Special Leave (4)

Green was an adventurer I met before I joined the Knights.

Though “Green” was an alias, he surely had another real name...

As I thought that, I fondly recalled the first time I met Green and his brothers.

―――More than half a year ago, during the Coming-of-Age Ceremony, I was attacked by the black dragon Zabiria and nearly died. That was when I regained the memories of my previous life.

In my previous life, I was the Great Saint, but in this life, the saint tests I took at ages three and ten determined that I had no healing magic whatsoever.

Although I had the Great Saint’s memories, I wondered just how much of my former power I could use. So, during the three months before taking the Knights’ exam, I tried out various healing spells on myself.

But I realized it was difficult to check whether I could heal injuries or status ailments without test subjects. Then I hit on the idea of adventuring with people who seemed likely to get hurt, so I could try using healing magic.

The ones who appeared before me were Green and his two brothers.

When the three brothers introduced themselves, they gave aliases based on their hair colors: the eldest was “Red,” the second was “Green,” and the youngest was “Blue.”

When I first met them, Red and Green were extremely suspicious, with blood running down their faces, so it made sense that they’d used aliases to be cautious...
