7 Healing powers

But he promised himself that he would protect them in the future, nobody would be able to hurt them in his presence. He wouldn't ever let them be bullied. He looked towards Shun and saw him brightly smiling as he also started to play with them.

They ate and playedwith each other, as time passed on, their feelings towards each other continued to grow stronger. Shun and Mira were nearly inseparable now, if Shun was not near her, Mira didn't feel right.

She felt as if she was missing something important. The same was the case for Shun, he stayed together with her and the feelings between them continued to grow stronger and stronger. Even Elfman and Lisanna could see that those two liked each other and didn't intervene.

Elfman felt that if anyone was worthy of his sister then that was Shun. He wouldn't let anyone else have Mira. As time passed on, Shun felt an unbearable sadness take over him, he knew that the one month time that Zagnivol had given him was almost up.

He was staring at the starry sky and felt someone else approach him. He turned his head and saw that it was Mira. She looked towards his face and saw worry etched onto it, she asked him with a worried expression on her face, "What happened Shun? Are you fine?"

Shun didn't reply for some moments, he spoke with some sadness in his voice, "I apologise Mira. I would have to leave today…" Mira's eyes widened as she heard that, she didn't understand why.

Why would he want to leave? Did he not have fun with them? There was only a single question, "Why?" Shun bitterly smiled as he heard her, he told her, "I really had fun with all of you but I will have to leave. Please understand Mira…"

He suddenly turned his face so as to hide his own tears but Mira caught sight of his tears running down on his face. She was saddened by his departure but she tightly hugged him as she expressed, "Alright, I will let you go. But you will have to come back to me when you get the chance."

Shun nodded his head excitedly, "Of course I will." With that he jumped down from the building and started to run towards the dense forest that surrounded the whole town. He disappeared into the darkness that shrouded the town right now.

Mira's tears started to fall down uncontrollably, she felt as if she had lost someone very important. Lisanna saw her sister crying and softly patted on her back as she spoke in her soft and comforting voice, "It's alright Big Sister. He already promised to come back as soon as he can."

What they didn't know what Shun also crying as he was running towards the position from where Zagnivol was supposed to pick him up. IT started to rain heavily as if the heavens were also sad right now.

The heavens couldn't tolerate the sadness for this boy and cried heavily. Soon enough, he heard a familiar voice, the voice of Zagnivol's wings fluttering. Zagnivol fluttered it's wings for some time before it landed on the ground.

He saw Shun crying and knew that he must have had great fun in this human world. But he knew that he would have to train him for some more time before his own time was up, he didn't want his son to be helpless while fighting against someone.

Shun stopped sobbing as he saw Zagnivol looking at him with those Big Black eyes. Shun wiped his tears and expressed his desire, "Let's go father. I will complete the training. Definitely!!"

HIs eyes contained a strange determination that wasn't visible before, Zagnivol felt a little weird when he saw that determination. In these years, even though Shun had learned the Dragon Slayer Arts very quickly it wasn't something legendary as his Pain resistance.

But now, now he felt as if he was going to watch a miracle. This was what was different from before, the determination to learn. Before he was just learning the Dragon Slayer Art because Zagnivol was being a bit forceful.

Shun's cold Blue eyes were shining brightly in this darkness, the rain had completely drenched his whole body and he didn't care about it at this moment. He jumped on top of Zagnivol's back and remained standing as Zagnivol took off with it's great speed.

It took them 3 hours to return back to their location where they would train, Shun didn't ask for food, he didn't ask for anything and jumped down as he started to train his body. Zagnivol was a bit dumbfounded as to what has happened to him but he was happy at this change.

He knew that if he trained like this then he would be able to achieve Dragon Force without that last resort. Shun continued to punch the rock till it broke down into pieces and then started to punch the other rocks around him.

Zagnivol watched this happen with a slight smile as he felt as if this was a legend in making. He suddenly had a thought and ordered Shun, "Perform your Secret Art!" Shun turned around and let out a breath.

He started to channel his Magic Energy and spoke, "Secret Art: Wrath of the Azure Dragon" Suddenly, the temperature of the place started to rise and Shun extended his hand as he released a small ball of fire in the air.

It started to increase in size, soon it increased its size to that of a Basketball and suddenly it expanded to double the size before. It seemed as if that was the max power he could execute right now and directed it towards a Huge Rock.

It was completely destroyed and was crushed into pieces. Shun turned towards Zagnivol and asked, "So, how was that?" Zagnivol looked surprised as he spoke without thinking at all, "Good, I am impressed that you can perform it to that level. Keep training this Art…"

Shun nodded as that was what he planned to do, he was a bit tired because of the Magic energy required for the Secret Art. Zagnivol's expression turned serious as it stated in it's powerful voice, "Since you have learned all the Basic and Secret moves of the Dragon Slayer. The time has come for you to learn the Healing powers of the Azure Flames."

Shun's eyes widened as he heard that the flames can be used for healing, he didn't know about that and a question presented in his head. Zagnivol knew what that expression meant and started talking with a slight regret, "You must be wondering why I didn't save your mother, right?"

Shun nodded his head as it shouldn't be a big deal for Zagnivol to save his mother, Zagnivol sighed as he started to explain, "The thing is that I couldn't. You don't remember much of that scene but at that time, your mother's body was hit with multiple spears and I couldn't heal her with those spears inside of her."

"If I healed her at that time then she would have to live with those spears inside of her and that is pretty dangerous, one wrong move and she is dead. And if I removed those spears then that would cause further movement and it would slice off her organs which would also kill her. So, I couldn't do anything in that situation."

Shun nodded as he had also thought of this, he was relieved that this was the case. He asked Zagnivol with a curious expression on his face, "So, when are we going to start training for the Healing power of the Azure Flames."

Zagnivol's face turned into a feral grin, it was like a hunter had found it's predator and was going through the ways to kill it. Shun gulped down but he was determined to learn it as soon as he could.

Zagnivol just spoke a single sentence that confused him, "Alright then, let's start sparring." His words caused Shun to be a little blank at that moment, he felt as if something was wrong, weren't they going to learn about the Healing power of the Azure Flames.
