"Just like how dragonoids are part human part dragon. I can turn you into another race that has the ability to heal the wound." Nathan answered.

  "I have never heard of anything like that. How is it possible? Is it safe?" Tiffany asked, overwhelmed by the outrageous statement made by Nathan.

  "No surgery is without risk. However, I have analyzed the glyphs of the Behemoth and Leviathan, and they can be used for healing you. But we must decide now before their Mana dissipate. This is a very rare opportunity."

  "As for how is it possible, let me explain. Bob’s wound cut through many of his muscles, bones and nerves. To be more specific, his scapula was cracked with a hole in it. His teres minor was completely cut, even his…" Nathan kept on talking. "… When your body heals naturally, new cells like… "

  After a moment, Tiffany stopped Nathan, "Wait! Wait, please stop. Would you explain in a way that we can understand? We are not physicians."

  "Oh, sorry, I tend to get carried away when it comes to researching. I have been spending a lot of time in the lab lately." Nathan said, smiling in embarrassment. He then lowered his head, closed his eyes and contemplated on how to explain the procedure. "There is a lot to explain, but I will try to keep it simple."

  Tiffany nodded. Bob, Tiffany and Adrian fixed their gaze on Nathan, but Winnie started to look up into the trees and the birds on them."The Behemoth was defeated by Bob earlier, right? However, after only a few minutes, he got back up. Why do you think it could heal so quickly?" Nathan asked, attempting to use the godly beast as an example.

  The family looked at Nathan for a moment as if asking for an explanation. "Why?" Adrian asked, breaking the silence.

  Nathan then explained.

  Mana can emulate living tissues. Healing with artificial tissues is much faster than natural healing by living cells. The Behemoth was able to heal itself using artificial tissues very quickly without the need to wait for cells to grow. However, without a specialized spell, the process was not instantaneous. The Behemoth only stopped bleeding when he stood up, and he would have needed another day to fully heal. Nevertheless, the Behemoth could recover from most injuries without severe repercussions, which was intriguing.

  Winnie noticed a squirrel nearby and pointed it out to Adrian. Adult talks were too boring for the children.

  Nathan, noticing that the family’s mind was drifting away, said "In short, I can transform Bob into a human, Leviathan and Behemoth hybrid to heal his wound. Bob, would you like to give it a try?"

  "Oh, what? Is it time for dinner?" Bob asked, startled by the mention of his name. Even though his eyes were wide open, he was apparently drifted away by the medical details earlier. Tiffany gave him a slap on his back. "Ouch! My wound… owww..."

  "He asked whether you want to become a human, Leviathan and Behemoth hybrid in order to fully heal your left arm." Tiffany explained.

  "Ok." Bob said after a moment. "Will I need to keep a humanization spell activated all the time?"

  "No. Appearance wise, you will be fully human. You will gain the ability to transform into a beastman, similar to Julie’s dragonoid form." Nathan said. "However, I am not sure if you will be able to transform fully into a godly beast."

  "Interesting. Will I get stronger?" Bob asked with a thrilling smile.

  "Yes, definitely." Nathan answered, smiling with confidence.

  "Can you make sure I can fully transform into a godly beast?" Bob asked again, his eyes widely opened.

  "Um…" Nathan paused for a few seconds, furrowed his eyebrows as he pondered. He then said, "Theoretically, yes, I can. However, we will need some more time to study it and make sure you can transform."

  The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

  "Fair enough. Let’s do it." Bob said, nodding to Nathan.

  "Okay, please lie down." Nathan said, taking out his notebook to study it. His expression turned serious as he prepared the operation. "Also, Adrian and Winnie, come here. I can use this chance to heal you."

  "What are you planning to do?" Tiffany asked, as she put her arm around the children and stopped them from moving any closer to Nathan.

  "The amount of Mana Leviathan and Behemoth left behind is enormous. Bob doesn’t need all of it. After the children cast Resurrection, they depleted all their Mana and suffered some internal injury. So I plan to use a demonic blessing to heal them."

  Bob and Tiffany had always taught Adrian and Winnie to be faithful to Goddess Liliana. The term "demonic blessing" struck a nerve with Tiffany. "Would it turn them into demons?" Tiffany asked cautiously.

