Justin Brooks lay in a pool of blood, his breathing faint and shallow. His vital signs were rapidly declining; he was clearly on the brink of death.
Seeing her son’s horrific state, Miss Webb was instantly overwhelmed by terror and grief.
She grabbed Seraphina Sullivan’s arm, begging incoherently, "Sullivan, please... you have to save him... He’s my only son..."
Before she could finish, her eyes rolled back, and she collapsed.
Sean Chandler, who had been standing silently to the side, reacted in a flash. He darted forward and caught the fainting Miss Webb.
"Get her onto the sofa over there. Let her rest," Seraphina Sullivan ordered quickly, her brow furrowed.
At that moment, she could hear a commotion from outside—neighbors, alarmed by the crying, opening their doors to check, their muffled voices audible through the door.
Seraphina Sullivan was dead set against revealing her identity and abilities as a Player to ordinary people, but with Justin Brooks’s life hanging by a thread, she couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
’Tsk, what a hassle... Whatever. Any supernatural occurrences can just be pinned on Sean Chandler anyway.’
With Sean Chandler to act as her scapegoat, Seraphina felt a little more at ease.
She quickly shut the door and bolted it, temporarily shutting out any potential disturbances.
Returning to Justin Brooks’s side, Seraphina Sullivan immediately retrieved the [Universal Syringe] from her Space. She deftly injected him first with [Quick Hemostasis] and [Antibacterial Infection].
This temporarily stabilized the most lethal risks of blood loss and infection.
But considering the upcoming treatment would likely be excruciating, Seraphina worried he might wake up and struggle. Taking preemptive action, she gently blew out a puff of [Sweet Fragrance].
The pink mist enveloped Justin Brooks’s mouth and nose, putting him under a deeper level of [Control] to ensure the treatment would go undisturbed.
Next, she carefully pried open Justin Brooks’s hands, which were tightly clutching the severed part of his leg. She took the mangled limb from his grasp.
Seraphina Sullivan focused her mind, and her [Quick Sewing] Skill activated instantly!
A slender Silver Needle, formed from Energy and threaded with a nearly transparent suture line, appeared in her hand. The needle and thread moved as if alive, darting back and forth with astonishing precision to align and stitch the torn muscle and tissue, layer by layer.
Her movements were so fast they left behind a blur!
This was the result of Seraphina’s previous training.
She had become much more precise at suturing flesh.
To create a cover story in case her abilities were ever exposed, she had cultivated the persona of a healer.
In just a few minutes, the horrific-looking severed leg was reattached, the surface wound stitched neatly together.
The only thing marring the work was the spattered blood that made the scene look terrifying.
Afterward, Seraphina repeated the process, cleaning and suturing the other lacerations on his body, some of which were deep enough to expose bone.
After finishing the critical suturing, Seraphina took some [Healing Grass] from her Space—herbs she had gathered in the [Animal Slaughterhouse] instance.
Seraphina pursed her lips and muttered to herself, ’My [Super Healing Potion] is a life-saving treasure; I can’t waste it on you. The [Effect] of this [Healing Grass] is pretty good anyway.’
Seraphina knew full well that when it came to life-saving items, it was always better to keep them for herself.
She quickly crushed the Healing Grass, releasing a faint, fresh aroma, then carefully applied the resulting poultice to the newly reattached leg and several other severe wounds.
The moment the emerald-green paste touched the wounds, it began to grow warm, promoting cellular regeneration and healing.
