208 Unleashing a wind bomb

“How are you doing this?” Vincent asked at the familiar scene before him. After reading too many stories, Vincent felt nostalgic by the sphere of mana, wind, or energy spinning between her hands.

Ester looked at Vincent and lost her concertation. The sphere suddenly spun at a different speed and went off course, causing it to jump from her hands and fall...

*Boom*

After the sphere of compressed wind with mana inside touched the ground, it dug a few inches inside the earth. After the wind started getting mixed with different contents, the sphere suddenly exploded. Soil and grass flew everywhere, and a small cloud of dust covered most of their view.

*Cough, cough* “Is everyone uninjured?” Vincent asked, coughing from the cloud of dust.

“I am okay... but a little soil entered my, my, my...” *Achoo!* Lupa loudly sneezed.

“I am so sorry. I was training with Frost Sigil to keep the leaves in my hands frozen. Suddenly I felt my head hurt a little, and then I remembered something I never knew. When I tried what I felt I always knew... this happened.” Ester explained what happened from her perspective.

[Third Eye activate.]

[Wind Sigil description.]

[Creates a Sigil to attract wind-based mana and gain the ability to bend the wind to the user’s will based on the user’s proficiency.]

.

[Third Eye activate.]

[Amplify Sigil description.]

[Amplifies a sigil spell from the inside by creating a copy of the amplified sigil inside and slightly boosts the original sigil. The more proficiency the user has, the more the copy will be able to reach the power of the original.]

.

Vincent almost gasped at the description of Amplify Sigil. It didn’t look like a balanced spell. However, the mana consumption might be over the roof, he believes.

[Now that’s why all of Freerie were acting strangely quiet and then became energetic all of a sudden.]

[As for the spells, well, I can say your fiancee team has become considerably stronger, and the harem is starting to become a force to be reckoned with.]

-You make it sound as if I will have a harem army in the future.-

[Who knows, hehehe.]

-...-

“Ester, congratulations are in order. I told you, didn’t I? It would be best if you never doubted yourself. Look at the hole you made in the ground from a mistake.” Vincent pointed down at a melon-sized hole in the ground.

The hole was a few inches deep, and after further inspection, the traces led to believe something small exploded. The compressed wind and compressed mana swirling at high speed didn’t drill the hole, Vincent concluded.

“I’m sorry.” Ester apologized again. Then she explained, “I tried both spells I never used... I mean, I never had. It still feels a bit confusing. I wished to surprise the two of you, but I lost control and almost left a hole in...”

“Don’t blame yourself too much!” Vincent interrupted. “I’m happy with your new destructive power, Bombardier Ester.” He continued with a joke.

“What does bomb... bombardier mean?” Lupa became curious. She secretly hoped the title wasn’t as great as hers.

“To explode the target with the force of the blast. Our strength increased with the addition of your two spell awakenings, but remember to train carefully more than ever. I can’t regrow limbs.” Vincent said.

Lupa looked at Ester smiling and then looked at Vincent smiling at her. “Best girl Lupa is a better title!” She cutely insisted while puffing her cheeks.

“Vincent, I understand. And my powerful sister Lupa, you are the top wolf.” Ester said. She decided to use Amplify Sigil more cautiously because this spell was the reason the wind gained so much power to form a sphere.

“Okay.” Lupa changed her mood in the blink of an eye. She became happy for Ester now. Lupa’s competitive nature makes her look quite naive, silly, and sometimes cute.

[How about we let Ester try making a ball of wind again? To boost her confidence and all.]

Kazumi suggested. However, she was mainly interested to see how a spell worked with a spell booster. Ester having her confidence boosted was secondary.

“Do you want to try using Amplify Sigil on both of your sigil spells?” Vincent appeared to be similarly interested to know Ester’s now power. He wanted to assess their survival percentage in a group fight.

Ester nodded and walked up to a tree. A pair of frosty sigils soon appeared on the back of her hands, with a sudden cold mist appearing from her hands after she amplified her Frost Sigil.

Ester extended both her hands to touch the tree. At a second glance, her hands looked as if they were covered in dry ice.

