Chapter 6

Savior Ye Wei'an

Next, the surviving guards, under Kane's command, began to clean up the battlefield.

They dragged the scattered robber corpses to an open space by the roadside, roughly stripped off their still-intact leather armor, and confiscated their weapons.

Four or five packhorses abandoned by bandits were wandering in the distance. Guards led them back and tied them to the horses in the caravan.

The bodies of fallen comrades were laid out as neatly as possible, while the wounded were placed on carriages for centralized care.

However, given the level of civilization in this world, without priests or druids, most seriously wounded soldiers would only face death.

Some knelt on the ground, futilely pressing on their comrade's wounds, which had stopped bleeding; others tore off pieces of their shirts, awkwardly attempting to bandage them. Suppressed sobs rose from one spot; a young guard, cradling his dying comrade, repeated in a choked voice, "Hold on...please hold on..."

"Young...Young Master...?" A cautious voice came from the carriage.

Ye Wei'an turned his head and saw that Ai Lian was leaning halfway out from behind the car door, looking him up and down, as if trying to make sure he was not injured.

"I'm fine." Ye Wei'an patted his chest, indicating that he was unharmed.

Eileen finally breathed a sigh of relief and gently lifted her skirt as she stepped down from the carriage. Looking at the busy and tragic scene around her, especially the pained expressions of the wounded guards, she unconsciously clenched the hem of her dress, her eyes filled with pity.

"Young master," she said softly, her voice pleading, "I... could I help take care of the wounded? I learned a little bandaging from the old nanny before..."

Ye Wei'an nodded: "Go ahead, be careful."

"Thank you, young master!" Eileen seemed to have been granted a pardon. She immediately took out a stack of white cloths from the car and ran to the area where the wounded were gathered.

Seeing this scene, Ye Wei'an remembered that his experience points were full.

He remembered that the [Cursefire Sorcerer] would gain healing spells after leveling up.

Without further hesitation, he immersed his consciousness into the system.

[The experience points have reached the threshold (764/600).]

Your level has increased. Please select a class to upgrade.

I'll still choose [Cursefire Sorcerer].

Your Pyromancer rank has been increased to level 3.

[You have mastered the following class spells: Healing, Fireball, Flame Bolt, Fire Ray, and Minor Restoration.]

You have acquired a new skill.

You have obtained two spells of your choice.

For a Fire Sorcerer, level three is a minor qualitative change.

Not only can he use second-circle spells, but he has also mastered several fire spells at once.

He quickly processed the new spells flooding his mind:

[Healing Spell]: A 1st-level spell that restores life force to the injured through contact—a skill that is most urgently needed right now.

【Spellfire Arrow】: A level 1 spell that conjures an energy arrow with both fire and light damage for ranged attacks.

【Blazing Flame】: 1st Ring spell, summons a burst of flame energy that ignores obstruction. More bursts can be summoned by leveling up the Ring, and it can attack multiple targets at the same time.

【Cursed Fire Ray】: A level 2 spell that fires three cursed fire rays to attack one or more targets.

[Lesser Restoration]: A 2nd-level spell that can remove many common negative status effects, such as paralysis, poisoning, or weakness.

In conclusion, these new spells not only compensated for his weakness in healing, but also greatly enriched his offensive capabilities.

In this way, his chosen spells can focus on utility spells.

Ye Wei'an chose two spells from the two available spells: [Transformation] and [Stealth Step], both at level 2.

【Stealth Step】: You are briefly enveloped in a silvery mist, teleported to a space within 10 meters that you can see and that is not occupied.

[Transformation]: You can change your form and choose one of the following three effects: Aquatic Adaptation, Appearance Change, or Innate Weapon.

Aquatic adaptations: Gills and webbed feet develop. You can breathe underwater and improve your swimming ability.

Change your appearance: You can customize your own appearance, including height, weight, facial details, voice, hair length, skin color, and even imitate other races (but you will not have racial abilities), but the range of changes cannot be too large.

