“Purifying the forest. Part 2”
Despite the odd looks Gatea occasionally gave Tsuki, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. And Hanna seemed to be a rather reserved woman, so there were no problems on that front.
As soon as they returned to the room with the more recent and less seriously ill, Kalysto put Tsuki back into her inventory while the two guards were not watching her. And, she noticed that the patients who had left, even with the excuse of going to the bathroom to check for more pgue stains in pces too intimate to share with her had already returned, and by the way some of them avoided her gaze, and anyone else’s for more than a second, Kalysto guessed that they found more marks on their bodies.
“Those who had retreated, or I had already checked them before, please come to me,” they slowly did so and began to circle her. Kalysto immediately began to conjure, “Purification Ezhil! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification!” Then she lowered her arms. “Tomorrow I will perform a couple more healings on you. I ask you to check every area of your body very well, especially the soles of your feet and between your toes, I have already found several fairies with signs of the pgue in those areas, so I ask the rest of you not to go barefoot and to check your bodies very well before the st check tomorrow. If you find any traces of the disease, let me know immediately so that I can treat you again. We have made excellent progress so far, but we must not let our guard down, understood?” They all nodded in agreement, some even somewhat reluctantly. Kalysto let them be, however.
Then she went to the small group of those she still needed to check and began the purification incantation.
“Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil purification!” But as soon as he finished, he noticed that he hadn’t reached them all, so he had to approach the end of the group and conjure again. “Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification!” Kalysto had already noticed that although the spell that cured the bck pgue was undoubtedly Jhil, if she used Dispel, and Purification along with it, they accelerated the healing by more than 50%. So she decided to keep using them and force herself to level them up, but no matter how hard she had tried to get all three to level up at the same rate, she had not succeeded.
And she spent the next two hours healing the rest of the sick. It was when she was healing the second-to-st sick person that she finally got one of the things she was looking for. And she checked the collection of notifications she hadn’t seen in the st few hours.
[The Dispel skill has been leveled up!]
[Jhil skill has leveled up!]
[The skill Dispel has leveled up!]
[Jhil’s skill has leveled up!]
[Congratutions! The user has acquired a new skill: Jhil Ezhil. Level 1!]
She immediately turned to the rest of the group.
“Everyone come to me, please! I am going to perform another round of healing. Check if you are being touched by the light of my ability or not. It is important that you make sure that every part of your body is touched. Don’t leave any part out, not even your feet, understood?” It seemed that everyone began to crowd around her a little at her words, but she took it in calmly, “remember that we will still have one st session tomorrow which I will divide into two smaller groups, but for now are you ready?” After hearing a long chorus of ‘yes’, Kalysto took a long drink of mana potion and began to conjure.
“Dispel! Dispel! Dispel! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Dispel! Dispel! Dispel! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Ezhil Purification! Dispel! Ezhil Purification! Jhil Ezhil! Jhil Ezhil!" Were they all touched?” After they answered, she fired two more rounds, just to be sure. And while the golden glow wasn’t as intense this time, it did manage to focus on some people more than others.
Then they’re the ones who need more healing. She noticed that Jhil, unlike her other abilities, only activated when someone needed some kind of healing. And just then, two windows appeared before her.
[Warning: User only has 10 MP left. Please wait a few minutes before attempting to use any ability again or your health will be severely affected.]
And Kalysto smiled.
“ Very well. That’s all for today. Thank you very much for your cooperation and patience," she said, although she would have liked to scold those who had wanted to leave with the excuse of going to the bathroom instead of taking the survey. I hope you have a good night. And I’ll see you tomorrow.”
As soon as she left the small crowd, Gatea approached her.
“Good job, Saintess.”
“Let’s wait for me to check on the group in the morning. After that, I think they can all go home. Could you let Artemis know that I’ll check on her tomorrow as soon as I’m done with this group?”
“Of course. Anything else I can do for you?”
“Can you ask someone to bring me dinner?”
“Of course,” she said, escorting her back to the room they had assigned her.
As soon as dinner was brought to her, she took Tsuki out of inventory, ate, and went to bed.
Well, at least things don’t look as bad as they did before. It was her st thought as she watched the light of the two moons filter through the window of her spacious and luxurious room. And her eyes began to close.
And after letting out a long sigh, feeling the calmness invade every part of her body, a sudden blow against her face, thanks to Tsuki’s tail, whose hairs seemed to stick up her nose, forced her to cough and open her eyes again.
“Tsuki!” she scolded him, but the soft snores coming from the small body told her that he had long since fallen asleep. She let out an undylike grunt and rolled over in bed, turning her back to him.
It’s strange having to share my bed with someone. She thought, before falling asleep again.
