Ned was astonished by the fire mage's precise control of her body, or more like Moloatiss's control over her.
She dodged an attack and at the same time threw a considerable amount of fire magic for those who get too close to her. She was a gold rank hunter, but it seemed that the parasite sucking her back wasn't just a parasite after all. There was a difference as to how the parasite stuck behind its host. The normal parasites Ned saw were not throbbing of different colors, unlike the new one. And it wasn't just sucking, the parasite seemed to recycle the mana and gave it back to its host, making her stronger, and able to battle four experienced hunters at once. One being Gold rank hunter.
