351 You Must Be Pulling My Leg! (1/2)

The Old Shaman and Witch Doctor had been very patient and did not disturb his meditation during this time.

Initially, the Witch Doctor had looked down on Leon. But now, those traces of contempt had been wiped clean from his face. He had no right to look down on a fellow Shaman.

”Are you sure you have rested enough? Feel free to rest some more.” The Old Shaman spoke out of concern. He was unsure if the second step had any more risks involved, but it was better to be safe than sorry.

”There's no need. I've rested enough.”

Leon shook his head. He naturally understood what the Old Shaman was thinking and said, ”You don't need to worry. There is no danger to your son. The most important step has already been completed successfully.”

”Is that right? That's good then.” The Old Shaman nodded with relief as he glanced upon his son's sleeping face.

The Demon Core has been removed, and the demonization process has been stopped completely, but the slight demonic changes to his son's body were still present.

”Is there something you can do about these scales and horns?” The Old Shaman asked.

”I can tear them off if that is what you want. Your son's natural regenerative capabilities will be able to heal his body back to normal, but do you really want me to do that?” Leon asked.

Looking at the state of the person's body, it did not really look like someone who had undergone a demon transformation.

”Personally, I think it looks pretty cool. These changes do not really make your son look like a demon but more like someone with a dragon bloodline. Perhaps, it is better to ask if your son wants them removed or not after he wakes up.” Leon continued to suggest.

Hearing what Leon said, the Old Shaman hesitated. While demons are hated, dragons, on the other hand, are a symbol of strength.

After a short ponder, the Old Shaman nodded, ”What you say makes sense. It is my son's body. It is best to ask him for his opinion on the matter.”

”Alright, allow me to finish off with the treatment and wake him up,” Leon stated as he pressed his palm onto the person's chest.

Very soon, his palm began to glow with a soft green light as the regenerative properties of Wood Energy were channeled into the body of the Old Shaman's son.

Trivial injuries throughout the person's body, new and old, slowly healed at a visible rate as the Old Shaman and Witch Doctor saw a few scars disappear.

Five minutes later, Leon unsealed the person's acupoints and retracted his hand.

”Is it done?” Old Shaman quickly asked as he inspected his son.

Leon nodded, ”He should be waking up very shortly.

True to his words, Hardrock woke up a few breaths later.

”Papa!”

Little Bone had been very sensible on the side. But after seeing his father wake up and speak familiar words instead of crazy growls, he immediately pounced onto his father's chest in joy.

”Hoho, easy there, little guy.” Hardrock rubbed Little Bone's head warmly before he suddenly paused in discovery. ”Hm? You've grown a bit bigger, haven't you?”

”It's been two years since the outbreak of your Demon Possession. It's good to have you back, son.” The Old Shaman sighed emotionally.

”Two years, huh?”

Hardrock was still a bit confused and disorientated after waking up, but his mind soon regained clarity and said, ”Wait, did you just say Demon Possession? How am I still…”

”…Alive? You can thank these two for that. This little brother Leonhardt here is the one who completely cured you of your Demon Possession, but without the help of Master Woodrow's hypnotic mysticism, you would have also turned into a mindless demon long ago.” The Old Shaman explained as he introduced the two to his son.

”Oh? Demon Possession finally has a cure?”

Hardrock was astounded as he glanced at Leon and Master Woodrow. He was even more surprised when he saw how young Leon appeared, but he quickly accepted the fact.

His father would not be so bored as to play such a joke upon his recovery. Moreover, what could be more surprising than curing Demon Possession?

”I thank the two esteemed Witch Doctors for saving my life,” Hardrock spoke with heartfelt gratitude.

There was nothing wrong with what he said. Curing Demon Possession was akin to getting a second chance at life.

He wanted to get up and pay his deepest respects to both of them, but his body struggled to carry out his will.
