The new witch

Her eyes were wide open. Kiyoshi could see his reflection in her eyes. She saw her reflection in his eyes. At the last moment, they both turned their faces backwards.

They both turn away from each other. Both turn red.

"Hmm Okay, I'm heading to sleep now," said Sakura changing the topic.

Mmm ya I am also sleepy said Kiyoshi.

Next morning in the garden (in front of the Lord)

"Kiyoshi and Sakura am I right?" asked the Lord.

Yes, my Lord replaced Kiyoshi and Sakura.

Do you know why you are here? As history says, the goddess of the forest granted us the power of beast mode. Not only elves there are some there races and families who have this kind of power. This is a secret power so it is not common knowledge. We royals can use this power after we are 100 years old. There is an elf's flame that we believe was passed down by a goddess. The flame is a divine gift from the goddess. The flame has a certain power. It heals any wound and never dies. The flame burns for many years. When royal blood reaches 100 years, our family do a ritual the person who reaches 100 will get in the fire pit. The fire will not burn them. After some time, a plant grows in that flame and bears fruit. By eating that fruit we get the power of a beast that is more related to you. But its fruit is very bitter and does not have the same effect as the actual fruit. We came to the conclusion that the reason is that the goddess' blessing is decreasing. It would be possible for Galfi to turn it into how it should be by her blessing.

Kiyoshi asked: "Why are you telling us this secret thing?"

The Lord said, "The witch is old, and she might die anytime, so the time has come for us to change the witch." Kiyoshi, you have the blessing of the forest goddess. You may not have the power like us but you can make the fruit who it should be."

Kiyoshi replied: "My Lord, but I don't know how to do it."

Lord: "That's so simple, ask the goddess."

Sakura: "You have the blessing of the forest goddess too."

Kiyoshi replied to Sakura: "I know this now."

Lord: "I can see the goddess' blessing. This should be a secret between us. Would you accept my quest?"

Kiyoshi: "Yes my Lord, it is my pleasure"

After some time

It's time for training, said Nanime with a bright smile.

Nanime and Sakura duel each other. Nanime was going easy on her but Sakura couldn't hit Nanime.

Nanime was very strong.

Meanwhile, Kiyoshi duelled Nanime's assistant.

Kiyoshi struggled to stand against her.

Assistant: "You are not bad for a healer."

Kiyoshi thought: "Why am I so weak? Even if I had MP I couldn't perform the skill. It's like sometimes there is some problem with my offensive skill and it is so painful sometimes."

After some time both Sakura and Kiyoshi knock off.

Nanime said: "Sakura, you left so many openings. If you fight an intelligent monster it will end you. Don't relay one Kiyoshi, there are limits to healing magic. it will not replace your lost blood and flesh. It only speeds up the normal process and using it regularly will risk your health. Your cells will lose their healing ability. So be careful. Sakura don't let him heal you fully. You have to allow your body to recover on its own. Just let him heal half the way. If not, you lose your healing ability.
