The moment Lana revealed her yellow-ranked mystical energy... glowing like condensed sunlight swirling around her fingertips, the room fell into a suffocating silence.
Axel's eyes widened before he abruptly lowered his gaze, almost as if he were afraid his expression would give away too much excitement.
