching her wave her hands in front of her and look at them in amazement, he smiled and offered her his hand, "Not only that, you should be able to do everything a normal, healthy person can do. Here, try sitting up."

Sophie grew excited hearing this and hurriedly grabbed his hand, her heart galloping like a wild horse.

Right now, she no longer cared whether he could heal her magic foundation as he claimed or not. No, she just wanted to feel like a normal person, something she dreamt of feeling for over half a year now. As for what happened after that, she didn't care.

…

(The hallway outside Sophie's room)

Riva had finished making a nutritious meal for Sophie as Max asked her to, though she was constantly wondering how he was going to feed her?

For the first half of the year Sophie had been bedridden, the vitality booster pills, spirit fruits and other healing medicine could still work on her though with diminishing effect. After consuming them, her body would become a little healthy and she would be able to sit up and with her help slowly eat. But after half a year, these medicines could barely affect her.

Because Riva didn't want her daughter to lose hope, she would use her own Life Energy to make her condition better but after a few days, even that stopped having a substantial effect on Sophie.

Since then, Sophie had been lying on the bed, unable to even move her fingers let alone eat. She could barely croak out a few words and as days passed, despite being injected with Life Energy, her condition grew worse and she even lost her vision.

Because of this, when Max told her to make some nutritious food for Sophie, she couldn't help but wonder how he was going to make her eat. The thought that he was capable enough to heal her daughter would cross her mind but she would suppress it so she wouldn't get hurt from the disappointment if he failed.

Putting everything in a tray, she left the kitchen and had just arrived in the hallway leading to Sophie's room when she heard her daughter's sudden cry.

After Sophie fell ill, she had adjusted the isolation formation of her room. Instead of isolating the insides of the room to people outside, it was isolating the outside of the room to Sophie. She did this so Sophie wouldn't be disturbed and irritated by any outside noise while she would be able to hear any sound coming from her daughter's room, making it easier for her to take care of her.

Ba-Dump! Ba-Dump!

Her heart started beating like drums and tears of joy welled up in her eyes, "Sophie…"

Swoosh! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

She turned into a gust of wind and crossed the hallway in an instant but paused when her hand touched the doorknob.

Taking a deep breath, she slowly opened the door while inwardly praying that her senses weren't playing with her. However…

She froze in place when she saw the scene of her daughter trying to sit up with Max's help, a joyful expression on her face.

Riva's emotions burst forth and the tears she had stopped just a while ago fell like a waterfall. 'My daughter… we finally have hope… we finally have hope.'

After sitting up, Sophie looked down at her hands and legs, a wide smile on her tearful face.

"You really weren't lying." She said, looking at Max with gratitude. Max only smiled in response before glancing at Riva standing by the door.

Sophie followed his gaze and saw her steadfast mother trembling and shedding tears. Her eyes became gentle and with a huge smile on her face, she said, "M…Mother… He has really healed me. I can talk, see you and move my body. See."

Swoosh!

Riva flashed beside the bed, put down the food tray on the table before hugging her, "Yes, you are fine, baby. You are fine."

Max, not wanting to disturb them, silently left the room. Sitting down in a corner, he took out some Mana stones and started absorbing them.

An hour later, he managed to recover the bloodline energy he exhausted to heal Sophie and used some of it to increase his Mana.

'If I have enough Mana stones, and have someone to help me recover my bloodline whenever I need, it shouldn't take me more than a week to reach the peak of the Early stage of the Four-Star realm.' He mused.

He then checked his spatial ring.

Low Grade Mana stones: 50,000

Mid Grade Mana stones: 900,000

High Grade Mana stones: 3800

Nodding in satisfaction, he thought, 'Now I only need someone willing and strong enough, preferably a Four or Five star…'

Currently, the only willing female was Claire but because her cultivation was very low, she didn't have enough Yin Energy and her recovery was also very slow.

Glancing at Sophie's room, he sighed and stood up, "Let's help each other, shall we?"
