Simon was surprised that my attack had landed and caused damage, and he asked, "W-What happened?"
"He is using Ruah..." Aurora muttered, clearly dumbfounded.
Elona was also surprised and asked, "R-Ruah? How?"
Ignoring their questions, I focused my attention on the circle of fire surrounding the scarred man. His body radiated intense heat and energy, fueled by the destructive power of sunfire that could incinerate anything in its path. I, on the other hand, only had my Ruah energy, which was powerful but difficult for a beginner like me to control.
Without warning, he unleashed a wave of sunfire in my direction, forcing me to dodge out of the way while feeling the heat singe my skin.
"F*ck!"
But I refused to back down and summoned my Ruah energy to create a protective barrier that absorbed the worst of the sunfire's impact.
