Chapter 1293: Saintly Aura



"I knew you would say no, I suppose it can't be helped, at the very least- Huh?!"

Faylen couldn't believe the response from the Matriarch.

She had actually said "yes"!

"You're approving of it, matriarch?!" she wondered, the beautiful elven woman's green eyes widening.

"Yes, I approve of it, Faylen," the matriarch smiled gently at the Saintess. "You are a Saintess, one of the strongest that has ever existed since the original Saintess. I trust your judgment and your insight, and I know that these children you've brought are pure-hearted. They would never try to use the legacy of the Original Saintess for ulterior motives."

"T-Thank you so much..." Faylen smiled, bowing down to her.

Zephy had never seen her mother bowing to anybody, or ever acting in such a grateful way before either. He quickly realized just how important this Matriarch woman truly was.

"For now, however, I believe you won't enter the tower trial immediately, right?" wondered the Matriarch.

"Ah, yes, not yet" nodded Faylen. "We first require a month or two more of training. Would it be acceptable if I borrowed some of the facilities of the city, or the help of the people?"

"No problem at all, there wasn't any need to even ask for it," she smiled. "Please feel welcome in any facility... Hmm, I would recommend your son to practice fighting and Aura Control. For the two girls- Ah, the little demon girl should practice spirit magic, archery, and mana absorption. Demons have this hidden talent that most of them don't know about, but it can be unlocked rather early with enough training. Also, for the little Saintess... Can you come closer, dear? I want to analyze your Saintly Aura."

The children were slightly overwhelmed by her words, she talked so well, as if she had known them her entire life! Yet she had only seen them right now, and briefly! Even then, her knowledge knew no bounds. She was able to easily tell the perfect training for Zephy and Mist and even talked about an ability Mist had no idea about at all!

"Aura Control..." Zephy said. "True, I can manifest most of my powers through Aura, but it gets buzzy sometimes, I need to control it better! Especially when I materialize it into armor or imbue it into a weapon."

"Interesting, I suppose your parents have taught you well if you can do Aura Materialization so early in your life!" the matriarch smiled. "You have great talents!"

"M-Mana Absorption?" Mist wondered. "I-I cand o this? Wait, all demons can do it?"

"Not all demons, dear, but you seem capable," said the Matriarch. "I have never seen a demon of your tribe before though, you are quite adorable. Are those jaws capable of doing something special? Demons usually have special abilities related to their appearance and tribes."

"I... don't really know..." Mist clearly lied.

"Well said," the matriarch nodded.

Her hands dragged out a secondary aura, one shining with such white and gold brilliance it released a flash of bright light.

"Uuwaaah!"

Lara gasped as she felt her power surging from within her, it was immense!

FLAAASH!

And then, it slowly recessed, but it stayed within her Aura now.

"And I am done," said the matriarch. "Like a blanket, I've dragged it out now, and you can either keep it like that, or drag it inside, but I wouldn't recommend that. It'll be a bit hard at first, but you must learn to master this Saintly Aura. And use it all times."

"I-I see..." Lara nodded, looking at her hands.

There were two different, colorful auras flowing through her body, gathering within her

hands, this very sight surprised her greatly.

"I-I'm so strong, much stronger than I imagined!" she giggled. "Just you wait, Luck! I'm going to become so strong you won't ever recognize me!"

"Who's Luck?" the matriarch wondered.

"The Hero of Wild Beasts," Faylen smiled.

"I see! It's nice that they are close friends, hoho."

After this, Faylen and the children called it a day, and went to rest inside an Inn.

While admiring the moonlight atop the skies, Faylen sighed.

"Allan, Sylphy... I miss you."
