A silver streak of light shot towards the Marsh Stalker that was entangled with Catherine, but just before it managed to hit the Stalker's defensive net of tentacles, it swerved sideways, revealing its rear. Behind Nellie's phantom was Pannis, shadow-like, borrowing the airstream created by Nellie's air-burst to accelerate continuously, almost keeping pace with her. Pannis was encompassed by a soft green glow - an effect of wind-attribute magic used for speed. Over a century ago, when they wandered through the Yarran World together, they often cooperated in this way. However, back then, during Nellie's charge, Pannis often held her hand to leverage her strength to maximize his speed. But now, he couldn't touch Nellie's phantom and couldn't recreate their former pattern of cooperation. Therefore, Pannis had to adopt the current method of using the airstream to boost his own speed.
