Garp polished off the steak in a few bites and seemed to regain some strength. Boer walked over without a word, simply reaching out to rest his hand gently on Garp's heavily bandaged shoulder.
Garp stiffened slightly but neither resisted nor moved away. He felt an extremely gentle yet incomparably precise invisible magnetic field pass through the bandages and skin, penetrating his ravaged body.
Under the meticulous "internal vision" of Boer's Electromagnetic Extrasensory Perception, every detail of Garp's internal injuries lay exposed. He manipulated microscopic magnetic fields like a combination of the finest surgeon and bioengineer:
He applied an extremely weak, directional magnetizing force to the broken ends of shattered bones, allowing the bone cells, driven by Life Return, to grow toward the correct positions and join more accurately and quickly;
An invisible "membrane" formed from magnetic fields covered the bleeding points and tears in his damaged organs, temporarily replacing the function of damaged cell membranes, preventing further bleeding and leakage of tissue fluid, and providing a stable microscopic environment for the cells to repair themselves;
Gentle electromagnetic rhythms regulated and soothed his disrupted circulation and nerve signals...
The process did not take long, but it required intense mental concentration and control of the utmost precision.
"Try using Life Return alongside your own recuperative power, focusing on guiding the energy circulation through your chest and abdomen." Boer withdrew his hand, his voice slightly low. "Your physical constitution really is monstrous... You should regain basic mobility and combat capability within a week at most. But a full recovery will require at least a month or two of quiet rest."
Garp tried as instructed and immediately felt the burning agony and sluggishness inside his body ease considerably. His circulation became much smoother, and even breathing grew easier. He gave Boer a long
