The Plains In Super

Chapter 48 - Blood

"Just a sec." Petunia said as she prepared herself for something.

Is she going to do a magic trick or something?

Witchcraft maybe?

"You might want to cover your eyes if you're scared of blood." She added which made me frown at her.

Blood?

What does blood have to do with her magic trick?

"Okay, here it goes!" She stood up and took a deep breath as she shut her eyes tightly.

"Fily!?" I called to Fily with concern as my eyes widened at her.

She shrugged at me like she had no idea of what was going on either..

I was a bit concerned about what Petunia just said about the blood so I watched her every movement thoroughly.

Suddenly, my breathing halted when Petunia screamed as she scratched her own wrist using her sharp claws!

"AHHH!"

"Petunia!"

Our shouts overlapped with each other as the both of us panicked when we saw Petunia shivering while losing blood.

I know she warned us about the blood and I'm not a bit scared of blood but I'm really concerned about her health right now!

"Is this what you call magic!?" I growled at her as I moved my hands to hold her wound but she stopped me.

"W-wait." She said weakly as she closed her eyes, trying to squeeze more blood out of her wrist to the mixture which totally freaked me out even more!

"Petunia! That's enough, let me fix it!" I could almost hear my heartbeat's loud banging as I panicked on curing Petunia's wound immediately.

Just how much more blood does she need to lose before saying it's finished!?

"Just… a bit.. more." She whispered stubbornly which made my stubborn self angry at her for a second time.

There's no other way, I need to fix it now!

Surprisingly, Petunia did not rebel when I grabbed her wrist and wrapped my hands around it tightly.

"You better tell us the purpose of this or I won't give you any more slimes!" I scoffed and took a deep breath as I tried to feel the Healing slimes inside of me, urging them to go out slowly as my index finger traced the line that her sharp claw created while also trying to control my breathing so that I could fully focus on the amount that I was manually secreting.

The auto system was much easier to use than this but I don't really want to be restricted by it either.

When I opened my eyes, I saw the cyan color disappear quickly as they went inside the wound and the clear slime that was left was slowly closing the wound, making it look like it was never even there.

I also noticed a few more marks of scars that Petunia probably got when she was making the other previous versions of the Gummy and I also decided to cure them.

It was fascinating to witness the curing of the Healing slimes first hand, especially in a furry animal body as it even made the fur grow faster from the wounded skin to match with the others.

There were still a few amounts of excess Slime that I spilled due to my miscalculations but when you look at it, I'd say I did a pretty decent job controlling it!

Especially since you know, this was the second time that I actually got to control this power on my own, right?

Maybe I should come up with a name to this power sometimes instead of just calling it healing slimes every now and then.

"Gem," Fily called to me and patted my back as she held Petunia in her other arm like a baby.

I let go of Petunia's wrist gently and shifted my eyes on the mixture of her Gummy instead while Fily was busy taking care of Petunia.

I stared at the Gummy mixture even more and as I saw the red liquid on top of it like frosting in a cake, I was reminded of Petunia's actions earlier, and somehow, I was also reminded of my friends who died back then.

I didn't even know their names.

Why would Petunia do something so reckless like that for this thing?

What was the big deal of having this anyway?

I wonder if she would still find this useful after getting her human body back?

With this manual control over my power after overriding the system, I really gained a lot of confidence that I would be able to help Petunia get her body back!

And also with this, I could almost guarantee Venedette's safety as long as she's with me!

After being pleased with what I have achieved so far with my powers, my focus shifted on the red blood in front of me that was now bubbling.

There was also a mind of smoke coming from it which made me even more concerned.

As I looked at it closely, I concluded that the blood was boiling instead of just popping out some bubbles every now and then.

"Fily?" I called to her but my eyes were still focused on the blood that was boiling above the purple mixture.

The gummy was not hot, in fact, it was cold to touch but it would burn your skin because of the chemical reactions from its toxins.

Maybe that was also the reason why the blood was boiling?

And as I moved closer, I heard slight whistles from the boiling blood, resembling the sound that boiling water in a kettle makes except the liquid was not water and there was no kettle to help it make those sounds!

"Fily!? I called to her again, now afraid of this unsettling phenomenon.

I blinked my eyes several times when I noticed the blood moving clockwise on its own.

I was sure my hands were not holding anything and even Fily was still busy taking care of Petunia on the corners of this room where the sink trees were!

So how could it move on its own!?

"Wait!"

I looked back at Fily for a split second to see if she was coming but she was still busy taking care of Petunia so I just decided to bring the mixture to them after a few moments of hesitation.

But when I touched the metal bowl, I immediately let go of it as I felt the burning sensation in my hands.

"Ouch!" I gasped and rubbed my hands against each other to relieve the pain from the unexpected temperature of this mixing bowl.

"Something happened!?" Fily shouted from across the room.

"This Gummy is burning!" I answered back at her and looked at my hands that were now messed up with the slightly sticky texture of the Healing slime that I failed to control yet again.

"That's about right." I heard Petunia whisper with her weak voice. I could almost imagine her trying so hard to get back on her feet but Fily would not let her.

"We're almost done here!" Fily shouted again while wiping herself and Petunia's wet fur with another towel after what I assume was a quick bath in the sink because of the powder from the ingredients spilled all over her and the blood on Petunia's body when she did that stunt earlier.

"Come quickly!" I said and watched the mixture stir on its own yet again, weirded out but still fascinated by Petunia's talents that were really from out of this world.
