45 – A gift from heaven

Yohan took off the training suit he was wearing and spread it on the floor.

“Don’t feel sorry for me and spit it all out.”

Spitting out the elixir. Siron heard John’s words and wondered what he was talking about, but looking at his wrinkled face, it didn’t seem like he was joking about asking for the price of an expensive elixir.

Yuck-

Siron immediately stuck his finger down his throat. The vomit stained his clothes, but John patted Siron’s back, saying it was okay.

“It’s a very unlikely possibility, but you could fall into a mental state due to the tangled blood flow. “Symma is a disease that mainly occurs when the mana in the body cannot be controlled.”

“…”

John said that Siron had just experienced a near-death crisis. Siron’s body trembled a little at the fact that he had unknowingly passed the risk of death.

After regurgitating all the elixir, Siriel held out a bowl of water.

“Brother, this.”

“thank you.”

Shiron smiled bitterly and accepted the bowl. Siriel’s face, which he saw while rinsing his bitter mouth, was very depressed.

I was sentenced to the sound that my cousin brother could not succeed as a martial artist.

Siriel was truly sorry for this situation.

“Fortunately, there is nothing wrong. I’m glad you’re in good shape.”

After cleaning the cluttered surroundings, Yohan approached Shiron and checked every nook and cranny as if examining his entire body.

“By the way, this is the first time in my life I’ve never seen anything like this.”

“Is it rare?”

“Usually… not uncommon.”

John continued his inspection.

“In total, one in a hundred. “That’s the ratio.”

“Do you mean the whole thing?”

“yes. If we limit the scope to children of prestigious samurai families, there is no case in which they are born incapable of handling mana. “Once in a while, it’s more than that.”

After completing the inspection, Yohan rubbed his forehead with his sleeve.

In martial arts, those who cannot handle betting die before leaving behind any children.

Yohan added that the longer the history of a family, the more likely it is that even one possibility disappears.

“… When you say it is congenital, do you mean that there are cases where it is acquired?

At that time, Lucia, who had been silent, spoke to John. There was a point in the words that the blood flow between the upper stage and the middle stage was twisted.

John nodded.

“There have been cases where people have died in a serious accident and survived.”

“…”

“But Master Shiron’s body doesn’t have any scars, and there are no aftereffects such as lameness or shaking hands, so that’s not the case.”

“Did you hear? So don’t be weird.”

Chiron approached Lucia and patted her on the shoulder. It was clear what he was thinking as he lowered his gaze from earlier and trembled.

“It’s not your fault.”

Siron spoke as if to reassure Lucia. His face, which was trying to cheer up his sister, looked drained of energy.

It was a side effect of trying to forcefully circulate mana.

“…B-but.”

Lucia kept moving her lips as if she wanted to say something. Siron thought it wouldn’t work so he whispered to Lucia.

“If I don’t calm down now, I’m going to lie down and blame you for the rest of my life?”

“…”

“So, if you don’t want to see me being embarrassed, don’t apologize.”

‘I have no intention of asking you to take responsibility in the first place.’

Siron sighed deeply. His lack of talent is like some kind of fate. Siron did not want Lucia to blame herself for a mistake that did not exist.

‘It’s not this guy’s fault. If I had to ask, it’s the fault of the person who designed the game.’

If it is the law of this world that people become unable to handle mana after being hit and fainting, then people in tough professions like knights should have been discharged long ago.

Siron left Lucia behind and stared at John.

“I’ll be out, so please take care of Lucia.”

“yes. Thank you for your effort young master.”

“Don’t worry about me. All I can think about is how to absorb the elixir well. “I have to think about the hard work of my uncle and John.”

“…sorry.”

“Thank you for your effort.”

Siron bowed his head to Johan and walked away from Lucia. There was no reason to be here other than knowing that there was nothing to be gained from drinking the elixir.

Siron walked out of the training room.

“brother! “Let’s go together!”

Siriel hurriedly followed Siron as he walked away.

*

After Siron and Siriel left, the training room was filled with silence.

‘This is in trouble.’

John scratched his head at the awkward situation.

Judging from the conversation between Siron and Lucia a little while ago, it wasn’t difficult to guess that something had happened between the siblings.

