Ariel's awakening...?

"Ariel, the reason you can't walk isn't because of fear..." Said Serena 

Hearing this, a confused look was formed on Ariel's face as she looked at Serena 

"It's because of the dark magic pressure coming out from that thing. You can feel it too, can't you?" Serena asked 

Ariel quietly nodded 

"I'm able to move freely in it because of my Sacred Treasure, and It doesn't seem to be affecting John either, but you don't have anything which can counter it. It's not like the normal mana pressure the teacher used on us in school, this is different." Said Serena 

Mana pressure a move which involved using one's magical power to put pressure on another individual. The teacher had used it against the students in the entrance exam and they were all knocked out. Mana pressure however was simple to counter, Just cover your body in a sturdy layer of mana to help handle the pressure.
