Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

And the rook guy’s previous assumption was right, since ”Flash Heal” and ”Restoration” have continuous effects so long as one keeps pouring mana into them, which is why Loren’s body healed without the need of her casting the spell time and time again.

She only casted them again to further increase the healing, thus increasing the vitality that was being stored in her body, which resulted in her strength and toughness to improve, naturally there was a limit of how much her body could take without suffering immediate damage and past that, Loren had to use Fountain of Life to heal herself.

As of current, she could maintain the continuous usage of Flash Heal and Restoration times two before her body started suffering immediate damage, she just went beyond that to times three in order for her attacks to be directly able to cause damage to the enemy, that was the dynamic behind her ”Immortal Armor”.

And then we have the other technique she used, since it was closer to a fighting technique than to a spell, being the byproduct of the usage of a spell, ”Rupture Burning Mark”.

It was the combination of the way she previously used her light to make the body of her opponents rupture from the inside and the ”Burning Point” she was bestowed by Daimon, basically every time she clashed against the martial art of the enemy, she implanted a wisp of vitality into it, to then make them explode creating cracks into them.

This wouldn’t have worked with other light healing mages, since as subtle as it is, ”regular” light element would cause some discomfort to a race like nethereals as they are extremely leaned towards the negative side of the energy spectrum.

But the light element of Loren’s family can be used on races with that nature, since they are one of said races as well, hence why their light is not ”pure” white colored by yellow toned instead.

Seeing the confident smile on Loren’s pretty face, the rook guy realized that if he didn’t finish things up soon, the enemy’s strength might increase enough to even overpower him head on.

’This bitch is crazy, she is a mage and yet she isn’t letting out a sound after receiving all those wounds, whatever she is, her heling factor is insane, so…’.

”Boooom!”, a huge pillar of battle aura raised into the sky with David as its origin as he directly entered the strongest state that the special corps of the Balax army could achieve.

”Earth Special Corps, Vice-Captain!”, as a sign of the fact that he wasn’t really lower in rank when compared to Ethan, the name of the martial art he used to enter this state in which his nether battle aura fused with his skin through the usage of those marks that Daimon first saw at the black stone corridor that led him to Neptune, included the title of ”Vice-Captain”.

The result was similar to Ethan too, he didn’t need to stall the enemy, to prepare for it, instead of that, his battle aura armor fused with his skin and a dark brown pattern covered his body.

But contrary to let alone show any kind of concern, the light brown-haired girl seemed… happy?

High into the sky, a light of surprise flashed through Daimon’s purple amethyst eyes as he felt two familiar sensations coming from Loren, which made him chuckle behind his mask.

’These girls, seriously’, he thought as he focused back on the fight.

”Booom!”, a pillar of light that equaled that of the battle aura released by the enemy a second ago, exploded out of Loren, however there was a big difference between this time, and that is the fact that the light being radiated by Loren was… white colored.

”You!”, the rook guy was momentarily as a loss as he felt the threatening sensation coming from that white light.

”Don’t worry, my light doesn’t specifically target anyone… it can affect both the positive and negative sides of the energy spectrum”, said Loren as the white light mana from earlier was absorbed into her body, resulting in some locks of her pretty light brown hair to turn blond.

It was also a familiar tone of blond, as in it was quite similar to Jasmine’s bright blond colored hair, something she shared with the light hero idiot, Adam, which was basically a sign of a strong light affinity.

Amusingly enough, contrary to what one would expect, white hair is more associated to ice affinity than to light affinity, of course white hair can also be a hint of a strong light affinity, but that’s not what’s important right now, but the fact that Loren had actually awakened a second light affinity.

That was the first ”familiar” feeling Daimon suddenly got from her, since he was reminded of the older Lamia princess, Ferris, the difference being that Ferris was born that way, while Loren became a dual light affinity mage at a later age.

But that didn’t mean she was worse than the Lamia princess at all, specially because a second light affinity wasn’t everything the now mixed light brown- and blond-haired girl had to show.

So far, Loren only has used what she already had in a much more efficient way, that put her at the same level of Calvin and the others prior to their most recent improvement, however she was now going to use the reward she obtained from her challenge.

”The sensation of threat you are feeling is because, is because I can now use light for more than healing and support, but it’s too soon for you to be afraid”.

”Universal Light”, with a couple of words, Loren’s body was covered in yellow and white light, which then compressed and turned into a light-yellow glow that seemed to burn around Loren.

The previous made let alone the enemies, but even those at the resting area nearly freeze in shock.

”HAHAHAHAHA, take that you fucking bastard!”, the one to break the silence was none other than Calvin who laughed so hard, Michel nearly went deaf for a second.

