"U-um... Can I choke your neck, Count...?"
"...?"
I was caught off guard by an unexpected request, and for a mont, my brain completely froze.
Choke my neck?
I couldn’t grasp her intention at all, and I was left dumbfounded.
"What do you an by that all of a sudden?"
"Ah... It probably sounds a bit sudden. Actually, I’ve been doing so performance tests on my healing abilities. I think I’ve figured out the activation thod and the limitations, but there’s one mystery left."
"And that’s why you want to choke my neck?"
"Well, when I first awakened my abilities, when I healed your neck, the output was much higher than anything I’ve been able to do since. Even when I use it at full mana or in peak condition, I couldn’t match that original output. So, I want to recreate the exact sa situation to see if I can achieve the sa result."
"Ah."
Finally, I understood what Yuria ant and rubbed my neck.
The first ti she awakened her healing powers, it was when she healed my neck.
At that ti, the injury was a bruise from being strangled by Irene.
So, to replicate that situation, I would need to give myself another bruise...
That’s how we ended up with this ridiculous conclusion of choking my neck.
"Is it still not okay...?" Yuria asked, hesitantly. "I really don’t want to hurt you, Count..."
"No. I promised I would help you fully awaken your abilities in exchange for binding you to a contract. I can’t break that promise over sothing as trivial as not wanting to hurt my own neck."
"R-really!? So, it’s okay to choke you then?"
"Uh... yeah..."
Yuria’s face lit up with joy, and she quickly rushed toward .
But this girl...
Why does she look so excited?
Is she just happy because she’s found a way to fully unleash her power?
It’s not because she’s excited for so other reason, is it?
"Ah, I’m too short..."
"Co up on the chair."
"Okay. Then, here we go..."
Yuria dragged a chair over and knelt on it, bringing her face level with mine. She then gently placed both hands around my neck.
Her hands, small and weak-looking at first, quickly beca firm, veins popping up as her strength intensified in an instant.
Being choked by a child...
It felt strange.
When Irene did it, it didn’t feel like much because she was an adult.
But with Yuria doing it, I felt... guilty.
It felt like riding a tube in a river you’re not supposed to cross—dangerously close to going too far.
"Is it too uncomfortable? If it is, I could choke myself first, and then you could choke back..."
"No. Just choke and let’s finish it."
"Ah, yes."
Yuria was about to say sothing else, but I imdiately rejected the dangerous suggestion.
Being choked by a child with such strength was like tap-dancing on the line, but choking a child myself would be like crossing that line with a pole vault.
If I did that, not only would my conscience be shot, but I’d probably get on Kalli’s bad side as well, despite being loved by the Evil God.
...Maybe after we’re engaged, but not now. Never now.
"Okay, I’ll do it. But please let know if it hurts."
"..."
With that, Yuria carefully placed her hands on my neck again.
Her grip was gentle this ti, unlike before when it was firm.
She closed her eyes and seed to concentrate.
"Hh...!"
She exerted force, and with a sudden gasp, her eyes opened wide.
Then, a brilliant white light emanated from my neck as her healing powers activated.
I had no ans of asuring the output of the healing abilities, so I waited for Yuria’s response.
After a mont, her voice rang out, filled with excitent.
"It’s a success! The maximum output I’ve never been able to achieve since the first awakening! Actually, it’s even higher than it was at the first awakening!"
"Good to hear we succeeded right away."
"Yes! Thank you so much, Count!"
"But now we still don’t know the exact conditions for the maximum output."
"Huh!?"
Although we succeeded in generating the maximum output, we still didn’t know why this ti it worked, when it had failed before.
If you are reading this translation anywhere other than Novelight or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.
To keep getting the maximum output, we needed to figure out the cause.
"Yeah, I guess so..."
"Then, in that case, we’ll need to change one variable at a ti and figure out which one affects the output."
"Should I try choking your neck with my feet this ti?"
"...Let’s move away from the neck-choking experint, alright?"
In order to figure out the exact conditions, we decided to try healing other injuries.
I made a small cut on my hand and tested it.
"Ah! Maximum output!"
Success.
Next, I tried my arm.
"Again, maximum output!"
Another success.
Then my leg, knee, and back...
"Ah? Maximum output again..."
"Another maximum output."
"Another maximum output..."
Each trial was a success.
The maximum output, which had never happened before, was now happening consecutively without fail.
We had changed several variables in the experint, but there was one variable we hadn’t changed at all.
"Ah, then this..."
"Congratulations. It seems like you’ve found the condition for maximum output. It looks like your abilities only reach full power when healing ."
"...!"
It was officially revealed that Yuria’s powers are at their peak when healing .
"U-um... Can I choke your neck, Count...?"
"...?"
