Versatile: Alternate World

With the bishop dead, the flame arena of Lucia slowly opened up, allowing everyone, including myself who are inside the hellish place she created. Even though we are immune to the fire she created due to her restrictions on it, it doesn't mean we are immune to the heat of the flames.

I doused everyone with some cool water from my magic to freshen up. Even Lucia wanted to get some wash as well.

"Ugh...if not for the situation, I wouldn't even use that spell regularly. The heat is just too much even for me."

"You also felt the flames are hot, Lucia-sama? I thought you don't feel it much since you control it," Atlas asked, surprised that Lucia also felt the same.

"Hey, even though I am the one who cast the spell doesn't mean I am immune to the heat of the flames. It's the only aspect of my ability that I cannot alter for us which is why I am not gonna bother using it if it doesn't give me much usefulness anyway. It's only good for battles that have enemies constantly trying to escape."

When we returned, I saw everyone seemed to be a little bit stunned by what is happening. The undead angels that were revived before are nowhere to be seen, which means they have permanently died and are no longer a problem.

Harmless Sparrow was the first to spot me as she was resting at the side of the road while the others are assessing the damages that happened while I was busy fighting the Bishop.

"Oh, finally. You are back. So what happened? Did you defeat that old man?"

"He is dead. He couldn't handle the power he is using and paid the ultimate price. What happened when I was inside the Flame dome?"

"Nothing much except that we fought the undead for quite a while. The battle ended shortly after the Tactician appeared. Alain fought with him and they were dragged somewhere else since a portal opened up Alain throw the Tactician inside before he jumped in himself. He has yet to come out as of now so we don't have any updates regarding Alain."

"What about the others?"

"Everyone is fine. They have wounds and some stuff on their bodies but thankfully, nothing fatal. Sigma healed most of them so there is no problem at all. And thanks to the help of Kailan and the others, the battle was smoother than expected. Our only option left to go is to storm inside the church and confront the pope. After all, nobody returned and faced us anymore which is great. We can choose to wait for Alain to return or we storm inside the church before a backup arrives? It's your call since Alain is not here, you will be the one who will automatically become the de facto leader until Alain returns."

"Then gather up everyone. With only Sigma healing them, it will take some time to do so. We will be heading straight to the Church as soon as possible. The more we wait, the more the Pope accumulates his power. We can't afford him to rack up more power than he already has."

Harmless Sparrow nodded and immediately calls everyone to gather up in front of me. I pull out one of the Healing Scrolls I have. I have had this sitting for quite a while since I didn't get to use them during the battle that occurred in the Frozen Region and the supposed raid of Aquagius Continent didn't happen so in the end, it was left behind without any actual purpose but now, I will be able to use it as this is more beneficial to a group of people in one healing cast.

I let everyone gather around. Even Sigma and the others as well even though they didn't have any injuries or it was already healed up. It's because it's not just a skill that heals, it's also a skill that buffs players that receive the heal.

-----------------------

[Holy Salvation](Scroll Ver.)

Type: Scroll

Info: Heals all the injuries, removes debuffs and special conditions and regains the mana lost to the fullest. Everyone who received the healing will receive the following buffs as well:

-Sharpness IV

-Indomitable IV

-Athlete IV

-Mana Surge IV

-Fountain of Life IV

-Blessings of the Light

-Penetration IV

Just like the skill, this scroll can only be used once a day.

-----------------------------

This is a skill of the Cleric's Branch Class, Savior, the class that gets rid of the fighting capability of the Cleric and focuses more on healing and buffing the team. A very vital class especially in raids and dungeon raids due to the healing power the class can dish out. Not only that but the buff they cast is quite strong too and self-buffing and consuming items that buffs them are no longer necessary with the Savior class alone.

I obviously wanted this skill as well but when I checked it after advancing my class, the SP it needed is 10,000 Cleric Points. It's pretty expensive and for a player like me who only heals a few players and myself for a short while and is not so focused on it, getting more SP is going to be a grind as well so it would take me some time if I want to get it but the other healing spells from other branches are much more necessary and much more inexpensive so I didn't bother farming the amount of SP needed to unlock it when I can just go ahead and craft it with my scroll.

With everyone already there, ready to receive the skill, I rolled out the scroll before tearing it into two, casting the skill to everyone.

"What the...our mana has been refilled?" the soldiers were stunned, after all, there is no skill that can heal mana like this without a fair exchange like exchanging their health for mana.

"There are also some buffs as well. Holy sh*t... this is something else! How come Bladeheart is using that scroll at us? Isn't that pretty valuable? Why waste it just like that?" Viola was confused as she has indeed known the value of scrolls and seeing the power of the scroll that I used, she was stunned why I used it instead of selling it.

"Just for your information, Bladeheart is the one making those scrolls so for him, so picking out one scroll and using it means nothing to him. He can craft it as much as he wants if he wanted to. So this is understandable that he wouldn't have any problem wasting a scroll just like that," Harmless Sparrow whispered to Viola but loud enough for the others to hear it.

Although I didn't tell her to advertise my scroll like that, I didn't expect her to do that on her own accord which is going to be beneficial for me as that would mean I can expect customers to buy my scrolls just fine without the need of using money to advertise myself. I can already see Viola as my first customer and the others seem to be interested as well.

Now that everyone is fully healed, buffed, and had their mana refilled, it's time to tackle the Pope. And to be honest, I am a little bit nervous. Even in the past timeline, I don't have any idea who this pope is and how strong he was since the showdown between the rebels and the pope didn't happen. But look at the situation now.

We are on the winning side, our side is still going strong. We have already defeated the bishop and yet we are still good to go. I have yet to even call the dragon for help since it was unnecessary to ask for help if we can just handle it and our strategy is also the most peaceful one as well.

"Alright. Now that everyone is good and eager to go, we shall now commence the battle to face the pope. We will not be able to back down from this and the conclusion will be happening next as well. We just needed to win to avoid this quest from dragging on for too long. The battle ahead will be dangerous and arduous but we will survive. The pope is not something we need to just defeat but also to remove his power in this continent! So, let's go and take down the pope and take the rewards!"

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Everyone made the war cry and with my lead, we stormed inside the church. The door was locked so we forced it open by kicking it with our feet. It took a few tries with me and the others kicking it before the door was opened and what waited for us there was something that even the players who regularly visit the church from before recognized.

"What the... why is it so gross?" Harmless Sparrow frowned and covers her mouth to avoid barfing.

I frowned at the situation. As the church interior no longer looked like that of a normal church but a place where evil breeds, similar to the one that the cult made before the quest to choose between the rebels and the non-rebels.
