Chapter 140: Arrived at Leurbost Village
"All right, Anika, Franky, that's enough to play, let's go straight to Leurbost Village, we're close." Martin clapped his hands to get the attention of the two people who were still bickering.
The two of them immediately came closer as if nothing had happened before, but Franky walked with strange steps. He still felt pain in his buttock from the electric shock earlier. Anika viciously aimed at his butt.
"It's fine to exchange words and thoughts in small bickering, but don't turn it into a dispute. Now shake hands first." Martin gave an example with his hand gesture. It was commonplace, but they would go into their quest, and they had to get back into a reliable team.
"Mock me again, and I will reward you with an electric shock, like a moment ago." Anika stretched her hand for a handshake, and Franky simply accepted it. "In that case, I just have to put in place an appropriate deterrent."
"Hmph! Just try it. Martin, let's go and complete this mission." Grunted and immediately freed her hand, Anika walked forward.
"Aivlys, Aisyle, Mr. Nalyd, our destination is only a few kilometers east of the town ahead. We'll fly in the normal way, no need to use acceleration magic." After saying that, Martin activated his Gravy to fly into the sky. Franky and Anika followed afterward.
"Ais, we also need to follow them." Sylvia tugged at Elysia's sleeve.
"Un." After Elysia nodded, they returned to the white tiger's back. Once again, they returned to sky travel.
"Ais, can I ask? Maybe it's a little sensitive, but I still want to ask." As they were steadily flying through the air, Sylvia suddenly asked.
"Um, you can ask me, Lys."
Getting approval, Sylvia immediately moved on to the main thing. "Are you a member of the Holy Chruch, Ais? The magic you used earlier, it's Healing Magic, one of Holy Magic, right?"
"Hmm... I don't think I'm a part of the Holy Chruch in your imagination, Lys. I don't want to be ordered by an organization back and forth. However, I know two people there, they are very kind and live in peace." Elysia pondered for a moment the answer she needed to give, then confessed based on her thoughts.
"Phew... I'm glad to hear that. Just don't use your Holy Magic on me, okay? With the level of your strength, my father or I will definitely suffer." Sylvia let out a sigh of relief.
"Err, so I can cast my Holy Magic on your father, and you allow that? Mischievous girl." Elysia smiled lightly. She didn't expect that.
"Humph! He's great and strong, he rarely suffers some loss by someone. My father can accept that with open arms if he acts without thinking." Sylvia looked sideways and gave a grunt of grievances. She didn't care about her father staggered a little at hearing her small complaint.
"Ow, so it's like that... However, my magic is unique. Look at this Healing Magic." Elysia used that magic once again and put her hand on Sylvia's thigh.
"Eh?" Sylvia immediately looked down at the warm source that touched her thigh. "Eeep! Aw! It- doesn't hurt? Um?"
Screaming in surprise, she had expected the pain to come right after realizing one of the highest levels of Holy Magic touched her thigh. Still, it gave nothing but warmth and comfort. Sylvia looked at her friend with thousands of confusion in mind.
Unlike the three people flying in front who thought it was just a joke from the two young girls... Dylan was about to save his daughter from the human girl's evil hand right after Sylvia shouted.
However, quickly the crunch became a shock, that Holy Magic didn't hurt his daughter? What was going on? Even so, he only flew closer to hear the conversation between the two girls who were exchanging words in whispers to each other.
"See? You don't feel the pain from Holy Magic, do you? The devil races will feel pain when they encounter this magic?" Elysia had predicted the outcome. Her magic wasn't really Holy Magic in reality.
She and Elena had talked about this while she was thinking for a moment earlier. Elena concluded from a possibility, and it proved to be true. If Elysia wanted it, her Holy Magic would not harm any Devil.
"Un, it doesn't hurt. Just warm and cozy, soothing like feeling." Sylvia nodded in a daze. Then she took the dainty hand on her thigh.
The greenish-white light still shone on her friend's palm. Then, Sylvia put her other hand between her and her friend to use Dark Magic.
