Chapter 540: *Sacred fire*
Then, Mykael told her, "This was just an appetizer, my little Willow. Colin and I have prepared something for you that should help you take on your human form."
He winked at Colin, who smiled, and then he conjured up their true surprise for her. It was a circle made of Divine-grade magic crystals, fire energy crystals, and light energy crystals. Colin had taken care to place them in a circle so that their powerful energy would concentrate in the center, and Willow would just have to enjoy absorbing them.
Mykael then told her, "First, eat this meat I prepared especially for you; it will help you strengthen your body, and then you will be able to absorb even more particles of fire, light, and divine energy. Do not worry; Colin can change the crystals anytime, so just focus on your training."
Willow flew to Mykael, who welcomed her in his arms as usual, and she began to coo and rub her head against his neck to show him her gratitude and affection. Colin received the same treatment, and then Willow followed her grandfather’s advice and started eating her raw meat.
Colin and Kevin sat right next to her to watch over her, and Kevin immediately activated his Stage 2 to continue to absorb as many particles as possible from all the elements.
As for Mykael and Axel, since they also needed to absorb golden particles to create immunity against the black flames of Lilith and her Knight of Darkness, they decided to stay and train here as well, but they kept their distance so as not to interfere with Colin’s training.
Since Kevin only wanted to absorb particles from the elements of spiritual energy, they wouldn’t have disturbed him, but it was different for Colin.
Once in another corner of the training dimension for Mages, Mykael and Axel both chose to remove their tops, as the golden runes, once activated, would disintegrate them anyway.
After they sat down, Mykael started to focus on the runic symbols Axel had engraved on his upper body, and he immediately felt that the Divine energy was being absorbed by them. All he had to do was send more and more Divine energy into them, and gradually he could feel that his body was strengthening.
As for Axel, since it was a training dimension created by Miguel himself, he knew that he could train here without any worries, and so he too continued to send Divine energy into his golden runic symbols.
While meditating, he used this time to focus on his new knowledge and check if there were any runic symbols that he could use to help his friends become stronger, and finally, he found something very interesting.
It was a runic symbol that could be drawn on any Talisman paper with the help of Divine energy, and even if it wasn’t as efficient as the large Teleportation Talisman papers, it was very easy to make and everyone could use it.
This runic symbol was that of instant teleportation, and according to his knowledge, its range of action was 1 km. They would only need to touch this runic symbol drawn on the Talisman paper and focus on the place they wanted to teleport to be instantly teleported there.
As its range of action was only 1 km, it wasn’t really useful in their daily lives, but during a battle, instant teleportation could save a lot of lives, as not everyone could use the prison dimension or their personal dimension to teleport into a safe haven.
After discovering this runic symbol, Axel continued to examine the other ones in hopes of finding another that could be useful to everyone.
Still in the training dimension reserved for the Mages, Willow, after eating all the raw meat from this very powerful magical beast, came to sit in the center of the magic circle that Colin and Mykael had prepared especially for her, and she started to meditate right away.
She was already more powerful than most phoenixes in her animal form, but she couldn’t wait to be able to transform into a girl because fighting in her animal form was completely different from fighting in her human form.
Also, she knew that her dads, and grandfathers wouldn’t let her fight in the upcoming war.
But if she was able to turn into a girl, even in a child form, she would be better at using her healing powers, and it would be easier for her to help and treat people using the light element or by directly absorbing the golden particles for those who would be wounded by an attack using the Angelic Divine element.
Willow immediately felt the particles of fire and light invade her, as well as an immense flow of Divine energy, and she then concentrated because she absolutely had to use the method that her Clan, before having caused its own destruction, had managed to set up.
She had already done the preparations, and all that was left to do was to fill up this reserve of energy that she had created on purpose to be able to use the sacred fire—a mixture of fire and light particles that her Clan had managed to stabilize after years and years of experience. This sacred fire was so powerful that it could even evaporate lava.
Mykael was the only one who knew of the existence of the sacred fire, but she doubted that he realized how destructive this sacred fire could be.
So, Willow continued to absorb as many of the three elements as she could while filling the small reserve of energy she had created with the right amount of fire and light particles needed to be able to use the sacred fire if necessary.
Also, she didn’t know how much spiritual and Divine energy she needed to absorb to change her appearance, so she continued to send a continuous flow of Divine energy into her meridians that had just been strengthened by the magical beast raw meat she had just swallowed, and she felt that she could now flow much more Divine energy into her body.
