The teacher looked at Aizu and saw that her internal wounds were entirely healed.

As an expert healer, she had noticed those wounds at first sight and was waiting until the end of the class to offer her magic to heal Aizu.

The teacher was a very gentle woman and didn’t want to see her students injured if she could treat them.

Because Aizu’s injuries would take some time to heal, she couldn’t interrupt the class to treat them.

However, Yale’s enlightenment ripples healed those wounds in an instant.

Although it was only an effect of the enlightenment, it was enough to confirm that even if Yale had less talent than Ange regarding healing magic, he still had the potential to use Time Healing like his sister.

The teacher was looking at Yale with sparkling eyes as she had discovered a hidden gem.

She was also one of the best healers in the academy and knew about the nature of Ange’s healing.

In fact, she was also the one who cast the healing spell that provoked Ange’s enlightenment.

The only reason for an expert like her to be teaching Yale’s group was that Yale was Ange’s little brother and Ange had asked her to take good care of him.

Ange and the old woman had a very close relationship, similar to the one Yale had with Swordmad.

Furthermore, as Yale had saved Ange in the past, the old woman also felt goodwill towards him.

Because of that, she didn’t say anything to him when she thought he got distracted, even if she was unhappy about it.

When the ripples ended, Yale’s enlightenment also finished.

Then the system reacted.

“The user obtained enlightenment about healing using the power of time. The enlightenment had the following effects on the user.”

“Healing Elemental Affinity: Low grade upgraded to Healing Elemental Affinity: High grade.”

“Time Elemental Affinity: Lowest grade upgraded to Time Elemental Affinity: Mid grade.”

“The user’s comprehension generated a new Magic Skill [Time Healing].”

Yale obtained those due to his own enlightenment, the system only reported his gains and had otherwise nothing to do with it.

Yale was too shocked when he heard the system’s report; the increases in his talents were enormous.

Especially taking into account that those talents were already precious even without upgrading.

Yale wasn’t able to hide his astonishment.

The teacher looked at Yale’s face when he recovered his senses and saw his expression of shock.

However, at Yale’s age, being astonished after having such enlightenment about healing magic wasn’t something to be surprised.

If Yale didn’t have any reaction even after being enlightened, the teacher would have suspected that there was something weird about him.

Before doing anything else, Yale went to the Skill Menu to quickly check the new Magic Skill he comprehended by his enlightenment.

He knew what kind of Magic Skill was as he just comprehended it, but it was still difficult to believe.

“Time Healing Level 1: Uses the power of time to heal any injuries on the target as long as remained alive. Time/Healing element. Consumes 20 Origin Points for every second. Mastery at level 100.”

The spell’s description was exactly as he had thought it would be.

Before looking at the system, Yale already knew that it wasn’t something he could use even if he comprehended it. But at least he wanted to see how many Origin Points would require to use it.

For using the skill for only one second, the skill required the double of Yale’s current Origin Points.

Furthermore, with only one second he wouldn’t be able to heal anything serious at all. To be able to use that skill to treat someone, Yale would need to become strong enough to use it for a few seconds at least.

Fortunately, Yale Healing Elemental Affinity increased, and thus the consumption wasn’t even higher.

In such a difficult skill the Innate Talent became extremely important, Ange was able to use Time Healing at a cost much lower than Yale’s.

When Yale was about to close the Skill Menu, he saw something strange in Absolute Protection’s description.

“Absolute Protection: Creates a field up to 10 meters that last for 10 seconds, can be stopped before the time ends. Nothing can interfere with the inside of the field until it disappeared. This Legacy Skill can only be used once in a week; it didn’t use the user’s energy.”

Yale read the description a few times until he had been sure that he wasn’t hallucinating, the effects of Absolute Protection really changed.

The area had become variable, and the maximum size increased, the same did happen to its duration.

Those improvements were already a great deal to Yale, but the important part was that the restriction of use had lowered from once per month to once per week.

As the teacher saw that the astonished expression of Yale became a smiling one, she spoke to him.

“I never expected that even if your talent is still inferior to your sister, you would be able to use the same skill as her.”

That piece of information surprised everyone, but the most stunned was Yale.

That implied that Ange could use Time Healing and then probably also had some talent regarding the time element.

Then, Yale understood from where his Auto-regeneration time power had come.

Yale was sure that if Ange really could use Time Healing, then she would have used it until she exhausted herself to ensure Yale’s recovery.

However, that opened a new mystery to Yale.

If one of them had obtained talent or enlightenment about the time element, then it could be some good luck.

However, if both siblings acquired it and then had the same enlightenment about the same skill related to time, there was something weird.

Because there weren’t such coincidences in the world.

That would mostly imply that they inherited something related to Time Healing from their bloodline.

Some bloodlines concealed latent talents that could become Innate Talents or skills after obtaining enlightenment, and all talented members of that bloodline would get the same enlightenment.

Those type of bloodlines were able to form incredibly large and influential clans.

The Roanmad Clan didn’t have such a bloodline; if the clan had such talent regarding healing, there was no way the only ones with that ability were Yale and Ange.

That left only one possible option, Yale’s mother.

Yale knew absolutely nothing about her, and even Ange didn’t know much as she was still very little when their mother passed away.

Yale was almost sure that his mother’s bloodline was the reason for the enlightenment regarding Time Healing.

Even if Yale didn’t have Auto-regeneration nor Elemental Affinity in the time element, as long as he remained in contact with healing skills the enlightenment would still have occurred.

However, if Yale’s mother had such talents in Time Healing and thus a powerful bloodline, there was no way she could die by giving birth.

Yale never doubted the reasons for his mother’s death, but at that moment the truth didn’t seem as simple as before.

There was something off that didn’t fit with the facts. But Yale was unable to discover more.

“Yale, I know that you didn’t test your Innate Talents and I don’t plan to force you to do it.”

While Yale was pondering, the teacher spoke to him again.

“However, you have some talent to healing, and your enlightenment had the same effect as Ange’s. I want to know how is your Healing Elemental Affinity.”

The old teacher stopped for a moment before continue.

“I have a method to test only your Healing Elemental Affinity; you shouldn’t doubt my words. If I could test any Innate Talent by myself, the academy wouldn’t recruit students only four times in the year.”

She stopped again looking at Yale’s reaction.

“If you agree I can test it right now, but if you don’t want then don’t worry. I’m only curious about it.”

Yale thought about the teacher’s offer for a while.

He didn’t want to expose his talents, but if it was only his healing talent. Yale thought that was okay as it was already high grade and he didn’t hope to increase it again.

Furthermore, by showing a Healing Elemental Affinity which was at the high grade would please his sister.

Finally, Yale agreed, and then the teacher held his hand and chanted some spell, which no one managed to understand, but it seemed very complicated.

After a while, the teacher stopped, and a broad smile appeared on her face.

“High grade! You Healing Elemental Affinity is at the high grade!”

The teacher was unable to hide her joy.

Healing talents at the high grade weren’t as rare as the perfect ones, but it was still almost eighty years since someone with such talent appeared in Nacesai City.

Furthermore, although she couldn’t test it, she understood that Yale would probably have some affinity with the time element as he was able to obtain enlightenment about Time Healing.

Even if he hadn’t any talent regarding time, only by being able to use Time Healing during his enlightenment was enough to turn Yale’s standing into something extraordinary.

However, she wouldn’t say anything about that in public, that information would be top-secret in the academy. The other students will know only about his healing talent.

Initially, the old woman only cared about Yale because of Ange.

However, after she learned about his talent and his capability to train Time Healing, Yale’s standing in the teacher’s mind reached the position of the second most precious student, that position was only after Ange, who was first.
