Chapter 5: Healing Magic
Kailar was quite surprised by this response. The woman, with her arms crossed, accentuated the grandeur of her chest and exclaimed in astonishment: "Oh! You are neither surprised nor angry. This indicates that you have a sufficient understanding of my ability to fly. Do you know me? No, that's not right. You didn't even blink when you heard my name; this is the first time you've heard it, yet you are filled with knowledge about flying... You must have encountered someone like me before!" No, that's not right. You didn't even blink when you heard my name; this is the first time you've heard it, yet you are filled with knowledge about flying... You must have encountered someone like me before!"
The low level of scientific understanding has resulted in the absolute lack of educational attainment among the populace, with farmers who can recognize characters already considered educated
"Haven't I already mentioned it? I am a magician!" The other party chuckled, and the unspoken teasing in their words infuriated Kairal.
I am asking you very seriously. Kairal's tone became increasingly flat, but those who know him are aware that this is a precursor to his impending anger
"How about that? I am quite the powerful magician," said Merlin, feeling very pleased with herself.
Hearing her speak with increasing excitement, Kairal was somewhat baffled—was she really a native? It is important to note that in this century, even unicycles, horseshoes, armor, and swords are cast from ordinary iron or even copper, indicating that the level of scientific advancement is certainly not very high
"Who knows you are this kind of flight!" Kairal exclaimed
What meaning does everything he planned still hold! Everything of his will be destroyed in an instant! ... However ... ! ... No, that's not right !
Suddenly, a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Little rascal! Would you like to learn my magic?"
If it were any indigenous person, they would be furious and erupt in anger at such a seemingly dismissive attitude. However, Kairal remained silent for a moment, understanding that it was not impossible for simple things like gliders, paragliders, or hot air balloons to be mistaken for magic, so he chose to remain silent
"Impossible, how could this be? This kind of flight is too unscientific!" Pretending to be shocked, Kairal even dropped the dagger in his hand, looking utterly incredulous.
Well, I will answer you very seriously: I discovered this very secluded treehouse while passing through this area by flying magic. I became curious about the treehouse, which is why I stayed nearby for a few days waiting for you, this strange little fellow. Is that answer sufficient? The other party's language at https://www.hetushu.com was frivolous, yet it rendered Kaelar silent.
How did you get up here?" Kairal asked.
However, in reality, Kairal's heart was already like a raging storm, yet his typically calm demeanor did not reveal this. Nevertheless, his mind was rapidly turning like a tightly wound machine.
Magic! It is actually magic!
Hmph! An interesting little fellow, very well, since that is the case, let me show you the evidence! With a gentle wave of her hand, the cloaked woman Merlin revealed a green circular pattern beneath her feet. Two streams of air surged from the ground, slowly rising into the air; it would be more accurate to describe it as floating or hovering rather than flying.
Kailar was unsure whether the other party was testing him, but he decisively refused: "I refuse. I no longer wish to have blood on my hands. Please find someone else."
Kailar closed her eyes, sinking into deep thought
If such a thing truly exists that can annihilate millions of troops with a mere wave of the hand, then what significance does everything he has hold?
At this moment, Kairal could no longer distinguish whether the other was flying or floating; he could only stare blankly at Merin, who was showing off on the roof of the small cabin, his mouth agape to the point of nearly dislocating his jaw
Ah, I once wanted to pass on these skills, but I don't know if it was due to a lack of talent or my own foolishness, as several people were unable to learn. If you can master it, having a gifted disciple to exchange magical knowledge with would indeed be wonderful
Kailar did not pay attention to that grandeur, but instead calmly said: "No, I do not know, but you must show me so that I can determine if what you say is true. Come on, since you are a magician, let me see your magic."
Kailar instantly realized that the expression on the other party's face when they guessed he had seen the second magician was definitely unique to her alone
Oh! You can fly in other ways as well?" Merlin stopped calling out, stroking her chin, and began to circle around Kairal with great interest: "You little child, not only have you invented a new type of carriage, but that kind of lifting basket outside is something those bulky knights could never conceive of; it must have come from your ingenuity. Now you can fly in other ways too, how interesting! You are such an amusing little rascal!"
Yet in this very century, this woman is able to deduce almost everything from the expressions on her own face with such precision, merely through illustrations and texts. It must be said that this woman possesses an intelligence and emotional quotient that are undoubtedly high
Seeing this child, who had been remarkably calm since his appearance and resembled a little demon, now displaying a dazed and foolish expression, Merlin felt immensely pleased. This was the most enjoyable moment after teasing him so many times. However, wait a minute! If he had seen the flight, he probably wouldn't be making this expression now
Melin? ! '' Kairal uttered this name without the slightest relaxation, her eyes filled with vigilance
At this thought, Meilin's expression fell once again
Merlin keenly noticed that Kaelal used the word "again". Of course, Merlin was unaware of how many lives the plans made before Kaelal's death would cost, but she decisively chose not to delve deeper. Instead, she stroked her chin thoughtfully and said, "What if there are only protective and healing spells, without any offensive power?"
Those who are not of high intelligence should either enter the court early or take their own lives, to avoid the misery of dying without knowing who has conspired against them.
It is necessary to probe with language and confirm it ultimately
"Are you willing to teach?" Kairal exclaimed in surprise. If he had magic himself, he would definitely keep it hidden and use it at the most critical moment, such as to save his life against a *picture* book or something. But how could this woman, possessing such intelligence, so recklessly hand over such a powerful weapon as magic to others?
"Tell me, do you know people like me?" Melin asked excitedly, her magnificent figure trembling with excitement, creating a striking curve that drew attention.
In an instant, Kairal's killing intent surged.
Kailar was unwilling to concede defeat, yet could find no words to refute the argument, and could only let out a dismissive sound to express his disdain both verbally and spiritually
Kailar was unaware of Merlin's identity, and naturally did not know the source of Merlin's intelligence, leaving him secretly astonished.
Haven't you ever seen a flying magician! Then why were you so calm just now!" Merlin was about to go crazy, shouting sharply. Although she was a girl, her scream was as piercing as nails on glass, subjecting Kairal's eardrums to intense pressure
But it is still not enough
Kailar has forgotten one thing: in fact, his thoughts are still confined to this piece of land at Hongye Ridge, regardless of the level of knowledge among the populace, regardless of which century or dynasty it is, the place where the most profound intellects gather is only one— the court
