Earth’s Greatest Magus

Chapter 582: Her Condition



Chapter 582: Her Condition

With Morgana and Artio both wounded from the battle, Emery had to find a safe place that could help both of them. There was no place better than the Gaia shrine in the Forbidden Forest.

With what was left of his spirit force, Emery opened a spatial gate, just big enough to bring Artio, Klea and the fey sisters to the place. Just behind him, Magus Xion, Emery’s master, also followed.

Before they left, Emery gave the legendary sword, Excalibur, back to Arthur. After all, the sword belongs to the young king; he definitely needed the sword to safeguard his kingdom in such a chaotic time.

As soon as Emery handed over the sword, his stats all returned to normal.

One by one, everyone entered the portal, with Emery and his master being the last one to enter.

As Xion passed inside the dark portal, he complimented Emery’s space magic skills.

“There are not many acolytes who could master space magic to this degree like you Emery… This is very impressive.”

Before Emery could answer, however, a strong force tried to push them away from the shrine, centered from the massive trees. All around them, the glowing plants and colorful leaves emanated a hostile aura, as if the forest itself was trying to repel them away.

Strong winds shook the trees and the branches, everyone who just walked into the shrine instantly frowned with worry. They had never seen such a reaction before.

As they were about to ask, the clear blue water near the shrine stirred, the High Priestess instantly formed near the base of the Gaia tree. She spoke directly into Emery’s mind.

“I cannot tell where he came from, but he is your master, right? Emery, Gaia has never liked any magus to enter her shrine. I need to know and so does Gaia. Can you trust him?”

“Yes, High Priestess. I can trust him with my life.” Emery answered with conviction.

Right as he gave his answer, the winds immediately ceased and the plants stopped thrashing around wildly. All the moving branches calmed down.

Artio walked with a limp and dipped its massive body into one side of the clear pond around the tree. Right after it entered, massive green roots snaked out of the tree and covered its body. Each root emanated a glowing green energy and the wounds on the bear started to close up with every passing moment.

The High Priestess watched Artio for a few moments before she spoke again.

“Artio will be fine, however as for Morgana… unfortunately even Gaia is not sure how to save her.”

As they heard the words of the priestess, the fey sisters each let out choked sobs. With streaks of tears sliding down their cheek, they pleaded for any help Gaia could give them. However, the priestess only shook her head sadly.

Master Xion stepped forward and spoke.

“I extend my respects to Mother Earth. My name is Xion, I come from the Magus world. With your aid, I may be able to help the girl.”

The fey people and the High Priestess regarded Morgana as someone very special to them. As Magus Xion extended their offer, their wariness immediately vanished, they stared at him, waiting for an explanation with a glint of hope in their eyes.

Klea, who stood closely next to Emery, watched Emery’s deep concern for the red-haired girl with mixed feelings. However, she decided to hold her tongue and observe the situation for now.

With the siblings and the priestess’ agreement, Magus Xion carried Morgana with both arms and gently lowered her into one of the pools.

Just like what happened with Artio, the pond started to glow, roots filled with life energy started to crawl all over her body. But, right as the roots approached her chest, it started to thrash around, as if something was repelling them.

Magus Xion quickly used his power to grab the crystal stone embedded in her chest and forcefully took it out. 

With the crystal gone, a spray of blood from the massive wound entered the pristine pool, letting a flood of crimson taint the clear waters.

Moments after, Morgana opened her empty eyes and she screamed in agony.

The screams were so loud and painful, the fey sisters quickly reacted trying to stop whatever the magus was doing. But Emery stopped them.

Magus Xion did not react, he only watched as Morgana’s body trembled wildly and blood quickly filled out the glowing pond.

After a few seconds, Magus Xion took out a pill and placed it inside Morgana’s mouth, before placing his hand on her forehead.

Everyone watched in tense anticipation for more than an hour, before finally the thrashing roots stopped moving as much and were finally able to enter the wound on her chest. With the life energy now able to enter her, her wounds started to disappear bit by bit.

“Master, how is she?” Emery asked with concern.

Magus Xion watched the girl’s wounds for a moment before explaining, “I have taken out the primary source of the problem, as of now, she is out of danger to her life. I gave her a stamina pill to help energize her body, but we have other problems. I just checked her mind, unfortunately, her wound was not just because of the stone.”

“What is it, master? Please, tell me”

“I am not a healer myself, I cannot point out the exact source of the problem. But the wound festered because of something in her mind.”

Magus Xion asked the priestess and the siblings for more information about what happened and came up with a hypothesis.

“So, this girl forced herself to break away from the alpha will? This actually quite a common case within the half blood community, but for her not just able to resist but to actually hurt her alpha… it is quite rare.”

Hearing the words Emery and the fey sisters become more anxious. He asked the magus with clear hope in his voice.

“Master, how bad is it? Will she be able to recover?”

Magus Xion took a deep breath and explained. “Most cases of severe bloodline resistance would end with a degradation of the genes. Most commonly being weakened for years, some could become paralyzed, or in very few cases, death.”

Again, Magus Xion checks on the red haired girl in the pool. ” Unfortunately your friend’s condition is critical, as she was also hurt very badly when it happened.” Magus Xion took a deep breath before saying “I am sorry to say that, although she’s still alive, she might never wake up again.”

The answer made Emery turn to pale, while the fey sisters once again broke into tears.