For a change, he couldn’t blade Calvin though, and that’s because Loren had… become a variant.

That was the second familiar sensation Daimon felt from her, since it’s easier for a variant to notice another one and Daimon is the rarest and most complex out of all the variants in the four galaxies, thanks to his ”Demon Light”, though the strongest known variant is for sure the werewolf girl, Aura.

’What the hell, she combined two different light elements… but I don’t feel any extra danger than compared to before, she fucking playing with me!!!’, inwardly swore the rook guy as he shouted.

”Battleground Charge!”, David whose image disappeared from plain sight, appeared in front of Loren to then punch at her head.

”Battleground Mountain Crush!”, his gauntlet cladded right hand exploded in dark brown battle aura that surged towards Loren, who this time didn’t user her small fists to meet the enemy attack head on.

”Flash Heal”, instead she used her healing spell, very much to the happiness of the enemy.

’Too late, I could feel your strength returning to its original state earlier, your body won’t be able to endure a direct hit from my fist now!’, he screamed in his heart.

David was right, just like how every active martial art was dispelled when he entered this state, the threefold Flash Heal and Restoration combo she was using, was dispelled when Loren’s light elements were combined into one.

And thus, the vitality enhancing her body stopped being maintained and had started to leak out of her, which meant that her strength and toughness diminished with each second.

Which is why David was happy, since she was one step too late to return to the level she has attained earlier.

However, instead of vitality gathering in Loren’s body, what actually happened is that her body glowed in that light yellow light and for a change, David directly screamed due to pain.

”Aghhhh!”, now imagine his expression when smoke started coming out of the nether battle aura that was cladding his body, his own battle aura was harming him due to it being burned, and the pain he felt came from the inside, which made sense since battle aura just like mana, uses the mana circuits to circulate through the body.

And the surprises didn’t stop there, Loren’s right hand exploded in that light yellow colored mana as she punched at David’s chest, not without saying.

”Restoration!”, it was strange to listen to the name of a healing spell being shout in such a fierce way, but everything made sense once Loren’s pretty fist landed on the enemy’s armored chest.

”Aghhhhh!”, the impact wasn’t as strong as earlier, in pact Loren couldn’t break through the skin fused with the enemy’s battle aura with the physical impact that it, since the light-yellow mana covering her hand exploded on contact directly rupturing the flesh of the rook guy.

As in shock as David felt, he didn’t lose it and instead directly used the long-distance blinking ability of a rook to flash away from Loren, he actually shied away from close combat brawling against Loren.

While gasping for air and forcing battle aura into the wounds he just received to stop the bleeding and ease the pain, the rook guy suddenly felt a sensation of danger coming at him.

’Impossible, I’m too far away for her to affect me!’, he inwardly screamed, David actually forgot that he is fighting not only a mage but also… a bishop piece.

”Healing Field!”, David saw in horror how everything in the vicinity was covered in a light-yellow mana dome, before light yellow particles started to appear all over the place.

”Grhahhhh!”, the battle aura that was enveloping his body through the armor that fused with him, started releasing smoke on the spot, not only that but the ”patch” he put on his chest, also started burning his wound.

”Though I put a lot of effort in developing close combat abilities, I’m still a mage, so you can forget about getting away”, casually said Loren as she appeared not too far from the enemy.

”Indeed…”, said David who suddenly became calm, ignoring the fact that his body was releasing smoke, in fact he released a huge quantity of battle aura instead.

”Legion Reinforcement, Heavy Defense Armor!”, he actually used the boosting spell needed to fuse with his skin to enter this state, on top of said state, that’s something not even Ethan could do.

And it was for a good reason, the moment he did so, blood started to come out of his mouth and nose, his body was pushed to the limit, he was only able to do this because of he is a defense type knight and the extra defense of his rook piece trait.

”It’s either you or me anyway, so let’s decide this at once!”, roared David, the veins on his right arm bulged and then ruptured, he went as far as to use a martial art in this state.

”Battleground Brown Fist!!!”, by pouring till the last bit of battle aura he could gather, besides what he needed to that his body wouldn’t crumple apart on the spot, a giant rock fist manifested in front of Loren, practically out of nowhere.

This was the same martial art that left her in a really bad state earlier, one that forced her to even use Fountain of Life to heal herself.

In response to it, Loren pointed her right hand frontwards, since the enemy was using his ultimate move, she was going to answer in kind, by using the counterpart of ”Healing Field” which by the way is the exclusive high ranked healing spell from Loren’s family, used by those that specialize in wide area healing, which are the side of Loren’s maternal family

The other high ranked healing spell exclusive to Loren’s family is focused in single target healing and is used by her father side of the family, it’s called…

”Resurrection”, light yellow mana particles from all over the place gathered in front of Loren’s right palm which then closed, releasing a huge stream of light that engulfed both the incoming rock fist and the rook guy behind of it.

