The five guardians were collectively stunned by the sight of the white wolf bursting out into the open, as they had not expected to encounter such a formidable and ferocious beast there.
"Who are you people?" demanded Randall with a questioning frown.
He could sense a certain familiarity about those five individuals' auras, but he was unable to figure out exactly who they might be there and then. With his powers now utterly depleted after transferring them onto Stefanie and Melissa in their entirety, he was not able to activate his spiritual sense to process a probe either.
"Randall Deraegan?" one of the five suddenly blurted, and after he did, he reflexively put a hand to his mouth as though he had misspoken.
Randall's eyes lit up as that clued him in straightaway. Hence, he said, "So, the guardians from the Deraegans have arrived. No wonder your auras seemed so familiar."
