Lumiel woke up earlier this morning. He was excited to train his casting speed, he needs to practice a spell of his choice and for some time he will get used to it, making him faster in casting.

His daily training in the morning was a level higher. He stretches for several minutes and he jogged for another hour. He doubled his weights and did his basic exercises like hopping, push-ups, sits ups, curls ups, jabs and kicks, side steps, and [Heavy lifting].

He also went to his forge and practiced thumping the anvil with his two hammers for several minutes. He rests and cast [Heal] and thumping again. This rigorous training helped him to form his muscles and he was quite muscular despite his age.

After thumping, he ran for warm-up then sprinted to test how long he can last. His sweat glands perspired heavily as he runs for thirty minutes. He gasped air while he jogged to cool down.

He then rested and went upstairs to study. He hurriedly takes a warm bath prepared by his mother and took the towel to wipe himself.

He changed to his uniform and then puts his pair of weights on his legs underneath. He felt so refreshed after taking a warm bath and his body feels light.

"Honey I'm going to go back to my mission!" His father said to his mom.

"Good luck dear and be safe always," Isabella said with a kiss.

Lumiel felt curious and disgusted for always watching those things. Lumiel said goodbye to his father and his father said that he will be safe. His father smiled at him then whispered, "You're getting good with your practice in the woods."

Lumiel was shocked as he realized that he was watched by his father secretly.

"I promise to train harder!" Lumiel said with determination in his eyes.

"That's my boy!" Douglas was touched by his son's hard work and he held his son with pride.

They said their goodbyes and Lumiel went to school after eating breakfast. He met his classmates and they were gossiping that today they will know their elemental affinity.

The first affinity was given by birth and his second and third affinity will only be awakened in due time. There were also job acquired skills that were only acquired by training from masters. For example, the [Marksmanship] of Rangers and the [Shield bash] of the Protector Knights.

He entered the classroom and everyone was displaying an exciting mood. The others who didn't know their affinity yet was more excited compared to the others. Lumiel was excited but he didn't know his affinity yet. Sir Herbert Graham entered the room while carrying a ball of glass.

"Good morning class and today I brought you the element identifier. It displays the color of your element. Red for Fire, Blue for Water, White for Wind, Brown for Earth, Yellow for Electric, Green for Nature, Bright light for Holy, Dark for Shadow, and Misty white for the Spirit. Now as I call on your name you stand up and touch the element identifier."

They were called one by one according to their family name and Stella was the first to be called out of the three. She stepped in the front of the ball and touched it. After her hands and the ball touched each other, the ball glow in a bright green color.

"A nature element! As expected of a Druid! Next Lumiel Cryhearth!" Stella went back to her seat and Lumiel stood up and went to the desk.

Patrick cheered Lumiel as he walked to the desk of Sir Herbert Graham.

"Put your hands to the ball," he said to him. Lumiel followed his instruction and when Lumiel put it to the ball, it glowed with white light.

"You're a Holy element!" the teacher said.

Patrick still cheered him but other students smiled with disdain, looking at him with scornful eyes.

"The weakest element!"

"Hello, Mr. support guy! Heal me with your powers!" The nobles said to him but he didn't mind it.

"Hey! who said that! stand at the back." Their teacher reprimanded. No one answered and the room was quiet. No one wants to have problems with those nobles.

"It's okay sir they're just joking," Lumiel answered.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, sir," Lumiel replied. He knows better than anyone how his powers work.

Patrick then went to Lumiel and said, "Are you okay? I'm gonna beat the crap out of them,"

"I'm fine they're just joking," Lumiel said as he patted him. Patrick returned to his seat and was not contented with his reply.

The class continued but Lumiel was worried. He never thought that he would awaken the Holy affinity class this time, he was more on support and has a little offence to the early parts.

He waited until it was Patrick's turn and Patrick Stand up to determine what was his affinity. He touched the ball and it was glowing in yellow, an Electric element.

The Electric element was the fiercest and the fastest while Fire has damage per second and has explosive damage. It was a super offensive affinity with tremendous damage. Worthy for damage dealers and assists.

"He's a genius! A prodigy!"

Some girls have taken a liking to him because he was a kind-hearted noble and now he was an Electric class. He was also a person with good looks. In other words, he was on the top of the hierarchy.

"An Electric affinity student! You have a bright future ahead of you child!" Sir Herbert said with a smile.

Lumiel greeted him and he said, "Wow imagine you are an Electric class. You can fight any enemies with the powers you have and can save me in times of trouble Mr. knight and shining armor, being a weak and fragile Healer like me, you can easily save me!" Lumiel laughed and Patrick was embarrassed.

"Hell no! Like I'm gonna save your butt! I know your father is a Druid and he thought you how to fight. You can even fight me without offensive magic and even save numerous people.

"You're indispensable when it comes to the survival of the team. You're special because you're the only Holy class in our room. Such a person is the weakest in offense but is the greatest in survival. Don't say that you're weak or I'm gonna beat the crap out of you!" Patrick said to him.

Lumiel replied to him with determined eyes, "Oh, I'm touched! But still, I'm gonna beat you with my weakest!" He blurted out nearly laughing.

Patrick let Lumiel enjoy for the meantime to forget being humiliated and the time passed without a trace.
