''You only saw it now because your body has finally assimilated the girl's elements,'' Nyx explained to the confused Alex, and he could immediately connect the dots.
''I see. So it means I can use those elements, right?" Alex asked with his eyes threatening to burst into flame; he was so excited that Nyx had to put some distance between them, afraid that his current state might be contagious.
Nyx's lips curved upward ever slightly to form a grin as she declared.
''Yes and no!"
Alex, who was about to jump and cry with joy, was frozen in place.
It took him a few minutes to come back to his sense. He heaved a long sigh.
''Do explain.'' He asked her.
Nyx nodded, but instead of explaining directly with words, she asked him to do something.
''Trying using the surrounding wind to boost your speed temporarily.'' She said, and Alex immediately gathered the wind under his feet and shot forward like a rocket.
