The healing process had barely started when someone pressed the fast-forward button. The yellow ring, the representation of Time, worked like a miracle, and his reconstruction was accelerated by thousand times.
Outside, the miasma of death materialised and spread across the ground. It consciously avoided the boss beings and concentrated towards the Tyrant Fairy. Sensing that the beast is beyond the ability of miasma, Light-splitter spikes materialised in the air and dashed to the Tyrant Fairy. The beast was hurt, but not wounded.
A large and wide ring of purple colour appeared above the Tyrant Fairy's head. Before it could see the ring, an intense force pressed the being to the ground. The unyielding limbs of the beast resisted the force while trembling violently. Even the gravity was not on enough to break this devil's resilience.
The next combo did the trick. Lightning appeared out of thin air, and rampaged the being with anger and resentment. The poison evaporated in intense heat and enveloped the fairy like a cloud. An entity that brute force could not harm was shaken by the numbing electrocution and paralysing poison cloud.
The Gravity picked up power and the beast was planted firmly on the ground. The miasma of Death element slowly poked into the enormous bat-winged beast. Due to its sinister and malicious intentions, the Light-splitter spikes made out of pure Light element penetrated its skin.
But.it did not show any signs of pain. The Tyrant Fairy expressed discontent and anger, but not pain and agony. D, I mean the system, saw this and was confused. But the clueless expression soon faded away as he saw the Death element getting sucked by the beast. By the time D deactivated the element, it had amassed enough strength to raise its torso against the gravitational pull equal to that of the Sun.
It was then D picked up a faint murmur from Lee. It was indecipherably faint, and lasted for only a fraction of a second. It can also be interpreted that D only heard the tip of its tail.
Lee inside the healing chamber was brimming with energy and strength. The remainder of one-sided brawl had been erased and the skin was flawless. D sensed something different with Lee, and summoned his stats for a quick peek. But as soon as his eyes fell on the panel, D had his jaw dropping in awe!

At the very moment, the Mana reserve was depleted. The Mana was only used for almost half a minute, and the entire activated affinities guzzled it up like a jumbo jet. The light spikes vanished, the gravitational field disappeared and the rampaging lightning lost its tickleness. The poison cloud slowly dissipated into the air, and the concealed elliptoid was broken apart.
Lee floated in the air with the Flight skill activated. The Tyrant Fairy looked confused and the next second, was enraged. It deduced that Lee has such higher healing power, which is enviable. The beast decided to acquire his body by any means necessary.
Just because the boss monsters were fast asleep, they couldn't witness the barely visible after-images of Lee and the Tyrant Fairy. The beast was extremely agile for a being of enormous size and their tour began to mark the walls with deep claw marks and tiny punch imprints.
*THACK*
The beast honestly did not sense that the image in front of it was not the original. By the time its long and sharp claws punctured the after-image, Lee appeared from its right side and his palm smacked the beast's face. To his surprise, few of its teeth fell off by the unexpected delivery of unimaginable force, from an unanticipated angle, by the unsuspecting source.
*grr...*
Deep and long growls followed the incident as the beast almost fell by the smack. It stumbled for a few steps and turned to glare at Lee. At the nick of the time, a large fist shaped ice shot towards it, and collided with its face, breaking its four teeth in front, and fracturing its nose bridge, while throwing the beast away like a tin can.
*CRASH*
The sheer force with which the Tyrant Fairy collided, left a hole in the wall. The beast laid there motionless for a moment, and cautiously stood back on its feet. Its immense rage and urge to utterly destroy Lee was expressed when it crumbled a hand full of hard igneous rock to dust.
The maniacal beast was more than 20 metres tall and was appropriately wide. If it was to jump up with half of its total strength, its head was sure to touch the ceiling of the floor. Lee, compared to it, was an ant. But this tiny insect has delivered some meaningful punches, which made the behemoth cautious. D also assumed that the Tyrant fairy must have learned not to judge people by their sizes.
Rather than charging forward, The beast kept a distance from him. It moved out of the cave, and stepped sideways. Each footstep was silent and well thought. Lee understood that the beast was about to commit something funny, and also raised his guard.
[Tyrant is plotting something.]
The large bat wings were unfolded and it formed an X mark behind it. The four wings had gone through quite a transformation, like how a penguin becomes an ostrich.
(A.N. Of course, a penguin cannot become an ostrich. Don't take it literally!)
[I can sense large quantities of Death energy accumulating inside it. It is accumulating at the tip of the wings]
A quick peek at the Map, and Lee understood the meaning behind the crab walk.
