Entertain the patients

Job:

Entertaining patients. Children no less. It did not seem like a job suited for a powerful H class mage, let alone one who was not only the ace of his guild, but one of the ten wizard saints. However, the speed demon himself was here to do just that. He walked in through the doors and was immediately accosted by staff of the hospital.

"I'm sorry sir, but weapons are not allowed in the hospital." one of them said indicating Zack's sword. "I'm afraid we will have to ask you to leave." Zack sighed deeply. He hadn't wanted to reveal exactly who he was this early, but he had no choice. He pulled out a necklace that he was wearing, a necklace emblazone with the symbol of the Ten Wizard saints. The men blanched standing back and staring with eyes wide open. Zack returned the necklace to beneath his clothing.

"Hey there. I'm Zack Rose. I'm here to entertain the kids." he said introducing himself. The men looked at eachother unable to believe what they were hearing. "I can leave the sword here if you want, but...my job would be easier with it." The men shrugged. They couldn't see anything risky about allowing a wizard saint in with a weapon. It wasn't like he was going to kill or hurt anyone. He was one of the most respected and revered mages on the continent. It wasn't like he was going to go and kill the children.

"Go right ahead sir." the man said and then paused. "Err....Can I have your autograph Mr.Rose." Zack shrugged and grabbed a pen off the side before signing a piece of paper for the man. He was taken by one of the men to the room with the children.

"Hey there kids. I'm Zack Rose. Wizard saint, ace of blue pegasus, dragon slayer and all around speed demon." he said introducing himself to the kids. One of them coughed and pointed.

"Ha. How do we know you are who you say you are." he said. Zack pulled out his necklace and the boy just shook his head. "that could be fake for all we know. Let's see him 'magic' If you've got any which I doubt." Zack shrugged and leapt upwards. As he did so he flipped in the air and then altered the effect of gravity on himself so he fell to the ceiling rather than the floor to applause from most of the children. The skeptic on the other hand just shook his head again. "Meh I bet any mage could do that. Even a D rank."

Zack considered what spells he had to offer to prove his abilities to this man. Most of his spells could easily prove his strength, but almost all of them would also potentially wipe out the entire hospital. Perhaps just a flare of his magic power? No, that would likely cause too much of a panic. At least, at this stage. There had to be something he could do. He dropped down from the ceiling and pulled out his sword. It was time to demonstrate a physicaility that only the truly might possessed. He exhaled and began to slowly move into a training scenario. His movements were acrobatic, flowing, but at first quite slow. However, soon they rapidly built up until he was a blur. An aura of magic began to flow around him causing him to glow and causing many oohs and ahhs from those watching. The child who had not yet been impressed raised an eyebrow and yawned. It seemed like he was a true critic. One that was truly, almost impossibly hard to please. Zack suspected that he was likely the sickest child in the room and so had become cynical. He stopped suddenly in front of said child and raised his gloved hand to the boy sensing his physical and magical presence. To his surprise the child, younger than most mages he had heard of, had a magic presence of at least D rank. He would be a strong mage one day. His physical presence however caused Zack's smile to fade. This boy was truly ill. He wouldn't last much longer.

The problem was he was here to entertain the children. This child's cynicism due to his illness made that much more difficulty. Even more so then he would of thought. However, it was an almost understandable cynicism and one he couldn't criticise too much. He back flipped away from the child landing on one hand and spring boarded. Then in a blur of light he seemed to vanish appearing on the other side of the room before vanishing again to appear by the door on the roof. He then vanished once more to appear by the sick child. All of the rest of the children were clapping and cheering, but this one cynical child had only barely smirked at the entire effort. Zack sheathed his sword and then made a gesture with his hand and a black long sword appeared in his hand.

"It appears that I will have to show off a bit more in order to prove I am who I say I am." he said with a determined tone of voice. "This is the blade forged from the scales and fangs of the Golden Dragon from beyond the Skies of knowledge. Long name I know, but eh...Dragons are weird." He focused and activated the two spells of this blade causing it to be coated in an intense aura of heat and lightning. He swung the sword and the air itself seemed to boil and part from the intense heat. The sick boy stared with open eyes. It seemed that he wanted to see displays of power to impress him and thus remove his cynicism. He swung the sword about at high speeds and began to form patterns in the air. He had to be careful with it so as no to hit anything and damage it. The patterns he formed at first were the various guild emblems he knew and then he slowly advanced to more complex patterns. The children stared in awe their eyes wide. It seemed he had finally caught all their attentions.

"So my friend. Believe I am who I say I am now?" he asked out of curiosity as he finished one of the patterns by leaping and landing on the ceiling once more. The boy nodded vigorously causing Zack to smile. He made the sword vanish dispelling the spells entirely and dropped down landing laying down an inch above the boy's head staring him right in the eye. "Boo" The boy blanched and giggled a little. It seemed Zack had finally broken through the barrier and once again he had shown it could be done with speed and power, his two trademarks. He floated away from the child and rotated in the air till he was sitting cross legged upside down. The thoughtful look on his face caused many laughs from a lot of the children. Suddenly, he flipped up onto his feet and drew his sword. " Let me show you a technique I learned from the King of Celestial Spirits." He swung his sword in a powerful spin and channeled a large amount of magic power through the blade. "GALAXIA BLADE." he said and targeted the four sickest children in the room. They would receive a sense of power within them and feel their bodies healing. "I'm sorry I couldn't effect all of you at once, but that technique has limited targets. Guess i'll make you smile whilst we wait

He continued to entertain them with movements whilst he waited for his spell to be usable again. When it was he used the spell again targeting more of the children. This was repeated till all of them had the healing effect. They hadn't noticed it yet as most of their illnesses were internal and on top of that they had a large strength and speed boost which was overwhelming their sense of judgement when it came to their bodies. Several of them began to run about thinking they had been given a temporary respite from their illness whereas in reality they would soon be fully healed, even the illest child. He smiled and bid them farewell before leaving.

"Check on them in a few hours. They think i've just granted them respite, but i've used some of magic to cure their illness...a sick child is a sad sad sight." he said with a smile causing the doctor's eyes to widen in surprise. "Hey if I have the power why not heal them with it right?" The man handed him a small amount of jewels, but Zack shook his head. "Keep it and donate it to those who need it. My payment was their smiles and laughter. No greater reward"

With those words he turned and left the hospital. It wasn't long before he was in the air and flying at top speed back to Blue Pegasus. He had done a good deed and tested some of his new spells. It was a good day over all. He'd have to go on more D-rank class missions. They didn't test him that much, but they made him feel good inside. It was nice to help people.
