Chapter 145 An Angel As A Spirit?
-----
I had detected from the very beginning that Elisabeth's was unusual, her aura of heaven light was one part of it, but I quickly realized she was just a normal girl that had been raised with care by this old man and the other priests. What gave me this uneasiness wasn't exactly her, but what she had within her. This spirit… the spirit that I sensed; this was it.
When it finally was summoned, a Seraphin showed up, resembling a young boy of four or five, it looked angelic, and was wearing a toga and golden sandals. He had a pair of feathered white wings. His hair was blonde and long, and his eyes aquamarine. All while holding a golden arrow and a bow with his hands. This was the "heavenly Seraphin". This was a spirit, yet for me, it was indescribably an angel.
First of all, how did an angel end up here of all places? What happened in this place? How come an angel appeared here? It doesn't make any sense, right? Yet here we are, this angel appeared in front of me without any other question about it. It was just that, an angelic spirit. How come an angel became a spirit? Did it die and was reincarnated as one? Could he be similar to Eleanora in that regard? There were many questions inside of my head, but the Seraphin seemed relaxed, without even minding me. He smiled warmly and gently, petting Elisabeth's head.
"This is Elisabeth's Heavenly Seraphin, her spirit has been helping her survive since she was born and abandoned into the orphanage." Said Ellergest. "This spirit is both strong, fast, and also possesses the ability to heal by itself. It has some strange magic which she had inherited, but we are still having a hard time finding ways to make her create spells using it. It appears that their magic is an even holier version than holy light magic or something… But she's not that good at helping as of now due to the limitations of the spells she has yet to learn… Though, her Seraphin is strong and can fight. What do you have in mind, Blank?"
"Hmm…"
What do I have in mind? Well, it is quite simple, I will use the holy power of this Seraphin and my own Qi, and fuse them together to form Heavenly Qi, a special Qi that can be made using Heaven element and Qi. It is incredible powerful but if used correctly, it won't hurt the body, and it will disintegrate the demon blood and the demon energy with ease as well.
But I cannot tell him that, of course, so I have to come out with a lie that doesn't sound like one, I will just not mention the details but tell him the truth. After all the best lies are those that have a lot of truth to them.
"I will use Seraphin's holy powers with my magic. I believe I can create a special light that can traverse inside her body and disintegrate the demon blood and energy inside." I said. "It will be difficult though, and we might need your assistance, so I will need you to help me too."
"Hmmm, I see. You've healed many people before…" He said. "I guess we can give it a shot, she's already about to pass away if we don't do anything now."
Ellergest quickly decided to help, but he didn't summon his spirit yet. It seems that for some reason he was trying to not summon it. I wondered what sort of weird spirit he had, or something.
"Why don't you summon your spirit?"
"My spirit is too big, if I summon him, he'll destroy this entire room… He's strong, and can heal too, but this space is too narrow, we would waste too much time bringing her outside too, and it would be for nothing, my spirit can heal but not poison." Said Ellergest. "I also have a second spirit, which is just as big."
"I see…" I said. Right, Ellergest is a Rank 2 Spirit Master, each Rank a person has grants them a new spirit to use, which can be either summoned through the usage of materials, the corpse of another monster, or sometimes they emerge naturally.
"My Seraphin said that he's willing to help!" Said Elisabeth. "B-But only if you become my friend!" Elisabeth began to talk nonsense like the little girl she was. I didn't know if the Seraphin really told her that or she was making it up, but Ellergest looked at me while nodding. For some reason I feel like I was being set up for some sort of scheme, but I did not have the time to analyze this for now, and I ended up agreeing to her simple request.
"Sure, whatever." I said. "I'll become your friend if we can heal her."
"Really?" Asked Elisabeth, as her eyes shone brightly with excitement.
"…Yes." I sighed. "Now, touch my shoulder, You too, old man."
"Don't call me old man!" Said Ellergest, as he touched my right shoulder while Elisabeth touched my left shoulder. I asked them to channel their magic power into my own body, and Elisabeth began to use her own spirit for that. The spirit magically infused its spiritual Aether energies into her, converging her mana into the Heaven Element.
The moment I received the two streams of powerful elemental mana, I felt as if I was being overflowed with energy and power. I calmed myself down as much as possible as I looked at the woman in front of us. She was pale and on the verge of death. I had to hurry if I wanted my pay. I gritted my teeth and then I gathered these energies into my chest, where the Qi Core is located, and then combined them with my Qi and slowly began to refine this Qi into Heaven Qi, until a sizable portion was made after around five minutes of patiently waiting… The two watched what I was doing with astonishment.
