Supreme Magus novel Chapter 918

Chapter 918: Master and Students (Part 2)

"I talked to a specialist about your condition and she thinks she might be able to help. Do you mind if I let her in?"

Rena was tempted to send Faluel away, hoping that the bad news would disappear along with the Healer. Yet her maternal instinct was stronger than her fears and superstitions, so she turned to Senton who agreed in her place.

"Who are all these people?" Rena didn’t expect a second team of Healers to barge into the house. Especially not one wearing her own weight in fur and another looking like someone who was there because he had lost a bet.

"Good gods if it’s chilly. Do you mind turning up the heat?" Faluel asked.

Nalrond was too shocked and embarrassed to say a word. To him, it was Lith’s house to be identical to Protector’s and he wasn’t used to being around so many humans. He could have teared them up like paper mache in his beast form, yet the Rezar was quaking in his boots.

"Sure thing." Elina operated the panel that controlled the house temperature, making the room as warm as during a sunny spring day.

"That’s really an ingenious system." The Hydra said while studying the central heating magical devices spread throughout the house. "Too bad it wouldn’t work for my place. Maybe I should make myself a winter cottage."

Once Faluel was done undressing, all eyes were on her. To not scare her hosts, she had changed her hair to silvery blond with streaks of white, pretending to be just a normal human expert in light magic.

"Aren’t you a little too young to be a specialist in anything, miss...?" Elina didn’t mean to be rude, but aside from Lith and Quylla, the Hydra appeared to be the youngest person in the room.

’Darn, I knew I was forgetting something. Damn cold that slows my brain.’ Faluel cursed. _{freёweɓnovel.com}

"Faluel. Just call me Faluel. As for your question, I’m a well-renowned genius that some consider on par with the unreliable Manohar." Faluel wasn’t actually that brilliant nor did she have any idea who would win if she ever fought against the Mad Professor.

All that mattered to her was to put her patient at ease and gain her trust.

"Really?" Everyone asked, Quylla included, making Faluel words lose a good chunk of their luster.

"Who’s Manohar?" Nalrond was only getting more confused by the second. His ignorance put another dent in Rena’s opinion about the odd squad of Healers.

"Yes." Faluel ignored the disbelief in the room, brimming with the confidence of an Empress talking to her loyal subjects. "I’m the mage who will take care of Lith after he is done with the army. I’m a specialist in Healing and Forgemastering."

"Really?" Everyone asked, again.

"Yes." Lith glared at Quylla to make her stop acting surprised at everything. "Master Faluel belongs to an ancient magical bloodline and offered to share her wisdom with me. She’s an even better Healer than I am."

Lith hated to call the Hydra his master, but he knew that, if he used the term Professor, Quylla’s reaction would make everyone doubt his words.

Lith was many things, but being humble wasn’t among them. Hearing the deference in his tone toward Faluel and calling her as he had only done for Nana sealed the deal for his family.

"Can you save my baby, Lady Faluel?" Rena asked.

’I do realize that Senton was allowed to stay only because he shares the same blood of the unborn child. Then why does it still hurt feeling cut out from the life of the people I love?’ She thought, holding back her tears.
