Ch. 75 - Aoi's Ability

When I said, "Take over the treatment," Cameron and the students widened their eyes in surprise. Even Alabarta blinked in astonishment, while Strass and Cote nodded in understanding.

"Can you heal him?" Strass asked.

I answered confidently that there was no problem.

"Please wait a moment. You need to think carefully before speaking. This is Maple Leaf’s Holy City Magic Academy. We pride ourselves on being second to none in healing magic. It's not appropriate to make light of us…" Cameron, who had been speaking calmly, suddenly started ranting, clearly annoyed.

However, there was no time to listen to what was likely to be a long lecture.

Without responding, I moved next to the examination table, stood beside a female student in tears, and placed a hand on the young man. As I checked the injury, I imagined it in a healed state, visualizing the internal organs accurately in their normal condition, and infused mana into him.

"[Water of Life, Ordwyle]."

As I cast the spell, the areas where my mana permeated began to heal according to the image in my mind. Accompanied by a soft glow, the young man's wounds closed.

"W-what is this…?" Cameron sounded bewildered, likely because he had never seen this spell before.

The students stared in astonishment at the young man's healed body.

"He's lacking blood."

Although there was no immediate danger, it was unlikely he would regain consciousness soon. Thinking this, I took out an emergency pill, a secret elven medicine taught to me by Owen.

I placed the pill in the unconscious young man's mouth and looked around. "Is there any water? Drinking water."

"Ah, y-yes!" The female student standing beside me quickly grabbed a cup of water and handed it to me.

"Thank you." I took the cup, opened the young man's mouth, and poured some water in. Then I gently lifted his head to help him swallow.

Hearing a slight gulp, I confirmed that he had swallowed the pill.

"…What did you do?"

Just as I sighed with relief that the treatment was in time, Cameron's suspicious voice reached my ears.

"I treated the injury. The last medicine was to stimulate certain internal organs to aid in blood production, as he had lost a lot of blood. He should regain consciousness in a few minutes," I explained.

He walked over to me with a stern expression. "Impossible. He was severely injured, and even if we could heal the surface wounds, full recovery wouldn’t be so simple…"

Cameron looked at me with skeptical eyes, but as if to mock his disbelief, the young man opened his eyes slightly and exhaled.

"Ugh…ugh…"

Hearing his voice, the two students quickly checked his pulse and chest.

"H-he's alive!"

"His heartbeat is getting stronger! He'll be fine!"

After they confirmed the young man's safety, they smiled in relief.

Strass and Cote also exhaled deeply.

"Ah, who are you?" Cameron looked at me and asked for my identity, his previous confidence gone.

But I had already introduced myself. So all I could do was repeat what I had said before. "As introduced at the beginning, I am a senior teacher from Fiddiq Academy. Also, if I must say, I am a disciple of Owen Millers."

Cameron gritted his teeth. Then he turned away from me and looked down at the young man lying on the examination table. "I thought this special room would be sufficient for your tour of our academy, but I underestimated you. I didn't expect you to be so capable at healing magic that you could even be a senior teacher at our academy."

"I don’t specialize in healing magic. It's hard to say what I'm best at, but my main research is magic circles, so I might be most skilled at crafting magical tools." I shook my head slightly and modestly corrected Cameron's misunderstanding

Both Cameron and the students, as well as Alabarta, froze in place.

"… Alabarta-san, didn't you see me using ice magic before?" I asked out of curiosity.

Alabata frowned and placed a hand on his forehead. "I did see that. But I never thought your specialty was crafting magical tools. You also used flight magic…"

While Alabata seemed to be struggling with this new information, I turned back to Cameron. "Next, I would like to observe a lecture on magic."

Cameron frowned and nodded without a word.