Without further ado, she brought her palm with a dark energy radiance closer to her friend's palm. Dark Magic collided with unique Healing Magic and made a spark of energy from the collision of the two hostile magic, but they did not destroy each other.
"Ow, this is weird and great at the same time. Healing Magic and pure Dark magic don't destroy each other? Aw, but my hands are tingling." The corner of Sylvia's mouth twitched a little when she shook hands with her friend. Now, the clash was real but had a very unexpected outcome.
"Um, then, let go of my hand, Lys. You are so silly to use Dark Magic to encounter Healing Magic." Elysia felt a similar surprise, but not from a tingling sensation like Sylvia.
Not only was she surprised, but Elena too. They knew these two types of magic were opposites from one another, and it could result in the destruction of both magic. Holy Magic represented life, and Dark Magic represented death. Life Magic against Death Magic, magic that was mutually hostile to one another.
'Amazing! Marvelous! Is it because you intend not to hurt anyone even if it's the Devil, Ely? Ah! Don't try it with practice, Sylvia will get hurt, that's just a statement.' Elena came to a conclusion, but she immediately exclaimed in panic so that Elysia wouldn't try it.
'En, and we have another discovery of our magic, thanks to Sylvia. Our magic isn't bound by the rules, Sister Elena. Maybe, I can use dark magic too?' Elysia certainly understood that very clearly.
'Maybe, and most likely, you can. You just need to observe Dark Magic in more detail from these Devils later, next time.' Elena nodded with the same thought.
After proving and satisfying her curiosity, Sylvia let go of her friend's hand. The two of them no longer used their respective magic, but they looked at each other in the eyes with a confused expression.
"How did that happen?"
"I'm clueless too, just like you. Let's ask your father, Lys. He should know better than us." Elysia wasn't sure to answer. She shook her head with a suggestion.
"Father... Did you saw? Earlier, how did the two magic not destroy each other? I just felt tingling in my hands." Sylvia immediately asked for enlightenment from her father that she thought knew very many things.
"Hmm... As A matter of fact, this human girl's Healing Magic didn't hurt you really amazed me. Your pure Dark Magic is working normally. So all of this happened because of the magic from this human girl." Dylan stroked his chin with a thought he got from what he saw just a moment ago.
"Hey, my friend doesn't have a name as 'this human girl'. That Ais remember? Ais." It wasn't the owner of the pseudonym who was protesting, but Sylvia was defending her friend.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever." Dylan shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't care.
"Um, so what you mean is Ais's magic is special, father? Ais also said her magic is unique. Hum, yes, so it's true. My friend is a special person, no problems arise. Case closed hehe..." Sylvia smiled happily. The problem was solved, and a new discovery was found.
She, her father, and her friend had been meticulous in keeping their conversation from a while ago unheard by the three people upfront... That three people chatted about whatever they were discussing.
They exchanged words in each party, and it didn't feel like all of them had passed through a valley, river, and small forest until a village was seen on a small hill right in front of them.
Leurbost Village was clearly written as a welcome sign at the entrance to the village. According to Elysia's party, they finally arrived at their destination after 15 minutes of flying east at a reasonably slow speed.
After arriving near the village entrance gate, all of them landed on the ground. The arrival of six adventurers with a big tiger surprised several housewives and men who happened to be around.
"Excuse me, sir. We are adventurers from Rosemoor City. Can we ask where is Mr. Aayan's residence?" Martin approached a middle-aged man who was sitting casually in front of the house. He was the closest to them.
"Oh, so you guys are adventurers from a big city. The residence of the man you are looking for is in the southernmost part of this village. If you see a medicinal plant garden and a house nearby, then that is his residence." The middle-aged man kindly showed the way to the newcomer.
"I see. Thanks for the direction, then one more thing. Where is the house of the village chief?" Martin asked politely.
"Oh, asking in such a good manner, I am delighted about it. I am the village head of Leurbost Village." The middle-aged man smiled and nodded. He remained relaxed on the rocking chair as if he was a frail and helpless man.
