Upon witnessing this, Benjamin wore a surprised look on his face as well.
—During the first academy opening ceremony, a priest attacked the hall with the use of a self-destructive, divine technique of sorts, it was rather troublesome for them to deal with. At the time, a light elemental rune could be seen in the eyes of that priest.
As time passed, he never imagined that he would witness this kind of scene again.
And so, as he gestured for the rest to stand back, Benjamin turned to the experimenting mage and asked, "Are you alright? Are you awake? Do you feel any strange spiritual energy coursing in you?"
The mage stood frozen, took a moment to react to the question before slowly opening his mouth.
"I’m...fine."
He shook his head, and said.
Benjamin inspected the mage’s appearance closer, there didn’t seem to be anything off. The mage was conscious and self-aware, with no spiritual energy from the elemental plane emitted. Given this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
