Nemean and Bastion looked at each other in confusion after receiving identical notifications. The notification resulted from Kieran's actions, but they didn't understand what it meant due to the vague wording.
"What is an Infernal Cleansing?" Bastion wondered.
Even Kieran was at a loss as his eyebrows furrowed.
Bastion went on to explain the current situation. "The system revealed that some of your Mana assimilated with my Mana paths and performed an Infernal Cleansing."
"What are the effects?" Kieran asked.
Bastion took a few moments to test for any changes before coming across a startling truth. "My Mana Flow feels at least 30% faster than before!"
Questions filled Kieran's mind as the results similarly stupefied him. 'A cleansing? A cleansing is required to awaken, so it has little use to us now. But, why does my Mana carry that property?'
Although Kieran had questions, the answer was difficult to ascertain.Β
