Volume 4 Chapter 72 - A serious question (1/2)

Two hours later, Xu Yi was covered in sweat as he stumbled out of the room.

Seeing Xu Yi’s weak appearance, Still who had been waiting outside for a while quickly came forward to support him as she asked in surprise, “What did the two elders do to you? They actually turned you into this.”

Xu Yi shook his head with difficulty, he didn’t even have the strength to speak.

After elder Illusia and elder Lisanya had him take off his clothes, they had used magic to search every part of his body. They wouldn’t even let off his most secret place.

According to what elder Illusia said, since humans and elves were different races, although there were semblances, there were slight differences with their bodies.

These differences weren’t that obvious and weren’t important, but for the unique magic meditation method that they gave Xu Yi, there was a large influence. They had to make sure that they knew about every single difference there was.

Of course, it was easier if it was a full body search. But after conducting this, the two elders had sent their magic into Xu Yi and checked every magic conduction line in his body. Which meant they were inspecting the conduction line of magic that occurred in the bodies of every magician.

This inspection used magic and to coordinate with the two elders, Xu Yi had to keep sending magic through every line in his body again and again for the elders.

If it was just guiding magic, it wasn’t that difficult for a magician. But the problem was that to find out Xu Yi’s body could adapt to the special meditation method, the two elders had Xu Yi transfer magic to every cell in his body.

This method burned energy even more than extreme exercise. Although Xu Yi’s physique was considered good among magicians, he could only keep this up at most for an hour.

In order to make the best use of time and get more comprehensive data, the two elders had Xu Yi use all the energy and magic that he had. When he finally came out, he was so tired that he couldn’t say a thing.

Seeing Xu Yi’s appearance, Great Magician Camilal looked at the tightly closed room. After thinking about it, he said with a nod, “Wanting to teach the unique methods of the elves to a human will definitely be very hard, bearing a little pain for this isn’t anything. Still, bring Xu Yi to rest. If nothing unexpected happens, there’s something for him to do tonight.”

“There’s more tonight?” Still looked at the closed door in surprise before looking at the weak Xu Yi in worry. She knit her brows, “I’m afraid that Xu Yi can’t take it.”

Great Magician Camilla gave a cold snort, “How could it be easy to become a Great Magician? This kid is already stronger than I was at his age and there are all these people helping him, if he can’t even take a bit of pain, he might as well give up studying magic.”

Seeing the look on Great Magician Camilla’s face, Still stuck out her tongue and said nothing. She and Liz supported Xu Yi as they walked away.

When Xu Yi woke up from his rest, he found that it was already getting dark outside. The sun was setting into the sea in the distance, letting out beams of golden light that caused the room to look golden.

After being in a daze, Xu Yi remembered that after being supported into the bath by Still and Liz, he had fallen asleep while taking the bath. He didn’t have any memories at all about how he got into bed.

Thinking of the bath, Xu Yi was suddenly surprised to find that there was a strange scent and the sticky feeling from his body was very uncomfortable.

He opened the blanket with knit brows and found that he was completely naked in bed. It seemed like Still and Liz hadn’t put anything on him after carrying him out of the bath and just let him sleep.

But seeing the black liquid that was covering him, it was like his body was stained in black oil. Not only was it ugly, it also smelled bad.

“This should be the impurities that elder Illusia mentioned.”

After thinking of the words elder Illusia had said to him afterwards, Xu Yi had an idea. He used his magic which quickly went around his body.

Xu Yi found that his magic was flowing much faster compared to before and moved much more smoothly. It wasn’t like before where there was a blocked feeling, the magic inside him was much easier to control.

This must be because of the “purification” that elder Illusia and elder Lisanya had performed for his body. It’s said that it could make humans closer to elves, making it easier for them to use the elves’ special meditation method.

Stretching out a finger to wipe on his body, Xu Yi couldn’t help knitting his brows. After thinking about it, he wrapped the blanket around himself as he went to the bathroom.

He didn’t meet anyone on the way. Xu Yi guessed that everyone else was having dinner at this time, so they must be eating dinner since they thought he was still sleeping.

Although he was also very hungry, the feeling around his body was uncomfortable, so he didn’t have time for his stomach.

He went into the large bathroom in his manor and Xu Yi pulled off the blanket around himself. He used the water to wash his body off twice before jumping into the spacious bathtub.
