Chapter 191: He Won’t Heal As Usual
’Are my parents witches? Is that why they abandoned me in an orphanage?’ Iris suddenly felt chills at the thought. She pushed the thought away. It doesn’t make sense if her parents were a witch.
Then, something crossed her mind. She looked at him before asking, "Xavier, how about my god eyes? All this time, I could only use that power when I got my task. Can I also use that power anytime I want? I hope I can..."
Xavier fell silent for a moment. He mulled over the right words to answer her, confused about why Lucian had forbidden her from using her abilities to hear and see sharply. Iris should be able to use those abilities at will; she shouldn’t have to wait for a specific assignment.
He glanced at her before responding, "You can try to learn how to awaken it through your mind." He paused when he noticed her frown, indicating her disbelief in what he said.
"Darling, what I mean is, try using that ability naturally; you don’t have to wait for your task or activate it through your invisible phone," he explained.
Iris slowly shook her head, not entirely in agreement with his suggestion. "I tried it. But I failed. So, it must be activated through my invisible cell phone, and I can only use it during my task."
Xavier pondered once again. "Are you certain you tried but failed?" he asked.
"Hmm, I attempted it a few times when we were in Silenthill," Iris said with a faint smile, recalling her unsuccessful attempts.
She vividly remembered the times she had tried but failed, even though the mental strain caused her distress. That’s why she felt slightly puzzled when Xavier mentioned her talent for casting magic solely using her mind.
