If the magic scrolls are items that the regular players only keep to use in the emergencies, there were some unique items like the scrolls that the guilds or bigger player groups used in times of necessity.

These items contained powerful spells or could do things that the players normally cannot, and the thing that she handed him was one of those unique things.

“It has a (tier-5) Grace spell of light and water attribute, (Pearl Cleanse). We can use it three times a month, so… don’t ask for something like this again.”

A spell tome- an object that has a certain kind of powerful spell engraved on it which could be used multiple times.

Though, they weren’t items that one could find just anywhere.

“Alex…”

Any spell above the (tier-4) was considered a high-level spell. And, since the tomes were scarce items that were used to contain powerful spells, they were mostly only used to store destructive spells or barrier spells or restrictive spells.

One cannot find many of these tomes containing a healing spell, specifically one that cleansed physical ailments was a near impossible thing even in this age.

“Thanks.”

He knew as a special high level player who had traveled one of the most among the existing players of this world, she possessed things that not even some of the rankers knew the existence of.

She was just a logical person that did not see the worth of helping a creature like this one, and yet she was giving a precious item to him.

“Huuuu…”

He was grateful for her help. Their relationship and this game had nothing to do with each other so it was perfectly fine that she wanted to keep her things to herself.

But, she was helping him for his stubborn and dumb request.

“Muuuu!”

And he was thankful for that.

-Ooooooooooooong!

He used his Aura to activate the item, and since his Aura was only needed for activation, he did not die of excessive Mana drain.

He was still a beginner and did not know much about magic just yet, so he did not have even a fourth of Mana required to cast a spell of this level.

If he had tried to use something like this while he was still far from being strong enough, he would have died instantly.

But since spell tomes gathered the required Mana for the spell’s activation from their surroundings, anyone who could activate it could use these objects.

-Oooooooooooooong!

When activated, the verses on the spell tome lit up first, and after each of the words in that unknown language were glowing with the arcanian light, the tome itself started glowing up as Mana from all over its surrounding started being sucked towards it.

-Zaaaaaa!

A magic circle unlike anything Elio had seen in the book they studied a while ago materialized on top of the spell tome…

“Aim the spell right!”

He had to hold the time with both his hands because of how it was vibrating. His grip on the tome was almost the same as the grip of someone hanging by the last thread of hope.

-Ooooooooooong!

He had aimed the magic at the little creature and though suffering, the creature’s open eyes could see how this person, this unknown being was doing something with that strange object.

The creature did not know what was going on here, but… it did not have any strength to even move, much less do something to avoid what was going on here.

“Now!”

The spell circle that finally materialized was three times the size of the magic circles that Elio had used until now.

It was even bigger than the spell circles that appear after using the magic scrolls.

-ZAAAAAA…!

Even for a (tier-5) spell, the spell that they were seeing was more complex and detailed– and there was something ancient to it. Something that the magic of today could not compare to.

“Muuuuuuuuu!”

The spell that was created somehow produced a condensed fluid in the air right before the creature on the ground, and… when the golden drop that resembled the mythic heavenly elixir touched the now nearly lightless body of the gecko, a new golden light exploded!

-OOOOOOOOOONG!

-SWIIIIIIISH…!

Winds started blowing from all directions with them in the center but they did not touch them, for some reason.

The lightless creature that seemed to be on the verge of death slowly regained its light, and the blue light inside of it started growing brighter!

The golden light that had exploded had illuminated a large part of the forest around them. And in the evening of twilight, this golden light seemed like the second sun to the creatures of nature.

“SHCEEEEEEE!”

-Thudam! Thudam! Thudam!

Surely there was a distress all around the forest with some creatures running away from the sudden light, afraid of its mere existence. While some nocturnal creatures that were just becoming active were somehow attracted to this strange light.

-Ooooooooong…

However, at the end, the creatures could not find the source of this light since it only lasted for a few moments before disappearing completely, leaving the four of them… as well as the small crystal gecko that had regained all its light– and had obtained golden spots all over its body in addition.

“Miu?”

The creature did not know what had just happened, however, it could surely open its eyes once again.

“Miu!”

It did not feel the pain that had overwhelmed it just a moment ago, and now it was suddenly feeling all better.

Additionally, it strangely also felt something new that it had never felt before. But, it was still unknown to it.

“Muuuuuuuu!”

Seeing the now fine creature, Az jumped up excitedly and reached the little gecko.

It seemed happy to see the little creature with that bright smile.

“Miu!”

And, somehow, the gecko was also excited to see the little slime.

“Miu!”

“Muuuu!”

The smile on the gecko’s face had widened and become even more brighter after seeing Az. And, as Elio could feel, his familiar creature was the happiest he had ever seen it.

“See?”

The interaction of the two creatures was a special sight, even to someone who had been in this world for almost a decade now.

“You were right.”

Alex could not help but sigh with a helpless smile on her face as she accepted the spell tome back from her partner.

He was right this time as well.

If she had let the little creature– Az’s little friend– just suffer and die like that, the slime that she liked so much must have been sad.

She didn’t even know what might become of it if the sadness of losing its friend right before its eyes helplessly had stayed with it for long.

Unlike Elio, the slime was not a human but a creature of nature. It might possess Emotions, but they were not as complex as what the humans did.

It was merely a tamed beast, one that could also use Mana and magic so, there was no telling what it might have ended up doing had it lost its friend because of her inactions.

“Muuuu~.”

“Miu!”

Well, things turned out well at the end. And now the two friends were happily greeting one another.

“Anyway, what are those golden dots?”

Now, if she could only get the answer to that, she would be able to go back to the town with a peaceful mind.
