A New Character?

A bright reddish glow appeared on one side of the wall, and a vine-like hand quickly shot out and grabbed onto Juin's abdomen, pulling him into the wall before disappearing as quickly. 

At the same time, the walls of boiling magma shot up again, covering Luca and Wolfe's sight. When everything finally settled down, they glanced at each other. 

"He succeeded, right?" Wolfe asked in uncertainty. He looked into the now calmed boiling pool of magma. There was no sign of Juin anywhere… unless, of course, he had completed melted and was now part of the red pool. "The walls mean that a spell has been activated, right?"

Luca hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Should be."

They then exchanged another glance before gesturing and saying, "You first!" 

"Come on, Luca, you are the team leader, so you should take the lead," Wolfe said with a feigned smile.
