chapter 26
26 – Flora (2)
The dignity of those who passed the special test.
The staggering figure of 3,000 mana that Hockey Guardibi shaved off was enough to bring astonishment to the students.
Considering that even with Laeri’s lightning sword, he couldn’t even scratch a single scratch, it means that he used a technique that was at least 3000 times stronger than hers.
Who the hell did you train with?
At the very least, he already knew when he took the special test that he was different from the idiots wandering the streets claiming that he was an adventurer, but he couldn’t figure out his true identity at all.
I’ve never seen an adventurer using a scythe since he was trained by a knight or a high-ranking adventurer.
I thought about it for a while, but eventually decided not to care.
Because I don’t know now anyway. I can’t help it.
Well, by the way, now who is left? See…
“Flora.”
She’s the last one. This kid… Doesn’t really have any weapons… Is he only familiar with basic magic? Well, since she’s a commoner, she wouldn’t have had a chance to learn so far, so she couldn’t help it.
…Huh? Did you start attending the Department of Divine Power from yesterday? It must have come out of the attribute modification.
Judge-
Then Flora, a green-haired girl who had heard her name, stepped in front of her.

“Student Flora, please come in.”
Professor Andri from the magic class called Flora.
Today’s magic class was a time to check the magic that suits one’s aptitude through property modification.
Professor Andri said that there could be some students who didn’t want to show it to other students, so he called one by one into the room during class.
“Now, put your hand on it.”
“Yes.”
Flora placed her hand on the attribute crystal in front of her eyes.
“Now you need to move the power within your body and infuse it into the crystal. Can you do that?”
“No, I’ve never tried it, so I’m not sure.”
“Really? It’s okay, I’ll help you. Close your eyes?”
As Professor Andri said, Flora closed her eyes. Seeing that, Andriy turned to Flora’s back and put her hand on her back.
“Now, I’ll bring out the power in your body. Then you can feel the movement of that power and manipulate it so that you can use it freely.”
“Yes.”
Flora felt something in her begin to flow where Andri’s hand met her back.
“Hey!”
Flora, spurred on by the unfamiliar feeling she felt for the first time, let out a moan in surprise.
‘I made an embarrassing sound! I’m embarrassed….’
“hahahaha, it’s okay. Most people who feel magic for the first time do that.”
Flora, blushing for a moment, closed her eyes again. She then felt something within her begin to move. From her back to her chest, face, arms, legs and hands.
“I brought out the power that exists within you. But it’s you, not me, who moves that power. Flora. Now, try controlling it?”
“Yes.”
Flora must have been nervous, and his heart was beating.
“How is Flora? Does it move?”
“No, I’m going to try it… But it doesn’t work…”
“Your heart beats loudly. The reason you can’t move right now is because you’re afraid of your power. The child in your body is your partner, companion, and friend. Think that way and move slowly. Listen to your words. I will listen.”
‘Partner… Friend…’
Don’t be intimidated. Do not deny power, accept it.
With her mind calmed down, she gradually seemed to know her tricks.
Slowly, gently, Flora reached out and guided her felt self-strength, like handling her little child.
A change has begun to occur in attribute modification. Andri, who watched the scene, smiled and said.
“Okay! Good job!”
Flora looked at her self-attribute correction. Since she has been injected, the attributes of her power will come out soon. Her pounding heart watched the change.
Woe -!
A bright light spread throughout the room.
“Flora, the medium that made up your power was not magical power, but divine power.”
“Divine power?”
“Church priests and paladins possess divine power, but as you know, the leader of Astria, a famous S-class party, ‘Serie Aporte’, who is said to be a saint possessed by God, also uses divine power.”
“Serie Aporte…!”
Of course I know. Because it’s famous.
“But… The light is too bright.”
“Is it bright?”
“Yes, I don’t know since it’s the first time I’ve seen divine power coming out of attribute crystals, but you’re the brightest out of all the students I’ve seen.”
“Is it better to be bright?”
“It’s good, because it means strong and plentiful. But this is a lot. Flora, maybe you are loved by God.”
“I love God?”
“Yes.”
“Anyway, that’s…”
“Why? You never know. You might become a saint who can surpass that celery aporte. Anyway, if you have this kind of divine power, you can’t let it rot. Flora, you’ll also go to the department of divine power starting today. I’ll apply for you instead. “
“Oh, I see.”
Flora thought as she listened to Andri’s words.
‘I could have something better than other students…!’
Really… I’m so glad!

In the first divine power class that day, thanks to the strong and abundant divine power, there were two magics that could be mastered in one day.
[Healing] And [Magical Recovery]
Literally, healing is healing the wounds of the body, and mana recovery is the ability to restore exhausted mana.
‘Should I use Healing or Magic Recovery?’
Flora looked at the huge magic stone in front of her.
‘Healing is healing the wounds of the body. A stone like this would be of no use.’
Then, all that was left was to recover mana.
Flora put her hand on the magic stone and said.
“Magic power… Recovery!”
The instant she cried out, her white light turned. Finishing her magic, she looked at Professor Ichle.
‘The result is…’
There was a feeling. There was a certain feeling that the mana stone’s mana was being restored.
Flora expected. A newcomer to combat, the only thing he could do was study, the field he first heard he had talent for. So he practiced 12 hours a day, even reducing the amount of time he slept alone, even yesterday, when he first learned.
That’s why she was looking forward to it.
But.
“0.”
The reality was grim.
“Ah…”
I definitely felt it.
Lee Chul, who was watching him, opened his mouth.
“When did I tell you to restore your mana? What I asked you to do was to reduce your mana.”
In the first place, the points were off.
‘Ah…’
Flora bowed her head.
However, Ichul’s voice that followed made her raise her head again.
“But it’s amazing. To recover 1000 mana from a mana stone.”
1000! It was a huge number. With the exception of hockey, all the students used the greatest single skill they could to restore all the mana they had lost.
What a crazy talent.
Not as much as that year-old tax collector, but Flora’s talent could have been better considering her time in learning.
“Then, everyone did a great job. . . First place, hockey guard, please go to the staff room. And… Flora, you did the opposite of the task you were supposed to do, but I’ll give you a special prize because I highly value your ability.”
Hearing my words, Flora looked like she was moved. …Actually, it’s only a matter of time.
Things piled up in subspace and not used. Still, she’ll be what she needs, so that’s fine.
I approached Flora and took out an object.
“Is it a necklace?”
Seeing the object in my hand, she asked me.
“Yes, it is a necklace made exclusively for Priests. You can draw out or contain divine power, and as a healer, you should never be the first to fall. I don’t have one, so if you become an adventurer later, at least use it.”
With that said, I handed the necklace to Flora.
“…Thank you.”
She took her necklace in disbelief and she caressed it, keeping her eyes on it.
Since it has crystals in it, it looks like something girls will like. I understand.
But isn’t it just watching too much?
I gave it to you.