Natural Weapon: You can grow offensive organs such as claws, fangs, horns, or hooves. The damage you deal with these organs is affected by your primary attribute.

【Stealth Step】is equivalent to teleportation, and is a very useful life-saving magic.

The Transformation spell has many uses. It can be used for infiltration, disguise, and emergency combat. It can be said to be an essential spell for home, travel, murder, and arson.

For her specialty, she chose "actor".

[Actor]: Your charm +1, you are harder to be detected when you disguise yourself as someone else, and you can imitate the sounds made by other creatures, including their voices.

This specialty, combined with the "appearance alteration" effect of the [Transformation] ability, can achieve near-perfect disguise.

He chose this skill combination because he estimated that he might need it in the future.

After the upgrade was complete, Ye Wei'an shifted his gaze from the internal system interface and refocused on the wounded soldiers in front of him.

Looking at the heavily injured guards before him, Ye Wei'an quickly assessed his remaining strength.

He had already used up a lot of first-level spell slots in the previous battles, but fortunately, leveling up also gave him the ability to recover his status.

"Gather all the seriously wounded people here and put them over here," he ordered, pointing to a relatively clean open space next to the carriage.

Upon hearing this, several guards who were tending to their companions hesitated.

An old soldier with a scarred face couldn't help but speak up: "Young master, they are badly injured. Moving them carelessly might..."

"Do as the young master says!" Knight Kane's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting the veteran.

The knight stepped forward, his stern gaze sweeping over the crowd: "Have you forgotten Young Master Ye Wei'an's performance just now? He's a powerful mage; he has his reasons for saying that. Your task is simply to carry out orders!"

With their superiors giving strict orders, the guards dared not disobey and began carefully moving their seriously injured colleague.

Soon, six seriously wounded men were placed in front of Ye Weian. Some of them had their abdomens cut open, some had broken arrow shafts stuck in their chests, and the others were all pale and weak in breathing. The one with the cut abdomen was almost on his last breath; if the guards had moved them any more roughly, he might have died on the spot.

In fact, Ye Wei'an did this out of necessity.

After advancing to the third level, he has a total of four first-level spell slots, which means he can cast [Heal] up to four times.

However, there are as many as six seriously injured people who need further treatment.

This is where the benefits of the Super Magic skill become apparent: [Dual Spells] allows a single-target spell to affect two targets.

The Healing Spell is a contact spell; it requires physical contact to activate.

To touch two wounded soldiers at the same time, Ye Wei'an could only have them gather the wounded together.

Amidst the tense and expectant gazes of the crowd, Ye Wei'an crossed his arms and chanted an incantation.

"Healing Technique"

hum-

A soft white light mixed with blue flames gathered between his palms.

Next, he began to activate the super magic skill [Double Spells].

The cursed fire suddenly grew larger, then split in two, encircling his two hands respectively.

When Ye Weian touched the two wounded men with his two hands, which were encircled by cursed fire, the guards watching became somewhat agitated.

The scene of the cursed fire igniting the flesh did not occur.

The destructive force, which should have been destructive, transformed into a healing light of life, seeping into the bodies of the two wounded.

The treatment was effective immediately.

The rolled-up skin stopped bleeding and closed up at a visible speed, and the arrow embedded in the body was slowly pushed out by the newly formed tissue.

The pale face of the wounded man on the right quickly regained some color, and his weak, intermittent breathing became steady and strong.

The most astonishing sight was the guard on the left, whose abdomen had been almost ripped open. Not only had his wound completely healed, but he was even using his elbows to prop himself up and try to sit up!

"By Losanda, the god of dawn..." one of the guards murmured.

"Great, Gareth, great, you're saved!" Some people even cried tears of joy.

"Long live Young Master Ye Wei'an!"

As soon as the first guard blurted it out, the other guards echoed him!

"Long live Young Master Ye Wei'an!"

In the eyes of the guards, Ye Wei'an was no different from a savior.
