Dravid's body tingled as he felt becoming one with world.
System's voice echoed in his half conscious mind still giving him sense of reality.
"Let her go!"
Dravid whispered slowly, which seemed to reach the ear of the young blonde boy.
"What did you say? I think my ears are not working currently,"
The blonde boy removed the knife from Shina's stomach, her once-beautiful face now marred by the bloodshed, but he still had a smile on his face.
"I SAID LET HER GO!!"
Dravid directly jumped on the boy using his instinct in anger.
[Ding! The thunder healing has been comprehended.]
[The scroll booster has increased the rate of accumulation.]
Boom!
Dravid felt something changing in his body as it shone with bright purple colour with a hint of green particles in it.
His legs trembled in the mid air as he jumped and he received an attack from the boy.
"Careful! It's Earth Slaughter spell!"
Even with blood flowing out of her lips, Shina warned him with all her power.
Dravid's perception changed as his wounds healed at faster rate.
He murmured the spell and gestured his index finger towards the coming stone missiles in the group.
Shuck!
A purple energy manifested itself in the nature as cloud gathered in an instant making everyone's hair raise and giving them goosebumps.
Sizzle!
Seven thunderbolt lightened the small alley with crackling sound.
"What?"
The blonde boy's eyes widened as he looked this thunder directly colliding with his rock missiles in domineering manner.
Crackle!
The thunderbolts fell on the missiles with the speed of lightening turning into nothing but dust.
"How is that possible?"
Shina's innocent eyes couldn't even believe what was happening as she never met any prodigal like him in whole academy or guild.
Even as a druid contestant in god ceremony, she never saw this electrifying thunder in basic spell which gave her fright.
"What was that?!"
The people around the blonde boy ran in frenzy as scared of thunder bolt.
Dravid's eyes fell on the blonde boy with hatred and anger.
"We shall meet again!"
Even though the blonde boy's heart was trembling, he still calmed down and chanted something.
"Let's see if you can escape intact?"
Dravid copied the smile of young boy as the blood flowed between his teeth making him look like a demon thunder god.
"You can bitch about it all you want. But, next time you would not be so lucky,"
A portal opened under the feet of blonde boy.
Crackle!
The thunder bolt fell with lightening speed directly racing with teleportation speed.
"See ya later."
The blonde boy dived into portal with amazing speed as he put a geo shield on his stomach.
Boom!
But the thunderbolt's speed was too fast as some of them fell on his shield and one impaled his stomach.
"AHHHHHH!I will cut you into pieces next time we will meet!"
The portal disappeared with a swoosh sound but a thunder had already injured that boy severely.
[Ding! The thunder healing spell has been used more than once.]
[Some hidden injuries has been emerged.]
System's voice warned him to not use anything too much.
Shina still stood there with pain in her stomach because she didn't have mana to heal herself.
Dravid felt sheer exhaustion in his head after using too much mana too.
"Are you alright?"
Shina's quivering but sweet voice asked condition of Dravid.
"Yes, I am alright. It's just mana drain but nothing much."
Dravid smiled bitterly as he spurted out some blood again.
"What about you? What's going on here? Everyone is trying to find trouble with you."
Although Dravid was okay with fights, he wanted to know the right story.
"We can talk about it after we recover our mana and heal ourselves,"
Shina said softly as stood up there for some time recovering her mana.
Dravid knew too much talking at this time would only delay the mana recovery so he opened the system.
"System!Show me the data!"

The system panel was displayed in front of him but with a big surprise.
Although he had some hidden injuries, due to the thunder healing scroll, it was getting healed.
"System!Can i heal myself using the thunder scroll?"
[Yes.The thunder healing scroll is a legendary spell which could only be used by an archmage.]
[Due to system, host can use it to heal his own body and his companions.]
"Holy mother of Shaggy Rogers! This thing is just amazing!"
Dravid was astonished to see the benefit of the legendary scroll.
[Host can also use it to attack and heal at the same time giving him an edge over everyone.]
Dravid whispered something and chanted a spell.
In the incredulous eyes of Shina, his body once again glowed with green colour.
His body started healing rapidly at the visible rate.
In two second, his whole body was fit and perfect again.
If someone could observe then he could see two of his hairs have been turned green and purple in colour.
"Let me heal you too,"
He spread out his hand and the familiar green energy surged in his body.
Shina felt her body giving away as she basked in the natural light.
In just twenty seconds, her whole body was in good condition again.
Even her decaying vitality was healed a bit making her heart in turmoil.
"Now, i know you have been hiding your true self and background. But now i hope you wouldn't."
