Chereads / The Divine Mage System / Chapter 3 - A whitish aura

Chapter 3 - A whitish aura

Cassy smiled contentedly, she had long silky soft caramel hair that reached down to the middle of her back, she wore a peasant blue dress with white lace to mark her cleavage that showed almost nothing of her white skin.

Her face was heart-shaped with beautiful cheekbones, she had a pretty little nose and a sensual mouth that had a natural red tint that contrasted with the color of her skin which was, as the rest of her body, rather white.

And finally her eyes were still blue but they were darker than before, they were more of a sapphire color and they were almond shaped with long eyelashes, in a word... She was gorgeous!

After that she sat down by the river to think about her options.

She tried to contact that Divine Mage System but she didn't get any answer.

Maybe she had to complete the first mission alone…

Well, as she was all alone, she had no intention of going back to that orphanage or school, the body of this girl was also 18 years old and she was simply going to change her identity and take it over, she would keep the name her parents had given her.

The problem was that apart from her clothes, she didn't even have any shoes left, this girl had probably lost them when she fell into the river.

Without a penny in her pocket it was hard to want to become independent, except for her powers she still seemed to possess and master as usual, she had nothing... Her powers... It reminded her of something.

If she continued along this river she would arrive at the city of Catara, and just today and tomorrow, all those who wished to take the tests to enter the mixed Academy of Catara could do so.

It was a mixed Academy not because girls and boys were mixed together but because the Academy of Catara taught both Mages and Warriors.

Cassy, who had no doubt that she would be able to enter the Academy by passing the tests for Mages, thought that it was really the ideal solution to all her problems.

If she entered the Academy, she would be fed and housed, and she would learn to use and develop her powers.

It was also a good place to start looking for this strongest Warrior, even if he wasn't in this Academy, she will probably be able to hear about him.

Now that she knew what to do, she got up and started to walk along the edge of the river, the fact that she was barefoot was really not practical and it slowed her down a lot, but as she was moving slowly, it allowed her to discover something very interesting.

When she looked towards the forest at the foot of the trees that were only a few meters away from her, there were often grasses that had different colors and shapes, she had not paid too much attention to them until she saw one of them surrounded by a whitish aura that looked like a bit to the aura she could see around people.

Intrigued she went to look closer and realized that this herb seemed to be in better condition than the ones around her.

Suddenly notifications appeared just above these herbs, they were all the same but the one with the whitish aura were of high grade compare to the other which were of normal grade.

[Magic herb level 3 Lupius, high grade]

Magic herb?

But after asking the system for more information, a new message finally appeared in her mind.

[To get more information, you have to open your spiritual mind]

And how could she do that?

[You have first to become a Mage to open all the functions of the Divine Mage System]

Alright, then her first idea was the right one, she had to enter this academy first before she could use this System, because apparently even though she could still use her powers, she wasn't yet recognized as a Mage by this System... Maybe she would have to do something special to open her spiritual spirit?

She had no idea, and after looking at these herbs an idea then came to her mind, and she decided to dig them up, after all he who tried nothing had nothing.

Her mother often went to buy medicinal herbs from an apothecary and in the city of Catara, she would inevitably find a store that would buy magic herbs from her, especially the one that seemed to be of high grade.

If she was going to enter this academy she would probably need money, maybe she would have to pay fees, books, and other things she didn't know about, and she still needed to buy new shoes and new clothes,  she couldn't wear only this…dress, it will be really inconvenient and this dress really didn't fit her at all.

She leaned over and realized that the soil was loose, so she started to dug slightly around the magic herb of high grade careful not to damage its roots when she would remove it from the ground, because still thanks to her mother, she had learnt that some herbal roots were as important as the herb itself.

And once she had managed to dig up this magic herb without damaging it, she looked at the remaining herbs and decided to do a little experiment.

Her healing gift didn't only apply to humans, she could also heal nature with it and make it bloom.

There were 9 other magic herbs like the one she had just dug up and since the soil was loose here if she could make them have that whitish aura around them, she could easily harvest them all, it was worth a try.

She then put her hands on the ground without hesitation and called upon her other flame, the first one she had used that represented the fire was red, while the one she used to heal people and nature was white.
