There are certain limits to healing. Usually if magic is used to heal someone, it requires the SAME amount of energy to heal a wound as it would take for it to HEAL NATURALLY.

That type of mortal wound could not have been healed by even Chelia, F. Lucy was about 10 seconds away from death anyway, EVEN WITH A SECOND ORIGIN RELEASE; it would take ALL of the energy in the healer's body, and then they would die. REMEMBER NOTHING CAN BRING BACK THE DEAD. If anyone was foolish to try to revive a dead person, it would just drop their energy to 0 and then BOTH would be dead.

Wendy-chan might be kind, and gentle, and willing to help her nakama, BUT: She is NOT stupid. ALSO, NO ONE MOVED AFTER F. ROUGE ATTACKED.... THE REASON WAS THE WHOLE SHOCK AND "WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED?!" Factor.

MDM had you been in that situation with those circumstances, would you have been able to react instantaneously?

I'm a BOSS, and I know that I would be to shocked to move for at least a few seconds. THE ONLY DIFFERANCE BETWEEN ME AND THE REST OF YOU, IS THAT I AM MAN ENOUGH TO ADMIT IT.
