Chapter 250 The Essence of Healing… Part-1.

Infirmary, Cafeteria.

“Yeah… they were quite strong; I nearly lost a hand during battle…” (Rio)

“Hoh… so they were somehow able to hit you… with your amazing speed? D*mn! That’s quite an amazing feat, I guess!…” (Link)

Rio didn’t tell him that he purposely took the hit as he was testing out the effects of the spell.

The healers quickly restored all of them to full health after teleportation, and since it is already well past noon, this is the ideal time to eat some snacks and chill with the friends.

Thus, all six of them, including Ellie, came to the infirmary’s cafeteria to have some snacks and drinks.

“But still, I am quite surprised that you were able to defeat two teams all by yourself… Meanwhile I was fooling around the whole time, ugh…” (Link)

Rio shook his head at Link and replied:

“You all kept the Elven team busy, that’s why I wasn’t interrupted mid-fight… Indirectly, we won it together…” (Rio)

A smile appeared on Link’s face after hearing those words.

“Well, that princess is tough… during our fight, she was definitely holding back her full power… Although I didn’t get the chance to use ‘Dao rhythm’ either, I am quite sure that she has some trump cards hidden too…” (Link)

Lia nodded her head and added:

“The elven team really had some skilled fighters, I fought with the three swordsman of their team, they had above average level of skill, if I didn’t had Kai’s blessings, it would have been a tough fight…” (Lia)

At Lia’s words, Rio replied in his usual emotionless tone:

“Kai’s blessings are a part of your own strength; there’s no need to look down on yourself for using a power that clearly belongs to you…” (Rio)

Hearing Rio’s words, Lia nodded her head and a smile appeared on her face.

‘He saw through me, ugh…’ (Lia)

Originally, Lia was quite distressed at the fact that she had to use Kai’s powers to win, she was trying to hide her distress by keeping a normal face; but Rio saw through her façade in an instant.

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm All he needed were a few words to figure out the inner monologue of her mind.

“By the way, where’s Riya? I haven’t seen here anywhere since we came back…” (Lia)

Lia glanced at Link with a doubtful expression.

“Oh, I met that Elf queen earlier; she said that Riya would start her training right away… she likely took Riya away with her; I didn’t even get to talk to Riya after coming back from the battle…” (Link)

“huh? Isn’t the competition still going on? There’s still a few hours before the team battle phase ends, Why did the queen come over so fast? Wasn’t she sitting with the other SS-rankers earlier…” (Lia)

“Father did ask her to be Riya’s mentor; I guess she knew that there wasn’t enough time and wanted to start the training early…” (Link)

Rio nodded his head and said,

“The individual battle phase will be conducted tomorrow and after that, only the reward ceremony will be left… we don’t have a lot of time left here; soon we will be going back home…” (Rio)

Just when Rio said that, Liam and Ellie came over with piles of snacks in their hands and placed them on the table.

Hearing Rio’s words, Liam’s expression turned disappointed.

“Ugh.. I want to stay in the Elven Empire for at least a month! This place is so good and nice!” (Liam)

“Who doesn’t? But we have no choice either… you know that we have been out of the academy for our whole second year, right?” (Link)

“Yeah, we will likely need to concentrate on studies after this… more than half of the second year is already gone… we even skipped the mid-term exams because of this tournament…” (Lia)

“Ugh.. I hate exams…” (Liam)

While eating snacks and drinking juice, everyone started to complain about their tight schedule.

“Will we need to give the midterm exams on a later date then?” (Rio)

Liam shook his head at Rio’s question.

“Nah, It’s very likely that they will consider our performance in this tournament as a way of assessment; we likely have already passed the mid-term exams with how amazing we are doing…” (Liam)

“Phew~ that’s quite the relief; I haven’t studied a lot lately…” (Link)

Liam glared at Link while saying in a scornful tone:

“You dare say that when you have been second in all theory exams! Your marks are far better than ours!” (Liam)

(Kira is the first position holder when it comes to theory and written exams…)

Rio wasn’t surprised at Link’s amazing feats anymore.

He already knew that this guy is just too talented, aside from combat, he has learned various things and has excelled in them all.

Although Ashtel wanted Link to become strong, he certainly didn’t let Link skip his studies.

