Ethereal Ascendance: A Journey of Transformation(1-3VOL)

Vol 3/Chapter 25: The Welcome Banquet

"What are you doing? Acting like a rooster spreading its tail?"

Nicola's words were venomous without any mercy.

"My main wife, are you jealous? Dare to try attacking me?"

Cyra retorted without losing any momentum.

"Humph, you think I don't dare?"

Nicola was provoked by her words. She rolled up her sleeves, spread her claws, and wanted to rush forward to pull out feathers.

"Wait wait wait!"

Seeing this, Cyra immediately lost her coolness and retreated two to three steps in fear, raising her hands repeatedly to stop Nicola.

"We agreed this would be a magical attack, not a physical attack! Pulling out feathers would be an illegal act!"

"Is that so?"

Nicola frowned and turned to ask Aetna. It was clear she was very disappointed to not be able to pull out feathers.

"Yes, we are currently discussing magical defences. Physical defences cannot be done."

Aetna nodded in confirmation, then praised Cyra:

"You did well, you can stop now."

"That's it already? But I didn't see anything happen at all. Was there any difference?"

Seeing this, Nicola asked in puzzlement.

"I think I saw a little bit..."

When they were talking just now, I had purposely walked closer to observe. I discovered that the outer edges of Cyra's wings seemed to give off a layer of white light. But since the wings themselves were white, it was not very noticeable.

"What Feliciana said is right. That layer of white light is the light element. It can have the same immune effect as the body."

Hearing what I saw, Aetna nodded approvingly to answer.

When Nicola heard this, she threatened and coerced Cyra to demonstrate it one more time before she could finally see it.

"We angels can easily control the light element in our bodies. So as long as we release the light element along the wings, we can achieve this effect. But to be effective in defence, we must maintain above a certain concentration of light elements. Additionally, the light element released externally will dissipate by itself. In other words, this is an extremely light element-consuming skill. However, as long as you reach four wings and above, you can completely achieve a positive cycle. So strictly speaking, this does not belong to the category of magic, it can only be considered a special ability we angels have."

What followed was the teacher's detailed explanation. The theory was quite simple, but it was still somewhat difficult to put into practice.

After the theory, naturally, it entered the favourite practice session. This time, Cyra could finally practice together with us. Naturally, this gave her plenty of opportunities to show off. Along the way, there was inevitably all kinds of ridicule and dissent from me and Nicola.

...

"I'm going to see Reed."

Time passed quickly. After today's lessons were over, Nicola bid me goodbye, then spread her wings and flew up into the sky.

Seeing that she was finally fulfilling her promise, I also breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, with Reed's unsociable personality, if this continued, it was very likely things could turn ugly.
