The Blade

Panting, Merlin's eyes shifted to the side, seeing Arad standing in the tavern with Alcott. "ARAD! You're back!" She cried.

Nina walked out of her desk, "What did you find?"

"AH!... She looked at Kayden. What did you say?" Merlin looked at Kayden after realizing he must have said something important before she arrived.

Arad was the one to reply, "It works like an infection. We can't fight with open eyes or ears. We can't breathe it, and we need to use fire to burn them."

Kayden smiled, "So you were listening,"

Arad giggled. ^You stopped a dragon army, of course, I would listen.^

"Master, should we deal with them?" Agnar asked, and Arad stared at him, "You won't," He can't fight blindfolded or without breathing. He also had no fire attacks, making him useless.

"Rely on mana sense to fight. That would be hard while flinging fire spells," Merlin scratched her chin, "But it's doable."
