Chereads / Vengeance of the Fallen Magus / Chapter 16 - Blind Slash (Part 2)

Chapter 16 - Blind Slash (Part 2)

'Defensive or Healing magic won't make your head hurts. Not even for someone who has the nerve defect like me would have that experience.' Chris muttered in his mind as the Lady stated about that.

He was placed his left thumb on his mandible, thinking about the reason why? But, he could not be able to remember it, which led him to mutter,

'I remember that there was someone in the southern continent who had managed to use the magic without rune magic with the same condition with me. But, I forgot how he did it.'

Thus, the Lady smiled at him as she stared at the man's face from her sky-blue-colored iris, stated.

"It's fine, Chris. We can try to find that out later. But, it's pretty surprising that you had triggered the Soothing Slice by accident."

She moved her legs in a few inches synchronously, from left to right, moving close to the Dragon Guy, who named Chris Jansen.

As both of them were facing close, the Lady requested on him.

"How about we are going to the magus guild instead? Since you have a year of expulsion. And I'm your homeroom lecturer as well, which I had to share the burden with you."

'Hmm… Lein was right. Theory won't help much. I had many theories in my brain that accumulated for a century's worth of knowledge before I was getting killed by my comrades. But, it will be pointless as well if I don't try to check it out once again.' He muttered to himself as he agreed with her about applying themselves to the guild.

But, there were other problems that they would need to face, which led Chris to ask her.

"You will need a license from the institute if you want to join the guild, will you?"

She nodded her head up and down, waving her blonde hair violent yet, gentle at the same time.

She explained to the dragon-man as she had known that he would say that,

"To be said it originally. We will need to have the Magus license, which only obtainable after graduating from the institute. Meanwhile, we need to do another test again to ensure that we had the right to join the guild. Or else, we would only be able to have the only choice. Which…"

'Dark Guild… Astraeus guild. I know what she wanted to say. A few centuries ago. I was dropped out of the institute after clashed with the professors. Loki was following me to join that guild which led us to know Krista and Ast, at that time…'

"Urgh!!" Chris shriek at the pain that he would experience again.

Some words had been out from his mouth as he shrieked. He was spouting it in a shivering tone.

"You…"

"You!!!"

"Loki!!!"

A horrible memory showing a disturbing memory of a mistreated woman by the bearded man who seemed to be close to him vaguely flashed in his mind.

Saying,

'Won't you enjoy it, Chris? Come on! We are buddies here! Let's solve this bitch away!'

'We must not do this, Loki! We may be under the dark guild. But we can't behave like them!'

'In the same time, you need to be merciless. Like…'

"CHRIS!!"

He snapped out of confusion and the disorientation that happened to him.

"Are you alright, Chris?" The Lady asked him from his back with a softer tone as her delicate right hand had touched his right shoulder.

He was blinking for a while. But from his point of view, it was a lady who had went injured badly seen by him, with a stab mark on her right shoulder, telling him with a heavy breathed tone,

"These injures are nothing. As long as you are safe there, Chris."

Chris stepped back with a shocked expression was drawn on his face.

"What had happened?" He asked in a fearful expression.

He was shaking in fear of hurting someone he cherished most. He looked back, which was a lady in eye-glass who he had known in the class.

"Calm down, Chris. You had stabbed her by accident when you were shocked in trauma. What happened to you?" Elea, the woman who the guy looked at, questioning him.

"I don't know… There are too many horrible dreams that were running amok in my mind. But, can you help Lein first? I want to calm myself…"

She smacked his head by using her head. It led Chris to squeak into a feeling of painfulness that he had experienced in his head, closing his right eye tightly.

Thus, she told him.

"She can heal herself easily. But you are the one who I should tick off with!" She yelled at him in a nagging tone.

In the meantime, she grabbed his shoulders. She told him,

"First. Don't join the Dark Guild. Just join my guild, and my dad will arrange everything for you. In the other times, he can help you to dismiss your punishment if you want."

Chris felt dumbstruck when the Lady was saying so. In his mind, he muttered,

'I think for avenging my crap. It would be a good idea to seek help from that man's help. But, this is my issue between me, Asta, Loki, Krista, and Clara. Hmm…'

"I will help you to tell everything to my dad. So he can help you with anything."

"Yeah… Elea told me that her father wants to recruit you into his guild. He even asked for an appeal to the institute. I don't know what's on his mind. But as I told you before, Chris. Rune Magus could join any guilds without a problem." She told him so while fixing her torn linen in the right, thanks to the stab earlier after healing it.

Elea pointed at the Lady as soon as Chris crawled to her side hurriedly, asking if she was alright. Thus, Elea stated to Chris,

"Look at her. She's a healing magician, after all. Besides, she's the guild countess in my father's guild. So, why not?"
