Milano's words cut off. The air stiffened. The room quaked. The buildings shook. Jessica screamed in pain as she felt like tiny needles were cutting into her body. Eric stiffened himself, a pained groan escaping his lips as he sucked in his teeth.
"They're using it! They're using it right now!" Jessica moaned. She attempted to reign herself in, but the pain was unbearable. It felt like her body was ripping itself apart.
"Stop circulating mana." Eric commanded, walking over to the girl. "Remember what I said, Mana is not the only tool you have." Jessica did so, finally letting her mana go as she finally relaxed.
Milano looked out at the mountain, and his eyes widened. For the first time since seeing an entire corps heading towards them, he couldn't imagine the scene he was looking at.
The entire mountain range was on fire.
