Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel

Chapter 583 - Help

At the moment, the red-haired girl could be seen floating on a pond filled with countless flowers. Her previous erratic screaming and trembling was nowhere to be seen as they were now replaced with sereneness. Her expression was really calm and relaxed as her body was surrounded by the brightly glowing flowers inside the water.

"Master, is there really nothing you can do for her?" asked Emery in a worried tone. He was so worried that he couldn't stop himself from throwing his gaze to the red-haired girl.

Magus Xion who was next to him shook his head as he said, "Emery, the truth is any other magus with decent healing spells could probably help hes. Alas, I am not that kind of magus."

Even though his master unfortunately didn't have the capability to help Morgana even further, this added information from him did give Emery a hope as this could mean there was something within Magus Academy that could certainly save her.

Emery was reluctant to ask his master for another help as the other party had given too much help, in his opinion. Even so, he steeled his resolve and eventually asked because it involved Morgana's life. He asked his master if there was anything, an item or someone, that could be provided in order to save her.

Magus Xion showed a faint smile when he heard his disciple's plea.

"You really care about this girl, don't you Emery?"

The unexpected question caught the other girls who stood behind him off guard. Emery, however, surprisingly without hesitation nodded his head, telling his affirmation in the question.

Unfortunately, what Magus Xion revealed that even if he could find someone who could help, that person would be treated just like how the two Nephilim magus were. They would be forbidden from involving and helping matters regarding a lower realm individual.

What Magus Xion just did now was also considered a violation of the rules, even though it was just a simple energy pill.

Seeing the dejected look on his disciple's face, Magus Xion said, "You will return to the academy in nine months, Emery. If she is still in such a state by then, I'm sure you can find a cure for her. In fact, I will help you when that time comes."

Hearing this, Emery finally realized there was nothing else he could do at this moment. He also no longer wanted to trouble Magus Xion. Of course, he didn't forget to thank his master for the help.

The Fey girls also looked at Magus Xion with gratitude. Even though they didn't even understand half of what Emery and the man discussed, they could somehow feel there was hope for Morgana's recovery.

Magus Xion responded to their gestures by waving his hand slightly. He then walked towards the massive Gaia tree and stopped a few steps away from it. Emery could see that his master was looking at it with fascination in his eyes.

"Your planet is truly lucky to have her, Emery." said Magus Xion without turning his back from Emery and the others.

Then before Emery could respond, an image of the High Priestess gradually materialized in front of Magus Xion and seemed to be saying something as he could see the former's mouth moving.

However, it seemed that the conversation was carried out telepathically as Emery couldn't hear anything at all. He then saw how his master suddenly showed an alarmed expression for a second.

"I apologize, but I'm not allowed and unable to be involved in this." said Magus Xion. "I will do everything in my power to help and take care of them, but that's all the things I can promise."

Emery and Klea were seriously curious to know what the two were talking about, but they certainly didn't think that now was a good time to ask about it. Therefore, they could only repress their growing curiosity and keep it for another time.

It seemed the conversation was over as Emery saw his master turn around. The black-robed magus then said, "One thing that I can say, Emery, is that the Nephilims always thought about matters based on their self interest first. Therefore, I believe they will trouble you again in the near future."

Emery could roughly guess what his master meant as he knew that if it wasn't because of his master's presence, the other Nephilim Zeus' intention of descending was certainly to clean up the messes and finish the job his brother couldn't finish.

"Hades has lost his physical body, but as a magus, his soul already formed inside the spirit core. His brother can definitely help him gain his physical body again, but it might take dozen of years until he returns to normal."

Emery and Klea nodded their heads as they had thought so. After all, it was the only explanation as to why Zeus didn't hesitate to lay such 'severe' punishment.

Klea then said, "Master Xion, I think your concern is a bit unfounded . Even now, with the academy restrictions in place, Emery can already beat him.. I am sure in a few years, we will be strong enough to fight him."

Magus Xion shook his head at her words and said, "I already checked who this Hades is before I came here. Unfortunately for you, he is known as the least talented of the 6 siblings. Also about the restrictions, they actually have it much more harsh than you."

Emery and Klea were taken aback by what Magus Xion said, evident from the expressions on their faces.

"What do you mean, Master?" Emery asked, hoping for an explanation.

"You will learn about these stages soon, but without the restrictions, even I might not be able to beat Hades in a one-on-one fight."

The information Magus Xion revealed once again worried them, especially to Klea. She had been using her best spells in that battle earlier, but none of them had any real effect against the magus. And now, knowing that it wasn't even the magus' full strength had successfully made her extremely irritated.

After explaining about this, Magus Xion approached Emery and said, "Emery, I also am not allowed to stay in this world for long. Time is short and I have something important to discuss with you."

Emery realized that he hadn't asked why his master had the time to come to his world. After all, it couldn't be just a simple visit.

But apparently, his master wanted to speak with him alone, not even allowing Klea to join. Hence he left Klea with the Fey sisters as he walked out of the shrine with Magus Xion.

"What is it, Master?" asked Emery when he felt they had reached quite a secluded spot.

However, Magus Xion didn't seem to hear him as he continued to walk further into the woods. Seeing no response, Emery could do nothing but continue following the former. Every step that they took, past the rows of trees, made him worried.

Then suddenly, in what seemed to be the center of the forest, Magus Xion turned around and a serious expression appeared on his face. He took out the stone that he took from Morgana's chest and said, "Emery, this is the reason I came here. I need you to tell me where this power comes from!"