Link had to study a lot after the final exams last year because Ashtel had grounded him.

Link had skipped his studies a lot during the first year; he didn’t even figure out Alverto’s identity during the final exams event as he didn’t study about monster characteristics.

Ignoring the bickering of Link and Liam, Ellie continued to nibble on the snacks, pretending to be stupid so that no one notices her sneaking more snacks in her own plate.

Lia obviously saw her stealing half of Liam’s food, but didn’t say anything at all.

When Liam finally looked at his plate, it was already empty.

“D*mn bro! How do you eat so fast!? You even at mine?” (Liam)

Liam mistook Rio as the culprit.

Rio has the habit of eating very fast; his plate was already empty while Liam and Link were bickering, and thus Liam thought Rio ate his food too.

“My bad bro, my hand slipped a bit, I guess…” (Rio)

“D*mn! Your hand slips quite a lot!” (Liam)

In the end, Ellie was caught red-handed while she was stuffing her mouth with snacks, and Liam banned her from eating his hand-made food for a whole day.

(Later, she will roll on the ground and force Liam to reduce the ban’s time period…)

…

Meanwhile, around the same time.

The queen’s garden.

“How is it? Is this place to your liking?” (Syvis)

At her question, Riya nodded her head, She glanced all around herself with shining eyes.

“Whoa! This place is filled with high-grade herbs… you can make any type of potions with these many high-grade ingredients!” (Riya)

Riya may be lacking in aspects like ‘common sense’ but none can doubt her prowess in healing and potion making.

Yes, healers can make potions too; it’s just that potions are made in factories nowadays, so there’s not much market for the healers to sell hand-made potions.

This business is basically as good as dead; no healers bother with potion-making anymore nowadays.

Yes, healers can make potions too; it’s just that potions are made in factories nowadays, so there’s not much market for But talented people like Riya are different; she has vast knowledge when it comes to herbs and potion making.

“Whoa! Is that the ‘Red Dragon Mist Petal’!? You have such rare things here!?” (Riya)

Syvis nodded her head and smiled at Riya who was jumping around like an excited bunny.

“This is just a small portion, I used to have a bigger garden… but those two muscle heads destroyed it! Tch!” (Syvis)

The more Riya looked at the garden, the more impressed she became. She stared at Syvis with shining eyes.

“So, when are we starting the training?” (Riya)

“Ah yes, we will do that too… but before that, I need to ask you a question…” (Syvis)

A look of doubt appeared on Riya’s face; she wondered what question an SS-ranker will come up with.

“Yes… let me be clear, though… if you didn’t answer the question in a limited time… You will never be able to leave this garden.” (Syvis)

All of a sudden, the gentle and calm aura around Syvis became solemn and cold. She became distant and dangerous.𝒩ewW 𝒏ovels upd𝒂tes on nov/𝒆l/b(i)𝒏(.)com

At that moment, Riya knew that Syvis was being serious with her. Syvis’s serious face showed that Riya really need to pass the test; otherwise, she would never be able to leave this place.

A look of determination appeared in Riya’s eyes.

“I see… you have the necessary determination already… then we don’t need to go through too much trouble… we can directly skip to the question…” (Syvis)

If it were any other student, Syvis would have needed to use ‘Shady tactics’ to make them determined enough, but as Riya has already understood her own weakness, she didn’t need any other external factor to give her a push.

“My question is simple: What do you think is the essence of healing?” (Syvis)

The temperature in the whole garden suddenly went a lot colder as Syvis displayed her aura of an SS-ranker.

Her words carried a lot of weight; those words alone were enough to make Riya feel confused and bewildered.

“There’s no hurry; the time limit is the reward ceremony… you have to give me an answer before that… if you can’t give me the answer until then… you will stay here in this garden as nutrition for these high-grade herbs…” (Syvis)

Riya gulped her saliva as she felt her throat become dry, She could feel the seriousness of this matter now.

“You know… the reason there’s so few SS-rank healers in this world is because not even 1% of the healers all over the world can understand the essence of healing…” (Syvis)

“Show me if you have what the others don’t; prove your ability through action…” (Syvis)

“Can you do it, lost sheep?” (Syvis)