He understood this girl was too timid and innocent to drag anyone in her matter so she purposefully acted differently.
"You can't do anything to them!"
"Doesn't matter, but now i can do anything to you even if i do not know you are hiding your level."
Shina shook her head as she saw determination of Dravid who was uncompromising on this matter.
She slowly stretched out her hand and a blaze scar which was in dragon shape was revealed.
Dravid was taken aback and observed the scar.
"This is the result of going against big families in the city. Do you still want to go against them?"
She scanned the facial expression of Dravid who seemed to has lost in the thought.
" Why did they do that to you?"
Dravid had questioning look on his face.
Sigh!
Shina sighed softly and hided the scar.
"I am Shina Selester. I come from a half druid family in distant village which used to serve the purpose of nature,"
"We were a happy family, i used to play outside all day long without caring about anything in the forest,"
"But one day, my mother got pregnant and everyone in the family celebrated. Later, in that evening, the village chief came with a ominous news in the village. A deity has issued an order to sacrifice a girl with mage potential,"
"In exchange of that, the deity would provide protection and wealth to the whole village.The village chief greed was revealed in front of my family, he measured the potential of every girl below the age of seventeen,"
"Three girls including me were found to have the mage potential. Later, after keen observation, i had purest bloodline of a druid in the whole village. The village chief used the crowd policy to isolate my family from the village because my father refused sending myself to wolf's den,"
Shina thought about her family as she spoke having a happy expression on her face.
"My father announced that we would move into another far away place. But, the son of village chief manipulated me into playing game in the forest on that day and i was forcefully taken away."
Shina's innocent and happy face turned into hatred filled expression as she remembered that smile on the son of village chief.
" Due to his mana connection, my father sensed that something was wrong and discovered me unconscious at the residence of the village chief.In anger, he directly smashed the head of all the guards there and rescued me,"
"We were on our way after my father took my mother and informed his brother that we were leaving the village."
"But my uncle in greed of getting some validation and money from the village chief informed the whole village. The village chief directly announced my family as village traitor and chased us."
Her white teeth gnashed in fury.
"On our way, we were interrupted by the village people but my father was an excellent attacker while my mother provided him healing. At last, my father defeated all the mages."
Then a scared and helpless expression appeared on her face.
"A man in black attire descended from the sky and used a spell which directly annihilated the both legs of my father. My mother's healing was corroded by his dark magic, and my brother in her stomach was corrupted with the power."
Now even Dravid trembled in his heart imagining the power of that terrifying mage.
"But my father didn't give up and picked up the ordinary sword from the ground and fought with mage's skeletons. He ordered us to go for the safety while he faced the that evil mage who called himself a deity."
"My mother and I fled in hurry as she used her strongest technique and were teleported to the city. On the way, my mother saw my father fighting without his head as he delayed for the time."
"After we entered the safe gate of the city, my father finally let go of his sword and fell on the ground. The mage was still angry but he couldn't do anything to us in the city."
Tears came out of her eyes as she remembered the fight of her father and the evil mage.
Dravid didn't say anything but let her out the emotions she has been holding for so long.
After some time, she wiped her tears and continued her backstory.
"The teleportation caused my mother sever injuries. After she gave birth to my brother, her health deteriorated day by day. I participated in the guild quests to buy medicine for her and my mother but with tiny money, i couldn't save her as she took her last breath murmuring my father's name."
There was a silence for some time as the cold wind blew caressing the face of Shina as if nature comforted it's lovely daughter.
"I earned lot of money to buy medicines for my brother and enrolled myself in academy. Due to my talent, i became thorn in the eyes of geniuses of big families who always bullied me. That blonde boy is friend of Caesar who proposed me due to my talent but i rejected him since i felt he had bad intentions."
" He never forgot about it, and felt humiliated.One day his uncle, who was also a teacher at the academy, used his fire elemental power to punish me for being late for a short time. "
The big scar which still had some fire particles left was so painful for her in the night that she wished to die but due to her brother, she couldn't.
"I reported this to headmaster but she shrugged it off and the Jonathan family conspired to kill me many times so i always cover my face."
"I can die but what will happen to my little brother? Thinking of this, i have to live as this fire slowly burns my vitality."
She had a determined look on her face as she remembered all the things including today's accident.
"Thank you very much! But now you should go!They can find me anytime so hurry up!"
Dravid stared at her beautiful face with white hair flowing down like a gentle waterfall as a smile which was filled with gratitude and a bit of silver tears in her eyes, he couldn't say anything.
He took a step ahead.
Hug!
"You have suffered enough!"
