James beamed broadly at her. “Hi, Thea.”
Everyone was looking at James with cold, unfriendly gazes.
“Regardless of whether he is impersonating James or not, we can probably use his help.” Xrival suggested another approach to their current situation, “He’s the Orstellen Sectʼs saint. He should know a thing or two about the Orstellen Realm. He’ll come in handy at some point.”
James quickly said, “I donʼt know much about the Orstellen Realm! They only appointed me as the saint because I was resurrected through the Koloretsua Stone. I probably won’t be of any help, but I am the real James!”
Thea merely rolled her eyes upon hearing his words.
James directed his gaze in Zellaʼs direction. Then, he asked smilingly, “Zella, do you have any clues as to what we can do now?”
Zella shook her head. “I lost my ability as a prophet a long time ago. I canʼt see what will happen in the future now.”
“I might be able to help you recover your powers,” James replied.
“Can you do that?” Zella could not help getting hopeful after hearing that.
“I’ll give it a try.”
James was not entirely sure if he could fix or restore Zellaʼs powers.
“Back then, you sacrificed your powers as a prophet to unlock my potential. You gave me the help that I needed. Now that I’ve gained enough power, I should help restore yours,” James explained calmly.
The others standing around them did not think much of James’ words as they still saw him as Saint Zuriel.
“The Endlos Light…” Thea exclaimed in surprise.
Meanwhile, James continued to channel his powers for quite some time. Ten minutes later, he finally lowered his hand.
James looked at Zella and asked, “How do you feel right now?”
Zella slowly opened her eyes. There was an ethereal aura about her. She smiled sweetly and answered, “I regained my powers. Thank you, James.”
Although none of their friends or family accepted James’ explanation, Zella still felt that the man before her was the real James.
James felt a huge sense of relief upon hearing her words. Then, he asked, “You should use your prophetic powers to check and find out what we should do to become the winner of the Orstellen Realmʼs test.”
