The photographers and fans pressed in closer as their cameras flashed like tiny explosions in Brigid's face.
Their excitement was so dense.
"Miss Psyche! Over here!"
"Can we get a shot of you holding this plushie? It'll be a big seller in the market!"
"Smile, please! No, wait—look more heroic!"
Brigid's breathing quickened as her hands nervously fidgeted at her sides.
A sharp poke in her lower back made her freeze.
Turning slightly, she realized it was the lens of a camera, shoved uncomfortably close.
Her body acted on instinct.
『I don't want these men so close to me──ARGH!』
A translucent green sphere shimmered into existence around her to gently push the crowd back without knocking anyone over. The barrier expanded slowly and created some much-needed breathing room.
The fans gasped in awe.
"Whoa! Did she just use her powers?"
"That's amazing!"
