"What do you mean?... just the beginning?" Iris asked politely this time to which both the chief scientist and the sponsor nodded yes.

"Have you tried activating your ability yet?" The chief scientist asked.

"No... I haven't had the opportunity to activate it just yet, but I can..." Iris began to reply and activate her ability on the spot to show to the chief scientist but was cut off midway through her sentence by the chief scientist.

"No! Don't!" The chief scientist said loudly making Iris freeze in one position.

Iris was just about to activate her Healing ability aura to show to a chief scientist who asked about it in the first place which left Iris quite confused.

"This is what I am talking about, dear." The chief scientist began to explain. " Don't activate your ability now because your body has just only recovered from integrating the ability itself which was already hard enough."

"Right now, your body is quite fragile and it would return back to that spasming state the moment you activate the Healing ability and let the aura roam freely in your body, and neither you nor us can afford that mistake." The chief scientist added.

Iris was completely stunned by what the chief scientist was saying. Her mind immediately started to bring up flashbacks of the excruciating amount of pain that Iris had suffered for half an hour straight.

Her arms and legs to began to shake from the sheer thought of having to go through something like that again. The chief scientist saw Iris' freaky state and calmly approached her to try to make her calm down using the only way he knew how and that was by giving her a gentle hug which she accepted.

"Don't worry, dear. We are here to look after you and train you so that you become very strong. We will help you get past these beginning hurdles and soon you will have full control over a very strong and powerful ability." The chief scientist assured Iris as he continued to hug her.

The chief scientist told Iris that the things she was experiencing were quite common as most people who tried to obtain this ability went through a similar process. However, once these people are past the initial hurdles of obtaining such an ability, the boons are quite good as well.

This made Iris cheer up a little as she received some hope that the things she was going through were fixable and the end result was sure to be quite rewarding.

***************

After that, the sponsor and the chief scientist began discussing Iris' new training regimen that she would have to follow which was under the extra conditions that Iris had agreed to when she was given the Healing ability.

First and foremost, Iris' gym hours were doubled, and her training focus was mostly shifted to strength training.

Additionally, Iris now had to take mandatory medical classes which taught the basics of biology and everything else that a person should know about how the human body works.

This was also very important as just obtaining a Healing ability wasn't enough to be classified as a healer. In order to become a true healer, one must also know the anatomy and working of the human body to make sure they understand what they have to fix and how to fix it when they are healing someone.

Iris was completely restricted from attempting to activate her Healing ability under any conditions until the chief scientist himself approved her to do so.

For the first two months after obtaining the Healing ability, Iris had yet to activate for the first time. During this time, Iris pushed through the intense workout routines and long medical lectures with fervor and determination.

Her physique had improved a lot and she had become a lot more physically strong. Her muscles remained small and compact but they were well-defined and oozing out strength. Iris wasn't one to show off her body and preferred to wear loose and baggy clothes for the most part which completely hid her physique from the rest of the world.

Even the military uniform that she was wearing during the recruitment test was a bit loose and it hid her strong physique quite well to the point that if Mako didn't have the Analyze skill, he would have never been able to guess that Iris' main attribute was her strength.

Iris was also at the top of her medical class as she aced every exam with flying colors and had a sharp memory that could easily remember all the different things that were taught about the anatomy of the human body.

***************

After two grueling months of constant effort, Iris was called to the main office once again for another meeting, and this time, Iris knew exactly what was about to happen.

Once she entered the office and greeted the head of the company (the sponsor) and the chief scientist, both of them started to sing praises about Iris' rate of growth and her progress over the past two months.

She gladly received all the praises with a smile but internally she was waiting for only one moment and she didn't have to wait long as the chief scientist quickly got to the point.

"Iris... I believe that you have trained enough and now your body is strong enough to bear the strain of keeping that ability active. So... I think it's time! Activate your aura and let us see the Healing ability in action." The chief scientist said.

A huge smile appeared on Iris' face as she had been preparing for this moment tirelessly for the last two months.

She took a deep calm breath and started to focus on the two energies inside of her. One was blue while the other was whitish-green. She had pulled on the blue aura countless times and activated it by letting it flow freely throughout her body, but this time she turned toward the whitish-green aura and finally permitted it to roam freely in her body.

Like a toddler who was finally tall enough to go on a cool ride, the whitish-green energy rushed to spread and roam all over Iris' body. Outside Iris' body, the aura began to leak out and create pressure in the surroundings. The chief scientist was not affected by the pressure generated by the aura as he himself had two abilities and each of them at a decent level which hold his own against the superior aura of the level 1 Healing ability.

The sponsor on the other hand was not doing so great under such immense pressure that Iris was generating. The sponsor was a businessman through and through and so he never bothered to become strong and learn abilities as he already had everything without doing any kind of hard work that a strong ability user would require.

Once the ability was fully activated, Iris quickly suppressed her aura to prevent it from leaking outside and finally opened her eyes. She could feel the boosts that the Healing provided to her natural attributes and she was relieved to see that her body wasn't spasming at all.

The chief scientist was glad to see that the aura was successfully activated without any complications and now there was only one thing left to test.

The chief scientist pulled out a small pocket knife from his pocket which looked quite unusual and unique. Using this pocket knife, the chief scientist proceeded to make a decent-sized cut on his forearm.

Blood instantly started to gush out from the wound that the chief scientist had inflicted upon himself. The sponsor was not aware that the chief scientist would pull such a stunt and it showed through his surprised reaction upon seeing the cut being made.

However, Iris remained calm and started to view the cut with deep interest. With the healing ability active, Iris' eyes could see beyond the cut. She could easily visualize the layers of skin that had been breached and the minor blood vessels that had been cut.

The chief scientist pushed his forearm in front of Iris and with a smile on his face told her a simple command," Iris... Heal me."

Iris didn't have to be told twice as she quickly reached toward the chief scientist's forearm and pulled it closer to her.

She could easily identify the layers of skin and tissue that were damaged from the cut. She placed her hand over the cut and her hand began to emit a whitish-green light as Iris had subconsciously activated the only skill that she had learned alongside the Healing ability.

By using the skill which was basically termed "Heal", Iris began to direct her healing aura through her hand and she could visualize small streams of whitish green light that traveled through her hand and into the cut in the chief scientist's forearm.

Iris had full control over the streams of whitish-green light and she directed to the areas where the blade had made contact with the tissue. As the whitish green light came into contact with the cut tissue, it began merging the cut tissue back together and reviving any dead tissue cells that were present.

Within seconds, Iris had managed to completely heal the chief scientist's forearm using her Heal skill, and it now looked completely brand new without a single scratch to speak of.
