My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem-Chapter 1559
There was once a time when White Mages were common. During the war against the Fae, the White Mage had become the bane of their existence. The Fae couldn’t be resurrected, and so they were slowly wiped out while the invaders seemed to be able to reincarnate. It had to feel a bit like a zombie invasion, or so I imagined. To turn the tides, Fae managed to somehow wipe out the White Mage lore, making it increasingly difficult for new White mages to be created. Had I not chosen it as my job before coming to this world, that lore might have been lost forever.
Without the ability to resurrect, there was a standstill between the Fae and the humans. The standstill was brought to an end when humans began to depend on faith. With Faith, they could create priests, and priests were able to lean resurrection at a far lower level than what was required for a white mage. The result was that the fae was eventually thrown from the land, where they ended up on another continent on the other side of the planet.

White Mages and Priests have as many similarities as they have differences. Priests had mastery over the soul. They could heal just about anything, but healing was a relatively slow process for them, sometimes taking days to repair the significant damage. One could see their healing like increasing regen up extremely high and then promoting proper healing. They could also protect against ghosts and other spirits.
White Mage was more of a combat class. Other than being super-effective against the undead, they also had defensive spells that could create shields and block physical damage. They also could cause almost instantaneous healing, which usually came at the expense of the soul. That last part I hadn’t known about until fairly recently. Priest healing was slower, but it healed the body and soul, while White Mage healed the body extremely quickly, but damage to the soul would accumulate over time and potentially cause issues. Why did we never experience issues? That was because we were all also drinking the waters of life, which continually healed and renewed our souls.
As for where I learned all of this information, it was seemingly absorbed from King Roth’s dungeon. He didn’t have a ton of information, but there were enough fragments of lore that I was able to take what I already knew and piece together what sounded about right based on my own experiences. There was still a lot of information to digest. Most of it was about the inner workings of Dioshin. If the animalkin knew how much I knew about their country and its secrets, they’d likely be sweating right about now.
What all of that meant was that while Priests could block magic attacks and ghosts, they were unable to block physical damage, so the enemy pirates were using a woman Eliana didn’t even know existed. Other than Bernice’s gun, I also hadn’t known that black powder had been discovered in this world. Did this technology come from the Imperial Cloud Meadow? I had heard they considered our country undeveloped savages, but if it was because they were already in the Industrial age while were stuck in the middle ages, I’d understand.
The ship fired again, but this time I used the skill shield and erected a barrier. The ball struck the barrier and fell back to the ground. Now, it was my turn to attack.