Ester stopped and sat on the ground after a minute of touching the tree. She looked tired after one minute of activation. However, this is the second time Ester used Amplify Sigil on two sigils at once.

The curious Lupa quickly went to check. She saw a finger-sized small dot with a different color, and it was also emitting cold. “Sister has the power of winter! Look, look! The tree is ice!” She announced after getting surprised by the frozen dot.

Vincent and Kazumi went to take a look next. As Lupa announced, the dot showed how the tree was in the process of becoming frozen.

[Trees are difficult to freeze... well, let’s say I don’t have memories from your past about a tree freezing into an icicle.]

[Ester isn’t a refrigerator anymore. I, at this moment, announce that Ester is promoted to a cryo freezer and not the previous I feel colder refrigerator.]

-I hope you don’t tell Ester that title. Now you have to worry about Freerie getting angry in Ester’s stead and start ignoring you.-

Kazumi turned her gaze at a small wolf running after many butterflies playing catch. A thought Kazumi never had suddenly made her hesitate to tease further. However...

[I’ll slip in the joke slowly.]

Kazumi’s urge to tease Ester couldn’t be appeased.

“Is your mana empty? You did a lot of training and used a lot of spells. Rest for now.” Vincent said.

Ester clenched her fists and got up. She walked in front of a tree and reassured, “I have for one more.”

Shortly, a pair of slightly swaying windy sigils released a breeze of wind. The moment Amplify Sigil increased the potency, a layer of wind became visible.

The appearance was somewhat similar to Ollie’s wind armor, yet the wind didn’t appear as intense. The wind didn’t give the feeling of being there to protect or attack. It was doing as the spell detailed and simply attracting a breeze when not amplified. The wind was collected without any offensive or defensive orders.

Ester focused and tried to repeat the process. Ester recalled and followed what she learned from Kazumi to save her life the first time they met.

Ester controlled the wind to gather between her hands, and after a few seconds of deep concentration, a destructive sphere of wind appeared and gradually expanded.

“Hyaaa!” Ester shouted while shoving her right arm with the sphere of destruction a few inches in front of her palm.

*Boom! Crack, crack... thud!*

Ester blew a hole in the tree, and after the foundation became weaker, the tree trunk started to break. It didn’t take too long for the tree to begin falling in the opposite direction.

Ester felt tired and her legs weak. She also felt pain all over her body. As she looked down, multiple small splinters shot by the force of the blast were stuck in her body. ‘I don’t want to worry Vin...’ She thought before fainting.

Vincent and Lupa rushed to Ester’s side deeply worried. Ester had eight small splinters truck in her body, but they seemed to have penetrated enough to cause bleeding after removal.

“Lupa, help me to quickly remove the splinters so that I can heal Ester without letting her lose too much blood.” Vincent urgently instructed. Lupa nodded and went to the opposite side of Vincent to start the emergency procedure.

“Soul Power Minor Heal, Soul Power Minor Heal!” Vincent uttered after pulling out the splinters. Fainting was a blessing in disguise since he wasn’t going to see Ester’s contorted face in pain.

[-10sp used for Soul Power Minor Heal on Ester. Blessed Retainer discount activate. 110sp Remaining.]

[-10sp used for Soul Power Minor Heal on Ester. Blessed Retainer discount activate. 100sp Remaining.]

.

Ester became encased by healing green light. The bleeding stopped, and the wounds started to close. Almost after the light faded and the healing stopped, the wounds disappeared as if she was never injured in the first place. Vincent would have used more healing spells if the two heals weren’t enough.

Even though Kazumi wasn’t going to see Ester’s wound scars, she started feeling guilty for making the suggestion. The memory of what happened could never be forgotten. Only archived.

However, it was fortunate that her Photographic Memory was an active skill instead of being a passive skill. Never forgetting her suggestion was about to kill a person she knew might be crushing.

Later that day, Lupa cleaned and dressed Ester in spare clothes Vincent left in his Soul Dimensional Storage.

.....

It was a precaution mainly because it might become a problem if Lupa shapeshifted into her white wolf form, maybe to hunt with her speed and forget where her clothes fell after a chase.
