Chapter 58: Hiasobi (Fire Play)
Chapter 58: Hiasobi (Fire Play)
The levitating fire shifted its position from top of Xin's head to top of Natasha's forehead. What Xin was trying to do was relatively simple. Due to the magical properties of the Chiseki Pollens, they get attracted to warmer places. Xin was trying to pull all the pollen out of her body by keeping a magiculus fire near Natasha.
As predicted, the fire pulled out the pollen and burned them down to ashes. Now that his experiment was successful, it was other's turn to get treated. Without any delay, Xin rushed into the kitchen and brought three toilet paper rolls out of somewhere.
This time he didn't wrap his hand with papers. Instead, he put them on the ground and let them catch fire from the magiculus fire that he had prepared before.
The same phenomenon happened again, and the fire changed its color to violet. In Natasha's case, it was only a single person, so he didn't face any problem while treating her.
But now, he had to treat more than twenty patients present in the restaurant. Curing them one by one would have consumed a lot of time for Xin. He was pondering what to do and how to cure them all at the same time. Out of nowhere, another weird idea came to his mind.
Alchemy was the answer that he wanted to use in his current situation. Generally, alchemy involves refining plants, minerals, and other substances into medicinal pills and elixirs. And to refine these pills, alchemists use pill furnaces and cauldrons, a unique pot that runs on high-grade magiculus fire.
And to control those high-grade magiculus fires, there exists a set of skills called Hiasobi (Fire Play) techniques.
Xin was planning to use Hiasobi to control the fire and mobilize it around the restaurant. The concept was very simple. In pill refining, they do it with a cauldron here. Xin was trying to do without one.
Xin sat cross-legged before the fire and started to chant something before it. Very few people were conscious at that time, as for the rest, they fainted due to excessive blood loss.
What they were witnessing there was something beyond their imagination. The fire before them was changing its shape and slowly transforming into a bird. The owner of the restro was the first person who recognized it at first glance and shouted at the top of his lungs, "It's a phoenix, a violet phoenix!!"
Xin smirked at the owner of the restro and continued to do what he was doing before. By chanting the special spell, he was temporarily injecting a part of his inside the violet fire.
The logic was very simple, mages can control their soul according to their will. If they want, they can leave their bodies, and if they wish, they can re-enter their bodies. By injecting a small part of his soul inside the fire, Xin was aiming to control the fire at his will.
One thing that took him by surprise was the shape of the fire. Magiculus fire is a special type of fire that uses magiculus particles in the air as its fuel source. During the process of soul injection, it takes the soul's shape and shows the injector's spirit beast.
Dragons, Pegasus, Basilisk, Manticore, Cerberus, etc., were considered legendary spirit beasts in the world of magic. In his previous life, Xin had a Bahamut Dragon as his spirit beast, which can destroy the enemy forces just by his single glance.
Though violent, it was his only companion who has never betrayed him in his life. When Xin thought of Hiasobi, he low-key wanted to see his spirit beast before its awakening, but his wishes were completely shattered when a phoenix spirit appeared out of nowhere.
"Never mind, I will look into this matter at a different time," Xin whispered and started the first play of the Hiasobi. The first play's name was Eiyo o atareu, which literally means nourishing the magiculus fire.
Xin closed his eyes and started to emit a special light from his forehead. This light was his mental energy, materializing in the real world by interfering with the lines of illusion and reality, making its way to the magiculus fire. The phoenix before his eyes received his energy and majestically opened its wings.
Kyuuuuuuun!!
A loud screech echoed in the restro. Everyone was startled by this voice. Xin didn't bother to explain them about the phoenix and instead continued onto the play's second phase.
The second process of the Hiasobi (fire play) was named Kaiho, which literally means release the spirit beast formed through the magiculus fire.
This time Xin focused all his attention on the phoenix and tried to form a mental connection with it. Though the phoenix was a part of his soul, it became a completely different entity after entering into the magiculus fire.
Xin was just getting started when a system notification appeared before his eyes.
[New Info]
{The Purple Phoenix is a part of the system, and the system is connected to the host cum master, Xin.

[Skip/Deny]
Since he was in a hurry, he didn't give it much thought and clicked on the skip button. Suddenly he felt a jolt in his spine. It was a feeling that now he and his magiculus formed spirit beast have synced their senses into one.
The majority of the hard work was over now. All he had to do was to mobilize the fire around him and cure all the patients nearby. Xin slowly stood up and had a look at the patients nearby. Around forty-two victims were there, including the shop owner and his three waiters. Xin didn't make any delay and commanded the fire to cure everyone.
"O' the fire of my inner beast. Heed my command and save the life of these many."
The fire on the ground reached as high as the ceiling. It split into many parts as commanded by its user and started to do its work. Each and every fire was doing the same task, going near the forehead, suck in the pollens, and burn them into ashes.
Just within a fraction of a minute, all the customers were brought back into their senses. Natasha was the first one to gain her sense, and she was also the first one to see the miracle happening before her eyes.
A weird colored fire was sucking something from everyone's forehead, and Xin seemed to be the one controlling them. Before she called out Xin's name, someone approached behind her and put his hand on her mouth to stop her from talking.
