The Wiz
Chapter 40: Lost (2)

Upset, sad, and surprised. The three feelings that directly assaulted Camoline when she regained consciousness. Camoline woke up after falling asleep for almost a full day. The state of his body is really concerning, so the doctor gave him also sleeping pills so that the recovery process of his body is not disturbed at all. Camoline could only remember until one of the doctors held her left wrist. After that, he was unconscious. And when she woke up, Camoline found herself no longer in the same room as the previous one. He had been moved, to a special room like the first time he was unconscious after fighting Londer.

When she was able to gather all her consciousness, Camoline realized the presence of Barcus and Zelden. The two old men did not realize that they were conscious. They were still talking with serious faces. Even the look on Barcus's face was very different from usual. The gazes of the two people were so serious, as if there was indeed a very important and great thing that they had to finish immediately. Before long, Barcus turned to Camoline. The man's face was clearly shocked before finally talking to the Big Brother made Zelden also turn to him. Without waiting for long, the two men stood up and walked over to Camoline.

Barcus without making small talk directly explained the state of Camoline at that time. He recounted the doctor's words, and told what the old man knew about the state of the Opal stone in his body.

"One of the colors on the Opal stone disappeared and turned white" Barcus said. Camoline was silent. He doesn't know what to say for now. This incident that he had experienced was really never expected before. In fact, he just knew if this kind of thing could happen.

"How is it possible? Opal has unlimited power" Camoline said in a tone of disbelief. Barcus let out a long breath. He looked towards the brother. But unfortunately, Zelden could not help himself. Again, Barcus sighed. He stared at Camoline intently. There was doubt and guilt in both of his eyes.

"I don't understand either. This is something no one ever expected. Moreover, Opal stones do not come every year. He has just returned with your presence here" said Barcus.

Camoline threw away her face. It's still very hard to believe what happened. It's totally impossible. The Opal Stone would not be able to lose its power. This holy stone had unlimited power, one level was even able to surpass the abilities of the Gods. That's what his ancestors always told him.

"For a while, you'll stay here until your body is completely restored. Me and Barcus are gonna find out about something like this. Make sure, no one but the three of us knows it." Camoline turned back. This time he looked towards Zelden. Without saying anything, he immediately nodded in understanding.

"I understand" said Camoline.

Afterwards, Barcus only went back to checking the state of the Opal stone within his body. After feeling enough, the old man walked out with Zelden. They both didn't say much. Just ask Camoline to rest well so that the healing process of her body is not inhibited. Camoline can only obey. Right now, his body still felt extremely limp. It was very difficult for him to just get up and sit down. The effect of the loss of one of the powers in the Opal stone was quite terrifying for his body.

Camoline sighed slowly. He looked at the ceiling of the room with a blank look. Though, he was very hopeful with all the power in the Opal stone that was currently inside his body. In fact, with this holy stone he could avenge all his clan who had been massacred sadistically just because of a power. This Opal stone is the only hope for Camoline. He could do nothing if one day this stone completely lost its power.

"You're really conscious apparently. I thought that Barcus was just playing with me earlier" said a doctor. His words awakened Camoline from her daydream. Camoline's eyes instantly moved to stare at the doctor beside her. He did not hear the doctor come in.

"I'll check on you. This is really new to me. Luckily, you have more than one magic element. So your body's condition will improve soon." A frown on Camoline's forehead appears.

"What happens if I only have one power?" ask Camoline curiously. The frown on his forehead is quite deep. This question he hadn't thought about for a long time, but he became so curious about it. Camoline even began to think bad things about the condition of her body if she did not have Opal stone in her body.

"Critical times with a very thin degree of conscious success. Your entire body will experience shock when your magic power disappears, forcing your body to be unconscious for a long time. If you regain consciousness, you will change like a human being without a spirit. Terrible right?" Camoline nodded slowly. It was terrible, and Camoline only learned something like this. He thought being born without power was the worst thing. However, there seems to be something far more terrifying than that. Loss of magic elements in the body.

"Has there been a disciple who lost all his strength?" The doctor was writing down Camoline's latest condition on a piece of paper. He lifted his head and threw a smile.

"Yes. It was a long time ago, about 8 years ago. There was a disciple who lost his magic element without remaining" the doctor said. Camoline's eyes moved restlessly for a while.

"Then, what happened to him?"

"He was in a coma for the first 1 year.6 months, his body was fine. It is like being asleep for a long time. But in the next 6 months, the condition of his body deteriorated until he could not be saved. He died" the doctor explained. That's grisly. Even the student was unconscious. It was obvious that the magic element was essential to all the organs of the witches. The magic element inside one's body would help with every healing process. Whether it's for an internal wound or an external wound like a scratch. But if the magic elements within the body start to thin or even disappear, not only the healing ability will disappear. However the magic could hurt one's internal organs before it completely disappeared from the body.

The magic element will grip very tightly every organ in a person's body, including the heart. Grip vigorously to search for the remnants of magic in every stream of blood. Before it finally happened a small explosion after the magic element inside the body stayed a little and injured the body from within.

But isn't what happened to Camoline any different? The magic element he possessed was purely from the Opal stone within his body. It was not a magic element that had existed since he was born.
