Not everyone was willing to go immediately to the next stage; some wanted to test out the new weapons to their fullest potential first, but I saw it as a waste of time. So long as they did their job, they were going to be fine. A shield only matters if it can block attacks; armor is only useful if it can withstand attacks; and a sword is only useful if it can cut through our enemies. Anything more was just a bonus.
"Gale, give up the shield to Forren." I said as we were all preparing ourselves. Since Satsui had made some more adjustments to Satsui's armor, he decided to wear it once more. Tsuitame, once geared up properly, summoned his armor and his giant sword.
The two mages took their magical staffs. Folarin's magical staff looked like three long snakes with their long bodies intertwined with one another, with dragon heads, each one biting on a mass of odd energy; it felt like mana but didn't feel quite like it.
