Chapter 28: Purifying the Demon Wolf

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After settling down, Michael finally had the time to carefully check the demon wolf’s condition. He carefully observed the demon wolf lying on the ground and found no external injuries.

This was strange. Michael used his magic power to examine the wolf’s body more carefully but still couldn’t find any wounds. However, from its state, it was obvious it had been cruelly tortured not long ago. Even the dark magic in its body was very thin, and the remaining magic power was just enough to maintain its life.

“Nina, you’re better at this. Come and see what’s going on.” Michael retreated to the side and gestured for Nina to go to her previous position to check on the wolf. At the same time, he released his own magic power, and an extremely oppressive magic power spread out. Under normal circumstances, the magic power of a Tier 4 mage was not enough to threaten an intermediate-level magic beast like the demon wolf. However, this one was severely injured, and Michael’s magic power could barely suppress it.

In order to prevent any mishaps, Michael took out his staff and stood at the side, preventing the demon wolf from suddenly attacking and hurting Nina, who had gone to investigate.

Nina squatted down and carefully approached the wolf. She stretched out her hand and circulated her magic power to check on its condition. Her spirit pet sparrow flew around her master, chirping and singing a song, condensing a gray magic circle around Nina.

Gray magic power slowly entered the demon wolf’s body from Nina’s hand and began to swim through its body to check its condition. He then sent the results to Nina.

Fear unconsciously flashed across the wolf’s eyes when it saw Nina letting the magic power enter its body. Its body curled up on the ground and began to tremble. It was as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.

Nina’s detection magic did not affect the magic beasts at all. It was the first time she had seen a magic beast so afraid as if she was doing something extremely terrifying. With such doubts, she used her other hand to gently rub the wolf’s chin to comfort him. The wolf stopped trembling after realizing that Nina had no ill intentions, but the fear in its eyes still did not disappear. The result of the magic detection also shocked Nina.

“This! That’s too cruel!” Nina sensed the situation inside the wolf’s body and exclaimed.

“What’s wrong?” Michael was very puzzled. “There are no wounds on his body.” Michael believed some weak mage must’ve tried to purify the wolf but failed.

The purification process of a magical beast was actually very simple. First, the black magic on the beast’s body was expelled, and then the wounds caused by the black magic would be healed with a healing spell.

However, the actual operation was not that simple. Magical beasts could be said to live on black magic, and expelling black magic was equivalent to killing it. If he couldn’t pacify the magical beasts with this step, he might be attacked to death by the irritable ones. The healing process after removing the black magic from the beast’s body was also crucial. Without the support of black magic, the magical beasts would fall into a state of weakness or even death. They would need to use powerful healing magic in time to heal the beasts successfully.

If that didn’t happen, the magical beasts would either die or be invaded by black magic again. All his previous efforts were in vain. The best way was to use healing magic at the end of the black magic, but the timing of these two was difficult to grasp, so many mages ended up disappointed.

However, this did not stop groups of mage trainers and mage apprentices from coming to the Dark Forest one after another in an attempt to purify the magic beasts. After all, as long as he successfully purified a magic beast, not only would his strength increase greatly, but he would also quickly become famous on the continent of Tyre.

It was also because of this that magic beasts that failed to be purified were often found on the continent of Tyre. However, those beasts rarely left their habitat .

“Is it a magical beast that some mage failed to purify?” Michael asked. Perhaps it was the work of a mage with strong purification abilities but not enough healing abilities. After all, there weren’t many mages who specialized in healing abilities. Most mages either had no talent in healing or weren’t interested in healing abilities.

Mages on the continent of Tyre valued attack power more, and there was a conflict between healing magic and attack magic. Mages with strong healing abilities were weak in attack power, so they were considered support roles in the team. As a result, very few mages specialized in Healing Magic on the Tyre Continent. Hence, they basically chose to make a Healing Mage from their own team.

It also formed a grand occasion where every time a group was formed on the continent of Tyre, mages would offer all kinds of high conditions to recruit a Healer. Basically, a Healer could satisfy all the needs of a team of mages.

However, there would also be a problem. When the Healing Mage in the team was not around, the remaining mages could not do healing-related things, such as purifying magic beasts. However, sometimes, when a mage finally encountered a magical beast that he liked, he could not help but forcefully purify it without the presence of a healer. The current situation would have occurred. Most of the dark magic on the magic beasts would have been expelled, but because there was not enough healing magic to keep up, there was no powerful healing medicine. It would cause the demonic beast to fail in its purification and die on the spot or try its best to escape.

Nina shook her head. “It’s not like that.” For the first time, Nina doubted the results of her magic power detection. Although there were no obvious wounds on the demon wolf’s body, she could feel traces of something passing through it. These tiny traces looked very small and could even be easily ignored, but they covered all of its organs and even penetrated its blood vessels.

Nina probed again, and her face turned pale as she said, ” Something as thick as a steel needle penetrated its body and traveled through all its organs and blood vessels, absorbing most of its dark magic.”

“This wound is very small, so you couldn’t detect it just now,” Nina explained. “Furthermore, most of these wounds are inside his body. They did not cause any damage to his appearance.”

“I don’t know how it was caused, but it can be said that its internal organs and blood vessels are covered with dense pinholes. However, these needle holes were skinny. When they were glued together, they looked no different from before. In short, its current situation was very dangerous,” Nina said as she sent a light gray healing magic power to the demon wolf.

With the transfer of magic power, the wounds in the demon wolf’s body healed a little. Its gaze also became peaceful, gratefully sticking out its tongue to lick Nina’s hand.
