'If I am the true bearer, Seojun will not get hurt. If I can protect him, his burden will be lighter. This will help my son.'
Her mana flowed deeper into the blade. The flames twisted and changed, shrinking into a small whirling air, like a tiny tornado spinning in her palm. The air around them shook. A massive shock wave began to form, pressing outward, ready to explode.
Before it could burst, Grimzark appeared in front of Seoyang.

"Are you hurt?" Ssivar added as he rushed closer.
