Chapter 2056 - Ceremony
Chapter 2056 – Ceremony
"You are being conferred as the Grand Master of Healing at the hands of Grand Commander." Mother said softly as she looked at me with shocked eyes.
"It is just a title mom, its no big deal," I said. "No big deal? Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a title of Grandmaster, especially in healing?" She asked.
"Grandmaster of Healing is a title that is hardest to earn in all the fields, and even Grandmaster level healers don't get this title; they have to earn it in their long lifetime, while you have earned it barely into twenty-one years," Mom said with a tear-streaked face as she touched my cheek with her hand.
I know the title is a big deal, and to be honest, I had not expected I would get it officially this early. Only Pyramid could give this title, and it does not give it easily; healers toil lifetime and not get, this including some Grandmaster level healers.
This conferment is done in warring times, and it is done by a Grand Lord, so it is a big deal, and also it is being done in secrecy. There are very people who will come to know about it, and it will be kept secret till I become strong enough to hold the weight of the title against the machinations of the Grimm Monsters.
"It looks like Marina had taught you well," Mom said, and I couldn't help but nod at that. Whatever achievement I have got in my healing arts is all because of the teacher. If not for her, I wouldn't be a healer, much less getting conferred with the title of Grandmaster of healing.
"Dinner is ready," My father announced suddenly and soon, all of us sitting at the table. "Congratulations, son, your conferment Grandmaster title is big news for the whole family; I couldn't tell you how proud I am of you," My father said.
"Thank you, father," I said.
"I also have news to share," Mom said softly, and her expressions turned serious. "I will be leaving for a mission in two weeks," She said, shocking father and me both.
"What? This early, you have not even reached the Leader class yet?" father asked back. "The conditions have changed; the Grand Commander wanted me on the field as soon as possible," She said.
While we may be residing in a safe place that makes us forget about war that is happening outside, we can not escape the reality of it. Sooner rather than later, we have to enter the field, it is especially for a people like a mother who had one most enviable ability and most suited for certain tasks, she is the only person that could do some of them.
"Don't worry about me; I will not be alone; a very powerful Grandmaster will be with me," Mother said, but that did not elevate my worries.
The rest of dinner went in silence with little conversations. I went back to my room after dinner and made a few calls and sent some invitations before I went to my core before sleeping a few hours later.
"You really seemed to have gained some clout; Grandmaster Harley said she would not let me out Training Centre before I became Master class Tyrant, and today in the morning, she said I could go outside for three hours," Elina said as she walked inside my room wearing a beautiful purple gown and pink diamond necklace that looked amazing on her.
"It is related to the secret function you are taking me; even mother is quite secretive about it when I had asked her about it in the morning," She said as she appeared beside me.
"You will know about it soon," I said as I adjusted my uniform. I would have preferred to wear a suit, but the uniform is more suitable. Elina is wearing a gown, but she also has her medals attached to her chest; it is a military event.
The grand lord had given me some freedom to invite some guest on my part, though she had provided a list, and I only could invite the people on them. Thankfully, all my good friends and people I want to invite are on them, but most of my friends are unviable, either training or on a mission to secrete locations.
"You look good, by the way," She praised. "You are not bad yourself," I said back to which she had shot me the angry eyes.
"Let's go, its time," I said, and we walked out of my room. In the living room, there were three and a half people sitting in a room talking.
Aside from my parents and sister, a teacher is also present. She had come despite her immensely busy schedule, and for that, I couldn't help but feel grateful.
"Let's go; we don't want to be late for such an important ceremony," Mom said, and we all walked into the teleportation formation.
As we stepped into the formation, the formation had lit up, and we disappeared from our place and appeared in the grand hall, where fifty-some people talking around dressed in beautiful clothes. Some of these people were present in person, while others were just in projection; some were even wearing a mask that cloaked their aura and level.
Even among the most powerful, we have to hide ourselves and our abilities; it is very hard to infiltrate such a high level, near impossible, but Grimm Monsters have performed that feat, so we have to be extremely careful, from our own people.
As we appeared in the formation, all the people looked at us, and it felt quite shuddering. These people are the best of humans, our backbone. A wall against the Grimm Monsters, and now this wall is being tested by our great enemies.
If this wall collapses, our whole race will collapse, and even grand-lords with all their power would not be able to do anything against it.
