Chapter 31: Healing Class

“The user successfully created the Combined Skill [Sparkling Sword]”

“The user upgraded the Battle Skill [Tri-sword] to Level 4.”

“The user upgraded the Magic Skill [Spark] to Level 4.”

Yale failed to emulate the Combined Skill [Tri-sparkling sword], but his merge of Spark with the sword was a complete one.

“Sparkling Sword Level 1: Infuse sparks of lightning into a sword. Thunder Element. Battle Skills can’t be used at same time. Consumes 1 Origin Point for every 10 seconds. Mastery at level 20.”

Yale let out a sigh inwardly after seeing the skill’s description, the power of a sword infused with the Spark spell will increase compared to a regular sword. But the fact of being unable to use it with Battle Skills and the high cost depressed him a bit.

However, he upgraded two levels Tri-sword and Spark due to the failed attempt, with only one more level each one Yale would be able to learn the true Tri-sparkling sword.

Yale returned to his chair under the shocked gaze of the whole class. He hadn’t changed his expression since he stood up until he returned to his seat, all his emotions were only on the inside.

Since he awakened the Last Wish System, he became used to that to avoid seeming a weird kid who changes his facial expression without reason.

That made Yale surpass George in the bets and became the favorite for being the first to make a breakthrough.

The Thunder Elemental Class did end with Yale’s shocking display, and only five students including Yale remained in the class. He yet again was the only guy.

The reason for that was the next class, the Healing Class and it wasn’t some lesson someone without any talent would dare to go.

The teacher for that lecture was an old woman who gave a warm feeling when looking at her.

The old teacher asked the name of her five students. The Healing Class was very different from the others, the relationship between teacher and students were stronger than in the other lessons.

The teachers usually only ask about students name when they did something worthy of praise or something wrong.

However, anyone who had the intention to learn about healing magic was someone who was worthy of remembering and nurture. Even if it was only for the goodwill of trying to learn how to cure, healing magic was complicated, and so was in lack of healers.

All the five students already attended other classes, so there weren’t any new faces.

Besides Yale and Aizu who attended all the lessons, two were girls participated in the Light and Fire Elemental Classes, while the other one only went to the Water Elemental Class.

The Healing Class also had a different format than the other classes; there was no time to show any spells.

The teacher herself was who made the demonstrations using harmless injured beasts.

Even Ange had only managed to unconsciously heal an injured beast one time due to the enlightenment she had the first time she came into contact with the healing magic. However, without the effects of the enlightenment, even she was unable to heal others at the 1-star.

Thus, there was no way that any student could show any spell in this lesson.

Although the teacher had heard about how Yale healed himself after being brunt, she wouldn’t let him get harmed again only to verify it.

Furthermore, as Yale was Ange’s little brother, it wasn’t strange if he was able to do so.

The teacher knew that Ange cared a lot about her little brother, as long as Yale had some talent Ange could have taught him some self-healing spell in advance.

In her lecture, the teacher explained a lot about the different types of healing; there were three main types: light healing, water healing, and natural healing.

The first two used different element spells with healing properties to restore the body of the target.

The third one could be considered pure healing and was the fastest of them all.

Although, it had a huge weakness; it can only accelerate the normal restoring of a body.

Even if it could speed the recovery a lot and then became extremely useful in battle, it was also the type which could have left more sequela to the target.

For example, if someone lost a limb and the healer used light healing magic, it could still be restored. But with natural healing magic, it will only close the wound, leaving the other types of healing magic unable to regrowth it.

Then it was important to know when was a more fitting type of spell to use.

In a battle in case of only normal wounds, the best was using natural healing as it would be the fastest and even if it left scars in the body that wasn’t a problem to live well.

But, if someone lost a limb or an organ unless the situation was too chaotic to spend time with light or water healing the natural healing must be avoided.

A healer would also need to think about the future of the patient and not only in the current situation.

The first half of the class was all about the definition of the types of healing, their effects, and morals of a healer, all theoretical.

