Chapter 85: Grade 5 Affinity

"Maybe it's because we train holy magic. The magic that has a fairly high load on the body." Emily answered with a smile.

"Apart from that, perhaps they thought the rules of the Holy Church were different and somewhat restricting them. This is your guidebook." Lily distributed guidebooks to all students.

Elysia immediately read the guidebook quickly and thoroughly, she didn't want to join a place that was too restrictive. After reading the entire thin book, it seemed that she understood the perspective of the church.

Like once registering and can't get out easily, the Holy Church will teach holy magic in exchange for loyalty. All students who study will enter the church structure under the Pope's rule with penalties for the offender.

It is quite natural for her, considering that the Holy Church is a superpower with its own structure and is independent of any kingdom.

Although holy magic would be taught according to one's talents and abilities, it was still a heavy burden on the body and needed to be considered carefully.

She was a bit surprised to see the list of branches of holy magic, and the top one was life magic or what was known in the public as healing magic. Anyone capable of using life magic, they will be under the full protection of the church as long as they agree to help the church in certain circumstances.

'Wow! Holy magic can remove negative buffs too! As it turned out, it wasn't just healing magic, Lil Ely. Eh? Life magic...' Elena commented on the list of magic that is in the holy magic branch.

'Yes, it's no wonder that when I used healing magic, I was seen by so many students afterward.' Elysia responded and continued reading the manual to the end.

In conclusion, she did not mind and still joined the church. The rules are not too heavy and holy magic, she can use her imagination magic after knowing the theory. Loyalty does not mean having to be devoted wholeheartedly, but so as not to betray.

"Alright, after reading all that, do any of you want to retreat? Holy magic isn't easy you know?" Emily clasped her hands once together for attention.

"I still want to join, Priest Emily."

"I came to join, I already know the rules beforehand."

One by one the students expressed their agreement without a single student backing down. Only losers or people with the strength and status of pride would refuse an offer like this.

"That's great hehe... I'm glad to hear that." Emily put her palms on her cheek with a smile.

"Welcome to join the Holy Church." Lily was also happy.

Not many students are willing to join the church for these two reasons, holy magic, and loyalty.

Most of them think that serving in the church is wrong, and they are reluctant to practice holy magic because of the heavy burden on their bodies. They prefer to practice the magic they are good at and match their magic energy without any burden.

Not long after, the door to the room opened and entered a beautiful girl dressed in a golden white priest dress similar to other priests.

Her long golden hair shook softly while she was walking and blue eyes like blue diamonds under the clear sky, she walked onto the stage with a pleasant smile on her radiant face.

"Good morning, Priest Gabriella." Emily and Lily greeted politely and warmly.

"Yes, good morning to you, Priest Emily and Priest Lily. I have come to help you. Good morning to all of our new deacons. My name is Gabriella Celestine, a third-year student at the academy who has just become a priest." Gabriella introduced herself with grace and charm.

"I'm here to make membership cards for you and classify you according to your affinity for holy magic. You can step forward to the stage one by one."

She took out a transparent pyramid crystal from her [Space Bag] and the students in the front row stepped forward one by one from the right.

Elysia was a little awkward when she heard the name of the priest girl who had the same surname as an old man with emperor-class strength whom she met in the Holy Library. She looked at Gabriella whose proportions had some things in common with Evelyn with some thoughts.

'She is the granddaughter of Pope Alexander Celestine?'

'Most likely, they share the same surname. I didn't expect his granddaughter to be so young.' Elena also joined in the commentary in mind.

'Yes, he is more than a thousand years old. How old are Gabriella's parents, I wonder?'

The two of them chatted for a while until her turn finally arrived, Elysia immediately stepped forward after Evelyn finished making her membership card.

"Hi."

"Hello. Put your hand on the tip of this crystal and flow some of your magic, we will know your affinity." Gabriella stuck the card into the base of the device in her hand as she greeted back.

Elysia immediately did what was asked, her affinity being measured and her body being scanned from the hand to the rest of the body just like the way it was done in the Holy Library.

Gabriella's eyes widened slightly as she saw the white light on the crystal rise and immediately fill all the parts of the crystal down to the tip. Grade 5 holy magic! The same affinity as her!

[| Lv. 21 | Grade 5 |]

An explanation appeared on the side of the pyramid crystal, Elysia peeked at it with her advanced perception.

"What is your name, junior sister?"

"Elysia Avery."

Elysia answered immediately and Gabriella did something with the crystal and took out the white gold membership card that was stuck there.

"This is your membership card, Elysia Avery, nice to meet you."

Elysia accepted the card with a smile and returned to her seat beside her friend.

"Ely, what about your grade? Woah, Grade 5. Highest grade. No wonder you can use healing magic hehe... Look at mine, Grade 3. I have a chance to use healing magic like you too if I practice well."

Evelyn cheerfully asked and responded happily when she saw Elysia's membership card, she tried to keep her voice not too loud.

"That's good for you, Eve. Hopefully, we're in the same group."

"Yes, yes. I hope we can practice magic together again."

Several students overheard the conversation of the two talented girls and looked at their member cards which were written with Grade 1 or Grade 2, their journey would be quite difficult.

Brian looked at his membership card with a complicated look, Grade 1. Very distant affinity for pursuing Elysia with the same group approach. He and David might only be able to train themselves in holy magic to the first level.

"Okay, everything is done with your new membership card. Please follow the rules stated in the guidebook and you will be fine. Once again welcome to the Holy Church." Gabriella put the pyramid crystal back into her [Space Bag] and then held her hand in front of her in a polite pose.

"Priest Gabriella, how are we going to divide the study group?" Emily asked with a smile.

"I only attended Grade 5 training and this is my first time becoming a Priest, what do you think is the best?" Gabriella tilted her head a little confused, she wasn't very experienced.

"Em, then what if you only invite students with affinity grades 3 to 5? That way you will have no trouble studying together." Emily suggested recommendations for her.

"Yes, that's fine. We'll do with it."

Gabriella nodded happily, she will be responsible for two students and one of them is a girl who has the same affinity as her. She had absolutely no idea about the device she was using couldn't measure more than grade 5.
