Adrian was amazed by how Soleil used her skills as she seemed like how the Daemos use Origin Magic which only used at most one or two word chant. She might have gained a skill to invalidate long chanting which normal mages tend to do. The Daemos only needed to say the name of the spell in order to cast it but the downside is that they can only use Origin Magic.
Soleil seemed to be using the stuffed lion as a magic wand or a medium for spells since mages need them in order to better control spells. Adrian used his Dark Blue Evil Eye on the stuffed lion and he saw a red soul that was on blazing like a very little sun. When Adrian observed it more in depth, the red soul became afraid and the fireballs headed toward the Corrupted Elementals reduced in power.