It’s the same with Shiron who came out on his own, and it’s also the same with the fact that Lucia still hasn’t been able to shake off the shadow from her face.

Yohan, who vaguely guessed the feelings of the two, quietly stroked his beard and broke the silence.

“Lady Lucia. “Please come this way.”

John decided to continue his meditation practice.

He straightened the black sand and motioned to Lucia. Didn’t Master Shiron say that he was fine and that he would take good care of his younger brother?

Even considering that consideration, John could not stop the progress.

But Lucia did not move from her spot.

“I already know how to manipulate mana.”

“You’re great.”

John nodded and said.

None other than the son of a great family. Siriel has also been dealing with the mana in her body since last year.

So, it is not surprising to hear that Lucia, who is the same age, handles Mana.

Lucia looked at John, who looked unexpectedly calm.

“Aren’t you surprised?”

“Lady Siriel also knows how to manipulate mana. “I’m still immature.”

“So, what about this?”

Lucia let intangible energy form on the tips of her fingers.

“hmm?”

“I know how to do this too.”

Lucia held out her finger as if to take a good look. A white light emanated from the fingertips.

“no way…”

John blinked. I couldn’t believe what was happening right now.

The light that formed on the girl’s hand was clearly powerful.

It’s so easy for a martial artist to unleash the true energy that can be obtained after training for a long time.

Lucia embarrassed even John, who was watching many of the equipment from the side.

“Sleep for a moment.”

John held out the cloth wrapped in the elixir to Lucia.

This was to ensure that it was not just a simple release of mana, but that it was truly powerful.

“Let’s cut it like swinging a sword.”

“yes.”

Lucia drew a halo of light toward the cloth.

The result was obvious. The cloth was broken in two as if it had been cut with sharp scissors.

“It’s really strong…”

The words came out softly.

John could not believe what was happening before his eyes.

“Who did you learn from? Are you the guardians of the Dawn Castle? Or are you the matriarch of Prien?”

“I just… I knew it instinctively.”

I knew it instinctively. Those words were never false. Because the word instinct means innate.

At those words, Yohan forgot his face and suddenly leaned forward.

“Would you like to hold out your hand?”

A child less than ten years old did not learn from anyone and radiated strength from his hands.

Even though John thought it was a deliberate plan, he ended up showing his curiosity.

Lucia held out her thin white arm to John.

“From now on, mana will flow into your body.”

“…”

Lucia nodded instead of answering.

John traced Lucia’s blood stream and let mana flow.

Indeed, the flow of mana that entered the child’s hand through the fingers was unobstructed.

‘No, it’s not like there’s no blockage. This.’

John’s eyes widened and he was surprised again. Even without being conscious of letting the mana flow, Lucia’s body began to constantly absorb mana, as if stealing it from John.

‘I see no limits.’

It was like pouring water into a bottomless pot. However, there was no sign of mana escaping from around Lucia. The ability to accept mana itself is a big thing.

The blood vessels are thick and tough.

John didn’t want to explain what was happening with such clichés.

Heaven and Earth.

The girl in front of me was born for martial arts. There was no other way to express it that way.

‘If this really isn’t a dream.’

John’s fingers trembled slightly. This was a genius that only comes along once in a hundred years… no, once in a thousand years.

This girl can definitely grow up to be Hugo Prien and even more.

John’s eyes grew teary at the thought of being able to contribute to that historic moment.

However, unlike Yohan, who felt moved, the girl in front of him was in a drooping state.

“Can I stop? “I’m not feeling well.”

“…yes.”

John calmed his excited heart and nodded.

He wanted to embrace Lucia, but John couldn’t.

The reason was obvious.

Because it was obvious why Lucia was not happy.

John let out a deep sigh towards the ceiling.

‘You care about the master.’

In Johan’s mind, the image of the boy who had just left the training room on his own came to mind.

There was no trace of regret in his steps, as if this was not his place.

‘Is this a joke from God?’

My brother had absolutely no talent for radish,

On the contrary, my younger brother casually displayed a miracle that could only be described as a miracle.

Faced with that extreme situation, Yohan had no choice but to wash his face repeatedly.

“Then four days later. “Is that okay?”

“yes…”

Lucia nodded weakly.

Siron said it wasn’t her fault, but Lucia couldn’t shake off the uneasy feeling.
