"I have something to show you," Danass suddenly said, stretching out his hand and snapping his fingers.
With that snap, a figure stepped out of the shadow behind him.
The figure was small, almost childlike at first glance, but wrapped in a black robe, making the features indiscernible.
Yet, Shane felt a familiar magic power emanating from the small figure, causing his expression to vanish for the first time.
Not only Shane, but Oz and Mafi seemed to sense something too.
"That... could it be...!?"
"How could it be..."
Oz and Mafi one widened their eyes, while the other was rendered speechless.
"It seems you've noticed," Danass said with a smirking smile, "This is my latest masterpiece. To create it, I exhausted everything I had accumulated over the decades."
Implied in his words was the fact that this magic life was a recent creation by Danass.
Besides consuming decades worth of Danass's precious materials, it also involved another ingredient.
