How quickly does whey protein “heal” the muscles? Usually when i worked out, my muscles ached the morning after and thats when i know i had a good workout. But now that i started drinking whey protein after i work out, i wake up the next morning and no muscle aches. Is this the protein or am i just not working out good enough anymore?

Because after you started taking protein you had already started working out and already started improving. Protein isnt an anabolic steriod, it doesnt speed up recovery. It helps build muscle. If anything you eat help speed up recovery it is carbs, and that is from the glycogen and from giving you calories to burn.
Muscle soreness does not indicate muscle growth or the quality of a workout.
It is the protein, they help repair your muscles.