  "Yes, but you are a demon too, aren’t you?" Nathan remarked without a thought, as he continued to study his notebook. "I am surprised you are still alive all these years despite your Multi Cast ability being known to the Kingdom."

  Tiffany’s face darkened with guilt. She was reminded that the family was going through all these perils because of her.

  "Sorry, I said too much. My apologies," Nathan, upon realizing that he misspoke, lowered his head and sincerely apologized to Tiffany.

  "Nathan, no, please raise your head. You are right." Tiffany said, reflecting on the recent events. "Thank you for saving us. There is no use for us to be so devoted to Goddess Liliana, isn’t it? I was too naive to think that if we were avid believers, the Kingdom would leave us alone."

  Bob put his hand on Tiffany’s back and reassured her, "No problem. I will get even stronger to protect the three of you."

  "You are already strong enough defeat a godly beast and you still want to get stronger?" Tiffany smiled, her mood livened up by her husband's promise.

  "Apparently, I am not strong enough." Bob answered seriously in regret. If not for Nathan arriving in time, the worst could have happened. Therefore, he was eagerly seeking strength from the transformation.

  Nathan nodded and said, "Let me continue. Since Adrian and Winnie awakened Resurrection, they are demons too. So it is fine if they cut ties with Liliana's Divine Power from now on."

  "Right." Tiffany nodded.

  "Ok, let me begin the procedure." Nathan said as Bob lay down on a stone bed.

  Nathan carefully took off Bob’s bandages. He then held his notebook with his left hand, reading from his notes, and placed his other hand on Bob. In the next moment, the family could see silver glyphs lit up on Bob’s body as Nathan edited them. The procedure only took a few seconds. Nathan then did the same thing to Adrian and Winnie, as they watched him with curiosity.

  "Advanced Skill: Ultrasound Monitor," Nathan opened a hologram to monitor Bob's wound. Then, Nathan told the family, "Just relax," as he drew some unknown glyphs in the air and activated a spell. The glyph drew the Mana in their surroundings into Bob, Adrian and Winnie, making them feel a warm sensation. Meanwhile, gusts of wind started blowing toward the family, as rustling tree leaves and dried leaves on the ground converged on them.

  "Sorry, the amount of Mana is much greater than I thought. Wind Gust." Nathan chanted a spell to prevent the nearby leaves from burying Bob and his children.

  Adrian watched with amazement as his father’s wound literally disappearing in front of their eyes, albeit slowly. Behemoth’s horn started to grow on Bob's head and light blue dragon scales appeared on his arms and chest, glittering from the light of the glyphs.

  "Behemoth’s horns and Leviathan’s scales." Tiffany said, astounded by the transformation. "How exactly did you do it?"

  Seeing Tiffany’s amazed expression, Nathan smiled and said, "I can give you a longer explanation if you are willing to listen."

  "Okay, please." Tiffany replied, intrigued by Nathan's Magic.

  "I need to listen too." Bob said seriously, seeking knowledge and power.

  "Don’t space out this time, it is not polite to Nathan." Tiffany complained to Bob.

  Nathan smiled awkwardly, "My ointment makes him drowsy, so it is partly my fault."

  After the procedure was done, Adrian and Winnie walked around and flexed. Nathan, however, was still operating on Bob. In the next fifteen minutes, Bob’s body continued to shine with silver colored glyphs. Nathan closely monitored Bob’s transformation and simultaneously studied his notebook. He occasionally edited the glyphs on Bob’s wound.

  "I am slowing down the process of healing, to make sure your body wouldn’t become overly dependent on the artificial tissues." said Nathan in the middle of the procedure.

  "Ok." Bob said, but apparently he had no idea what was going on.

  Gradually, Bob’s partial beastman transformation receded.

  "Alright, it is done." Nathan said before dispelling the Ultrasound Monitor and put away his notebook in a pocket.

  "My wound doesn’t hurt anymore." Bob said, exhilarated by the change.

  "Try transforming." Nathan encouraged Bob, with a warm smile. "It should be completely safe."
