Chapter 116: Silvermoon Keep P3

Setting down camp, Shiro made her way towards Reyna with her 'soup' in hand.

The meal that they promised was this viscous soup that had a horrid texture in her opinion. Even more so due to the fact that it was completely bland for her. She couldn't taste the flavour at all.

"Great soup huh?" Shiro chuckled and sat next to Reyna.

"Hahaha… Yeah, it's not the best but you have to work with it I guess." She chuckled.

"Say, if this isn't too much trouble for you, are you able to show me some healing magic?" Shiro asked as she drank the soup in one go and stopped herself from throwing it back up.

Making a disgusted face, she put the bowl aside and quickly threw a lollipop in her mouth.

"So was that your main goal?" Reyna asked.

"Main goal?"

"Well, you approached me and were being overly friendly. My best bet was that you wanted something from me." She replied.

"Well, I don't believe that there's anyone in this world who doesn't want something from another person. Whether that be something physical or emotional." Shiro shrugged.

"But yes, part of the reason was that I wanted to see if I could learn healing magic. Another part was because you were the only one to return my greetings." Shiro smiled.

"Well… I can agree with that hahaha. If I didn't hear them talk a few times already, I would have thought that they were mute." Reyna laughed.

"So why do you want to learn healing magic? From what I've heard, you're an impressive ice mage." She asked curiously.

"Hmm… it's to compensate for my party. Currently,we have three members. A tank, an attacker and me, a mage. We need a healer to help us. I did have a candidate but I kinda perhaps killed/let her friend die in an unfortunate accident. Therefore, I am now studying healing magic to compensate for the party." Shiro responded casually whilst biting down on her lollipop and pulled out another one before throwing it into her mouth.

She then turned to Reyna and offered her a normal lollipop.

Not rejecting the sweet, Reyna finished her meal and accepted it.

"Mn, that will definitely be awkward if you are in a party together." Reyna nodded whilst eating the lollipop.

"Alright. I'm not sure if you can learn it but I can demonstrate it no problem." Reyna smiled and stood up.

"Great, so where do we start?"

"I'll need a small injury so that I can demonstrate-"

*PUSHI!

Shiro made a knife hand and plunged it into her forearm the moment Reyna said she needed an injury to demonstrate.

"AH! Stop! I said small!" Reyna cried out in shock.

Shiro doesn't even flinch and tilted her head slightly.

"But this is small? I avoided my bones, my veins/arteries and my tendons. The only thing I damaged was muscle." She replied.

Reyna wanted to smack Shiro across the head for being stupid but inspected the wound. However, to her surprise, Shiro was right. There were only damages to the muscle and nothing else.

She needed to take a second look at Shiro to make sure that she wasn't dreaming.

"See? Just the muscle damage." Shiro smiled.

Reyna's mind was screaming out 'what the f*ck' right now. She had never seen anyone plunge their hand into their arm with such confidence and no hesitation in her life. Not only that, but Shiro didn't even flinch as if the pain wasn't even there.

"Is there anything wrong?" Shiro asked, slightly confused about Reyna's pause.

"Ah er nothing. Doesn't it hurt?" She asked timidly. Just looking at the blood gushing out of her arm made Reyna flinch slightly.

"Hurt? I mean… It should do. But my pain senses are dulled a little. Plus, it's not enough for me to actually show some physical reaction to it." Shiro replied casually as she pulled her hand out of her arm.

Flicking her arm to the side, she shook the blood off her hand.

"So can you demonstrate your healing magic?" Shiro asked once more.

Nodding her head, Reyna crouched in front of Shiro and held her hands over the wound.

Closing her eyes, a green glow encased her hands along with the wound.

"Gods of the heavenly order. Bless this priest with the power of miracles. May the spirits mend her wound."

Hearing the chant, Shiro had to suppress the urge to smack Reyna's hand away, not wanting to be healed by something that relied on the power of a so called 'god'.

Closing her eyes, she sensed the flow of mana and how it healed her wound.

She could feel the mana simulate the recovery of her body.

'Hmm, rather than healing, it's more like speeding up the 'time' around my wound and letting it recover naturally.' Shiro thought whilst observing the changes to her body.

"Done." Reyna said after fully healing the wound.

Moving her arm around, Shiro nodded before stabbing her hand into her arm once more.

"What the hell!!!" Reyna cried out in shock. She had just healed the wound and now Shiro's gone and reopened it.

Without replying to Reyna, Shiro narrowed her eyes at her wound.

'Even though there were some foreign mana in play when she healed my wound, I should be able to recreate the same effects if I were to have enough visualisation and mana.'

Snapping her fingers, a green fire lit up on her hand.

Reyna was shocked that she could barely say a word.

Shiro glanced briefly at her hand before moving it over her wound. Slowly outlining the injury, the fire was healing the wound at a visible pace, much to Reyna's disbelief.

Shiro had the idea of using her fire coupled with the mana manipulation of the healing skill so that she could both kill any bacteria or virus that may have infected the wound along with healing it. This way, she'll be able to avoid any unforeseeable problems.

After a short moment, which was only a little slower than how fast Reyna healed, Shiro's arm was back to normal.

"Well that was interesting." Shiro muttered as she had unlocked a skill tree much like her Frozen Hell Series only this time, she didn't make the skill tree but rather discovered the skill tree.

[Skill recognised. Awarding 100 free stat points. Discovered Ancient Healing Art Series.

Seeing that she was awarded 100 free stat points, Shiro put them all into INT before looking back at Reyna.

She furrowed her brows when she saw that Reyna had fell backwards in shock.

"Hello? You alright?" Shiro asked as she reached out to help Reyna up.

"Y-yeah… I'm just currently making peace with the fact that you have just learnt something that took me years to learn." Reyna replied and grabbed onto Shiro's hand.