”Crack!”, first of all, the rock fist crumbled apart, before it crumbled apart into thin dust that was flown away by the explosion that came next.

”Booom!”, the battle aura armor and the skin of the rook guy itself, exploded, forcing blood to come out of practically every part of his body, and that was not all, the stream of light dragged David all the way to the ground where he was smacked, the moment the stream of light landed on the ground, a blinding flash that engulfed the whole battlefield was produced, but it only lasted for a second before the result of the previous was revealed.

Said result being that the rook guy’s body didn’t have a centimeter which wasn’t covered in blood, he was doomed, the only reason as to why he was alive is because he had a double armor protecting his head, earlier he focused all the battle aura he didn’t pour into his attack, to protect his head.

Loren couldn’t help but put on a tired expression, for a good reason, ”Healing Field” and ”Resurrection” are high ranked healing spells, which means that for their minimal effect to be used one has to be a peak Lord ranked mage.

The only reason as to why Loren could momentarily use the two of them, is because she has double light mana reserves now and also because of the enhanced energy reserve trait of her bishop piece, otherwise she could have only used one of the two.

And that is still amazing, she was already an anomaly being able to use Fountain of Life, the very moment she became a star ranked mage, but there had been a couple of cases of that in the history of her family.

However there has never been a case of a star ranked mage using neither Healing Field nor Resurrection.

That being said and as tired as Loren felt, after catching up her breath in a second, she flashed towards the rook guy to finish him off.

’Meina… I won for you’, but before Loren could reach him, David’s heart stopped beating, he died due to the wounds instead of being directly killed by Loren, unlike all the previous opponents, however at the end, his expression wasn’t that of a defeated enemy.

He wasn’t being delusional, a dark brown gem flew out of a compartment on his belt, to then crumble apart, which made Daimon frown behind his mask.

But that wasn’t all, high into the sky, the enemy queen suddenly appeared in front of Daimon and Jasmine to then crush a black gem with her right hand.

As a result, the barrier that covers the battlefield, which is invisible so that others can see the fights, turned black inked.

”No interferences this time”, said Erika just in time for a sky-shattering sound to come from behind of her.

”Boooom!”, a huge explosion caused the barrier to track on the spot however, it didn’t break down until the explosion ended a second later.

The enemy queen who was smiling from ear to ear, maniacally laughed as she turned to see Jasmine to rub the fact that her subordinate, a rare light affinity person was blasted into oblivion by an enemy that had already died, only to see the princess of the Light Palace… giggling?

”What are you laughing at you bitch, your subordinate was blown into smithereens!”, she exclaimed, only for Jasmine say.

”If you have such a horrible sight, you should use glasses”, naturally the enemy queen didn’t understand what the hell was she talking about, but everything became clear when she turned around to see at the inside of the barrier which had returned to be invisible.

There at the center of the explosion, which by the way made a huge dent into the ground, lied broken pieces of a ”corpse” but they were strangely releasing light yellow light from them.

At least for a couple of seconds, before they… turned into light particles.

”What!!!”, Erika roared, now imagine her expression when the announcement of victory echoed through the sky

[A rook has been removed from the game, congratulations to the White Queen, all the enemy pieces have been eliminated, the White Queen will be given the first move privilege]

”Why was it announced as a victory, both of our subordinates died, it should be a tie!”, yelled Erika to then abruptly turn to see the masked silver haired youth.

”You, what did you do this time!”, she exclaimed, only for Daimon to smirk as he said.

”I only fulfilled my role as the king piece, since you used that guy’s power to interfere with the fight, I simply used mine to interfere with you”.

Erika’s bad premonition became true when she looked at the resting area, where a black portal from which a perfectly fine Loren, came out.

”Phew, I was worried about becoming a ”widower” for a second there”, jokingly said Calvin as he approached Loren to hug her, only for the light brown-haired girl to say.

”Why, were you going to start looking for another girl?”, Calvin nearly tripped midway, he cleared his throat to then hug Loren while saying.

”Never, this young master is the description of loyalty… but in my race’s traditions, the wife makes a list of ”allowed” possible partners, for certain situations”.

”Oh, I’ll have to ask grandpa Solomon and aunt Mireya about it once we go back then”, mumbled Loren, making Calvin immediately say.

”But of course such an archaic thing was abolished just in time for my generation, never mind that, look at that stupid woman’s face, her expression is priceless!”, he said in a hurry.
