Blood Elf Monarch - Chapter 396: Healing

After Tristan’s success in curing Kolvar and King Ivaasar of the terrible poison, Callan invited them to go to the hideout used by King Castian and the surviving elves.

Together they flew away from the ruins of the gigantic pillar, without a sound. They flew past the edge that was out of reach of the god-serpent Jormungand.

Callan led the way.

With his enhanced sense, Tristan could see from a distance the position of Jormungand, who had returned to the way he had first seen him, wrapping his giant body on a throne.

The monster looked unharmed. And even though the two guardian monsters that had always guarded him had not returned to him, the monster still seemed to remain calm.

The hiding place chosen by the other elves was a giant tree hidden because of its position. It was covered by other small trees, which were very numerous and irregular in position.

Tristan could see King Castian and Hanz, who had gotten injured from the previous battle, leaning against one of the branches of the big tree.

“We’re back.” King Vizier landed before the expedition leader, heavily guarded by Osgiliath.

“Kolvar? How could that be?” King Castian said “Bless to the Ancestor for keeping you alive”  Kolvar stood before him with half his body bowed to pay homage to the king.

“What did happened?”

Osgiliath didn’t seem to expect to be able to meet the elder once again. However, after he looked at him more closely, he realized that there was a change in strength in Kolvar’s body.

“What happened?” King Castian still had a lot of questions, even so, his eyes gleamed brightly seeing that the elder had returned alive.

Tristan was proud to see the king’s expression, as long as no one brought up the spirit soul he had sucked in to revive Kolvar and create an immortal body for him, he would be safe.

However, his very sharp ears heard Osgiliath whisper to the king, “Kolvar, his strength is changing, I can feel it, my king”

As if Osgiliath’s whisper was a signal, King Castian immediately forced his body to stand up and touched Kolvar with both hands.

“My King, you are still injured.” said Kolvar walking up to the king first and letting the king touch his body, checking that what Osgiliath said was true.

And Tristan was sure, he could see a trace of disappointment on the king’s face when he realized that Kolvar, the elder’s strength was not what it used to be.

“What really happened?” King Castian looked at those who had just arrived with Kolvar one by one inquiringly. And his gaze stopped at Tristan, the blood elf who looked the most suspicious.

Even so, he didn’t have enough evidence to speak.

“Let the blood elf heal your wounds first, King Castian.” Callan made a suggestion. But before Tristan could do anything, Osgiliath had already stepped forward with a very wary look.

“I am only here to help”

“I didn’t know you could heal people. Why don’t you try it on the warrior before moving on to the king.” Osgiliath was very protective of the king, and Kolvar seemed motivated to do the same.

However, considering that Tristan was the one who had just saved him from a very long death, this time Kolvar’s loyalty seemed to be split in two.

Hanz, who had been silent for a while, was still leaning on one of the tree branches while occasionally letting out a grunt of pain.

Tristan could detect the presence of a very thin poison content from the bodies of King Castian and Hanz. It was the same poison as the poison he sucked from King Ivaasar’s body.

Due to the presence of the poison, the natural healing of the two elves’ immortal bodies was disrupted. And even though they had been assisted with previous healing spells, the elf was still suffering from the pain of the wound that would not close.

[Blood Mastery – Blood Extraction]

Tristan didn’t have to wait for anyone’s order to start his action in front of the magus level elves.

He did the same as what was done to King Ivaasar’s body. But for now, he used blood essence to work directly on the open wounds on Hanz’s skin to absorb the poison. It was so his body could regenerate the skin and cells that had been damaged inside quickly. Thus, wounds on Hanz’s body instantly disappeared.

His skin was covered again without a trace of wound. And he was awaken, confused by the pain that suddenly disappeared.

“How did you do it, blood elf? Extraordinary. I don’t feel anything.” Hanz tried to move all his muscles to check more closely about the condition of his body after being healed by Tristan.

“You’re welcome.”

Tristan flashed a proud smile at the other elves, who were also amazed by his actions.

What remained of the magus level elves included the expedition leader, King Castian, along with his two high elve elders, Osgiliath and Kolvar. King Vizier as the only dark elve, Queen Leena and King Ivaasar of the wood elves, and lastly, the demi-human elves Callan and his trusted warrior, Hanz.

“Your turn, King Castian.”

After seeing Tristan’s proof for himself, Osgiliath moved aside to open Tristan’s way to the king.

“Don’t worry, King Castian. This procedure has no pain.”

Despite looking doubtful at Tristan’s words, King Castian didn’t move from where he was standing while waiting for Tristan to do something to his body.

[Blood Mastery – Blood Extraction]

King Castian could feel the pain slowly rising as Tristan started sucking his poison-infected blood and replacing it with his high-quality blood essence, thereby accelerating the regeneration of cells in the king’s body and the wounds on his body moving to close in seconds.

“You are right, I feel no pain.” King Castian looked amazed and disbelieving.

Meanwhile, King Vizier seemed to be proud of Tristan’s healing abilities.

Even so, since earlier, there was only one person who kept moving in the gathering.

Kolvar, he repeatedly checked his armor as if he was looking for something. But, well, he never managed to find it.

“Did anyone see my spirit bottles?”
