Episode 9.13
"Eda-chan. I'm glad for you."
"I-I, I'm. Zzo hapfyy. Zniff."
"People may catch a sight if you train in town, so let's continue your training when we're outside, okay."
"I'll continue my training out of town ssu."
"Good, now then, I'm sorry but could you go over to Adventurer Association and look for subjugation or gathering quests that take more than a day to finish for . Those that take three, four, or even five six days would be good. And of course for Copper Rank. I don't mind even if the reward isn't too high. And don't accept the quest by yourself okay. Pick several here and I'll be the one who choose."
"I got it ssu! I'm off now ssu!"
Eda rushed out energetically.
"Lecan."
"Yeah."
"This has beco quite a pickle."
"You an the fact the she could use ?"
"I'll explain to you now, listen well."
In many cases, manifested when one wished for the recovery of a family mber who was hurt or fell ill during daily life. Which ans, many ended up acquiring the ability without preparations nor resoluteness for it.
If the spell that was first cast demonstrates weak power, capable of only healing scratches or light injuries, it ans the power is less effective than good quality dicine. Those who posses this level of can live the way they've always lived and make use of it to help their relatives or neighbors.
If the spell demonstrates stronger power, aning capable of curing big wounds or non-serious disease, it opens three major paths to the users. Either going to the temples, to nobles, or beco a dical practitioner. A dical practitioner has to work together with doctors, those who use dicine to cure people, otherwise they have to work double as one.
And if the power is even stronger than that, capable of healing even fatal wounds or grave illness, they have no other path than to be under temples or nobles.
However, even those who showed weak power could get solicitations from temples or nobles if they're deed to have talent. A luxurious life awaits those who accept those solicitations, in exchange for their freedom as they won't be able to even see their parents freely nor choose marriage partner. No matter be it n or won, they will be treated as a tool to leave behind the lineage of users.
Put simply, the degree of restriction is directly proportional to the degree of power. So long as one exhibits weak power of , they won't be bound too tightly even under temples or nobles, but the stronger their power grows the harsher the restriction becos. If one has the power to heal even crushed eyeballs or cut off fingers, the only life they're allowed to have is like that of a prisoner in a gaol.
The reasons for temples and nobles wanting users are similar yet also different.
can be used to treat illness and injuries, and even to improve physical conditions. A noble house would seek users to maintain and preserve their family's health conditions. As it relates to a boost in family head's authority. If those with noble blood were to manifest power, it would be deed as a proof of holy blood, resulting in even severer restraints.
Temples gather up users to offer dical treatnt to nobles and the populaces. This is an important source of inco to temples which leads to expansion of power. Because the more users a temple has, the deeper god's love for that temple considered to be, increasing their speaking rights. And, although numbers of subordinate temples in each town is decided in conferences between temple heads of the Nine Great Temples, principally those numbers are proportional to the numbers of users each temple possesses.
And, many mages who have learned how to use high level also eventually learn . has the power to cleanse impurities or curses, and is also highly effective against Soul Ogre youma, but when used on humans, it works to heal most illness and even cure poison and abnormal status. High level is even said to equal , but even low level has a slight age-rejuvenating effect.
This rejuvenation is the temples' greatest weapon. Aged high-ranking nobles and wealthy people will pay the temples all kinds of things in exchange of getting slightly rejuvenated. The two things that sustain temples' continued existence are people faith and users.
The Great Nine Temples undoubtedly have several users under them, but they don't disclose the exact numbers of these users, nor their nas nor ages. Rumors abound about several users who left their mark in history to have progressed into users, but so also believe that there must so who manifested while they were still young. A user is put under extre restriction, they're not allowed to go out, et other people, or even act without instructions from temples.
It's said that so of the high-ranking noble houses also have users under them, but since the temples would take away those users if their existence ever beca public, their identities have never co to light.
"Lecan. You'll be fine. Neither temples nor nobles would try to forcefully detain an adventurer as strong as you won't even if you have the power to heal grave injuries. However."
That's not the case with Eda. She doesn't have the strength to defend her freedom by herself.
"I wouldn't have been this worried if only that child didn't have the talent. But, most likely, she's got it."
"Just forbid her then. From using and practicing ."
"Lecan. Did you beco a swordsman because soone told or ordered you to use a sword?"
