"That's what it feels like to use mana, master. Whatever this darkness is, it's like every centimeter is made of pure, infinite energy. It's amazing~" Erit announced in a giddy tone.
"Another thing Tylin failed to inform me of..." As Aerwyn grumbled about Tylin, the bubble-like tendrils snapped along the soul stings causing Aerwyn to release a pained gasp.
"Are you ok, master?" Rin asked with a concerned voice.
"You guys didn't feel that?" Aerwyn asked as the bubble-like tendrils receded, leaving all four souls looking much like his only far smaller.
"...Feel what?"
"Ugh, why is it that I'm the only one that suffers?" Aerwyn groaned in frustration.
"A true ruler bears the sadness and joy of their subjects, master." Erit haughtily proclaimed.
"If you knew how it felt, you wouldn't be spouting such nonsense, miss 'i want everything'."
