Chapter 110
At its core, this tool functions similarly to a Positive Energy Bottle—both produce a liquid infused with Positive Energy to aid the body's recovery. However, this teapot is not merely another version of a standard bottle that simply replicates that basic function.
There is a significant improvement that makes it far more flexible in use. The teapot can precisely adjust the temperature of the liquid according to the user's preference, as if it directly understands the body's needs without requiring any complicated manual adjustments.
The water inside can instantly become warm, hot, or even cold, without the need for additional processes such as conventional heating or cooling.
The change feels immediate, as the energy within responds directly to the user's intent without even the slightest delay.
This might sound trivial to some—just a simple change in temperature—but in practice, small differences like this have a considerable impact on both comfort and the effectiveness of recovery.
Warm liquid helps the body relax, relieves muscle tension, and improves the flow of energy.
Meanwhile, cold liquid provides a refreshing sensation, calms the mind, and reduces accumulated fatigue.
In certain conditions, simple comfort like this can indirectly accelerate the recovery process, making the body more receptive to the healing effects of the positive energy contained within the liquid.
More than that, the water produced by the Cursed Tool is not limited to its basic form. It can also transform into various types of beverages that feel familiar to the palate—warm tea with a gentle aroma that soothes the mind, milk that feels smooth and calming as it passes through the throat, chocolate with a rich sweetness that brings warmth, coffee with a light yet distinct bitterness, and even strawberry-flavored drinks along with other variants that are fresh, light, and easy for the body to accept.
All of these still contain the same positive energy, with no difference whatsoever in their healing effects.
The only change lies in their form, adjusted to be more comfortable to consume—especially for someone like Shoko Nishimiya, who is still adapting to the major changes occurring within her body.
Familiar flavors help the body accept the effects without resistance, as if the healing process happens naturally, flowing on its own rather than feeling foreign or forced.
That is why, after giving Shoko the candy, I also instructed her to drink the liquid from the teapot, ensuring that the healing process would proceed more optimally.
With the combination of these two healing-type Cursed Tools, Shoko's recovery process not only becomes faster, but also far more stable and controlled.
The candy works from within, repairing the body down to its most fundamental level, gradually yet steadily reaching every damaged part, while the liquid from the teapot helps accelerate the spread of that energy, ensuring that every part of the body receives its effects evenly without anything being left behind.
It is as if Shoko's body is being restored from two directions at once—from the inside and the outside—creating a perfect balance in the recovery process.
In a very short amount of time, the results begin to show clearly; within mere seconds, the changes become so evident that they are almost hard to believe.
Shoko's hearing problem, which had been a barrier she could never overcome since birth, now begins to slowly disappear, replaced by an ability she had only ever imagined.
Her difficulty in speaking—caused by being unable to hear since birth and therefore unable to pronounce words properly—also begins to gradually resolve.
At first, Shoko's voice sounds hesitant, slightly unsteady, as if her tongue is still trying to adjust to something entirely new.
However, as time passes, each repeated word begins to sound clearer and more precise, until eventually, she is able to pronounce them correctly, even though it still requires effort.
Now, after everything that had happened, I could only stand there in silence, watching Yaeko Nishimiya and Shoko as they continued to hold each other tightly, as if the world around them had simply faded away.
Several minutes passed without a single interruption; the embrace lingered, unhurried, as though neither of them was willing to let go of a moment they had only ever dreamed of in silence.
The room was filled with a warm stillness, not the kind that felt awkward, but one that carried meaning.
There was only the soft, steady sound of breathing, occasionally broken by faint, restrained sobs, as if emotions too overwhelming could not be completely hidden.
No words were spoken, yet nothing needed to be explained, because everything had already been conveyed through that embrace—gratitude, relief, and the happiness that had long been held back.
At last, I drew a slow breath, then gradually raised my hand.
Purple flames appeared once more in my palm, slowly spinning like a small living vortex, moving with a calm rhythm yet filled with power.
The dim glow of the flames shimmered gently, casting faint shadows across the room, before gradually swallowing the two Cursed Tools—Positive Energy Multifunction Water Kettle and New Life Candy Tin—which vanished without a trace, as if they had never existed in the first place.
There was no sound, no striking flash of light, only a quiet disappearance, leaving the space as it had been before.
Not long after, Yaeko slowly released her embrace, though it was clear she was reluctant to do so.
Shoko stepped back slightly, then looked at her mother with eyes still wet with tears.
A smile slowly formed on Shoko's face—a smile unlike before, brighter, more alive, and filled with emotions that could no longer be hidden.
Her eyes sparkled, reflecting a light that had never been there before, as if the world that once felt silent was now filled with color and sound.
On Shoko's face shone a simple happiness, yet so sincere and deep that it was difficult to put into words.
Most likely, all of this was because Shoko could finally hear sounds clearly without the aid of a hearing device, something she had never truly experienced since birth.
The world that had once been silent was now filled with layers of sound overlapping one another—the slow, steady rhythm of breathing, the soft echo of footsteps against the floor, the voices of others speaking in varying tones, even the smallest sounds that Shoko had never noticed before now felt vivid and close, as if an entirely new world had just opened before her.
In addition, Shoko had also begun to speak more fluently than before.
Words that once caught at the tip of her tongue now came out more clearly. Though not yet perfect, the progress was undeniable and significant.
Her tongue gradually began to adjust to the sounds she could now hear herself; her voice became steadier, and each attempt she made sounded better than the last, as if her body was slowly learning how to speak properly.
All of this was made possible by the two Cursed Tools I had used, which not only helped restore Shoko's hearing, but also improved her brain coordination, enhanced her memory, and strengthened her speaking ability that had long been hindered by the limitations she had carried since childhood.
Things that had once been distant dreams had now turned into reality—something she could truly feel, without illusion, without empty hope.
Yaeko Nishimiya then slowly turned her gaze toward me, her eyes still holding traces of emotions that had not fully faded.
The midday sunlight streaming through the window gently illuminated Yaeko's face, casting soft shadows that defined her features, making her appear more beautiful, more alive, and far more captivating than before.
