It was Luoice.
He stood there with a sword in his hand, its blade faintly glowing. The air around it felt heavy, as if the world itself was holding its breath.
Dion waved at Panther. "You're awake!"
Everyone gathered around. Luoice grinned. "I'm a hero now. I got blessed. The world got a mighty hero. He laughed
Dion leaned closer. "That sword looks amazing."
Panther's eyes stayed on the blade. "It's emitting mana."
"Mana? What mana?" Dion frowned. "I don't see anything. Just a normal sword."
He glanced at the fallen tree. "Maybe… just a little abnormal."
Luoice's eyes lit up as he looked at Panther and Eve. "So… you guys can see mana too? That means you're blessed as well, right?"
"Yes," Panther said.
Eve nodded silently.
Louice laughed with excitement. "Then can you see this screen in front of me? Dion can't see it. Maybe you guys can."
Panther shook his head. "No. We don't see anything."
"Same," Eve said quietly.
"I've been saying this for hours," Dion muttered.
Louice's eyes sparkled. "So you guys cant see this! It's saying me to do so many things, and in return I will grow stronger. Also, this system gave me this sword."
"Cool," Panther said.
Luoice swiped the air amd said The name is even cooler "Dragon Slayer Sword."what a mighty name
Eve's face went pale.
"I am going to kill dragons and whoever dares to destroy our land," Louice said firmly, his eyes shining with a great determination.
Panther looked at his hands, then at the faint glow of mana around him. "I… I don't know what powers I have," he said slowly. "I can just see mana… and I realized when i wake up I'm blessed too."
Louice smiled warmly. "Did your mom know about it?"
"Yeah. She was happy when she heard about me" Panther replied.
"And yours, louice?" eve asked gently.
"They were... happy too," louice said quietly.
Louice turned to both of them with a grin.
"So… can we see what power you are blessed with?"
Eve stepped forward, hands raised.
"Fireball," she commanded.
A bright flame ignited in her palm instantly, spinning and growing hotter with every passing second. Without hesitation, she thrust her hand forward.
The fireball shot out like a blazing comet, striking a nearby rock with a thunderous *boom*. Sparks flew in all directions, and a small shockwave rattled the leaves around them.
"Whoa…" Dion whispered, eyes wide.
Panther exhaled and stepped forward, his gaze following the flickering embers.
He raised his hands, and the air around him began to stir. At first, it was a gentle breeze, but within moments, the wind twisted violently, forming sharp gusts that rattled the leaves and whipped through the branches above.
The clouds darkened overhead as raw mana erupted from him, swirling like a storm. Dust and small debris lifted into the air, caught in the vortex of his power. The sound of rushing wind grew louder, echoing like a distant roar, shaking the ground beneath their feet.
Everyone watched in awe.
Eve lowered her gaze slightly, not from fear, but from the sheer magnitude of his mana.
*What a powerful mana… in this age,she thought.
