Ike's POV

"Okay. . . I think I'm ready," I declared to the others after relaxing my entire body and activating my weirdness. My lightning markings glowed brightly as my friends dashed towards me all at once. Behind me, emerging from the trees like gooey monsters, were hundreds of Wooden Mannequins created by Marcus. The two groups ran towards each other with me standing right in the middle.

"You can do it, hubby! Woo-hoo!" RB shouted from the sidelines.

Faye, Jethro, Thalia, Philip, and Cezka ran past me, all of them ready to strike at the advancing enemies. I raised my hands towards the direction of Faye and Jethro, causing green flames to erupt all over their body. Faye's white hair glowed brightly just as Jethro's red fire turned blue. The former shot several beams of light towards the mannequins while the latter sent jets of blue fire, instantly vaporizing their opponents.

"You sure about this thing that you signed up for?" I heard RB ask Jelal. "There's very little room for misbehavior with Faye. One wrong move and the last thing that you will see is the light. . . literally."

I pointed my hands next at Thalia and Cezka. Giant wiggling roots sprouted all over the ground courtesy of the former, wrapping around the mannequins and dragging them into the earth. The latter was fighting the mannequins hand-to-hand, sending powerful gusts of wind against them that shattered their wooden bodies. Some of them tried to attack her, but Cezka dispersed into smoke before reappearing behind the mannequins and shattering them from behind.

Philip jumped into the air followed by the remaining wooden mannequins. As green flames engulfed his body, he suddenly morphed into an enormous fiery dragon with flaming wings. One scorching blast from Philip's dragon form and the mannequins chasing him were carbonized in a second.

"That's enough, guys," Professor Sivera shouted. "Good job. Rest for a while."

I closed my eyes and relaxed myself, causing my green glow and flames to fade away.

"Ah. . . I also want my hubby to impregnate me with his warm, power-enhancing abilities," RB said as he joined me on the field.

"Shut up."

It's mid-morning and we're currently having combat practices in one of the Purgers' training grounds in the forest. Ezekiel told me just last night to refine my ability of enhancing other people's weirdnesses. It turns out that it's particularly easy to do. All I have to do is activate my Prime state and redirect my energy to the person whose weirdness I want to enhance.

I also tried enhancing Jelal's weirdness earlier, but as expected, the dark nature of his weirdness isn't compatible with the Prime Elemental. I couldn't even enhance RB's Crystal Weirdness. Cataleya said that the strong presence of Dark Magic inside him might be barring me from manipulating his power. After all, RB is basically an Elemental Weirdo, and he of all people should be affected by my power-enhacing abilities.
