After Kariel used wind magic to speed them up, the two quickly returned to the New Sprout Street Church.
As soon as they entered the garden, Kariel noticed the drenched crowd by the water vat.
Seeing Loran, Mrs.
Lawrence called out hurriedly.
“Lady Loran, thank God, you’ve finally returned.”
They had been worried that they had been abandoned since Loran had been gone for so long.
At this moment, they all used honorifics; it was rare for a Transcendent Beings like Loran to sympathize with the commoners at the bottom of society.
At the same time, they also saw a black cat standing behind Loran.
“Sister Loran, there is a kitty behind you.”
Little Ellie, shivering from being rinsed with cold water, pointed behind Loran in surprise and said.
What the heck?
Kariel is behind her, right?
Loran was full of confusion and turned her head to look, but there was no sign of Kariel; instead, there was an elegant black cat with shiny fur crouching in place.
Seeing Loran look over, the black cat took a running start, jumped onto Loran’s shoulder, and then scrambled up to land on top of Loran’s head.
“Little Loran, it’s me.
This is just a small trick to deceive people.”
Kariel’s voice came to her ear; clearly, she didn’t want to reveal her identity and had used some kind of transformation spell.
Loran kept her expression natural while balancing the cat on her head.
She waved her hand and said to little Ellie:
“This is the church’s pet cat; you just haven’t seen it before.”
“Rest assured, there is already a solution to the problem with your bodies.”
She then approached the crowd and raised her hand, pretending to cast a Healing Spell.
The black cat Kariel on her head was very cooperative; she patted with her cat paw, and a torrent of magic swept over everyone’s bodies.
“Alright, you are fine now.
Go dry off and change your clothes.”
“Don’t touch the clothes you took off; there are robes in the laundry room behind the church.”
The group expressed their thousand thanks and walked toward the back garden.
However, Mrs.
Lawrence and her daughter remained where they were and did not leave.
“Lady Loran, how is my husband?”
“He will be fine.
You two go change your clothes first.”
“Otherwise, the little one will catch a cold in a while, and then we’ll need another bottle of anti-sickness potion.”
The mother and daughter finally felt relieved and left after expressing their thousand thanks again.
In her Elemental Sight, the clothes everyone had taken off and the wastewater left on the ground were all contaminated.
Clearly, this way of dealing with it had a good effect.
Although it couldn’t stop the pollution of the magic circulating in their bodies, it slowed down the rate of deterioration.
“Little Loran, you seem quite adept at dealing with this kind of situation, yet you have absolutely no knowledge of the existence of magic pollution.”
“As far as I know, no major magic academy has this kind of emergency plan, especially for this new type of trace pollution.”
“Where on earth did you get this knowledge from?
Lit-tle ~ Lor-an?”
Hearing the words coming out of the black cat’s mouth, Loran’s head swelled.
How are the natives of this other world so cunning?
She had no choice but to laugh it off, change the subject, and mumble nonsense as she brought the black cat into the church.
As soon as they entered the church, the young worker sitting to the side stood up impatiently.
“Lady Loran, you’ve returned.”
“Yes, don’t worry, there is a way to treat it.
Let me look at your arm again first.”
Loran commanded, though in reality, it was Kariel who wanted to observe the wound.
The young man immediately raised his hand; on his left arm, large, swollen red blisters had formed, and his skin had mottled red marks.
“Hmm…
it is indeed slow and trace magic pollution.
How exactly is this done?”
Kariel’s voice appeared in her ear again, and Loran replied.
“I suspect it’s the magic furnace they mentioned.
Before the illness started, he and Mr.
Lawrence had repaired the magic furnace together.”
Kariel shook her head.
“Impossible.
If the magic furnace had so much chaotic magic, it would have exploded long ago.
This is a very precise piece of equipment.”
“Forget it, let’s treat him first; we can talk about the matter later.”
Subsequently, with Loran’s Healing Spell and Kariel’s cooperation, the young man and Lawrence quickly got rid of the magic pollution.
Kariel also thoughtfully swept the church with magic, completely eradicating the magic pollution.
At this moment, the more seriously injured Lawrence also woke up; not yet fully conscious, he started shouting.
“Quick…
quickly tell everyone to leave the magic furnace!
There is a plague in the magic furnace!”
Then they realized.
In the eyes of commoners, isn’t magic pollution just like a plague?
Lawrence, on the sickbed, seeing Loran stunned and motionless, increased his volume, a hoarse voice shouting from his throat.
“Little girl, don’t just stand there, hurry away from me, I have the plague!”
“Go tell everyone not to go near the magic furnace!”
Looking at Lawrence’s heaving chest, Loran was really afraid that this old man would pass out again just after waking up, so she hurriedly explained:
“Calm down, Mr.
Lawrence!
I am a nun of the church.
You have already been cured; you do not have the plague.”
Upon hearing this, Lawrence immediately raised his hand.
Indeed, the blisters on his hands had peeled and scabbed over, slowly regenerating and repairing under the residual effects of the Healing Spell.
At the same time, the pain in his body had disappeared, and now it only felt like he had a bad cold.
“Re…
really, I’m fine.
Haha, I survived.”
Lawrence forced his body to sit up, looked at his hands, and laughed with the relief of someone who had survived a disaster.
He looked at Loran, then immediately recognized her; this was the nun from the newly opened church near the Docks, her name seemed to be…
Lola?
“Thank you, Lady Lola, thank you for saving my life.”
“My name is Loran.”
“Lawrence: ‘…'”
“Uh…
sorry!
Lady Loran, I rarely came to the church to attend morning services before.
Please rest assured, I will definitely donate to the church after I go back.”
“Thank you so much, you are my savior!”
Loran immediately smiled.
“Ahahaha, that’s great!
Remember to buy two more bottles of anti-sickness magic potion to take back then.”
If it were any other proper nun, she would definitely start preaching about the God of Light now.
Loran didn’t do that; she wasn’t just short on money, she was also short on faith.
At this moment, the ding-ding-dang-dang sound of faith collection prompts in her mind made her eyes squint with happiness.
She just didn’t notice the grave expression on the black cat on her head.
