Chapter 88: Healing Magic
"Wha... What... I won't allow it! Grandfather, you can't use my form as your disguise. If you dare to do it, I won't talk to you indefinitely and I won't cook any food for you." Ella was surprised by Elysia's statent and worried that her grandfather might actually be able to do it.
"Cough... I won't do it even if I can change my entire form which ans it's impossible because I can't do it with all my talents and abilities."
"Hum, you better be that way." Ella studied her grandfather's face which had returned to his true face without a disguise then nodded lightly.
"Grandpa, Eve, and I are the new Deacon. What do we need to do on this first day of the Deacon class?" Elysia tried to shift the topic to what they were going to do today.
"Hmm... A Deacon doesn't have so many tasks, your job is to learn whatever you want. In every eting this once a week, you can study for the priesthood and then learn holy magic, practice the sword of the holy path, or help people."
"That's right, Ely. That's why we created a study group for the new Deacon." Ella added the answer from her grandfather.
"Then, have you also been a Deacon under the guidance of a Priest, Ella?"
Evelyn asked innocently but her eyes were suspicious. Ella is the granddaughter of Pope Alexander, there could not be a better guide to her than him, not to ntion her parents.
"Em... To be honest no, I was directly under my grandfather's tutelage."
Ella moved her two fingers to touch each other many tis in a sowhat embarrassed manner. She was the only Grade 5 affinity at the ti and none was better than her own grandfather whom she t every day.
Elysia and Evelyn nodded in understanding, but Elysia's original question hadn't been answered.
"What are we going to do now?" Her question is repeated more directly.
"How about we practice holy magic first? That special magic must be considered very carefully, the burden is quite heavy, especially for novice Deacon. While the grandfather is still here, let's bother him to teach." Ella smiled sweetly at her grandfather like a child asking for candy.
"Sure. Since your two juniors are now your responsibility then I will be your tutor Elysia and Evelyn. Let's go to our private training ground." Alexander invited the three girls and walked into one of the rooms around the beautiful garden earlier.
"Speaking of holy magic, what grade did you get from the affinity calculation, Elysia, Evelyn?"
As they walked towards the private training ground, Alexander asked lightly to consider their level of training.
"Grandfather, you may not believe it but Ely has a grade 5 affinity! Whereas Evelyn has a grade 3 affinity." Not the one being asked the question, but Ella answered cheerfully.
Evelyn pouted a little, sohow she felt herself being belittled even though no one did.
"Hoho... Grade 5, just like you, Ella. You must be very talented, Elysia. Then for you, Evelyn. Don't be discouraged or feel less talented, if you practice well maybe you can use life magic soon."
Alexander nodded with understanding then gave motivation to Evelyn who seed a little pouted, she did not escape from his keen eyes and his life experiences that have lived for more than a thousand years.
"Yes, grandfather." Feeling what she felt and was thinking was discovered by Pope, Evelyn imdiately fixed her attitude and expression to beco her normal self.
"Oh yes, Ely. Why do you call my grandfather, Grandpa?"
"I said it by accident and Grandpa asked to call him by that na." Elysia gave a complicated smile as she answered Ella.
She just found out from the book that Pope would be called grandfather by everyone, so only she called Pope Alexander by the na Grandpa because she was asked by him.
"Yes, that's true. Only Elysia called Grandpa with love and care. Even my son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter always call grandfather."
Alexander hugged his body in a quirky way as if to mock his granddaughter who used to call him Grandpa in the past, he already taught her with great difficulty but she followed like everyone else.
"..."
Elysia didn't know what to say, Evelyn could only nod and gaped a little in surprise, while Ella just rolled her eyes.
Ella has not called Alexander by the na grandpa since she was five years old and changed to the na grandfather to follow their Bible. A Pope will be everyone's grandfather, she is sowhat special than the others because she is related by blood to him.
Alexander imdiately opened the door of their private training ground to practice holy magic.
There was a training ground similar to that of the academy with a quarter of its size. They all walked into the room and the two girls who were entering there for the first ti looked here and there to look around with curious expressions.
"Very well, young Deacons. Let's begin our lesson in the morning today with an explanation of holy magic."
Alexander gave an opening like a teacher teaching his students, the three girls who followed him to the center of the practice site imdiately listened attentively.
"Holy magic is a supernatural power that can only be used by a small number of people apart from the magic that is sufficiently burdenso to the body. Healing, blessings, incantations, prayers, and songs have beco a dium of holy magic commonly known in society, and I'm sure you already know that..."
Alexander continued his long story like he was telling a fairy tale to a little girl who liked to hear stories. He explained from holy magic is the benevolent counterpart of malicious dark magic to what can be done with holy magic.
Holy magic imposes a considerable burden on the body for good reason, as there is much more to it than elental magic. Life magic as the highest level, origin from healing magic which beca the most powerful and dangerous magic at the sa ti.
Life magic indirectly regulates, assists, or controls sothing or part of the living. Healing magic is not as simple as it seems to be used properly, the user must know the source of the problem in the body that must be helped for healing.
Apart from healing magic, what was commonly used in society was a blessing. Much like Enhancent Magic but done for other people towards sothing they are going to improve or give.
"Right now, we will learn about healing magic at the most basic level by healing small external wounds. You have to know what you have to do with these wounds, stop the bleeding, cover the wound until it is completely healed." Alexander took out a table and took two rabbits from the cage at the end of the room.
"Yes, now these two rabbits are injured. Flow your magic energy into this rabbit's body and direct it to the damage on its skin. If you can find the stream, support it with magic energy to stop the bleeding and help the threads you find afterward to close the wound, then assist it again until the wound is completely closed and healed."
He made a small cut in the body of the two rabbits to make a small wound and put the two rabbits on the table and held them back with magic so they didn't run.
Evelyn had a lot of trouble there and Alexander understood it. anwhile, Elysia and Ella only watched for a mont.
"Don't worry about it, our subject and topic this ti is to find the source of the wound problem with your magic energy flow and find the stream to heal the wound." He comforted Evelyn who failed again and again.
Elysia can easily heal a minor wound on the rabbit with her fake healing magic, greatly impressing Alexander and Ella. She imdiately went over to Evelyn's side and then she took her hand as her friend looked depressed and gloomy.
"Try to do as I learned. Gather your magic energy in your palm first with Hypmond and then connect your magic energy flow to the wound. Keep feeling it until you find the wound. When you find it, the color of the magic energy you emit becos slightly green. Yes like that..."
Elysia is gently guiding Evelyn as the latter is a bit gloomy due to repeated failures and she has finally managed to heal the rabbit's wound when she was directed by her best friend.
"Yay! Ely! I did it! I finally did it! It's all thanks to you!" Evelyn jumped up and hugged her best friend with great joy.
Elysia could only hug her friend back and smile, she was just helping to direct Evelyn and she succeeded herself after failing so many tis.
