Chapter 669: Magic Revealed
The golden light of R’lissea’s Nexus spun around my soul, sending a shiver down my back. Her spell was tight and clean, a nearly identical copy of my enhanced variant.
The Apostles stiffened as the unfamiliar magic settled over them;
"What is this?" Edrin asked, hand on his sword.
Luke motioned for him to relax. "You were asking how my army managed to win so many battles with so few demons? Watch and learn."
R’lissea’s aura soared, gentle and warm like the spring breeze, and she began casting another spell. Glittering ribbons of green and gold wove together in seven magic circles. They spun lazily above her hands.
"What kind of magic is this?" the Imperial healer asked, staring at the dual-attributes spell.
"Quiet, Etrial," Elaine said. "Let the girl focus.
He shook his head, hands balled into fists. "I cannot, my Lady. I can’t allow these...heroes to cast an unknown spell on you or his majesty. It might be worse than–"
"I will not ask again," Elaine glared at him, letting a fraction of her aura emphasize her words. "If you can’t bring yourself to watch, you may leave, though I sense you’ll regret that. I’m no mage, but even I can recognize that S Pell for what it is. Don’t miss this chance to witness what is perhaps the greatest magical innovation in a thousand years. Moreover, it’s life magic cast by the Life Hero herself. How can a healer like you complain about this? Who knows what you’ll be able to glean from it?"
"Y-yes, my Lady," he stammered, lowering his head.
As the seventh circle took shape, a tremor shook the ground. My heart quickened, and my started to flick back and forth.