In the second half, the teacher started to show her healing magic to the students using it on the injured beasts.

The five students stood up and went closer to her to carefully observe all the changes while the healing magic took effect on the beasts.

Yale observed the three main types of healing, and his own perception about the healing spells increased a lot.

However, there was a doubt in his mind that only grew bigger as the lesson continued.

What kind of healing was his Auto-regeneration?

Even if it was a Passive Skill, Yale thought that it was still a healing spell, and after hearing the lesson, Yale had no more doubts about it.

However, the Passive Skill didn’t fit well in any of the main categories.

When Yale restored with Auto-regeneration, there was no visible element on him. So the common thought would be it was natural healing spell, but Yale was sure that Auto-regeneration wasn’t one of the natural healing spells.

The wounds he suffered in the battle against the Fire-wood Tiger were far too severe to heal entirely by natural means. So if Auto-regeneration were that kind of healing type, Yale would have a lot of scars after that battle, but his skin was perfect.

Yale started to remember the time when he awakened from his slumber and discovered that new skill and how it had helped him a lot after that, Auto-regeneration was one of his most useful skills.

As Yale became lost in his thoughts, the teacher realized that Yale wasn’t paying attention to the class.

She had expected a lot from Yale as he was Ange’s little brother, then she was disappointed to see him distracted in the midst of the class.

Yale didn’t know what the teacher was thinking about him as his mind didn’t stop analyzing Auto-regeneration, but he was unable to discover more about it.

“Why I am unable to recognize how it works? I can understand being unable to recognize how Absolute Protection works as it uses the Time Law. But how is that I’m not even able to understand what type of healing is my own Passive Skill?”

Yale shouted that sentence in his mind and started to feel that he had not enough talent to heal spells.

However, just at that moment, he felt like if a bolt of lightning struck him.

The truth appeared in his mind, he had the answer in front of him the entire time, in another skill he learned the same day as Auto-regeneration and in which he obtained a bit of enlightenment before.

All his wounds restore themselves until it was as if they never happened but it was impossible to see any elemental effect, the answer was simple.

Time.

Auto-regeneration was a time-based healing skill.

Yale could heal himself perfectly because Auto-regeneration restores his body to his peak erasing anything harmful from him.

There were still things Yale still didn’t understand because Auto-regeneration wasn’t as simple as reverting the time of the wounds but understanding its relation to the time was already a significant step.

However, he obtained Auto-regeneration as the effect of absorbing too many healing magic, Yale didn’t know how it ended as a time-based healing skill.

Yale could only think of one reason for that. The system had altered it to work based on time rather than on common elements or pure natural healing.

However, Yale was wrong. The type of healing he received the most while he was unconscious was time-based healing magic.

That was Ange’s most powerful healing magic, and its relation to the time element was only known by Sainac and the top healers of the academy and was considered top-secret.

Even though Ange still had difficulties in casting that type of healing spell, she spared no effort in healing Yale, and thus her magic was the one who influenced Auto-regeneration the most.

As Yale was in his enlightenment, the teacher was glaring at him with displeasure, and even Yale’s classmates were thinking to tell him something to take him back to reality.

However, before anyone could interact with Yale, ripples of energy emanated from his body, hitting the teacher, the already healed beasts, and all the students.

Four students sensed nothing special about the ripples, but Aizu and the teacher’s faces changed.

Aizu was just beside Yale, and the effect of the ripples that affected her was also the strongest.

She could felt that all the remains of her previous backlash had disappeared entirely from her body, even sequela that should last for some time were utterly erased in an instant.

The teacher didn’t have any injury, but she was very sensitive to any healing magic, and when she sensed those ripples she knew that they were an unconscious form of healing magic.

Furthermore, those ripples resembled the ones Ange emanated in her enlightenment years before.

At that moment she understood that Yale wasn’t distracted, he obtained enlightenment like his sister years ago. Even if it wasn’t at first sight of a healing spell like Ange, Yale still obtained enlightenment about healing while he was at the 1-star.