"So that's what they meant about you being an incredible mage. Not only did you not need to chant, but your mana usage was also more efficient than mine from what I could see." She said whilst glancing at Shiro's tender forearms.

There were no hints of any damage and if one didn't see her plunge her hand into her arm, they wouldn't even know that she was injured.

"Well the key to magic is all about visualisation and mana control." Shiro replied as she conjured up the green flames once more.

This time, the flames were much more intense than the initial flame she used to heal herself. A common occurrence due to the fact that skills increase in effectiveness once the system recognises it.

Flicking her fingers around, the flames danced around her in a mesmerising fashion to which Reyna couldn't help but marvel at its beauty.

"I know this is rather odd but are you able to teach me the green flame thing?" Reyna asked as she found it quite humorous that their roles had switched quite quickly. Just a few moments ago she was showing Shiro how she used healing magic and yet, now she was asking for Shiro to show her the healing magic.

"Mn? Sure. This flame is a mix skill between a fire skill called combustion and your healing skill. While I can't directly copy your healing skill, I used my mana control to simulate the same movements and got something similar. So unless you also have the fire skill called combustion or any type of fire control skill, I don't think you can learn it." Shiro replied honestly.

"Though you can also think of this as an off brand version of your healing. It was only because I couldn't copy your spell step for step that this skill was created."

"Ah, such a shame then." Reyna sighed but didn't mind too much. Since it wasn't something she could learn, due to the lack of fire control skills, she wasn't going to dwell on it.

"MONSTER HORDE!!!"

Someone suddenly shouted out as the entire camp sprung into action.

Both Shiro and Reyna dropped what they didn't need and dashed towards the front lines.

Once they arrived, they could already see a cloud of dust caused by the collective stomps of the monsters.

Jumping on a carriage for some high ground, Shiro saw that the monster horde consisted of these raptor-like monsters that had swords for arms.

Their blood-red scales were illuminated by the moonlight, creating the illusion that a river of blood was charging towards them.

"MAGES! Thin out the horde!" The recruiter shouted out.

Shiro glanced towards the other mages and nodded her head. Unfortunately, the mage ignored her signal as he chanted on his own.

This caused Shiro to frown as the mage was being uncooperative.

'Che, not that I need your help anyways.' She thought before turning her attention back to the incoming horde.

Taking a deep breath, Shiro moved her arms in front of her.

*BOOM!!

As if the mana was suddenly injected by some sort of stimulant, they surged towards her palms.

The suction was so strong that it had even interrupted the magic the mage was casting, much to his annoyance

Ignoring his hateful glare, Shiro twisted her palms as six magic circles exploded out around the horde.

"Freeze!" Shiro shouted out whilst clutching her hand. The moment she did this, the magic circle thrummed to life as Ice Chains shot out of the circles and lashed towards the monsters. Whilst this was happening, a blizzard had appeared and was freezing everything that was inside its area of effect.

Sadly, the monsters were low levelled so they hardly gave Shiro any EXP.

Seemingly understanding the danger of her spells, the raptors cried out before splitting apart and avoided the blizzard.

Shiro controlled the spell but the movement of the blizzard was too slow.

Glancing at the other guards, she rolled her eyes.

"What are you doing standing idle for? STAB THEM!" Shiro shouted out.

Her shout snapped them out of their daze from seeing such a powerful spell and charged forward.

She furrowed her brows when she saw how amateurish they were when thrown in a group fight.

If not for Reyna's healing, there would definitely be some casualties.

"Screw this. Let this miss show you how it's done!" She shouted before snapping her fingers. Making it so that her spells automatically controlled itself. She then jumped off the carriage and towards the monster horde.

"!!!"

"What is she doing! Stop her!" The recruiter shouted in shock. A mage's weak point was naturally their close quarter's combat potential.

No matter how powerful she was, once she is surrounded by the raptors, there was no doubt that she'll die!

However, contrary to belief, close quarter's combat was not her weak point. While it wasn't as refined as her mid to long ranged combat, it was enough to help her secure her position as the apex in her previous life after all.

Crossing her arms, she made a handful of ice throwing knives before twisting her body and threw all of the knives towards the group of raptors.

*KISHAAA!!!!

All of the knives hit the centre of the head without fail, killing the raptors instantly.

Just before she landed, Shiro cocked her arm back before slamming her palms into the ground.

Ice instantly spread outwards with huge ice spikes shooting out from the ground and threw large groups of raptors through the air.

Pivoting on her left foot, she did a swiping motion with her right foot and caused a wall of ice to be erected in front of her. This blocked the slash attacks of incoming raptors with ease.

"HA!"

She stomped down heavily as the ice wall separated itself from the ground. 

*BANG!

The wall broke apart and reformed itself into hundreds upon hundreds of ice spikes that drilled into the bodies of the raptors and shredded them into flying chunks of meat.

With her surroundings cleared, Shiro took this moment to gather more mana around her.

Since her links were organised, this allowed her to enter her Pseudo Elemental Armour for slightly longer periods of time along with the fact that the pain she felt when activating this was decreased significantly. She intended to use this to thin out the crowd as much as she could.

The crystal ice armour appeared on her body as the spiked chain wrapped around her forearms.

Clutching the base of the chains, Shiro twisted her body and send the chains out around her.

*BANG BANG BANG!!!

Whenever the chains touched once of the raptors, it would instantly freeze a part of their body and crush it into dust.

After a few swings of her chains, she retracted them before releasing her Pseudo Elemental Armour state.

Glancing around, she nodded in approval since she was able to clear out a large number of the mobs in a short moment.

Watching her walk back, the Warriors only had one thought in their minds.

'F*cking hell!!! Who said close range was a mage's weak point! Come out and explain this!! I won't hurt you!!!'
