But Lain, and the other two beside him were not fooled by this, because from their instincts, the trio could tell that hidden within the harmless looking blue flames that surrounded them, was heat that was mind bogglingly terrifying.
Seeing the blue flames all over her body, Annette's first reaction was to try to put it out, due to her instinctual fear that the heat she perceived within the flames could incinerate her to ashes within seconds. But before she could move, the flames that covered the entire room, as well as the two holographic screens, all converged at the center of the room within the blink of an eye.
Within a span of seconds, the flames that left the body of the trio, quickly took on the figure of a human, before receding inside that figure rapidly. After a couple milliseconds, human features started to appear within the flaming figure.
Looking at the flaming figure that was quickly turning into a human, Lain couldn't help but say cautiously. "Brother Mon Dupa, is that you?" It seems he had somehow recognized the figure within the blue flames.
"It truly is the voice of brother Mon Dupa." Hui Shi, added. The slight worry in his heart vanished at Lain's words.
Standing by the side, the shocked Annette could only listen to their conversation, hoping the flaming figure in front of them was truly a friend and not a terrifying foe.
"Hello again, brothers! I'm sorry for my interruption." The flaming figure stated, as the flames completely disappeared within its body, and the handsome figure of Mon Dupa appeared.
Mon Dupa then took a step forward, towards the trio standing in front of the sofa and said to them. "I was worried earlier that something must've happened to the two of you, when I sensed your presence vanish through a teleportation of sorts, so I decided to track you guys down, hoping the Fang Clan member from earlier wasn't involved in your teleportation."
"How'd you know where to find us?" Lain asked in bewilderment. After asking his question, he soon noticed a slightly sticky feeling all over his body.
Noticing this feeling, he quickly glanced around his body and the bodies of the other two beside him, only to notice a film-like, sticky residue that felt like candle wax covering their bodies.
He first looked at Annette, whose body now looked like a wax figurine, with eyes and hairs that were wax-like in appearance, he then looked at Hui Shi in shock, as his body which was now emitting the familiar golden glow again, was also covered in wax, as if the wax covering his body and eyes, was an illusion. It seemed to Lain that the wax didn't affect his god's divine powers, like the blue flames from earlier did.
