Rhian kept watching her.
He hadn't said a word, but in his mind, what he was seeing didn't make any sense. None of it did.
Not when it came to Nia.
Yes, she looked stronger, faster, sharper. Her movements were precise, with a different kind of weight to them. But that wasn't the part that disturbed him.
She was extracting lightning from her body.
That was impossible.
Nia wasn't a Mystical. She was a Physical-type carrier. She couldn't manipulate energy outside of her body her whole combat style was about internal circulation, pushing her muscles, reflexes, and durability past normal limits. That was her domain.
But now? She wasn't just radiating golden sparks. She was using them. Her feet cracked the ground when she launched forward.
Her hands left arcs of light in the air. Her body moved like a live wire, like the lightning was a part of her.
And yet, she wasn't showing signs of activating her ability. Normally, when she used Static Armor, it drained her fast.
