"Whoosh."

Merlin's figure appeared once more in the main foyer of Ozmu Headquarters.

"I'm finally back!"

Merlin finally felt the familiar force once more. Before he could take a good look at his surroundings, frightening Elemental fluctuations suddenly exploded. For an instant, the power of runes and spells filled the air, thundering toward Merlin.

Faced with this attack that was on par with a preeminent Great Wizard, practically right behind Kleis' power, Merlin simply appeared incomparably calm. He stood his ground silently, a spell armor emerging around him.

"Boom."

A deafening crash shook the entire foyer, and thick smoke and dust immediately submerged Merlin.

"This bit of power is lacking too much…"

A calm voice could be heard. From the smoke and dust, Merlin's figure appeared once again, still completely unharmed.
