'Is this really Lucien?'
While Lucien left with Garrick, he didn't realize that, aside from him and Sera, there was someone else who had witnessed everything that happened here.
'Why has he changed so much? And… how can he use so many abilities?'
Perched atop a tall building under the cover of night, completely without presence, Velmara observed Lucien with its large blue eyes, deep in thought.
As it followed Lucien with its gaze, its head turned a full 270 degrees, yet the confusion and astonishment never left those glowing eyes.
'It seems Malcolm finally found a good heir. But did he know it?'
Velmara doubted that was the case. Lucien's abilities were far too unusual.
When he was engulfed by Sera's phoenix fire, Velmara was already ready to save him. But to his surprise, Lucien didn't resist the flames; instead, he absorbed them like they were nothing.
Not to mention the series of abilities he used right after.
Even for someone like Velmara, that was eye-opening.
