The moment Kyle's body emerged from the dark portal, he tried to float mid-air. But his eyes widened in disbelief when the mana within his body refused to budge. In an instant, he lost his balance and tumbled down the stairway.
He let out a painful hiss and rubbed his back.
"What the heck!?"
After him, Bia flew out from the portal. Her eyes trailed downward, landing on the little body sprawling at the edge of the stairway.
She hurriedly closed the distance and circled above Kyle with concerned eyes.
-'Why are you lying on the ground?'
Kyle closed his eyes and moved his hand to massage his temples but the oversized sleeves made it impossible for him to reach his head.
He stared at her with blank eyes.
"Just because I wanted to."
Haylee's big frame stepped out from the portal with three round glowing transparent shields floating around him. As if waiting for him to appear, Kyle hurriedly dragged his clothes and stood up.
