Dream Love : Dream Land - Chapter 138

“Keep focusing on that. Think that this is a life and death situation. Like you are in a war.”

Today, Irene was taken by Adele into the forest and told her to heal the animals they found injured there. From the smallest insects to the largest are the deer they happen to encounter.

This is already the twenty times Jieun heals using her power there and her limit is finally reached. After she finishes, she continues to sit on the forest floor panting while Adele inspects the animals as a whole before letting them go.

“Your stamina was getting better than two days ago. Its a good progress.” Adele said to her. Yes. This is the second time Adele ask her to do this and Jieun  didn’t really know why. It’s not just a matter of stamina, is it?

She wanted to ask as her curiosity level is high, but before the training began, Adele already makes her to promise that she can’t ask her anything regarding her teaching techniques. And Jieun had to agree there because she really, really wants to learn under her even though she knows herself better than anyone. She is the ‘curious freak’! So she just settled with biting her tongue there.

“All the animals and insects you cured earlier are all in good condition. Just like the other day. I didn’t have to do anything. Looks like you taught yourself well.” Adele said with a smile.

Jieun face blush a little now. Feeling a little embarrassed by the compliment that she get.

“But, your power if you don’t use it properly can threaten your own life.”

She look a little surprised there after hearing the news.

“Why do you say that?”

“You see, I saw a pattern when you heal. A simple task will be no problem, but with very serious cases you might restrain your body much. Have you ever used this power until you fainted?” Adele asked there.

Jieun make an effort to remember.  Searching for her memory inside her head.

“Probably twice.”    She make an acknowledgment there.

“Did you take a long time to get up after that?”

“I think yes.”  She seem to remember that she sleep for more than 10 hours before after using her power.

Adele nodded while thinking of something there.

“When you use your power, at the highest level, I can see that your blood vessel is in tense, so strong, also you heart pumping so hard making it hard for you to breath. My diagnosis by seeing you are, this power is not resulting in everyday healing but in urgent times. Probably in battle. ”

“Does that mean I can’t do this so often?”

“I believe you will have no problem using that eye of you to inspect the inside of the organ, but your hand…” Adele held her hand there.

“A glow that coming out from here… You need to be careful in using it. Like you said. You can’t use this power to yourself but to other people or other creature only. So you need to take care of yourself more.”

Jieun looked at her hand that was now released by her teacher. She didn’t know that this power could be so difficult.

“And it also means that you have to read more and study more in your college to succeed in becoming a doctor. To heal in a manual way. Also, you can learn about how people of Elysium Land do the healing. Combining all of that, you will be a great healer in no time. ”

“Can I learn about that? Like what people in Elysium Land do?  Will you teach me?” Jieun really feel a bit excited there.

“I was told by Queen Anna to teach you, didn’t I? So of course I will.”

Jieun cannot hide her happiness and started smile in wide there, but suddenly what Adele just said started coming back into her mind. There’s no way people in this world said a word ‘doctor’ right?

“Can I ask you something Miss Adele?” Jieun start asking.

“Anything except my way of teaching is fine.” Adele said her agreement.

Jieun get up from her seat and start shaking her clothes which are now dirty with soil.  Then she properly look at Adele before asking.

“Are you on Queen Anna side? And how do you know about me, who is now learning to become a doctor?”

Adele smiled there. She thought that this girl will never ask her that as it already take a while before the girl realizing what she just saying. It’s just a bait. As she need Jieun to trust her more and fast.  They didn’t really have a time for a distrust.

“Whoever come and go to this part of the world, higher people in Elysium Land will know about that as this is one of our speciality and of course because of that, I know about you. You can think of us as a protector of this world.”

Higher people? Protector? That time Jieun realize that her teacher here is not just a regular someone and the Elysium Land that she only heard all this time probably not the same kind of land as this, Dream Land.

“I know about your life story and yes, you can say that I am on Anna’s side. We know each other for so long now. Before she married King Liam. We still maintain a good friendship even after King Liam decided not to again working with us. ”

“Is that mean that you know my mother too?” Jieun being bold now in asking.

Adele paused a bit there before confirming.

“We are not close. But I saw her when she lived in Elysium Land quite a long time and commuted to Dream Land while these two lands still have political ties. She is respected even in Elysium Land and most people there know about her.”

Jieun seems a little disappointed in there, but also proud after knowing about her mother. She thought Adele might be close to her mother. But knowing that she is not that close with her mother make she cannot say more to this matter.

But suddenly she remembers something that she really needs to ask. Since they are now quite far from the palace, Jieun feels this is the best opportunity for her to ask about things that are bothering her this past few weeks now. About her probably new power.

“That day, when the mysterious group attacks me and Mia, I didn’t really remember what happen, but Eun-Woo told me that, I suddenly snap and a new power resurface.”

Adele raised her eyebrows there. She was a little curious to know what power Jieun meant at this point.

“What kind of power?” She told Jieun to continue her conversation.

“Eun-Woo said that I suddenly change in my appearance. With silver hair and white eyes and my whole body seem to be emit a very bright light that protect them from the group attack. The group even shocked and can’t do anything about that. And I kill one of them in that form. But the truth is… I didn’t remember what is actually happening. Do you… ever meet something like that? Do you know something like that? ” Jieun hope Adele can help there.  Provide her some answer.

But Adele looks frozen in her place right now.

“Miss Adele?” Jieun touching her a little to wake her up.

“Huh? Oh…” Adele cannot lie about this matter, but she also cannot tell Jieun the truth yet. At least not until she gets a permission from that person.

“What’s wrong? Do you remember something similar in my case?” Jieun  asking again.

“I can’t say its similar but I do hear about that kind of power. But, I need to research about that first. I’m sorry that I can’t be any help but I promise to tell you anything if I ever find something.”

For that Jieun just be satisfied there. Although she didn’t get the really good answer, but at least there was a beginning.

Adele returns to Elysium Land in a hurry there and continues to enter the castle. She continued to bow there when confronted with the person she wanted to meet there.

“The greatest, I Adele The Just, came to facing you.”

A very handsome man who is feeding his cats, wearing a white royalty cloak, with silver hair at shoulder level and have a bright black eyes there looked at Adele who is not seeing his eyes there.

“No need for that sister. We are alone here.” He said there.

But even so, Adele can’t afford to drop the full formality as he is their King anyway.

“Lord Ivan, I got some news about Lady Jieun.”

The man stops whatever that he is doing after hearing the name and stands upright there.

“What about her? Is everything okay?” The tone of the man’s voice sounded a bit worried.

“She is fine, but my lord… It seems like she is beginning to have your power, but didn’t know how to control on that. What we should do?”

The news making Lord Ivan seem to stop breathing for a moment.
