Extending one hand backwards and the other in front of him, thin air made a burning crackle noise as it turned red hot and twisted to form two deep red daggers that rested in his grasp.

The daggers were releasing an aura that threatened to evaporate the monster alive, they were like the reincranation of a supernova, a star that's about to explode and blind the universe in a cosmic storm of flames.

On the other hand, the monster's huge dark sword was the reincranation of black hole as it threatened to suck in the whole galaxy without a moment's notice, as it took the flames head on without even getting a hint of warmth in it.

Ted furrowed his eyebrows in worry as he spectated the scene taking place in front of him. 'He's definitely an S ranker,' he thought to himself, looking at the monster's maniac smile, 'he is enjoying it.'

Looking at the unconscious girl again, he was surprised that she was still alive after all of what had happened to her, especially her fighting that monster and surviving.

'Alright, I'll leave that mad beast for Jamie, it might be a pretty bad match against him, but if he can't do it then the city, no, the country will be destroyed before help could arrive.' he thought to himself.

Ted wanted to reassure Jaime or say something to encourage him, but he knew that the best way would be to heal the little girl.

As one of the only few S ranked healers around the globe, it was something he could do easily, 'however, I need to keep performing the procedure slowly as not to overload her body with foreign mana. Unlike Jamie, I'm not the best at mana control.'

Jamie was exceptionally an expert with mana control that it made other S ranker look bad, but then again, he was a special case.

'Man I wish I still have at least a third charge!' he thought as he looked down in disappointment while he continued the healing process.

What made him one of the best healers is that six times per day, he could heal a person fully, as long as they're not dead.

He could regenerate missing organs or amputated limbs as if it was a walk in the park. But he only had two left and he needed that in case things go south with Jamie or someone dear, even himself. 'If I'm dead, they all are.'

'Anyhow, why do I get this weird feeling that the girl is trying to suck my mana dry?' he thought about it as mostly a joke as he was sure a low ranker such as the girl in front of him would never be able to have the mana capacity or the means of doing that.Or so he thought.

'I must be tired from all the healing I did,' Ted dismissed it.

*sigh* he sighed in relief. After continuing the procedure of mana transfer and applying the healing process, he had reached a level where the suicidal girl was no longer in a critical condition.

'I wonder if she's just an idiot or if she had a death wish. Why would she want to go against such a monster?' he thought as he observed the current fight from a safe distance with the girl.

It wasn't so hard to remove her after getting her out of the critical zone, especially with how small and light she is.

[Raven! Please, where are you?]

Kayla was so desperate at this point. Even though Raven's body was being healed by her and Ted, the girl wasn't there yet.

Not that she was just unconscious, no she was absent, almost as if she was hiding.

[Did the trauma caused by that b*stard affect her this much?]

Kayla was so worried that Raven might be gone for good as she haven't heard from her in a couple of minutes now, but that was already too much.

[Raven...]

[Please, give me a sign, I can't take it anymore...]

Kayla's figure floating in the imaginary space inside Raven's mind was looking so desperate that she could no longer be called a robot. She was too human for that.

"Eh?" All of a sudden, Ted could feel his mana being actively taken, no, stolen away from him. "WHAT THE-"

He was cut off by the blinding light emitted by the little girl in front of him.

[Raven...]

Kayla didn't even know what was happening as a sudden reflux of mana, foreign at that, was leaking out of Raven's body, even though she was almost empty just a second ago.

Kayla's worry was beyond simple concern as she started shaking like a broken alarm clock. She didn't know what to think as her mana was completely different than before, but it still had her original signature.

[Raven...]

Yet, the girl in question hasn't replied to poor Kayla.

Not a second after the light show has ceased, the girl stood up with such grace that it appeared as though she was floating midair.

Opening her eyes, Raven's usually golden ireses were radiant white, in contrast to her void black pupils.

"Hey..." Ted stared bluntly at the little girl's beautiful features that he almost choked on his own breath. *cough* "Ahem, how are you feeling?"

However, Raven ignored him completely as if he was a fly on a wall, nothing but an insignificant being that her time was too precious to waste on.

And of course, Ted wasn't happy about that, but he didn't say a word. Firstly, even as an S ranker, he'd seen his share of new personalities after a trauma or a hard mental shock.

Secondly, the mana she emitted was by no means normal and he had no intentions of testing her prowess. He wasn't the best fighter after all, but one of the best healers.

Having a second to look around, Raven could easily spot the S ranker fighting with the monster in the distance.

"Hey don't even think about it," Ted said as he saw her gaze over the two fighters, "I don't care how strong you think you are, but you'll be turned to toast if you interfere, no, if you even just TRY to interfere," he shook his head.

"Pretty sure you'll die before you even take a breath out there." he continued.

The fight was getting rather seriously dangerous as both are S rankers and both are using a good portion of their skills.

However, just like before, Raven ignored him completely as she disappeared from his sight completely.
