Arden celebration wasn't for long. As his gaze flickered to the system interface shimmering before him.
[New Life Signature Gained
Name: Lotusfang Aegis (Growth type)
Effect:
The user can manifest a crimson-golden barrier of energy resembling lotus petals that blooms outward upon activation. The barrier briefly absorbs or reflects incoming elemental attacks, converting part of the energy into fuel for Arden's own pool. Every third activation allows Arden to lash out with spectral lotus petals, biting back at attackers. Stronger when defending allies inside its radius, the barrier adapts to incoming threats, harmonizing with Arden's group's elemental affinities
Growth Path:
Stage II – Blooming Aegis: Expands into a dome that shields allies, with stronger absorption and partial reflection. Restores Arden's stamina or essence.
