Yet, the MC said that part of what he was counting on is that she was bad at using magic. Which means he was expecting her to use it.

And if she's an "experienced fighter" yet didn't expect a headbutt, she's an idiot. In battle, anything goes, including headbutts and crotch shots.

I also see it as the father of the family being a pathetic waste, no matter how good a fighter, magician, or politician is. If you can't bother to be involved in and control your own household, what kind of a piece of sh** are you?

(I may be biased from overhearing my parents arguing over my mother showing blatant and frequent favoritism to my sister.)

(Sis wasn't having it, btw. She knew that kind of thing was sh**, and stood up for me against mother's golden child/scapegoat nonsense.)

B P (Ult1m4)@Galactic Navy Officer Yeah... this such a breath of fresh air... really nice compared to

It's not just about having a restoration/healing magic -it's also about the magic's level and the user's strength. If the injury or illness is worse than what the power can handle, then the power can be overwhelmed. If the user is badly weakened, they can't use their power effectively. A weak or low-level user can be overwhelmed surprisingly quickly. There's also having the experience to know how to deal correctly with the problem, or even recognize it in time in the first place.

(There's an old D&D joke about who heals the healer.)

Over in the ElfQuest comics (most issues readable on their site), in the Shards war arc there's two healers. (Besides Winnowill, but she's the enemy and a bi***.) 

Leetah is much, much stronger than Mender, even though he was literally named for inheriting his healer grandfather's power. She also more experienced, being around 600 years old when he was born. When a human ally's hand is injured saving a member of the war party, Mender can only keep her from bleeding out or suffering permanent tendon damage; several days later, Leetah (who'd been off with the half of the tribe finding a safe place to live after the war) heals it fully in just a few minutes. 

(Why the weaker healer went with the war party is a long and spoiler-filled story.)

Tree roots fu** with the pavement over time, and the foundation of houses if they're too close. 

They spent the last year(!) repairing the big road near my apartment and installing/repairing sidewalks. One I'm particularly glad about because the tree roots had raised a square of sidewalk pavement about an inch. I have to walk that part to get to the bus stop. I tripped over it at least twice due to poor lighting, being half-asleep, or both. 

(Due to how the buses run that fugbuck early in the morning and where I work, a 9 am open requires getting on the bus at 6:30-ish. I medically can't drive and Uber is expensive, so I only use it when I have to.)

By the Grace of the Gods goes into more detail on the problem of too much mana. Life of a Magic Academy Mage also touches on it. It's a problem of control.

It's like filling a cup. It's easy from a kitchen faucet. A garden hose at full blast is harder. Don't even try with a fire hose.

Ryoma from Grace seems to have a built-in control, and also has had a LOT of practice, so his excessive mana isn't a real problem. But then, his body was explicitly built by the gods when he transferred over.

From Academy, Leehan's country doesn't even allow kids to try to practice magic until they're legal adults, even Leehan's mighty mages household, and it shows in how hard it is for him to handle his magic at times. It'd probably be worse if he hadn't learned the sword, including aura training. In his Basic Beginning Magic class, the teacher explicitly bans him from practicing with fire due to his difficulty with control. She also compared his magic to the ocean in quantity, once calling it endless like the sea. 

The problem comes when he has to use a lot of finely-controlled magic back-to-back in an emergency. 
Spoiler!
(Him being in the middle of it was his own fault/choice in the first place.) After less than ten minutes of this, he starts bleeding from the nose and getting headaches. He'd've been in a worse world of hurt if he hadn't been able to switch to the sword to give his brain a break. He winds up using a huge blast of mana at once; he wins, but passes out almost immediately. Which is about when the cavalry arrives, so all's good.

That reminds me! Some of the popular manga are getting animes on streaming.

The ones I recognize from here are:

The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System
Heroine? Saint? No, I'm an All-Works Maid (And Proud of It)!
The World's Strongest Rearguard: Labyrinth Country's Novice Seeker (Which hasn't been updated here in forever)

To be precise, they used a sling -a pouch on straps or strings that works off centrifugal force- rather than a slingshot -a minicatapult that works off the elasticity of its materials. The difference is important -the first is far more devastating when you're dealing with Earth materials and physics.

Fk Nascimento@Galactic Navy Officer That's really crazy, huh? lol
