Perhaps if Kenichi were to deal with Racer, it would lead to a quicker defeat.
And Natsu and Gray wouldn't be as battered and bruised as they are now.
However, Natsu and Gray still felt it was right for them to defeat Racer themselves.
After all, they suffered a complete defeat at Racer's hands last time.
They wouldn't be satisfied unless they personally defeated him.
"Good grief, injured like this, how are you going to continue the mission?"
Lucy looked at Natsu and Gray lying on the ground, covered in wounds, and spoke with dissatisfaction.
"Don't worry, we'll be fine after a little rest!"
Natsu said with a grin.
While Natsu and Lucy were talking, Wendy, accompanied by Carla, came over and said timidly, "Um... perhaps I can help heal you."
Hearing Wendy's words, Natsu was overjoyed: "Really?"
Erza also looked at Wendy with surprise: "Do you know medical skills?"
Hearing Erza's question, Carla stepped forward and said in a mature tone, "This child doesn't just know medical skills. She is the Sky Dragon Slayer and possesses special Healing Magic!"
"Eh?!"
As soon as Carla said this, Lucy, Gray, Natsu, and the others were all greatly astonished.
"She's a Dragon Slayer like Natsu?"
Lucy looked at Wendy, full of surprise.
Carla didn't answer Lucy's question. She looked at the timid Wendy and educated her as if she were a child: "It's because of your personality that people look down on you!"
"I'm sorry, Carla!"
"Don't apologize to people so easily!"
"I'm sorry!"
"Good grief!"
Then, under the watchful eyes of Kenichi, Erza, and the others, Wendy spread her palms towards the wounded Natsu.
In the next second, a pale blue light appeared on Wendy's small hands.
Under Wendy's control, the pale blue light enveloped Natsu's entire body.
Immediately after, everyone saw that Natsu's injuries were healing at a visible rate.
And at this point, a series of system prompts sounded in Kenichi's mind.
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Magic Power attribute +5]
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Healing Magic!]
Hearing this system prompt, Kenichi felt a surge of joy in his heart.
He wasn't surprised at all that the system dropped Wendy's Healing Magic attribute in one go.
After all, Wendy's Healing Magic was a sustained-type magic.
Like Fairy Law, it had a chance to drop Wendy's Healing Magic attribute every moment it was active.
[Host, would you like to collect the Sky Healing Magic attribute?]
'Collect!'
Kenichi answered the system without any hesitation.
With Kenichi's command, the two golden attributes beside Wendy converged directly towards Kenichi.
After the attributes merged into Kenichi's body, his Magic Power increased slightly, and the [Healing Magic] attribute was added to the Magic attribute column.
Kenichi looked at the newly added Healing Magic attribute on the system screen with great satisfaction.
After all, Healing Magic was an extremely rare and special type of magic.
As long as one had sufficient magical power, it could completely heal even a person on the verge of death.
With Kenichi's current magical power, he could definitely achieve that level.
Unfortunately, however, Wendy's Healing Magic could only heal others, not oneself.
To self-heal, one would need to obtain the Sky God Slayer Magic attribute.
In the original work, during the Grand Magic Games, Sherria of Lamia Scale, who used Sky God Slayer Magic, possessed the ability to self-heal.
Of course, if Kenichi wanted to obtain the Sky God Slayer Magic attribute, he would have to wait several years.
After all, Sherria is only 15 years old seven years later, and right now she's only 8.
Whether an 8-year-old Sherria can even use Sky God Slayer Magic is still a question.
'The Healing Magic attribute is acquired. Now just need the Sky Dragon Slayer Magic attribute!'
Kenichi snapped back to attention and looked at Wendy, who was currently healing Natsu.
After ten-something seconds, Wendy withdrew her palms.
By now, Natsu's injuries were completely healed.
"So amazing! All the injuries are gone!"
Discovering his wounds were completely healed, Natsu jumped up excitedly.
After stretching his limbs a bit, Natsu turned to Wendy and said gratefully, "Thank you so much!"
Wendy tilted her head and said with a smile, "It's nothing. Next is..."
"I say, can you rest a bit? Healing Magic consumes a lot of magical power. Your own body is about to give out!"
Carla, knowing Wendy was pushing herself, said with clear annoyance.
"I'll take care of this one."
Hearing Carla, Kenichi looked at the wounded Gray and said.
This was a good chance for Kenichi to test the effects of the Healing Magic.
"You?"
As soon as Kenichi spoke, both Wendy and Carla looked at him.
"Could it be...?"
Erza seemed to have thought of something, looking at Kenichi with astonishment.
Although Erza didn't finish her sentence, Kenichi knew she meant: 'Could it be that you've already learned Wendy's Healing Magic?'
Kenichi didn't answer Erza verbally, but responded with action instead.
Kenichi spread his palm towards Gray.
In the next second, a pale blue light, identical to the one when Wendy used Healing Magic, appeared on his palm.
"Healing Magic?!"
"You can actually use Healing Magic?!"
Carla looked at Kenichi with disbelief.
Wendy looked at Kenichi, her small face full of astonishment.
Perhaps Carla and Wendy didn't understand what was happening, but Erza, Lucy, and the others did.
At this moment, Lucy looked at Kenichi as if he were a monster.
'To instantly learn even Healing Magic... what a monster!'
While Lucy was complaining inwardly, Erza spoke up: "You really did learn Wendy's Healing Magic!"
"Learned Wendy's Healing Magic? You mean this man learned Wendy's Healing Magic just now, in that short time?" The expression of shock on Carla's face deepened.
"Yes, Kenichi is a magic genius. He can learn any magic in an instant!"
"As expected of Kenichi, you're really amazing!"
Hearing Erza and Natsu's words, Kenichi didn't know how to respond for a moment.
While everyone was marveling, Kenichi had already finished healing Gray.
'So this is the effect of Healing Magic?'
Kenichi looked at the completely recovered Gray, clenched his fist, and felt very satisfied.
